[[folder: Anime & Manga]]
* Originally true in ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'''s FreakyFridayFlip, but then played averted in the dub. Kero and Shaoran Li's voices remain the same, but their speech patterns and mannerisms are noticeably swapped.
* This was true in ''a {{Hentai}} OVA'', fittingly called ''Body Transfer''. Plausibly enough the voices of {{Internal Monologue}}s remain the same from one body to another.
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', when Ino uses her Mind-Body Transfer jutsu, she always speaks with her host's voice.
* In original Japanese dub of ''MurderPrincess'' Alita and Falis switch voices when they switch bodies. However, their voices do not swap in the English dub.
* Used very creepily in ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' with [[spoiler:Hansel and Gretel. ''Each takes turns being Hansel or Gretel,'' and when they switch identities, their voices switch too. When there is only one "twin" left, the voice switching is creeeeepy.]]
* In the first OVA for the ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' first anime, Rito is [[GenderBender turned into a girl]], but has the same voice. However, the trope is used in the second anime, as "Riko" instead has a female voice ([[CrossDressingVoices but the same voice actor]]) for speaking while his InnerMonologue remain in his male voice.
* Happens in ''LightNovel/KokoroConnect'', where no indication is given of two characters switching bodies.
* Used in the FreakyFridayFlip episode of ''Manga/FairyTail'', primarily because [[RuleOfFunny it's funnier that way]].
* Occurs in ''LightNovel/HaiyoreNyarkoSan'' when Mahiro and Nyarko suffer a FreakyFridayFlip.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Literature]]
* In ''Literature/GalaxyOfFear'', if someone's brain has been removed and replaced with another brain, they keep the body's voice, but speak differently.
** This is probably consistent with what would happen in real life, due to the fact that everyone knows how they speak, so when they try and speak in someone else's body they would try to speak like they would in their own, so they would end up speaking different to the original owner of the voice speaks in the same body.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* The ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' episode "Out of Their Minds" begins with this, just so the viewers get what's going on immediately, by blending the voices of the two people involved. Later in the episode, though, the characters have all reverted to the body's voice, with each actor just using the other's body language and vocal patterns (or trying to).
** They also had each person wear the picture of the person they "actually" were around their neck. [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands Those DRDs can really do anything...]]
* In the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'', this trope is used in [[Recap/StarTrekS3E24TurnaboutIntruder Turnabout Intruder]]".
* In an episode of ''{{Warehouse 13}}'', Pete and Myka switched bodies (thanks to an [[MonsterOfTheWeek artifact]]), but their voicesremained the same. To emphasize the switch, the actors (rather impressively) mimicked the other character's mannerisms.
* In ''Series/StargateSG1'', this trope was used in the first body-swapping episode. The various actors did a hilariously good job of adopting each others' mannerisms, so it was still obvious who was in whose body, though the character with the body swapping technology that instigates the plot shared an actor with the main cast member he swapped bodies with. But in later cases, like the intergalactic communication device that exchanges two people's bodies, they averted the trope and swapped out ''the actors'', so the audience would see the person whose mind was in control, even though the characters were seeing the person whose body was being controlled.
* Used in an episode of ''Series/TheAvengers'' when two enemy agents switch bodies with Steed and Mrs. Peel. Sort of unavoidable, since the bad guys were supposed to be infiltrating British intellence.

[[folder:Video Games]]
* Both played straight and averted in ''[[NicktoonsUnite Nicktoons: Globs of Doom]]'' whenever BigBad Globulous Maximus speaks through {{SpongeBob SquarePants}}.

Yep.) and after that, it's a hammy Dee Bradley Baker "voicing" the yellow guy.
* Used in Relius' joke ending in ''VideoGame/BlazBlueContinuumShift Extend'', which is all about body switching. The voices actors of the characters don't change when they switch bodies, though their tone of voice does change accordingly.
* Used in the video game adaptation of ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'' part five. Near the end of the game, everyone switches bodies, but they retain the voice of the bodies owner. Their Stands swap with them, though.
* In response to the ninth ''Pokémon'' movie, this trope is used in ''[[SuperSmashBros Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' with Manaphy's Heart Swap attack when it comes out of a Poke Ball. Making Zelda sound like Donkey Kong and vice versa would be a little weird, in retrospect.
* Used in SaintsRowTheThird when the boss gets plastic surgery to look exactly like [[spoiler: Cyrus Temple]]. The sound of the voice changes appropriately, but the mannerisms remain the same.

