A few articles ago we commented on the fact that the voice actress Ayane Sakura had been the original voice of the five quintuplets of the franchise of Gotoubun no Hanayome (The Quintessential Quintuplets), especially in the promotional materials for the manga, before the production finally assigned a different voice actress for each of the sisters, giving Ayane Sakura the role of Yotsuba Nakano.
But did you know that this is not the only time this has happened? For example, we all know that Sumire Uesaka is the voice of Hayase Nagatoro in the franchise Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san (Don’t Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro), but, originally it wasn’t her. Again, in the promotional materials for the original manga, her voice was given by Tomoyo Kurosawarecognized for roles like Kumiko Oumae in Hibike! Euphonium y Phosphophyllite in Houseki no Kuni.
On the other hand, connoisseurs of Fate/Grand Orderin any of its aspects, know that Rie Takahashi is the assigned voice of Mash Kyrielightbut it also turns out that she was not the first to give her a voice. Laugh Tanedarecognized by roles like Ai Mizuno en Zombieland Saga and Mirai Kuriyama in Kyoukai no Kanata, was the one who was in charge of giving him a voice in the first versions of the franchise, where a much more mature voice can be noticed.
The recent premiere of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean brought with it the introduction of Jolyne Cujoh and the introduction of the voice actress Hey Fairouz as the one in charge of giving it life in the anime adaptation. But then once more, she hadn’t been the original. turns out Miyuki Sawashirorecognized for roles like Raiden Shogun in Genshin Impact and Kurapika in HUNTER x HUNTERwas the one who lent his voice in previous installments of the franchise, specifically in the video games where the character appeared before the anime.
