Better seiyuu for Sakura
« on: June 08 2005, 04:15 pm »
I've realised in this board that there are some who like Tange Sakura and some who don't. And then there are some who like Sakura's new seiyuu... and some who don't.

So make your pick and let's see which is the most favoured seiyuu.

Me? I'm going with Tange Sakura. She may be squeeky and high-pitched, but it's Sakura... she made Sakura stand out among the lot. She made Sakura unique...

Not to say that Yui Makino's really bad or anything. She's good (although a little bit inexperienced) but I suppose Tange Sakura made a great impression on me on Sakura. Meh... so what do you guys think?

Sakura Tange just IS Sakura to me.
The first time I watched Cardcaptor Sakura I was amazed with her voice.
It was SO different than anything I had heard from an English speaking voice actor.
I guess that's why I can't watch dubs, I've gotten used to the Japanese Seiyuu and expect more than a U.S. voice actor is capable of.

I also love the new Sakura.
I think her voice is very pleasant and sounds like an older Sakura.
I think she's doing very well for all that she has to live up to coming after Sakura Tange.

I don't think it's a fair comparison. Sakura from CCS is not the same character from Tsubasa.  It's not just that their ages (CCS Sakura was much younger), but the direction the story is going.  Also, there could be so many factors that determine why Makino Yui "acts" like that.  The director could be deliberately telling her to speak not too confidently because that's what's appropriate for the character.

Very good observation. Thanks for pointing it out. But to me, I was looking at it pretty much in general (Yeah, I did sound a little too judgemental didn't I? Sorry!) Since I'm seeing it as this 'Who really sounds like Sakura'.

You don't need to apologize for your opinion :)  I totally understood what you meant, but I was also trying to be fair to both seiyuu.  Personally, I would have also wanted to hear Sakura Tange reprise her role, but for whatever reason, Makino Yui got the part.

Sakura Tange's voice is magnificent as Sakura and so is Makino Yui.  Either one fits...but I really don't think we should compare the seiyuu's for TRC right now because sooner or later TRC is gonna get licensed and just imagine the horror of the dubbed voices.  @.@;

I'm voting for Sakura Tange, Yui Horie, or Ayako Kawasumi that would fit for Sakura's voice ^^

Tange Sakura all the way. I'm not saying so because she's a better actress, but the new gal just annoys the Hell out of me! Her first line in the first episode almost made me change chanels (seriously, it's just really annoying!)

I voted for Yui Makino cuz she's new & she can really sing too. Another reason I voted for her is cuz Sakura Tange has no voice range at all.

But the thing is the Tsubasa Sakura is still speaking like a 10 year old! I'm guessing the Tsubasa Sakura is around 15-17. If the voice was dramatically different like, say,  a real teenager voice, then this would be a strange argument.

I did some research & it seems that Yui Makino was a stage actress before she was a seiyuu. That might be part of the reason some of you feel she can't act that well. She's a teenage stage actress. On top of that she's worked with Yoko Kanna like Maaya Sakamoto.

I kinda agree that Yui Makino will be able to sing really well. (Heard she's going to sing for the movie? @.@) But I really liked Tange Sakura's voice... When she sings, I can really imagine Sakura singing. I don't think her singing range is limited. Have you ever heard 'Release my heart'? I thought she sang really well there.

Yui Makino sings Omna Magni from Sousei no Aquarion. Really cute song with lots of Latin.
