Pony Voice Actor Charts

All sources
For all the animation lovers out there, a bunch of charts have popped up displaying each character and what other roles the voice actor has played.

Honestly I didn't even know Tabitha St. Germaine voiced so many characters just within the ponyverse.  Zecora really surprises me!

More charts/comparisons for our pony informational needs!

Bloomberg said...

wow, some of these caught me by surprise.

Jeremy said...

What is this thing in my mouth... It's pink and it's slippery...

dublio said...

Tara Strong is like the Samuel L Jackson of the cartoon/video game universe. She is everywhere!

InfinityDash said...

Interesting, informative, and awesome!

Fallin' Winter said...

And then they do a Tara Strong chart and it breaks people's computers trying to load that big a file.

dublio said...

Now we need charts for the other characters too. Like Trixie, One example is that the voice actor for her used to voice Dot from Reboot. :D

Carlos the Hedgehog said...

I love it how people who worked on Ed, Edd, n Eddy continues to appear somewhere in the workforce. :D

Mesías said...

Seth!
Don't forget that Cathy Weseluck (Spike's voice) also voice Cybersix in her eponymous series.

The Toonfreak said...

As a animation historian buff, I highly approve of this.
This is awesome!
O.o

Nals said...

Omfg, my moms friend is the voice actor for martha speaks dog, witch means O_O my moms friends voices for rarity nnm and luns!!! Omgomgomgomgomgomg!!!!!!

Brian said...

Little Strong Heart should be in Ashleigh Ball's list

scraleos said...

NOOO THEY FORGOT THAT TARA STRONG VOICES KLUKE IN BLUE DRAGON

Shadow Dragon said...

I would never have guessed that Spike and Near had the same voice actor. Or that Zecora and Rarity was voiced by the same person.

SgtGarand said...

Spike is also the voice of Near from Death Note? Dear Celestia! I hear it now o.O I didn't expect the Mayor either.

Velvet said...

Spike... as L.
Now I can't get that out of my head!

Harwick said...

All of the voice actors on this show are incredible. Tabitha St. Germaine especially amazes me with all she brings to Rarity's line readings.

Bombedrumbum said...

HOLY- HOW IS SPIKE THE SAME VOICE ACTOR AS DEATH NOTE'S NEAR?!?! Can not unhear.......

Jomoru said...

Someone get to redubbing Twilight sparkle scenes with lines from Princess Clara

Phsuke said...

Uh, are you *sure* Tabitha St.Germain voiced Zecora? Not to say she isn't a talent voice actress but Zecora and Rarity never sounded remotely alike to me.

Although it is cool to know she did the voice of Naz in Ed,Edd and Eddy, I would have never guessed!

Osprey Hawk said...

There totally needs to be a Pinkie X Reboot crossover now!

Flutterfan said...

Wow I love this, such a cool visual.

I hope for their next big scoop EQD snags a interview with one of the voice actors.

Also it's not shown here but Tabitha St Germain voiced Minty the pony from G1 or G2 MLP which I think is so awesome!

DJ Kat said...

Brb, being mindfucked.

Ace2401 said...

@Jomoru

People have done that, and yes, it's totally hilarious.

Serephius said...

Sqee at TwilightRaven. Twilight just got a ton of points in my personal bestpony rankings. To remain in second place to Rarity of course.

Sunburst said...

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

this is pretty cool, and maybe the fact that some of the VA's are DBZ and Ed, Edd & Eddy veterans will help convert some of my friends

Aizuka said...

All the more reason why Rarity is my favorite Pony!

Author-Man said...

That is but a tiny fragment of the people Tara Strong has provided the voice for.

that woman is in fucking everything seriously

Raefire said...

Tara Strong was also the cheerleader Tara, Britina, and Joss Possible in Kim Possible, Barbara Gordon/Batgirl in Batman: The Animated Series, Ingrid Third in Fillmore!, Ilana in Sym-Bionic Titan, Kylie Griffin in Extreme Ghostbusters, etc., etc, etc...(although, to be fair, she's got such a huge resume, it'd take like 5 pages of picture charts to list them all...)

And nitpicky technical note, she only voiced Ben in the first Ben 10 incarnation, when he was young.

Vanishing said...

I honestly only recognize the ponies and Bubbles. The rest are a complete mystery

MaximillianVeers said...

