Have you ever noticed that the voices of popular characters in anime movies and TV shows don’t match their original character’s voices? You might be wondering if this is the case in Joey, Galactic Emperor, or Gotcha Force. The answer to this question may surprise you. Thankfully, there are ways to fix this problem. In this article, I’ll outline some methods for identifying phony voices and correcting them.

Yami Marik
Yami Marik’s anime dubbles are not the only examples of fake diction. Throughout the anime, the main characters have a lot of fun with their idiosyncrasies, such as using “c” instead of “a” and ignoring punctuation and capitalization. Despite all the attention to detail, there are some episodes where the dub is downright fake, especially the ones involving pirates.
Joey
Many anime fans have complained that the voices in dubs sound fake, and rightly so. The problem lies in the cultural and linguistic differences that make anime hard to translate properly. In addition to that, the voices of most anime characters don’t match the characters’ actual names, making the anime seem more fake than authentic. Many anime voice actors are fluent in both Japanese and English, but their pronunciations are often off, which makes the dubs sound less than authentic.
Galactic Emperor
You’ve probably wondered why the voice acting in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back or The Last Jedi (both anime series) sound so fake. Perhaps you can’t follow the dialogue in the Japanese version or can’t understand what is being said. Maybe you’ve never watched an anime series before and wonder why the dubs sound so fake. Then you realize the problem: some Japanese animation has bad dubs. This is because of the censorship rules in the West, which means they have to remove some of the original material to make the dubs sound more natural. There are also examples of actors who overdo it, or whose voices don’t match the characters’ personalities.
Galactic Emperor’s voice sounds like a boy on helium
The Galactic Empire’s shrill voice is reminiscent of the voices of boys who’ve grown up in a cave. Morty has a boyish voice, and the Galactic Emperor’s is an even shriller version. Morty’s voice is a blend of shrillness and high pitch. Morty has a shrill voice that makes him a surprisingly likable character in Star Wars.
Oblivion’s script sounds like it was Babelfished from another language
It’s a sad day for audiophiles when a game’s script sounds as though it was “Babelfished” from another language. The voice acting is good, but not stellar. The Imperial male voice sounds exaggerated and cheesy, while the Redguard female sounds fresh and untried. Oblivion’s French dub, on the other hand, features only one actor performing the voices of Khajit males and Argonian females, and a single voice actor doing the same characters’ voices for Captain Haddock.
Oblivion’s voice acting is cheesy and exaggerated
The voice acting in Oblivion is bad. Even though Todd Howard is a god-like actor, I have yet to hear a Skyrim imitator mimic his abilities. The worst part is that the lines are read out of alphabetical order, so the actors don’t even know what they are saying. The voice acting in Oblivion is a big part of the comedy.