* Used in the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'' episode "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HINrM_Y8kEk&feature=channel_page The Great Brain Robbery]]", when Lex Luthor and Flash exchange bodies. They use the voices belonging to the bodies. The writing staff wrote the ep solely as an ActorAllusion for ''{{Smallville}}'' fans, since live action Lex and animated Flash are both played by Michael Rosenbaum. A significant portion of the episode's comedy also comes from the usually sinister vocal stylings of Lex's voice actor, Clancy "[[Film/{{Highlander}} The Kurgan]]" Brown, playing the goofball Flash for an episode. Among the jokes that [[RuleOfFunny saved the episode]]:
--> '''Luthor (In Flash's Body):''' If nothing else, I can at least learn the Flash's secret identity. (''removes mask, {{Beat}}'') I have no idea who this is.
** It gets better, as Lex's regular voice actor performs a hilarious Flash in Lex's body trying very hard to ''sound'' evil but coming off as PokeThePoodle instead.
-->("Lex" tries to leave the men's room)
--> '''Dr. Polaris:''' Aren't you going to wash your hands?
-->'''Lex:''' No, because ''I'm evil.''
** Also used in the episode "Dead Reckoning", where characters don't change voices when possessed by Deadman. They do, however, gain his accent and mannerisms.
* In ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'', when the girls were {{Freaky Friday Flip}}ped with the Professor, the Mayor, and Miss Bellum, they not only retained their voiced but their '''''[[PowersAsPrograms powers]]''''', too. Granted, it was mainly because as the Professor's TechnoBabble explained, they switched outer "layers" rather than their entire bodies being swapped.
* Notably used in ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}''; Coldstone has three different personalities, all of which use Coldstone's voice with minor inflections when they're in control of the body. The female personality, the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3tHy08ZJ98&feature=related first time she controlled the body]], even said "My voice. It's different!" In a later episode, Puck switches the minds of various members of the cast (including all three of Coldstone's alternate personalities) and everyone's voice matches the body, rather than the mind, of the speaker.
** This is worked into the plots of said episodes, as it allows them to conceal which personality is in control of a body until TheReveal.
** Between those two it was sort of used when Wolf was possessed by the Viking Hakon, his ancestor. Both characters are voiced by Creator/ClancyBrown, and the ep was written to highlight his ability to [[TalkingToHimself talk to himself]] in the voice of either character, making possessed Wolf sound subtlely different from Wolf.
* Used similarly in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' with Blitzwing, who also has three personalities and, bizarrely, associated faces; they use the same voice and accent (mostly, since Hothead actually has an [[TheAhnold Austrian]] rather than German accent), but have remarkably different inflection.
** Used again, later in "Where Is Thy Sting?": [[spoiler:Wasp tries to switch places with Bumblebee and one of the things he does is switch their voice processors. So after the switch Wasp has speaks with Bumblebee's voice while still maintaining his weird speech patterns and Bumblebee has Wasp's buzzing voice by still talks normally]].
** Used in the [[WesternAnimation/TransformersRescueBots Rescue Bots]] episode "Switcheroo" as well, where the characters retain the original voices of their bodies, yet change mannerisms and personalities of the ones they swapped with. The entire episode idea itself came from [[WordOfGod the cast goofing off and imitating each others' characters.]]
* Also used in the FreakyFridayFlip episode of ''{{Pirates of Dark Water}}''. Probably for the sake of hearing the [[MixAndMatchCritters monkey-bird's]] voice do HulkSpeak.
* Partly used in ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin''. Baloo and Kit switch bodies but don't switch voices. Instead, the voices stay with the bodies, but Kit's voice is pitchshifted down and Baloo's is pitchshifted up.
** Notably, it's shown that it's not just a case of RuleOfPerception but something ''other characters can notice'', as they had to trick Rebecca into thinking there was something wrong with her hearing.
* Used in the ''WesternAnimation/IAmWeasel'' short "I Architect". Owing to a surgical mishap, Weasel and Baboon's brains are switched. Michael Dorn (Baboon-in-Weasel) imitates Charlie Adler's goofy way of speaking, while Adler (Weasel-in-Baboon) speaks with Dorn's dry precision. The effect is pretty hilarious.
* Used in a FreakyFridayFlip episode of the 1980s version of ''[[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]''. Splinter and Shredder were swapped, but the voices stayed with the bodies.
* Used in an episode of ''Westernanimation/TwoStupidDogs'': the dogs switch minds, but they still have the same voices. It's their mannerisms and the way they talked that switched.
* Happens in a ''WesternAnimation/LloydInSpace'' episode where Lloyd and Francine switched minds. The voices stayed with their respective bodies and only their personalities and mannerisms switched. Possibly done because Lloyd's genius friend Douglas would have noticed the obvious change in voice.