I only see two of the dozens of Gundam Characters...

El Destructo said...

I already know Nicole Oliver, who voices Celestia, also voiced the Eldar Farseers in Warhammer 40k Dawn of War. It explained so much. XD

Raefire said...

Also, missing Photo Finish from Tabitha St. Germain's chart.

Lunasta, the magical wakeup pill said...

Fluttershy looks so scared at how many tabs I have open...

TheBlackBaron said...

That's really a very small slice of Tara Strong's VA resume and yet it's already ridiculously packed with awesome.

Harwick said...

Looking her up on IMDB, Tabitha St. Germaine is indeed credited with all of the ponies above, as well as Photo Finish. That's outstanding.

LBlaze said...

It's funny... I had a random dream last night where Ben from Ben 10: Alien Force/Ultimate Alien used a last ditch transformation into Discord. The personality overwhelmed him and he went on a chaotic pranking spree. And now I'm reminded Tara Strong voiced Ben in the first series.

...Now I have the idea for a Ben 10-style pony story stuck in my head. o.o

Octavia said...

Of course all together Tara has a ridiculously huge list. lol Fun charts thought, very cool. :D

Scy Storm said...

Tabitha's pic is missing Photo Finish! I also confess I didn't realise she did Zecora. I should have known, though, Zecora and NMM have similar voice inflections.

Two of them also have voiced X-23 of X-Men fame. Andrea voiced her in X-Men: Evolution, and Tara has voiced her in most everything Laura has been in recently, including Marvel vs. Capcom 3!

@Raefire
Haha, those! I love those. There needs to be so many more Twilight Clara redubs.

MASTERLINKX said...

I demand a picture of Cybersix/Adrian Seidelman for Cathy Weseluck

Scherzando said...

Chi-Chi and Chiaotzu?! MIND = BLOWN

daddyboom said...

Huh, didn't know many of the voice actors also voiced the care bears

Drax said...

Interesting, I;ve been trying to find out who did Zecora for months now, and nobody knew.

ChaosDX1 said...

Those are quite the visual resumes.

HenriekeG said...

Several of the voice actors also voiced ponies in the previous generations. I believe Pinkie was Sweety Belle and Rarity was Scootaloo in the preverious gen, or so.
I'd love to see more complete charts like this! For other voice actors as well, take Jim Cummings, it's amazing how many characters he voiced. (no pony stuff for as far as I know)

Flutterfan said...

spike's VA (Cathy Cathy Weseluck)does kagome's mom in inuyasha

DESCRIBEIT said...

nightmare moon == luna
omg thats many.
clones self into millions
i voiced myself so many me's

Brony Ponch said...

I think ive seen about 90% of all these shows.

Mint Jelly said...

Tara Strong played Raven in Teen Titans? Best cartoon adaption of DC outside of Batman TAS.

Heck yes!

Mike said...

Nazz = Rarity?
Timmy = Twilight Sparkle?

...o_O

beau-skunk said...

Y'know, one of Tara Strong's earlier roles was actually 2 of the Koopalings from the "Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3," and "Super Mario World" cartoons. (Hip & Hop Koopa, AKA Lemmy & Iggy Koopa)

She was credited by her old name Tara Charondoff though, so some don't make the connection.

DemureGirl said...

This is awesome! I love seeing what other roles voice actors play :D

Heartmend said...

The amazing voice talent is just one of many reasons why this show is awesome.

Serious credit to the writers. Some VAs have worked on past gens of MLP, but the characters didn't have anything interesting to say. When you have strong characterization and clever dialog, it just gives the VAs so much more to work with!

Not to mention, it just feeds the rest of the process. Suddenly storyboards are a LOT more interesting, and the whole show explodes with personality. Animation is more fun and interesting!

Zeitgeist said...

Yay for Raven, my favorite Teen Titan!!

quackey said...

Whoever voiced Spike voiced Ken in the english dub of PPGZ and G3 Rarity.

Tabitha St Germain voiced G3.5 Scootaloo.

he person who played pinkie pie and fluttershy played Madeline and G3.5 Sweetie Belle.

And type their names in Wikipedia for a full list of character they voiced.

Bobbyzero said...

I can't believe no one has mentioned Cathy Weseluck voiced Shampoo from Ranma 1/2.

instantrainbow said...

That's the wrong generation of Ben 10.

