Voice acting is one of the most underappreciated roles in modern times, with very few talented voice actors getting the recognition they truly deserve. The industry is infamous for underpaying huge talents and preventing them from reaping the most of their skills and talent, and it's great that more voices are airing out these grievances and bringing more attention to this plight. Fans need only hear some of the many voice actors around and their impressive talent to realize why they deserve the big bucks.
This is especially true for voice actors who can take over the role of multiple characters without too many issues. In fact, it's this range that is pretty impressive, with most people not even realizing that two different characters with extremely different speech patterns share the same voice actor. The most versatile anime voice actors are experts in this regard and deserve to be more famous than they are.
8 Natsuki Hanae
In the past few years, Natsuki Hanae has voiced many roles for varying characters, giving them a unique voice almost all the time. It's easy to see why he's widely regarded as being one of the most versatile anime voice actors given the intense effort he puts into each and every voice role.
He's voiced Tanjiro from Demon Slayer, Vanitas from The Case Study of Vanitas, Ken Kaneki from Tokyo Ghoul, and Odawara from Odd Taxi. These roles are quite different and it's easy to see why his range is being noticed by many anime fans.
7 Akira Ishida
It would be impossible to talk about voice actors with impressive ranges without mentioning Akira Ishida. The video where he voices seven members of a family with different speech patterns, tones, and everything else along the same lines makes it clear why he's so well thought of by anime fans.
His notable roles include Gaara from Naruto, Judeau from Berserk, and Zeref Dragneel from Fairy Tail. Most viewers will find it incredibly challenging to recognize Ishida's voice despite hearing it across multiple popular works.
6 Aoi Yuuki
It takes a special talent to voice characters that are both dark and brooding to others that are as happy as can be. Only a select few anime voice actors have the talent required to pull this off, and Aoi Yuuki is one of them.
One need only look at the fact that her performances as Madoka in Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Tsuyu Asui from My Hero Academia, and Tatsumaki from One-Punch Man sound nothing alike. It's truly impressive and shows just how valued this talent really is in the industry.
5 Maaya Sakamoto
It doesn't matter what age or gender a character is for Maaya Sakamoto since she nails a unique and fitting voice for these personas every single time. She is truly at the top of her game, with her multiple years in the VA industry pretty much speaking for themselves.
Her career has blown up since playing Hitomi in The Vision of Escaflowne. Her other notable roles include Motoko Kusanagi in Ghost in the Shell: Arise and Akito in Fruits Basket.
4 Daisuke Namikawa
It's highly probable that viewers must've heard Daisuke's VA talent at some point in a series, given how many notable roles he's played over the years. Of course, recognizing his voice is an entirely different ball game.
He can play both heroes and villains with great panache, making him one of the most sought-after actors in the anime industry. His notable roles include Ulquiorra Cifer in Bleach, Momoshiki Otsutsuki in Boruto, Hisoka in Hunter X Hunter, and Oikawa in Haikyuu.
3 Yuki Kaji
Yuki Kaji is easily one of the biggest voice actors in anime right now, with his roles being quite popular in their own right. It helps that his range is immense, letting him play a bunch of roles without ever sounding like the same person.
His most popular and notable roles include Eren Jaeger from Attack on Titan, both Meliodas & Zeldris from The Seven Deadly Sins, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic from One-Punch Man, and Shoto Todoroki from My Hero Academia. These voices don't really sound alike, displaying the immense range this talented voice actor has.
2 Mamoru Miyano
Mamoru Miyano's voice is a thing of beauty, especially given how diverse it is. People will find it virtually impossible to try and distinguish his voice across the many roles he's done since he always changes the inflections present in his tone and strives to nail down a unique voice for each character he portrays.
Only a genius would be able to form an apt voice for an easygoing scientist like Rintaro Okabe from Steins;Gate only to then voice the ruthless psychopath Light Yagami from Death Note. It's this amazing range he possesses that makes Mamoru Miyano one of the most versatile anime voice actors around.
1 Haruka Tomatsu
Not only is Haruka a very popular and respected voice actor, but she's also made a name for herself as a notable singer. It shows just how rich and flexible her voice really is, especially with most of her roles being barely recognizable when compared with one another.
Her notable works include voicing Asuna from Sword Art Online, Lala in ToLoveRu, and Zero Two in Darling in the Franxx. Her performance as the gender-swapped Gintoki from Gintama is also worth a mention, showing just how brilliant her range as a voice actor really is.
