Well, Look at Kirk Thornton. He's managed to voice Xiahou Dun from DW4 onward, and I believe Yuri has been voicing Sun Ce since DW5 (although I don't know who voiced him in DW4, but it sounds like a more rowdy Yuri) and they both have retained their roles because they're really good at their jobs :D

I don't think that's all there is to the story. They have notoriously replaced very good voice actors with ones that have fallen short of the mark in both SW and DW. Zhou Yu's DW5 versus his DW5: Empires/XL & WO voice comes to mind. Sun Jian has flopped around so much, I don't even know what to expect anymore.

This is getting rather off topic, but..

I heard Stephen Blum stopped voicing Sun Jian because he was stuck doing work for Square Enix, or something to that effect. Michael Gough stopped voicing Zhou Yu because..actually, I don't know why they didn't re-hire him. He did a great job as Mitsuhide as well..

Wasn't on Mr. Gough's end, that I know of. In an email he said he'd love to voice Yu again. I'm sure he'd do Mitsuhide too. (might actually make me buy another SW game if he did, he is my favorite VA)

Derailing a topic? No no no, we're keeping it warm till LDZ can work things out with Yuri . Yeah... :P

Fro Blum: I've read several places it s pay thing. Union gigs only now and somesuch.
Gough: DUnno.

I've been playing Persona 4 and Yuri's role is just hilarious in it, but the way that he delivers the lines makes it even better.

oh yea this guy voice FFIV and Wild Arms 5 also!! Damn !! He's so good >_>

I wonder when He , Johnny von Basch and Liam O'Brien will voice the same game
Well in Persona 3 he voices the MC and Pharos whilst Liam O Brian voices Akihiko Sanada.

In Persona 4 he voices Yosuke whilst Johhny Yong Bosch voiced P4's MC and Adachi.

Okay I want this done as quickly as possible. Now is a good time to get this done and properly if he, or when, he replies back to me.

If you're online now, fire away the questions! Otherwise I'll muster some up.

Remember KOEI-related only. Thanks.

Woo about time! :P

1. Which character role did you enjoy doing the most? Sun Ce? Zhang He? or both?

2. How were you picked in portraying the role of Sun Ce and Zhang He in the games?

3. If you were asked to voice for another Warriors game, would you?

I can't think of anymore questions so I hope these are good. Yuri is awesome! ;)

Btw, Yuri never voiced Guan Ping... Bryce Papenbrook did who is the son of Bob Papenbrook aka Zhang Fei's original VA.

There are many good questions for Yuri Lowenthal in this thread already, so I just wanted to add to please let him know that many fans like his work on Sun Ce and Zhang He, and hope he will keep voicing them in the next DW games.
Thanks!

Awesome, my previous one is what I want to ask him.

I've heard you are friends with Doug Erholtz. He was the voice actor for Zhang He in Dynasty Warriors 5, but you replaced him and retained your other role as Sun Ce. Was this because he dropped out, or because you have the talents to voice two people, and he was just unfortunate not to land a different role in the game? Has this affected your friendship at all, with voice acting being so competitive?

He said he'd have a look at them, but it's been a few days and he's yet to reply back to the questions. He did say he's busy though.

I love Yuri, and his wife is Tara Platt? I hope she's as hot as her voice! :lol: You can tell him that Zhang He sounds very disturbing in DW6. :wacko: He needs to go back to the deeper, less flamboyant Zhang He voice from DW5. We don't need another Michael Jackson! :OMG:

Hope you actually get to talk to him though. He's probably my favorite actor from any Koei game.

I have taken on the duty to interview his wife Tara Platt.

On a side note it was Bryce Pappenbrook who did Guan Ping.

:D Yuri Lowenthal's one of my fave VAs! And I knew that he did the "Sun Ce grunt" when he voiced Cecil Harvey in Dissidia. And he's already familiar to me knowing Cecil does Sun Ce's grunt sometimes.

He's downright awesome!!! :XD
A total Bryce Papenbrook fan is what I am! I'm proud to be Zidane's fangurl now. :D
