7) it's on cartoon network
8) I like to sit on the deck when it rains and smell the air that gets this good smell when it rains
mah little sis says: calafanakis is a mens cologne that smells like sweat, farts and dwarf dandruff
P.S. it stains anything you spray it on and after it dries it smells like boogers on pancakes in the afternoon.
1) I did indeed play Kid Icarus. Pit was awesome. I liked a LOT of games when I was a kid.
2) Just don't break anything.
3) Insanity is always good.
4) Heheh, I know. GREAT voice acting.
6) Well, don't eat too many pancakes, you'll get a tummy ache.
8) That's a good smell.
Your sister has a good imagination… I wouldn't smell that… it sounds icky.
Sorry, I don't have a 3DS.

Too right! As her Auntie I must make sure she gets quality entertainment!
Goodness the day of the epic battle is upon us, good luck both of you! And also Happy Birthday for this week hope you have a good one!
I enjoyed the interview very much thanks! And a great story behind how it happened too, poor Mac though I am surprised he wasn't out of breath for the interview. I am just happy that there was something from your stint at AN.
It would be like "Ah so you are the one who asked me this on WBO" kind of like how some put faces to the voices behind characters you'd be putting faces to who asked you which question.
Thanks I am glad we inspire you and make you wanna do more, it is very heart-warming you know and not every actor sees it that way.
It is inspiring and he used it to help me think more positive (I am bit of a negative thinker) adding to it he said "Not number five or number six".
Oh bit of a correction it was 50 I saw not 51 but I can see why you enjoyed performing there. Beyblade will be back on TV soon so I will re-watch some of the eps to enjoy them better!
I bet you would, until Tempo decided to create a black hole ans suck the three of you in it and then you would all be together forever...muahahaha.
The Tease Machine strikes anywhere anytime!
I can understand that it would be more appropriate to name a pet after one of your characters rather than a child...
Ah I see I did notice a character from the Dark Comedy was also named Benjamin when looking it up. It is nice to homage others through your characters, do they know you do it?
Another thought is the Toby/Faust change is somewhat comparable (but not alot) to Ginger from Ginger Snaps. Both become more adult, hair turns white, they become bad, never the same again however Toby gets saved...
Another question would be would you do anime again if offered?
Makes sense as you are still on Metal Fury and would not be thinking into the future yet.
Thanks for the answers/comments/stories, it is great to hear from you too it is great to read your fan interactions.
To add to the video game convo I just want to say I beat Sonic 1 with no cheats and with the good ending for the first time and I am thrilled! Mega Drive/Genesis rules!
I love the fans a ton, whether they know my character or not. It doesn't matter. It's lots of fun.
Yes, quality entertainment is VERY important.
Thank you, it was a great birthday. We didn't battle, but we will… oh we will! I just got an idea too.
It was a great interview, and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I enjoy meeting any and all fans, so yes, it would be great to meet some people from WBO.
Well, you guys DO inspire me… and I guess I'm just not the average actor.
I'm sorry to hear that you're a bit of a negative thinker. You should think positively because you're awesome. If my motto can help, use it. "AIM FOR NUMBER OOOOONE!"
50 and 51 are both great episodes. I'm glad you liked it, and I hope watching it gain is worth it.
Well, if Tempo made the black hole we couldn't "enjoy" the love triangle… so I'll just keep that out of it. Hahah.
TEASE MACHINE! I should make a t-shirt that says that.
I might name a dog "Toby" or "Faust" some day. That could be fun.
Well, a few little things about Benjamin Graines are based off of me (that he likes the 30s and 40s and suits with fedora hats) so he definitely knows it. But he's also a little bit foolish… so that's based off of the other writers. MWAHAHAHA
Ooh, interesting comparison with Ginger Snaps. YAY for saving Toby. He's so precious.
Yes! Absolutely. In fact, I'm trying very hard to get into other anime series. I really love doing it. It's hard work, but wonderful, amazing, and rewarding work.
Metal Fury recording is almost done… *Sniff sniff* I'll be very sad when it's over.
Always a pleasure sharing stories, answers, and comments. Sorry if I'm not as interactive as usual today. I'm very tired.
HURRAY for beating Sonic! WOO! Great and tough game. I loved my Sega Genesis.
Thanks for the questions and comments and, as always, I'm looking forward to the next message from you.