@scraleos
They don't even have half the characters she's done on there.

Jamie said...

So if Applejack and Rainbow Dash have the same voice actress, does that make Appledash incestual?

CTOONfan1 said...

Tara Strong voiced 10 year old Ben from the original show. That's 15 year old Ben, voiced by Yuri Lowenthal. A minor nitpick, but cool nonetheless.

Octas said...

Tera Strong's Chart needs to be fixed. She has voiced Ben Tennyson as a ten year old but she does not have and hand in voicing older ben in the newer series.

doctor dapples said...

@Mike
You can really hear Timmy during the fight to keep the book in the last episode of FiM.

ultra8 said...

Was expecting a long list for Tara Strong but wasn't expecting a drawn Together reference.
DBZ, Gundam, EE&E, Deathnote,a surprising amount of Carebears and freaking Reboot! Man these gals are talented.
Wacky that Spike's VA is also Purrur, Near, Chioatzu and the happy go-lucky friend from Inu-Yasha.
Tabitha St. Germaine doing Gundam I seem to remember hearing/reading about, unfortunately I not to familiar with those characters except for the fact that I know the last is from Seed(I Think.

Puzzlemint said...

Andrea Libman voiced young AndrAIa, not adult AndrAIa. She also voiced G3 Zipzee.

Cathy Weseluck voiced G3 Rarity, and Tabitha St. Germain voiced G3 Minty along with many others.

bronydash said...

I already knew it, but I still can't get my head around the fact that Ben 10 is voiced by a girl...

Jett said...

Ohhh if only Kath Soucie took part in this show.
Her character chart would be infinite.

Fluttershy...Chichi...Fluttershy...CHICHI!?!?!

Calnos said...

..Tabitha voiced Zecora? Missing from the Rarity list is Photo Finish by the way.

Craziness.

Elijah Bigsby said...

Am I the only one who liked St. Germain's VAing in Shana?

Chandler said...

Spike and Near are the same voice actor?

ohymgoshohymgoshohymgoshohymgoshohymgosh!

Really, though, as if MLP couldn't have gotten any cooler...

ZuTheSkunk said...

...Spike is voiced by a female? o_o

HA_BISKY said...

Is it just me, or is Tara Strong the greatest, ever?

Kyle Horn said...

Tabitha has also voiced Nokama from the two Bionicle: Metru Nui movies. Go figure, she's done so much already.

Stahi said...

Good thing Frank Welker isn't on this show..

ladymoondancer said...

" . . . with special guest star Frank Welker as Uni."

Eidolon said...

The voice actors for Celestia and Chief Thunderhooves also voiced pretty much the entire cast of the Dawn of War video games.

Gold Demona said...

More. More. MORE! I demand MORE!!! D8<

Um, that is... If you want to, of course. >.>

smartz118 said...

I think St. Germaine did Heloise from Jimmy Two-Shoes also.

D3N00B1F13D™ said...

I'm a big fan of Ashleigh Ball's, and I believe she also did the voices for Reira in the Anime Nana.

Go look that up. I loved that anime!

Chaosbo1 said...

can some one help me find my marbles i drop them when this blow my mind

ElectricZoNe said...

@bronydash

A lot of young male cartoon characters are voiced buy women. Bart Simpson for one is voiced by Nancy Cartwright.

NannerSaurus said...

Spike = Near?!

My mind is blown.

ElectricZoNe said...

@Raefire

Haha those are hilarious!



It pretty awesome how voice actors of old cartoons you loved are still working and doing new voices for new cartoons you love as well.

Aiz said...

I had a nerdgasm when I realized Tara Strong was also the voice of Rikku from Final Fantasy X. She was one of my favorite characters from the game.

ZigZag said...

Now I want Spike and Near re-dubs, in both shows.

thegamefilmguruman said...

Awww, they left Denis from Kid vs Kat out of Spike's pile.

Ozimul said...

... Pinkie and Fluttershy is AndrAIa....?!
*head explodes*
Quick! Someone swap Hexidecimal and Discord's dialogue it's gonna be SO AWESOME /)^ɛ^(\

Smashmatt202 said...

I instantly recognized everyone that was on Tara Strong's list of characters. She's pretty much the Jim Cummings/Frank Welker of female voice actors.

Cyl said...

Andrea Libman was Emmy from dragon tales? I knew it! She totally gave it away in Dragonshy. "Welcome to my cave Rarity, care for a diamond?"

