In Japan, performing
the voice of an canime character is a way to become famous.
Indeed, unlike the West, the stars don't come to dubbing, it's
the celebrity that comes to the dubbers.
Moreover, this phenomenon concerns in Japan both movies and TV series, which is far from the case here.
In general, Japanese dubbers, seiyu in their native language, have other parallel activities, mainly song and cinema.
The presence of a known dubber in the poster of an anime is a real passport of success, so some seyus are objects of worship.
This section is therefore intended to present the "casting" of Escaflowne, and more particularly, some well-known heads in the land of the rising sun.
A good list is always better than a very long speech, here is a summary of the dubbers and their roles.
For practical reasons, the roles are arranged in alphabetical order of the names, and when the names are clickable, you can access a more specific record on the person.
Since some seiyu (Japanese name dubbers) have asssurer several roles, they can be quoted several times.
