* ''{{Recess}}'' lists who played who for the main cast, and then everyone else's voice actor is listed as "Additional voices", not saying who voices who, which carried into most of the dubs of the series (and it often varies on if Miss Grotke's going to be part of the "main" or "supporting" cast, she's "supporting" in most foreign dubs).

Common in {{anime}} and WesternAnimation, and related to [[HeyItsThatGuy Hey, It's That Guy]] & [[HeyItsThatVoice Hey, It's That Voice]]. This is when a series is dubbed, and the credits list the Japanese voice actor in the standard Actor-Role method, while the English voice actors, by contrast, are lumped into a simple list under the heading "English Voice Talent." This makes viewers who recognize an actor's name have to [[TheOtherWiki do a search]] to determine which character they were, which can be problematic especially if they used an alias for this production (or if [[ManOfAThousandVoices someone has a very large vocal range]]). (This is generally a sign that the voice acting was [[UnionsInHollywood not unionized]] for the production and at least one if not the majority of the voice talent are using aliases.) Many live-action dubbed films go farther (they're often released in theaters subtitled) and don't list the English dub actors at all.

!!Examples:
* ''{{Bleach}}'' lists the English voice cast, but not their roles.
* ''BurnUp Scramble'' (Featuring WendeeLee)
* ''CowboyBebop'' (Odd, considering that the dub has been lauded for being [[SuperlativeDubbing superior to the original Japanese]], even by the creators.)
* ''GunXSword'' has English credits, but doesn't list the voice cast.
* ''OutlawStar''
* ''SamuraiChamploo''
* Particularly bad in ''StarBlazers,'' where the American voice actors got ''no'' credit.
* Many series released by {{Geneon}} (before Geneon died, obviously).
* Many video games list only the Japanese voice credits, ''period.''
* ''StreetFighterII:V''

!!Aversions:
* ''AngelicLayer''
* ''ChronoCrusade'' goes English, then Japanese credits.
* ''ErgoProxy''
* ''{{Gantz}}''
* ''KiddyGrade''
* ''MaiHiME'' runs the credits twice; once in Japanese, then once in English.
* ''{{Noein}}''
* ''NowAndThenHereAndThere'' lists them concurrently, in both the ends credits and the ''dramatis personae'' at the beginning of each episode.
* ''SamuraiSeven'' does the English credits before the Japanese ones.
* As does ''AirGear''.
* ''ShadowHearts'' only gives the English voice cast.
* ''{{Tokko}}'' not only does full Japanese and English credits, but full Spanish credits.
* This is a common practice in ''most'' anime series nowadays; FUNimation even tends to give the English voice cast ''precedence'' in the credits over the Japanese voice cast, as did ADVFilms back when they did dubs.
