Somehow, I feel like there's a joke to be made involving the third western...thing in Super 13 (the one with Piccolo suplexing a robot) and the Franky/Senor Pink fight in One Piece. wink

So in the breakdown, Kaiser confirmed that Justin Briner (Cloud's VA in Machinabridged) will be taking over as Gohan's voice actor come the Buu Saga.

It also makes sense because Buu Saga Gohan is still young, while History of Trunks Gohan was a full adult.

He's only 16, no 16 year old would such a deep voice of that History of Trunks Gohan.

Isn't it usually in the norm for Bad Future characters to have gruff and deep voices?

Yeah that's almost a stereotype, kind of.

If they don't look the part for a bad future, they definitely sound the part.

I thought the recasting also was a neat casting gag at least since in the Funimation dub, Older Gohan went from being voiced by Damian Clarke to Kyle Hebert.

For a second I thought Chris Jericho had something to do with it.

That’s an odd thing to say in an episode that intentionally destroys all of its tension for its other characters, but that lack of tension is earned, as it’s been slowly established over the past few episodes that the androids they’ve been fighting haven’t been nearly the threat Trunks made them out to be. Goku’s presence, on the other hand, automatically removes any semblance of tension, as the show has now proven twice that he’s guaranteed victory, even in circumstances where by all account he should be dead (see: Muffin Button2). Not having Goku around means that they’re free to focus on the characters who have to work to achieve the power they do; they’re free to focus on humans instead of a demigod.

Oh, this person is going to be so happy when the Cell Games come around.

From the footnote on Muffin Button:

I’m criticizing Toriyama for writing a completely unbeatable character whose victories come by ancient prophecy and plot contrivance, rather than actual developed effort. I am also aware of the end of the Cell Saga, and yes, Toriyama deserves credit for ending it the way he did.
