Christine Marie Cabanos

@DisneyAnimefan1995 I've noticed that too. I wonder what happened or changed that's dramatically reduced how much she's cast. She seems to do role reprisals more than new roles when she does get cast now...

@rebelcheese TBH, I mostly see it happening at Bang Zoom! so far, cause as of now she has done the following BZ! titles after she finished working on "Kill la Kill":

2015: Magi Kingdom of Magic, Aldnoah Zero (2)

2016: Love Live, Gundam: IBO, Erased, Asterisk War (4)

2017 (Now): Sword Art Online the Movie: Ordinal Scale (reprisal), Gundam: IBO Season 2 (reprisal), Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga (reprisal)

I have a hunch it may have to do with several factors:

1. Competition for new roles during the auditions against the likes of some of the other voice actresses that BZ! been aggressively utilizing lately such as Erica Mendez, Erika Harlacher, Erica Lindbeck, Kira Buckland, Brianna Knickerbocker, Xanthe Huynh, Ryan Bartley, Faye Mata and especially Cristina Vee.

2. More voice actors that took the AX Idol competitions and the Adventures in Voice Acting Workshops are rising to the occasion and competing for roles just like the aforementioned voice actresses I put above.

Now personally it isn't limited to Christine Cabanos, but also several other voice actors are also being affected and getting less anime roles at BZ!, Johnny Yong Bosch, Stephanie Sheh, Steve Cannon, Grant George, Todd Haberkorn, Karen Strassman, Sarah Anne Williams, and to a lesser extent Patrick Seitz.

But the good news is is that Christine M. Cabanos is still gaining more anime voice work, but for the most part it's been mainly the Netflix anime series dubbed at SDI Media/Spliced Bread Prod. and so far she's been in "Kuromukuro", "Blame!", "In This Corner of the World" and more recently "ID-0".

@DisneyAnimefan1995 Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if the studio (considering the ompetition) would decide to in a year or two stop putting the AX Idol auditions, especially since the competition is getting pretty aggresive and seems to be somewhat biased to and against certain actors. I mean, there are people who competed since 2013 and won the AX Idol and you would be amazed to see that hardly anyone who won that year was seen in a major or minor role in this site five years from 2013.What happened to Adin Rudd or Alan Lee, or anyone who did minor roles but then they're gone? It doesn't seem fair that the studio seems to favor certain actors.

Well, that's just my opinion. I want you people to mull it over and see what I'm getting at.

I'm glad that if there was one person Sentai Filmworks was able to bring back for the second season dub of Squid Girl when going all in with a new in house dub cast, it was keeping Christine Marie Carbanos as Squid Girl.

Also it's an interesting casting Christine Marie Carbanos as Felt in the Re:Zero dub, not who I would've personally imagined but still an excellent choice nonetheless.

I also enjoyed her performance as Mistress 9 in Sailor Moon, great example of playing against type for her, I hope Christine gets more opportunities to play roles like her more often in the future.

Happy Birthday Christine Marie Carbanos!

@Travaughn13 I Mistakenly wrote Cristina Vee instead of Christine Marie Cabanos. Sorry.

@Unknownsage13 Speaking of Fire Emblem, I hope Nintendo has the guts to allow Cup of Tea Productions to hire her as Midoriko in Fire Emblem Fates.

@Dark Paladin X She'd be perfect for Midoriko.

@TheAdapter Nah bro, I do believe you are talking about Bryce Papenbrook

@rinnachi lol, ya your not wrong.

@DisneyAnimefan1995 Hope you give me a Shout Out soon.

@Autovolt I know right. I would say they are considered to be the Anime counterparts to Tara Strong and Grey Delisle, as like Cristina Vee and Christine Marie Cabanos, both Tara and Grey are friends in real life and also have worked together in the same voice over projects they are in.

But that's just me.

@DisneyAnimefan1995 You know what, that's actually a pretty great comparison.

They really do seem like the best of friends based on what I've seen from their Twitter accounts.
