Revamped Cast Guide: A Fresh Look at Voice Talent in Dragon Ball
Published by Hujio on March 13, 2025, at 1:03 PM EDT
Since the debut of Kanzenshuu in April 2012, the "Cast Guide" has seen minimal changes, primarily focusing on database updates over the years. This guide was one of the remnants from the era before the merger, resembling its predecessor on Kanzentai with only a few cast profiles from the initial phase of Dragon Ball Kai. However, that is no longer the case! After a long 13 years, the guide has undergone a comprehensive redesign and reorganization to align with the modern structure of our other guides.
The newly updated guide now features detailed information on cast credit structures, enhanced and systematically organized cast profiles, and an extensive cast credits database. This database has also been revised to include characters from original video games, credits from the Super Dragon Ball Heroes promotional anime, and is current up to the latest episode of Dragon Ball Daima. Additionally, we have introduced filtering functionality, which you may have observed was implemented a few months back. This feature simplifies the process of viewing credits based on specific series, production mediums—such as movies, television shows, video games, and special features.
One of the significant changes in the cast profiles is the reorganization between the legacy (original) and the new/current voice cast. Instead of dedicated in-depth profile pages, we have adopted a listing format. This approach was primarily chosen for ease of maintenance and the ability to keep information current. Nevertheless, each profile includes links to agency profiles and available Wikipedia pages, where you can find more detailed information.
Now, let’s delve into the exciting changes you can expect from the revamped Cast Guide!
Enhanced Cast Profiles
The updated Cast Guide features more streamlined and organized profiles for voice actors associated with the Dragon Ball franchise. Each profile now highlights essential information, including the actor’s name, notable roles, and their contributions to the Dragon Ball universe. This reorganization allows fans to easily navigate through the extensive list of talent involved in bringing their favorite characters to life.
Comprehensive Database of Cast Credits
One of the most exciting additions to the Cast Guide is the expanded database of cast credits. This database now encompasses a broader range of productions, including original video game characters and credits from the Super Dragon Ball Heroes promotional anime. Fans can explore the vast array of contributions from voice actors across various mediums, making it easier to appreciate the depth of talent involved in the franchise.
User-Friendly Filtering Functionality
To improve user experience, the new Cast Guide incorporates a filtering system that allows users to sort through credits based on specific criteria. Whether you want to view cast credits from a particular series, production medium, or special feature, the filtering functionality makes it simple and intuitive. This enhancement ensures that fans can find the information they are looking for without any hassle.
Legacy and Current Voice Cast Separation
In the updated guide, we have made a clear distinction between the legacy voice cast and the current talent. This separation is crucial for fans who want to understand the evolution of voice acting in the Dragon Ball series. The legacy section pays homage to the original actors who shaped the characters and stories we know and love today, while the current section highlights the new generation of voice talent that continues to carry the torch.
Links to Additional Resources
While the new format focuses on concise profiles, we understand the importance of in-depth information. Therefore, each actor’s profile includes links to their respective agency profiles and Wikipedia pages. This ensures that fans can easily access more extensive information about their favorite voice actors, including their work outside of the Dragon Ball franchise.
A New Era for the Cast Guide
The complete overhaul of the Cast Guide marks a significant milestone in the evolution of Kanzenshuu. We recognize the importance of providing our audience with accurate, up-to-date information, and this revamped guide is a testament to our commitment to that mission. By embracing modern design principles and user-friendly features, we aim to enhance the overall experience for fans exploring the world of Dragon Ball voice talent.
Conclusion
With the launch of the updated Cast Guide, fans of the Dragon Ball franchise can now enjoy a more comprehensive resource that celebrates the talented individuals behind the characters they love. From enhanced profiles to a more extensive database of cast credits and user-friendly features, this overhaul reflects our dedication to providing fans with the best possible experience. So, dive in and explore the new Cast Guide to discover the rich tapestry of voice talent that continues to bring the Dragon Ball universe to life!
