"What can a dub voice actor bring to a character?" This.

I don't want to credit Bosch entirely for this characterization of Vash, as a load of how he portrays Vash comes from the way Masaya Onosaka did in 1998 just before Bosch's first run as Vash, but you can absolutely credit Bosch for brining this kind of energy back to Stampede!!

Bosch's ad-libbing and characterization through those iconic falsetto shouts and screams is very much unique to the Stampede dub so far unlike the original! And that's not to look down on Yoshitsugu Matsuoka's performance either, both bring unique character traits to the table!

I just think it's very interesting the way that so far Stampede EN Vash and Stampede JPN Vash are slightly different characters through their talented voice actors, with Matsuoka bringing a slightly more laid back Vash, and Bosch aiming for a nostalgically EXTRA goofy Vash! 😲

ICONIC

Every single clip of this man that I have seen, he’s always pathetic. Might have to watch Stampede now 😭

TRIGUN IS SOOOOO GOOOOOOD it asks the age old question: “what if there was a gunman more talented than any assassin on the planet but he was cringe and fail and a loser and also hated violence”

Johnny Yong Bosch panic mode is a comedy blessing.

ITS THE FALSETTOOOOOO!! so iconic 🥲

The relief I felt when I heard JYB was reprising the role was palpable. I'm so glad he was able to be Vash again!

ME TOOOOOO I’d been praying for it since the first trailer dropped last summer !! 😭
