Negima! English Dub / Japanese Dub Voice Comparison: Part 5

Alright, here are the next five lovely ladies for your viewing pleasure! I think the whole Fuka/Fumika twins with different voice actresses was a bit redundant (either that or the English version was just cheap).

BTW, if you're wondering why there's FIVE clips for each girl in this video, it's because out of the five shown, two of them are my absolute favorites! Heck, they practically had their own episodes! (Yeah, I know I'm being a bit biased, but at least there's enough material to know what they sound like, right?) Anyways, enjoy!

Kimiko Koyama (Fuka Narutaki)
Alison Viktorin (Fuka Narutaki)

Mari Kanou (Fumika Narutaki)
Alison Viktorin (Fumika Narutaki)

Mai Kadowaki (Satomi Hakase)
Jayme Westman (Satomi Hakase)

Yumi Shimura (Chisame Hasegawa)
Caitlin Glass (Chisame Hasegawa)

Yuki Matsuoka (Evangeline A.K. McDowell)
Laura Bailey (Evangeline A.K. McDowell)

So, who do you think fits better?

BTW, I know someone's going to ask so I'm going to answer right now:

1. I did not download any of these clips! I bought and own all 6 U.S. DVD releases! ($120 @ Best Buy)

2. Just because I own the English Dub DVDs, I WILL NOT and CAN NOT upload any of the episodes. I've seen what happens to people who do and I'm not willing to take that risk.

One thing that bugs me about English dubs is the tendency for female VAs to try and match the pitch of their Japanese counterparts, despite the fact that English tends to be spoken at a much lower pitch. Yet here...not so much. I think I like this dub.

Fuuka - English; more natural-sounding voice.

Fumika - Same.

Satomi - Japanese. English VA did the pitch-matching thing. Yikes.

Chisame - English by a *%#@ing MILE. Matches her perfectly.

Evangeline - English. Holy shit, she's PERFECT.

As much as I love Eva's English voice there's no excuse for 'harven't'. Nobody is posh enough to pronounce haven't like that.

Laura Bailey's british accent is excellent! XD

[Quinton111100]

Caitlin Glass and Laura Bailey for the win!!

[BlahBlahBadoodle]

Bailey is really cool! Evangeline can only sound right with an English accent, I'll admit.

[BlahBlahBadoodle]

Chisame can really get her voice to shift in both English and Japanese. ^^

Love the twins' English VA. Glass, Bailey, Christian, so many of my favorite female VAs.