* Used in the sound recording of the incomplete ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' episode "Ten Minutes to Doom". Which is to say, when Dib gets "possessed" by Zim he still sounds like Dib. Just... more evil.
* Used in the '90s ''WesternAnimation/MegaMan'' cartoon, when Mega Man and Snake Man were switched, but Mega Man even spoke SssssnakeTalk (Snake Man's VerbalTic) rather than just getting his voice. Snake Man might have been chosen for the plot since he and Mega Man [[TalkingToHimself shared the same voice actor]], though.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Ultimate Spider-Man}}'' does this when Spider-man and Wolverine switch bodies. Listening to Creator/SteveBlum do the panicked and snarky Spider-man in his Wolverine's voice is hilarious.
** It happens again later: Imagine FredTatasciore doing it in his {{Hulk}} voice! Also, in both these episodes, DrakeBell (Peter/Spidey, and ''not'' considered the best VA he's had, though it may be colored by fan reaction to the DenserAndWackier series in general) gets to [[HeReallyCanAct show his range]] a bit.
* Another instance occurs in ''WesternAnimation/CaptainSimianAndTheSpaceMonkeys''. When Captain Simian and Shao Lin do their FreakyFridayFlip, each body keeps its own voice, but the voice actors imitate each others' distinctive cadences.
* Used in ''WesternAnimation/TheReplacements'' episode "A Buzzwork Orange", where K and Dick switch bodies. As a result, Dick speaks with a British accent, while K sounds like [[{{Rugrats}} Betty DeVille]].
* TransformersRescueBots does this in "Switcheroo." The majority of the main cast swap bodies, everyone retains their original voices, and the voice actors simply imitate each other's characters and inflections. The results are stupendous.
* Used in the "The Meteor" episode of ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom''. Sonic and Eggman's bodies retain their voices after the GreenRocks swap them around.

This is when that doesn't happen. This is when voices do not switch with characters' minds, which results in their actors having to approximate each others' vocal range instead.
Contrast VoicesAreMental for when voices do change.

!!Examples
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder: Anime & Manga]]
* Originally true in ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'''s FreakyFridayFlip, but then played averted in the dub. Kero and Shaoran Li's voices remain the same, but their speech patterns and mannerisms are noticeably swapped.
* This was true in ''a {{Hentai}} OVA'', fittingly called ''Body Transfer''. Plausibly enough the voices of {{Internal Monologue}}s remain the same from one body to another.
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', when Ino uses her Mind-Body Transfer jutsu, she always speaks with her host's voice.
* In original Japanese dub of ''MurderPrincess'' Alita and Falis switch voices when they switch bodies. However, their voices do not swap in the English dub.
* Used very creepily in ''Manga/BlackLagoon'' with [[spoiler:Hansel and Gretel. ''Each takes turns being Hansel or Gretel,'' and when they switch identities, their voices switch too. When there is only one "twin" left, the voice switching is creeeeepy.]]
* In the first OVA for the ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' first anime, Rito is [[GenderBender turned into a girl]], but has the same voice. However, the trope is used in the second anime, as "Riko" instead has a female voice ([[CrossDressingVoices but the same voice actor]]) for speaking while his InnerMonologue remain in his male voice.
* Happens in ''LightNovel/KokoroConnect'', where no indication is given of two characters switching bodies.
* Used in the FreakyFridayFlip episode of ''Manga/FairyTail'', primarily because [[RuleOfFunny it's funnier that way]].
* Occurs in ''LightNovel/HaiyoreNyarkoSan'' when Mahiro and Nyarko suffer a FreakyFridayFlip.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Literature]]
* In ''Literature/GalaxyOfFear'', if someone's brain has been removed and replaced with another brain, they keep the body's voice, but speak differently.
** This is probably consistent with what would happen in real life, due to the fact that everyone knows how they speak, so when they try and speak in someone else's body they would try to speak like they would in their own, so they would end up speaking different to the original owner of the voice speaks in the same body.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Live Action TV]]
* The ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' episode "Out of Their Minds" begins with this, just so the viewers get what's going on immediately, by blending the voices of the two people involved. Later in the episode, though, the characters have all reverted to the body's voice, with each actor just using the other's body language and vocal patterns (or trying to).
** They also had each person wear the picture of the person they "actually" were around their neck. [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands Those DRDs can really do anything...]]
* In the ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'', this trope is used in [[Recap/StarTrekS3E24TurnaboutIntruder Turnabout Intruder]]".
* In an episode of ''{{Warehouse 13}}'', Pete and Myka switched bodies (thanks to an [[MonsterOfTheWeek artifact]]), but their voicesremained the same. To emphasize the switch, the actors (rather impressively) mimicked the other character's mannerisms.
