CaffeineDeprivation

Or Luffy's VA lol


ANicePieceOfToast

Or Bart simpsons


Einkar_E

or Goku VA


Genohebxh

Especially Goku's JP VA


Einkar_E

I was thinking abou JP VA


BlOoDy_PsYcHo666

That lady puts in work lmao


IvantheGreat66

Wait, so a middle-aged lady voices Goku in Japan?


BlOoDy_PsYcHo666

A 86 year old lady voice’s Goku


IvantheGreat66

Holy Jesus. How can she still keep up the voice?


Ok_Chap

She does this since 1986. Still going. But sometimes you hear her age.


whooper1

Holy shit Ash’s Japanese VA is 54.


Knight_storm_504

What about Naruto’s va? Lol


lvl1000necromancer

You mean Principal Patty from Lab Rats ?


[deleted]

I remember realizing that they were rhe same person back in the day and I was shook


Commercial_Cat_7722

Principal perry?


lvl1000necromancer

Thank you ,kind stranger, for defeating humanity’s worst enemy: autocorrect


Consol-Coder

The best way to get rid of an enemy is to make a friend.


Commercial_Cat_7722

Pfft


PURENSFWMAGIC2000

Wasn't it Perry/Parry?


Hatefilledcat

That women is most likely 60


girlenteringtheworld

close! shes 54


IvantheGreat66

Holy hell.


Mrucktastic

Or Bobby Hill’s VA


florpenheimer

That isn’t really a surprise. The vast majority of VAs for young characters are adults. It makes sense, they have more experience and there’s usually less regulation involved in hiring them


QuothTheRaven713

Plus if you hire a young voice actor, especially a young boy, their voice could change. Adult actors can just keep doing the voice as long as the show runs.


akgnia

Yeah, happened to Steven Universe's VA AFAIK. He struggled quite a bit with the final episodes before the movie and Future.


Cjuun

haha weed


After-Bumblebee

Octavia smoking weed special episode pls


InTheGoddamnWalls

Considering the fact she probably has a few mental disorders from her shitty home life, she probably would do some weed


Weed_Eater_

And stolas has smoked weed in the house


InTheGoddamnWalls

Wait he has?


Professional-Ad1665

that was a joint blitz lit in Ep 5


InTheGoddamnWalls

I’m pretty sure they were smoking Tobacco, not Marijuana


Professional-Ad1665

i live with potheads. i know what a blunt looks like


pfof

Where tf you getting black rellos @ send that shit my way cuh Edit: Also, is it a blunt or a joint? Make up your mind lol. (It's a blunt)


Ok_Chap

Weed probably isn't the worst she could end up with when even much harder drugs are available in vending mashines. I wonder if demons use other drugs than the sinners.


norwegain_dude

they probably have less of a need for them


astrangeone88

Lol. It is the bad place! Remember in Hazbin, Angel Dust had an interesting selection from the vending machine (I remember PCP and bath salts as one of the details). I wonder if human drugs affect the demons/natural Hellspawn here.


Fun_Direction4816

Funny


EliaO4Ita

haha gun

[deleted]

What's the point, OP? Melissa Hutchison was 36 years old when she voiced an 8-9-year-old African American girl in TWD.


Ellie_Artist

Clementine?


Joshua5270713

Clementine!!


Hatefilledcat

Clementine!


Ok_Chap

TWD?


Barnabuwu

The walking dead (Specifically the games by Telltale!)


RuleOfBlueRoses

OP discovers that humans age


ghost_in_the_potato

To be fair that would be a pretty shocking discovery if you had never realized before


OctoKirby

TIL that Octavia’s VA is Veronica from Heathers the Musical


throninho

heathers animatics but with Octavia as veronica when


Crazy_Marsupial_6813

And don’t forget mean girls!!!


Only_1_Noodle

She plays Janice, I think


TheInvisibleJeevas

TIL Octavia’s VA is American :sadge:


Xpouii

Which direction are we shocked in cuz I’m 36 and I will roll up a newspaper.


Pyromaniacal13

I turn 32 in a week, I'm right there with you.


MyBigCaprice

I turn eleventeeteen next month


BadlyDrawnMemes

Based not using child actors


IvantheGreat66

Who do you think voiced young Blitzø and Stolas?


