Hey, has anyone noticed that a lot of the voice actors from Fruits Basket, are also from Yu Yu Hakusho? Shocked I mean, the first most obvious voice is Shigure who's Kurama, then Tohru who's Keiko, Kyo who's Jin and Sakamoto and I think Suzaku from the four saint beasts, and Haru who's Yusuke. I mean, I know Laura Bailey (Keiko/Tohru) was going to work on Fruits Basket after YYH, but I didn't know she was bringing a whole crew with her! Shocked Anyone agree?

Well, it is a FUNimation production, and so they would continue to use the same stable of voice talents.

FUNi is not going to hire a new cast for every new series. And this sort of thing happens all the time in anime. It's nothing new.

Really, why is this so shocking? It essentially works the same way it does in Japan, a large pool of actors works on a new series, and is possible for a seiyuu to be in several series throughout the year.
