*sigh* this made me remember the big diference on how americans treats their seiyuu's in comparison to the japanese people..

in japan their stars

while in america they don't care ... the jap anime seiyuus in particular

I rmembered this because of what happened to Xenosaga 2 and the change of voices that was made... that really made me very sad T_T

@ clonezero:
Oh, so you're not the only one ranting about that. Xenosaga II just killed the Xenosaga series, it's nothing compared to the first one since the guy who made it left before the sequel was made.

In japan, there are even vocational schools offering voice
acting courses for those aspiring to become seiyuus.

They even have radio dramas here (mostly side stories of
existing anime titles).
Even some of them become singers if they became famous
enough (if they can sing of course).

@Goat
I know that ... but xenosaga 3 redeemed the series ... sigh why did those dang bussinessmen rushed xenosaga 2 /pif such a pity