* In ''Series/StargateSG1'', this trope was used in the first body-swapping episode. The various actors did a hilariously good job of adopting each others' mannerisms, so it was still obvious who was in whose body, though the character with the body swapping technology that instigates the plot shared an actor with the main cast member he swapped bodies with. But in later cases, like the intergalactic communication device that exchanges two people's bodies, they averted the trope and swapped out ''the actors'', so the audience would see the person whose mind was in control, even though the characters were seeing the person whose body was being controlled.
* Used in an episode of ''Series/TheAvengers'' when two enemy agents switch bodies with Steed and Mrs. Peel. Sort of unavoidable, since the bad guys were supposed to be infiltrating British intellence.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Video Games]]
* Both played straight and averted in ''[[NicktoonsUnite Nicktoons: Globs of Doom]]'' whenever BigBad Globulous Maximus speaks through {{SpongeBob SquarePants}}. First, it's merely [=SpongeBob=] acting evil; the second time, we start with evil [=SpongeBob=] who switches to Globulous' voice ''mid-sentence'' (which is the cue needed for JimmyNeutron to note that [[CaptainObvious he's speaking through him]] and for WesternAnimation/InvaderZim to complain about Globulous being a [[LargeHam larger ham]] than him. Yep.) and after that, it's a hammy Dee Bradley Baker "voicing" the yellow guy.
* Used in Relius' joke ending in ''VideoGame/BlazBlueContinuumShift Extend'', which is all about body switching. The voices actors of the characters don't change when they switch bodies, though their tone of voice does change accordingly.
* Used in the video game adaptation of ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'' part five. Near the end of the game, everyone switches bodies, but they retain the voice of the bodies owner. Their Stands swap with them, though.
* In response to the ninth ''Pokémon'' movie, this trope is used in ''[[SuperSmashBros Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' with Manaphy's Heart Swap attack when it comes out of a Poke Ball. Making Zelda sound like Donkey Kong and vice versa would be a little weird, in retrospect.
* Used in SaintsRowTheThird when the boss gets plastic surgery to look exactly like [[spoiler: Cyrus Temple]]. The sound of the voice changes appropriately, but the mannerisms remain the same.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Web Original]]
* Used in ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'': When Goku and Ginyu swap bodies, they speak in their new bodies' voices, but keep their old accents. Goku still thinks in his normal voice, however.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* Used in the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'' episode "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HINrM_Y8kEk&feature=channel_page The Great Brain Robbery]]", when Lex Luthor and Flash exchange bodies. They use the voices belonging to the bodies. The writing staff wrote the ep solely as an ActorAllusion for ''{{Smallville}}'' fans, since live action Lex and animated Flash are both played by Michael Rosenbaum. A significant portion of the episode's comedy also comes from the usually sinister vocal stylings of Lex's voice actor, Clancy "[[Film/{{Highlander}} The Kurgan]]" Brown, playing the goofball Flash for an episode. Among the jokes that [[RuleOfFunny saved the episode]]:
--> '''Luthor (In Flash's Body):''' If nothing else, I can at least learn the Flash's secret identity. (''removes mask, {{Beat}}'') I have no idea who this is.
** It gets better, as Lex's regular voice actor performs a hilarious Flash in Lex's body trying very hard to ''sound'' evil but coming off as PokeThePoodle instead.
-->("Lex" tries to leave the men's room)
--> '''Dr. Polaris:''' Aren't you going to wash your hands?
-->'''Lex:''' No, because ''I'm evil.''
** Also used in the episode "Dead Reckoning", where characters don't change voices when possessed by Deadman. They do, however, gain his accent and mannerisms.
* In ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'', when the girls were {{Freaky Friday Flip}}ped with the Professor, the Mayor, and Miss Bellum, they not only retained their voiced but their '''''[[PowersAsPrograms powers]]''''', too. Granted, it was mainly because as the Professor's TechnoBabble explained, they switched outer "layers" rather than their entire bodies being swapped.
* Notably used in ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}''; Coldstone has three different personalities, all of which use Coldstone's voice with minor inflections when they're in control of the body. The female personality, the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3tHy08ZJ98&feature=related first time she controlled the body]], even said "My voice. It's different!" In a later episode, Puck switches the minds of various members of the cast (including all three of Coldstone's alternate personalities) and everyone's voice matches the body, rather than the mind, of the speaker.
** This is worked into the plots of said episodes, as it allows them to conceal which personality is in control of a body until TheReveal.

Both characters are voiced by Creator/ClancyBrown, and the ep was written to highlight his ability to [[TalkingToHimself talk to himself]] in the voice of either character, making possessed Wolf sound subtlely different from Wolf.