AwesomePonies said...

Fluttershy is... Goku's waifu?

:sob:

Proginoskes said...

Glad to see I'm not the only ReBoot fan around here. But then, I suspect the animator who does "Evolution of a Scene" is a ReBoot fan too: he (or she) responded to one of the comments with "Yes sir, ma'am, sir!"

Select Few said...

Tabitha also voices Photo Finish, and the girl who voices Trixie also voiced Hoops.
http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/tv-shows/My-Little-Pony-Friendship-is-Magic/ has a longer list of who voices who.

KTS said...

Tara Strong did the young Ben Ten not the older Ben Ten.

Tyroq said...

Ok, some clarification regarding Spike's voice actress Cathy Weseluck. That pale character at the end she did is the english dub version of Near, not L. I'd only ever seen the Japanese version of Death Note, so perhaps this gives me a reason now to watch the English. Very cool though. :)

Blue Ace said...

I had no idea Tara Strong was Timmy Turner, Bubbles, and Raven.

Smashmatt202 said...

Sometimes, when Twilight is screaming, her voice briefly sounds like Timmy Turner's voice.

One-eyed Wolfdog said...

Speaking of Martha Speaks, Daniel Ingram did the (unsurprisingly, excellent) theme song for that show, too.

cluztershy said...

whoa, Tara Strong voices Ben 10? didn't see that coming :p

Twilight said...

Twilight's image doesn't do justice to just how many roles Tara Strong has been in.

SpecLad said...

Trixie is also Botanica from Beast Machines.

Lilfut said...

No mention of Rikku or Hip and Hop Koopa? I am disappoint.

Unknown said...

DBZ connections YAY.

Rotul said...

Fun Facts:

The voice director is Krillin from Dragonball Z. Chief Thunderhooves, and one of the Diamond Dogs is Piccolo. Trixie plays Kevin(DORK) and Marie Kanker from Ed, Edd and Eddy Soarin is Ed from Ed, Edd and Eddy, and Snips/Steve Magnet is going to play Frieza in Dragonball Kai!

It's a small world after all.

TTEchidna said...

@Elijah Bigsby Nope. I rather liked it, too. And hopefully they'll bring her back for SnSII when they get around to dubbing it.

Smashmatt202 said...

Well, the voice acting alliance is pretty closely knit together...

Still, there are quite a few anime voice actors in this show, in addition to voice actors who do American-made shows...

Wait, Sonny Strait is voice director? AND Chris Sabat did some voices?! He did the big Diamond Dog, didn't he? I always thought his voice was more tolerable than the other two.

Jace Arveduin said...

@Rotul
Yeah, I was looking through that, and noticed there were lots of overlaps with cartoons I'm familiar with.

So, does this mean we can have our ponies go Super Saiyan?

Moonshot said...

Woah! Hey guys! :)

yeah sorry about the ben10 mix-up and andraIa.

I am very well aware of how incomplete this is, just picked some interesting ones. I may whip up a few more, since this seemed to be popular!

Thanks everypony!

Kanister said...

Don't forget Peter New who voiced Big Macintosh and bunch of Orkz units from Warhammer 40.000: Dawn of War (IIRC Mad Dok, Nobz, Wartrukk and another vehicle)

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

Really? I was completely convinced that Zecora was voiced by Dawnn Lewis (LaBarbara from Futurama). She doesn't sound a thing like Rarity...

I guess Tabitha St. Germain must have an uncanny ability to throw her voice...

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

Funny, though... Zecora doesn't show up on her "Behind the Voice Actors" page...
http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Tabitha-St-Germain/

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

Doesn't show up on Dawnn Lewis' Page either though... http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Dawnn-Lewis/
Hmmmmmm...

Hell, Zecora doesn't show up on the site at ALL!
Have we ever gotten any word of God confirmation on Rarity's voice actress? Because I'm starting to get skeptical that this is right...

Brandon said...

Both of Pinkie's voice actors voice characters from Gundam 00 and Rarity voices someone from it too.

Moonshot said...

@Dusty

I pulled all of my info off of the imdb page for the show. So unless that's wrong, then Tabitha did Zecora as well.

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

@Moonshot

Huh... well imdb is USUALLY a decent source.