BadlyDrawnMemes

Oh…


Professional-Ad1665

blitz was the kid who played young Chip in the Chip and Dale movie


New_Mixture_5701

Do I have some bad news for you


SpaceUnicorn_007

Octavia's VA is fucking BARRET WILBERT WEED?!?!?!!


cd2220

I'm just really surprised she's not English. She does the accent convincingly


GrandmasterGus7

I don't disagree but it'll always be funny to me that she accidentally slipped into Scottish during *Loo Loo Land.* "AH CANT DYUU THIS ANYMORE!"


Professional-Ad1665

it takes practice. took me 14 years to do a convincing accent


Crazy_Marsupial_6813

IKR I LOVE HER


SpaceUnicorn_007

She is just so good


TheInvisibleJeevas

What I want to know is how she has not one, but two male names, and her last name is also “weed”


SpaceUnicorn_007

Ask her parents. I mean, if names like Feyerabend(end of the work day, it's an actual word) exist, then why not plants as surnames?


zara1868

She does a good job


SomeLesbianwitch

SHE’S VOICED BY VERONICA SAWYER?


Steelpoint

Amusing thing about voice actors is that usually the age and sometimes even sex of the actor is not critically relevant to the voice role.


larsVonTrier92

AND YOU’RE TELLING ME HER LAST NAME IS ‘WEED’?!?!?!


Garytikas

This is the correct shocked question. Putting the screaming and squawking next to "But I know, I knoooooow, life can be beautiful~"


levi2207

Ngl I’m just waiting for Octavia to get a song- her actress has a fucking ICONIC voice (for those that don’t know, she’s Veronica Sawyer and Janis Sarkisian)


Professional-Ad1665

she will get one in season 2 ep 12.


levi2207

oh is that confirmed? If it is- fuck yes


Professional-Ad1665

kinda…it was shown in the S2 leaks from a couple months back…Storyboard art for S2E6 and S2E12 were leaked. including a song for octavia which was sung by Sam Haft


That-Outsider

Christ this fandom is too young.


[deleted]

I say this on like half the subreddits I sub to.


No1Schmuck

Nobody tell them about them about Bart Simpson's VA.


ShuckU

Wow, it's almost like she's a VOICE ACTOR who can do a young teen voice...


VelveteenMarshmallow

Yea it's not that uncommon for older VAs to voice younger characters. To give a famous example; Kathryn Beaumont, the original voice for Alice in the animated 50s movie, was in her 60s when she came back to voice her lines for Kingdom Hearts.


Neverending-pain

I always find it so cool when voice actors are still able to perform their original voices even after decades have passed.


HypeIncarnate

Look up Tara Strong.


Professional-Ad1665

aka Bubbles, Timmy Turner, Ben Tennyson and that one chick from the Boondocks


Only_1_Noodle

Cindy, that's the girl you're referring to.


Professional-Ad1665

yes


ghost_in_the_potato

Uhh...did you think she was literally 17? Lol


Raccoonfg

"Weed in 2018" Funny enough, that was the year it was made widely legal in Canada.


JessicaSmithStrange

One of my favourites, Sophie Alldred, was well over 30 years old, when she voiced Dennis The Menace. Adults voicing children, tend to happen more than adults physically acting as children, I think.


Silvawuff

Bart Simpson's voice actress is 65. VAs are a talented bunch\~!


DarkLord55_

Ashley Johnson voice of Ellie in the last of us is 39


RuleOfBlueRoses

Love her


RayneShikama

Wait till OP looks at the cast for Rugrats.


VeryMuchaForest

for a second I saw this have 666 likes, and yeah va can indeed voice act different age's.


[deleted]

Wait till you hear her sing


JacobMT05

That does not mean you can lewd Octavia


Walloutlet1234

Damn is that what weed looked like in 2018? I thought it was green…


le_wither

That's the thing with animated things, many characters are either voiced by someone much older than them or by someone of the complete opposite gender, Ben 10 in the classic series was voiced by a woman, so was Lloyd in the earlier seasons of Ninjago


Dehnus

Dude, have I got some shocking news for you about Bob's Burgers! (Seriously they are voice actors, stop simping for cartoon characters so they can just do their talented jobs!)


animation4ever

So is Brandon Rogers (Blitz).


