Voice acting is a profession that can be seen throughout the world. From the biggest animes like Death Note, Attack on Titan, Dragon Ball, and Bleach, to video games; voice acting is everywhere. While voice actors may not be as widely recognized as actors, they have respect beyond imagining. Their work ranges drastically from project to project and it can only be a miracle if someone is able to match the voice to their voice actors.
Some of the biggest voice actors earn a great amount of money without ever flashing it or even advertising it a little bit. Their vocal range is as impressive as it can be and no doubt, they earn just as much accordingly. Some are more so impressive than others.
