Colleen O'Shaughnessey

I really enjoyed Colleen in the Smile Precure/Glitter Force dub, she was a great fit for Akane Hino (Kelsey)/Cure (Glitter) Sunny. If they ever did a uncut, more faithful dub for the series, she'd be even better but as is she did a great job all things considered. Of course this character fits in her usual type of spunkiness that she tends to voice.

I also really loved how her performance in Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin as Artesia Som Deikun/Sayla Mass. I was amazed just how high pitched she could go as a young Artesia, she managed to sound convincing as a child to me. Her Sayla though was very fitting. I'd like to see how she'd voice her once the events of 0079 transpire. Seriously Sunrise still waiting for a re-make of the original Gundam series. It'd be cool to hear the cast of Origin and Unicorn get the chance to voice in a re-make.

And of course it's great that she's reprising as Sora for Digimon Adventure Tri. Despite my grievances with the original dub script, I always did like Colleen in the role of Sora. That was perfect casting.

Happy Birthday Colleen O'Shaughnessy/Villard!

@Troodon2 Why would she? That's where all the money is.

@huzaifa_ahmed I think it has less to do with money, actually.

@Troodon2 What do you think it has to do with?

@huzaifa_ahmed Perhaps it's based in her position, I know she's LA but perhaps where ever she's currently opperating may side closer to the ADR department; or perhaps most casting directors in Western Animation may not even consider casting her.

@Troodon2 Plus with western animation the pay isnt based upon how long you record as opposed to dubbed anime which is based upon timed sessions. Thats why in cartoons (western animation) you have one voice actor doing like up to 20 or so roles for just one show, so im guessing the people dont want to waste money paying somebody else to do a role when that person doing the 20 or so roles is there. If that made sense man lol.

@chaosincarnate She actually kinda sounds ike Kath Soucie when doing it. I think she may have been taking notes from her when they worked together on certain shows.