Toby sounded weak and wimpy, because he was ill and Faust sounds strong and very serious! i really like the arena design where ya launch tempo. I also got to see it evaporate a mountain, lake, AND an entire forrest! YOU LUMPING MADE HADES CITY FLY LIKE A LUMPING SPACE SHIP!!!!
EDIT: whatcha think of mah sig
I'm glad you like Faust's voice, I loved playing him. Keep watching, Faust only gets cooler.
Yep, I destroyed all of it. MWAHAHAHA I AM EVIL!
Interesting signature… heh.

Indeed I do feel a connection to my characters. I always try to draw from personal experience to make the character more believable. I share the can-do attitude that Toby has, and always being the one to try try try again.

Well, we're not "just" voice actors… we're actors. I draw from personal experience to connect to my characters. That being said, you are correct that we don't live out our characters. Mac and I get along just fine.
I don't connect on THAT level, but I definitely connect to Toby on some level.
P.S. Zeo and Mac are the same person. Having him betray himself would be REALLY weird. Heheh

Nope, but I am

When I did the sesame street voice acting i felt a strong relation to my character! Especially since me and my character were both the older brother and probably around the same age (when i did the voice acting, i was about 6 years back then) so honestly, beybladetiggy, please refrain from answering questions for people, that would be nice.
EDIT: if any of you are wondering what i mean by the sesame street voice acting PLEASE do not ask it on here but please PM me
I'm glad you felt a connection with your character when you were voicing him. It's important to be able to feel that with characters, otherwise the performance might suffer. It might not… but I always like to connect.
(Jun. 29, 2012 12:54 PM)beybladetiggy Wrote: [ -> ]Being the same age doesnt mean that you relate to the character lol.Please stop arguing and just to let you know its not a guarantee that a voice actor relates a lot to the charactor he or she is voice acting.Its the voice they are looking for.If it fits the character then you will be hired.They wont hire a person who acts like Ryuga but his voice doesnt fit the character.I think this is enough.Lets have some respect and act mature for once
People feel connections in different ways.
To a degree, you're right, they are looking for a specific voice. They're often also looking for a character. Sure, I could go in and just read with the voice, but then the character would be bland and boring. The character is what makes him fun.
My voice for Toby at the audition and my voice for Toby that you all heard on TV was COMPLETELY different. By the time I recorded the TV show the character was more developed.
Both of you are correct to some degree. It takes a lot to make a character sound good. Some people connect to the characters and some don't. Personally, I do. Not to the point of mimicking them and living their lives… I'm not a method actor… but to the point of feeling an emotional connection to improve my performance.

Who do u think is a cooler person to be: Toby or Faust.
Which is your fav bey of Toby/Faust:
Rock Aries 145WD
Basalt Horogium 145WD
Screw Lyra ED145MF
Which do u think is a better name for it: Basalt Horogium or Twisted Tempo? I like Horogium better.
I'm glad that you like Faust. He's a lot of fun to play.
Cooler character to be, Toby. He has a lot more depth to him and a ton going on in his head.
I enjoyed voicing Faust more (not a lot more, but enough), just because I LOVE the gritty stuff I was able to do with him.
I love Basalt Horogium / Twisted Tempo the best of my Beys because it is SO AWESOME AND POWERFUL!
Personally, I think both names are great. I like Basalt Horogium because I'm pretty sure it's a reference to the constellation Horologium. The name Twisted Tempo just sounds AWESOME though.
Thank you everyone for your questions and comments. Please keep them coming
To all of you who wished me a happy birthday yesterday, thank you very much.
