Would anyone know of a better voice cast?


Does anyone else get bothered from this series because of the questionable voice cast? I sure have. I mean, I'm not saying it's bad or anything, but I really can't get comfortable with listening to the voices. Who do you think should be the voices for this series instead.

I'd do a list, but it's hard to think of any good substitutes for now, and I'd hate for people to complain about what I'd suggest.

So does anyone have anything they'd like to share of what might make the audio more enjoyable to sit right through?

No idea, really. 4Kids does a pretty terrible job choosing voice actors, although King Dedede's voice amuses me.

There are original subbed Japanese episodes on the 'net... I think they might be on YouTube now. I'm sure you'll find that they have much better voices. :P

Yeah, the voices freak me out, not because I think it was miscast, but because the random freakin' accents are so distracting! I mean, the hamster is Australian, Dedede sounds like the Cajun guy from the Zatarain's commercials (Jambalaya! Dirty rice with a side a' KIRBEH! OH YEAH! Zaaatarraaiins!) and that gawd awful Transylvanian disaster that Meta Knight has...
I still love the show after only two viewings, and these little weirdnesses are beginning to become endearing to me, but others may not be so understanding.
And yeah, youtube has very few epis. I've looked twice. The first time I saw only 2 and the last time, I didn't see anything but a video of the American opening titles (ugh).

EDIT: SO apparently Meta Knight's accent is supposed to be Spanish like Zorro... Whatever, it's bad.
