Does anyone feel the dub was miscast?

I think most of the voices are fine. I don't mind Haruhi's, but I feel Vic was NOT meant for this role. I like Vic. I think he's a good VA, I just don't think he has a very bishounnen or believable voice for that role. I think he forced his voice a bit too much for the "suave" voice that Tamaki has. I dunno. Does anyone have the same problem?

The Japanese version DEFINITELY does not have this problem, IMO. It was greatly cast and I loved how they managed to get Maaya Sakamoto to play a boy-ish voice but sound feminine when they needed it.

I love Vic as Tamaki. Sorry but I just do.

God invented boobs to make men happy, but Adam pissed him off so he attached them to women.

Sorry but i love the dub cast especially J.Micheal Tatum as Kyoya. There version of "Sakura's kiss" though was pretty bad lol.

Tamaki did sound a bit odd, but it was VERY well acted. Kaoru has an odd voice, I thought, but it became quite sweet and I started to like him immensely.

Kyoya, though. Tatum NAILED it. Loved his dub, thought he was wonderfully understated in all the right moments, but when the emotion needed to leak through? Lovely.
