FMA Casting! :O
Taken from AnimeNewsNetwork again, haha.
Actually, I think I'll put it under a cut. Not that there are spoilers but...!
So, the ones that are the same:
Romi Paku as Edward Elric
Rie Kugimiya as Alphonse Elric
Kenji Utsumi as Alex Louis Armstrong
Keiji Fujiwara as Maes Hughes
Hidekatsu Shibata as King Bradley
The ones that are different:
Megumi Takamoto as Winry Rockbell
Shinichiro Miki as Roy Mustang
Fumiko Orikasa as Riza Hawkeye
Yuji Ueda as Jean Havoc
Kenji Hamada as Vato Falman
Kaori Nazuka as Maria Ross
Kenta Miyake as Scar
Kikuko Inoue as Lust
Tetsu Shiratori as Gluttony
Minami Takayama as Envy
Hiroyuki Yoshino as Kimblee
^_^() Yeah, pretty much most of them. I'm gonna watch this version in Japanese, but Hughes has the same VA as Shuu-chan from Honey & Clover and...! *begins to weep*
I do recognise voice actors I like there though! Shinichiro Miki (Allen from Escaflowne, Kurz Webber from FMP), Yuji Ueda (Sanosuke from Ruruouni Kenshin, Morita from Honey & Clover), Minami Takayama (Nabiki from Ranma!), Kenji Hamada (NOMIYAAAAA <3) and one of my all time favourites even though I have no idea who his character in this will be Kouichi Yamadera (Spike Spiegel, Ryoga, Romaiya-senpai)! I am quite intriuged that Kasumi nee-chan will be playing Lust! Talk about messing with your mind! There are quite a few Ranma/HachiKuro alumni here! Now all I need is for Tomokazu Seki to turn up. Only cos I fangirl him quite madly.
I haven't actually watched the Japanese version of the first series, so this probably won't affect me. I really wanted to, but watching the series once through crushed my soul, I couldn't do it again! XD