I guess we'll go with St. Germain until we hear otherwise then. *shrugs*

Pinkie Guy said...

Spike? In my Nears?

*checks YouTube for the English dub for Near, totally sounds like Spike*

MY HEAD ASPLODE

WritersBlah said...

Interesting fact: Tara Strong (Twilight Sparkle) also voiced two of the Koopalings from the Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World cartoons.

Jimperz said...

The VA community isn't as big as most people like to think it is. The most variety you'll get in terms of talent is when someone famous does a guest spot or takes on a movie role. Otherwise it's all those amazingly talented people, often lady's, doing the brunt of character voice acting. :3

Blake said...

Just a note Seth, You used the wrong Ben, that's Ben Ten when hes 17, Ben Ten Alien Force. Tara Strong did not voice Ben in that version but in the one Before, Just Ben Ten when he was 10. Im not sure who voices the older Ben, Im confident its the guy who did Sasuke in the Naruto Funimation Dub, I dont think hes done anything FiM yet...

Billy said...

I just imagined Rarity using Naz's voice.

hey dudes

{Brain go boom}

Eddmario said...

@Kyle Horn
Kathleen Barr, Trixie's VA, was Gali in Mask of Light and Roodaka and Gaaki in Web of Shadows.

Also, Tabitha St. Germain was the VA for Alexis on Transformers: Armada and Energon, and Penelope on Yu-Gi-Oh.

Also, didn't one of the VA's of FIM do a Digimon character as well?

megantron said...

Ahhh right, so that's where I've seen (heard?) Tara Strong before. Drawn Together. Lolllll

Stahi said...

Andrea Libman voiced young Chi-Chi in the Ocean Dub, not the adult.

Psudopod said...

Twilight = Raven? SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEEEEEEE(pop). I am also a SUPER Teen Titans nerd. Great character development, action, humor. Twilight is NOW THE BEST PONY! The voice actress is also in a lot of other good shows, Foster's Home, Fairy Oddparents, Chowder, Rugrats (All Grown Up :/) Timmy Turner (Poof season >:O). She must have mastered the pubescent teen voice. As I was saying on the subject of Teen Titans, now I will imagine Raven as Twilight and visa versa. I have drawn poor (not too poor, BB was adorable) Titan-pony fanart, this is how nerd I am. They have kinda similar characters, magical, not too feminine, a bit stoic,but Twi is more panicky and far less stoic. Still, RAVEN IS TWILIGHT BUT PONY. Back to SQUEEEEEE!

LordZephyr said...

@Neospyro007I didn't know she played Rikku, Twi does sound a bit like-
wait, Killer 7? No More Heros!? Lollipop Chainsaw!?! Huh, she sure seems to Suda 51, doesn't she.

Copper Plate said...

Spike was also a boy in a Colgate Dr. Rabbit cartoon. Yeah.

Copper Plate said...

Also, Toa Nokama is best pony.

Jecht said...

And that's just animation - no video games. One of Tara Strong's biggest roles is Rikku in FFX.

Raibys said...

I mistook one of the pictures to be Accelerator from the "To Aru Majutsu no Index" series, which isn't even dubbed yet. :P (not that anyone here's probably heard of that show anyway. :/)

@Flutterfan

@Flutterfan

She also voiced The Ancient Noh Mask and Urasue. And that's not the only InuYasha/Pony connection.

Voice Director Terry Klassen played Hatchi the Raccoon Dog (Miroku's sometime servant) and the cursed Hell painter.

Richard Ian Cox (Inuyasha himself) played Snails.

Scott McNeil (Koga the Wolf-Demon) played Chief Thunderhooves.

tymime said...

And no credit to the guy who posted the exact same thing about Tara Strong on Ponychan a week ago? >_>
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/tymime/ts.png

Snakefire41 said...

Rariy is naomi from deathnote... spike is N... and the singing voice of pinkie is Misa

MiColt said...

Didn't Tara also voice Bon Bon? Always see people posting comments about how she did those 2-3 lines for that character in her regular speaking voice.

clairedelune said...

Tabitha Saint-Germain, Kazumi Evans, and Shannon Chan-Kent all also voice characters in a lot of the Barbie movies.

nanapuff said...

Tara Strong also voiced Cindy McPhearson from The Boondocks.

Morangue Pine said...

Tabitha St. Germain does not voice Zecora, that is Brenda Crichlow
