While I still haven't gotten around to watching Darling in the Franxx yet, it's pretty cool that she's voicing Zero Two, now that's an interesting change of pace for Tia and her usual roles.

Also cool that she recently joined the cast of My Hero Academia Season 3 as Tomoko Shiretoko/Ragdoll.

Happy Birthday Tia Ballard!

@Swagmaster914 oh yah and to who ever can guess my real age I will praise for it :)

@Swagmaster914

I'll take a stab and say, maybe, 23?

@MegaMike1990 Woah seriously?! Is it me, or the Funimation Family, the voice actors I mean, joining up with Sentai? First Jaime Marchi joined Sentai to do voice work for Brynhildr in the Darkness, then Jad Saxton also joined to do a role in Trinity Seven, now Tia Ballard? In both of my favorite anime?!

@TDarioF96

Tia was actually on a Sentai anime before when she recorded for a role on Little Busters! She was also on Log Horizon and its second season according to its ANN page. Finally, these roles I thought up were just ideas of what anime for Sentai she could be in next and possible roles for her. Never can tell though.

'Kay, you know what? Delete this comment.

@lazydude500 I think the first Dallas VA to work on a Houston dub was Stephanie Nadolny who was the voice of kid goku.

@SonofWat2
But that was for ADV Films a "different" company :P

And Now Congrats on reaching a hundred roles Tia!

Seriously the range you have continue to astonish and amaze me.

I think one of the most impressive roles of hers to date is as Elizabeth Mably in the Freezing series, despite it being one of my least favourite series I've seen thus far, she's such a major radical departure from all of her other more cute sounding roles, she uses this much lower and more alluring sounding voice I had not heard her use before and man does she sound amazing. Truly one of the few aspects I really loved about Freezing.

I also loved her performances as Ticy Phenyl, Kusano, Maaya Awatsuki, and Aligura.

Seriously she's gotta be one of my favourites in the FUNimation talent pool, she has some of the most impressive unexpected range and that's awesome.

I'd love to hear more of her lower registry be used more often in the future.

Happy Birthday Tia Ballard!

@Autovolt I think it just takes time to break the typecasts that are set for certain VA's I mean look at Monica Rial, she was the token high pitched cutesy voice for ages until younger actresses started taking those roles instead. But now she's able to be cast in a variety of different roles and easily make them sound distinct, she's amazing at that and I'm sure Tia is just as good and will eventually get more of those roles that showcase her range in the future. There's always gonna be new female VA's coming in to dubbing anime that take those cute roles etc.

@iNinja101 Heck, the Japanese voice actor Rie Kugimiya also voices Happy and Mizore in the JP version.