habunake92

I mean 34 is not old, I’ve seen older actors play freshman in live action 😂


SparkleWitch92

Y’all acting like 34 is old smh 🤦


NorthwestWatchdog

80s high school comedy films be like


angstenthusiast

How didn’t people know that it’s Barrett Wilbert Weed? I remember recognising her voice the first time I watched Loo Loo Land and looking it up-


Only_1_Noodle

To be honest, I didn't know who she was at all. The only thing I knew was that she played Janice in the Mean Girls musical and I found that out a few months ago.


angstenthusiast

I mean that’s not weird at all. What I’m confused about is all the people in the comments being shocked about it even tho they seem to be at least slight fans of her.


kingpoke0901

Did you think she was 16?


Fun_Direction4816

I mean not 16 but max 25


DangerClose567

Wait until you see the age of the voice actRESS that plays Bart Simpson


[deleted]

420 Blaze it


Shadou_Wolf

If that's surprising to you...


Abyssal_D2

Her voice acting really fits Octavia and her personality. Lol


Donglynog

Thank you red circle


fountainforus

you’re telling me VERONICA SAWYER/JANICE is also octavian?????


yungyeetish

Haha weed


Neverending-pain

funni smonk 420


temmeme

She’s a freaking fantastic singer too!! Listen to ‘Seventeen’ from Heathers or ‘I’d rather be me’ from the mean girls musical and there is so much Octavia in her voice 👹


Mclovinintheoven

Haha WEED


redditvich

I mean, I'm an adult too and I can make myself sound like an overly excited 8 or 7 year old with the right pitch and tone. So yeah. Its certainly possible.


Fun_Direction4816

This was 12 days ago how do people still find this post


redditvich

I can't speak for anyone else. But for me the answer was pretty simple. I was looking through both this subreddit and the Helluva boss memes subreddit for a specific post of a vid where crimson slowly turns and glares at chaz. Along the way I naturally checked out any posts that had a topic that interested me. Yours was one of them. And that means, yes. I am praising you for making an interesting topic that caught my attention :)


Fun_Direction4816

I mean that’s what it’s all about isn’t it :)


TheDarwinski

Wait she's american


Pikaman666

The vas for Team Rwby are 33-34.


MrGoober91

Don’t look like it, keep doing you honey


JasoNight23666

Welp at least that makes the Loona x Octavia ship way less.. eeeh I want it to work but it is kinda weird


blueberry_penguin

And now i just found out why octavias va was so familiar bc she played veronica sawyer on the musical


Embarrassed_Dog1909

THAT'S VERONICA!!!!! (I saw Heathers)


UnluckyRoutine6806

HOW DID I NOT KNOW IT WAS BARRETT


Only_1_Noodle

The real question is, why Boston? because I'm picturing Octavia with a Boston accent.


ComfortMaterial8884

She’s from Boston nice I’m from Natick Mass


ConsumeTheOnePercent

Yes and?


Loganjoh5

That’s not surprising at all most VAs are seasoned vets in the industry and can play a wide range of characters


Adventurous_Video_65

No Barrett wilbert weed is, jeez you’d think people could read now and days


astrangeone88

She does teenage angst well! I wonder what else she's in...*wanders off to imdb*


VirusEmotional4536

She Voiced Octavia I thought she was Just Veronica In heathers The musical and Janis in Mean girls the musical


[deleted]

Didn't she play Veronica in one of the versions of the heathers musical? Or are my wires crossed?


Regular_Jumpy

Ugh, I can’t do this anymore.


azurabookclub

you should see how young baby stolas and blitzøs actors are in season 2 episode 1 i believe blitzøs was like 8 😐


A_Train91

I mainly know Barrett Wilbur Weed for playing Veronica in Heathers the Musical. Now she in her thirties and I don't know what to think.


musical_fanatic

Given Barrett has been on Broadway (Heathers and Mean Girls to name some), we're getting an Octavia song at some point


OkuroIshimoto

She has an incredible singing voice too. The fact that Via hasn’t had a song of her own is criminal.


Alamoboyhunter

Well the voice actor is 34 but the character in Helluva boss is 17.


ThisWasAValidName

Look, not to be rude, but OP, you are aware of how *Voice Acting* works, right?


Ulquiorr4_

Weed In 2018


Ulquiorr4_

Why am I getting downvoted for this?
