But in the Japanese version, Ichigo sounds, well, like he should: grumpy, indifferent, tough-sounding but really a caring guy on the inside, etc. Well, I guess that's the best they can do...let's all just pray for the DVD version instead.

Lol. Why they got him, I'm not sure, but people tell me that he has the voice range to pull it off. Even though I've never seen Wolf's Rain, he was Kiba and apparently the guy was suppose to be an Emo or something like that. "shrugs" When I first found out about JYB as Ichigo, I was quite shocked, but when I thought about it, and reread the manga, he actually does fit. (Judging from certain reactions.) And besides, there's not really anyone else I can think about that can actually fill that role. (Even though I was thinking about Justin Cook getting that role, but then again.....) It's also easy on the ears compared to Naruto's dub. (At the moment anyway.) Can't really judge from a 30 sec clip right? Too bad though, I have to wait till next Saturday to actually catch it... >_>
