<<IMO, Kappei Yamaguchi does a _great_ job of really capturing the
arrogance and
cockiness in Ranma.  These aspects are not well rendered by Miss Strange
as her
voice sounds a little forced and unnatural at times, but she also
captures his more honest and insecure-about-love side well.>>

      Kappei also captures Ranma's 'soft side'  pretty well...  Maybe not
as well as Sarah Strange, but Kappei does a good job...

<That's seems to be a plausible conclusion. Maybe it's the gender thing
that makes the difference concerining cockiness and arrogance, though.>

      I dunno, maybe...  Venus Terzo has her own type of cockiness and
arrogance for onna-Ranma, so I don't think it's the gender thing that
makes it easier or whatever..

<I'm not really surprised one may think Sarah Strange sounds a little
forced. She's a woman that's supposed to be talking like a man. Even the
best actors can't really pull something like that off all that well, and
Sarah does a great job of it. There are probably a lot of Ranma fans out
there that thought she was a guy when they first heard her. Admit it,
guys.  ^_^>

     You mean Sarah is a woman!?!?!  ^_^ J/K  Yeah just hearing her
interpretation of Ranma  it is difficult to say that she was anything but
a guy.  But I know of a couple very obscure actors that are very good at
voicing in the opposite gender.  None that are as 'famous' as Sarah
Strange, though.

<Well, maybe. I think she has an even more normal voice in that X-files
ep she was in. The one episode I don't watch and it's the one with her in
it.  Damn. :p> 

     I'm feeling the same way I must've missed that one, too...  Or maybe
I did see it and didn't recognize the voice... Does anyone remember the
plot of that ep?  Maybe we could get that ep for the Chicago
"Ranma-rama", eh Frank? ^_^

<Has anyone seen it? This way we could get an appoximation of what her
normal voice sounds like...>

     I must've missed that ep, too...  But there's now way I'm gonna let
myself miss tomorrow's ep...

<<Then again those of us who subscribed to Channel 53 did get Ranma for a
few days...^_^>>

<Ahhh, be quiet. ^_^>

     Yeah there are some of us that don't have cable...
