>>290482611Autobots, transform and rollout
>>290482727Japanese G1 is a thing and the unicron trilogy were anime that was translated, so close enough.
>>290481565See you later, space cowboy.
>Cullen frequently referenced the quote when speaking to audiences and cited it as part of the inspiration behind the sonorous voice of the leader of the Autobots. It was a piece of advice he said was shared by his brother, a captain in the Marine Corps, before he auditioned for the role of a "hero truck.">"I'm going to an audition. I'm auditioning to be a truck," Cullen told the audiences at a 2023 TFcon fan event. "I said, 'But Larry, he's a hero truck.' And, his face got somber and he said, 'Peter, if you're going to be a hero, be a real hero. Don't be a Hollywood hero type with the yelling and screaming. Be strong enough to be gentle.'Even if it was just a cartoon, he embodied true heroism for a lot of people
>>290481565Fuck this gay earth

>>290482125Sci fi channel
>>290481565REQUESTING PIN PLEASE MODS!
R.I.P. While he did far more work for non-anime things, his promotional work for Toonami did an amazing job of getting kids to watch it.

I miss when CN had blocks with their own distinct identity instead of just spamming reruns until adultswim comes on.
>>290485638I miss when TV networks had some sense of a soul too.I occasionally just skim through the TV schedules online and get really depressed at how far they've fallen
Rest in Glory Peter, Rest well....
>>290481565>tfw no optimus
>>290483846Seconding this request.
I hate it here....
>>290481565There better be a fucking sticky on /co/ at least or I swear to god I'mma fucking lose it
>>290481565You forgot his biggest anime dub role, Ramrod in Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs.https://youtu.be/76vyMMqURaU?si=Z6BS6g-HykDMdlhlIf you can think of a better voice for a robot cowboy, I'd like to hear it.
>>290481565Respect. He was my childhood.
>>290486985I give him a pass on that because he was in the age group that actually had to be worried about the chink virus.
>>290486985I know you posted this for attention, but all the sameFuck off and never come back
>>290481565I feel a bit sad.
>>290487251No, fuck off. I'm no mood for your clown ass today
>>290482878Those were in Japanese, so he wasn't in those.
>Optimus is deadGod damnithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsxTvPtz2_4

>>290487506Ooo, edgy. Take this last (you) and learn some basic human decency you fucking child
>>29048156585 is a ripe age. my dad's almost 70 and i can see it coming at any time
>>290487711Stay strong anon.
>>290481565I didn't know the name but I know the voice. His voice was quite iconic. These promos are pretty great though, the drum and bass playing during the promo really does set the time they were recorded.
>>290481565Aaand that's 3Man, what a week!
>>290487895>3*4 >week*month >>290486829
>>290481565Whether it was promos or character voicework everything he did commanded your attention. Larger than life performances, we lost a real one.

>>290488199Proof or bullshitting?
May his wisdom light the Matrix...til all are one...
>only on toon/a/mi!I wish they brought him back for the toonami reboot, but I guess he was never in the budget. I'm sure they will have a tribute to him this week or next though.
>>290481565>that tieNever heard his work but he seems like a man of taste.
>>290488854They brought him back for the Gundam Wing anniversary promo a few years back.https://youtu.be/OW7GYCbu6Os?si=JvS1QolHnvg1hBgs
>>290489238you've never heard Optimus Prime speak? where do you live, Germany? I hear the krauts compulsively dub everything
>>290488854This promo of his is forever burned into my brain, and frankly still makes me hyped for frankly weak archttps://youtu.be/By_e1fuzag0?si=3Ct4tAcu_KC86oxl
>>290489331>Treize is voiced by Megatron>Duo by Dinobot/RatrapI honestly miss Ocean Group
>>290489772Ocean actually made a full dub of DBZ kai a few years ago but YTV never bought it.
>>290482161Transformer is /a/
>>290489929YTV are faggots
>>290489977I didn't say it wasn'tit is admittedly borderlineI don't think the thread should be deleted, but I don't expect it's going to get a sticky either
>>290481565I'll never forget being a child when these commercials aired and got the anime ball rolling for me. God damn it. Rest in peace Peter, you magnificent bastard.

>>290490394I'm not going to engage in a pointless argument in a solemn thread but this is really low reading comprehension

>>290481565RIP ;__;7
>>290481565> Dolly Parton does at 80> Tim Curry dies at 80> Peter Cullen dies at 85> 350+ people die in a giant flood near Nepal with another 1,100 missing > All in 3 fucking daysFUCK THIS WEEK
>>290486715kek
>>290486985what the fuck are you talking about
F
>>290489772>>290489929They also dubbed Dragon Quest Dai no Daibouken which was on BBC in 2022.Don't know what they've done most recently
>>290492908>with another 1,100 missingFrankly after seeing the footage I don't think those people had much chance of survival.RIP
>>290492908>all these deathsWhy did /a/ do it?
>>290492908Who cursed this week? 2020 part 6 (or is it part 7?) is showing itself.
>>290482611AUTOBOTS, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT
>>290481565watched so much trsnsformers this year.. so many people dying.. F Peter
>>290482611Autobots, rollout!
>>290481565He was a great voice actor, he will be missedI would have loved to hear him in dubs
>>290481565By sheer coincidence I've been watching random Transformers G1 episodes on YT the past week. Rip King.
>>290482301Shut up bitch, you anti-western roaches are not gonna like what's coming
>>290495295I'm an American, retard. Dubs are for fucking golems that can't read efficiently and swallow corn syrup all day while hitting their vape pen like a fucking chimp. All of you pieces of shit should just quit pretending to "like anime" when you simply like a couple at most that were deemed marketable to your demographic as a kid.You fucking retards are everywhere and intensely obvious.
>>290481565why does he sound like George Lowe lol
>>290495261>G-d
Transformers is in weird limbo but fuck it he counts as /a/ also Eeyore is my homieF
>>290481565I heard he was Optimus Prime, but he was the Toonami announcer too? Fuck
>>290482301Kill yourself
>>290492908I used to think flash floods happened in seconds, until I grew up and learned it took much longer even up to hours. Then I saw the Nepal flash flood video happening like I imagined as a kid... god damn.
>>290492908>>290496145shit was crazyA massive building dusted in a moment. those people didnt have a chance.
>>290482266Zoomy zoomy zoomer zooooom!
>>290483836muh nigga. I only remember watching Ronin Warriors and Sailor Moon on Sci Fi though.
>>290481565I know it became a meme but Toonami was so fucking awesome I’m forever grateful to CN for running that and the geniuses that put together these sickass promos. I’ll be hearing Cullen’s voice in my head for the rest of my life. RIP
>>290482611RIP
>>290481565Genuine F, damn. Rip.
>>290482266You born in 2005 as well?>>290487408Eh, it was originally made by a Japanese toy company and the 86 movie was animated by toei. Close enough.
Speaking of the 86 movie, it’s almost been a year since Ron Friedman passed away.
>>290492908RIP Tim Curryidk if he did any anime dub work but he was a god regardless
R O B O T Shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kziSDTpAaOAYou gotta admit the old bumpers had style.
>>290498604Oh SHIT he played Slagar?? What a legend
>>290486957Can't forget his anime dub role as Voltron's narratorhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ub5bl2QNHPw
>>290496145Flash floods can happen that way if it's in a desert. That's one of the reasons why they're so scary, you can be miles away from a cloud and suddenly water and debris comes rushing at you in a narrow canyon.
>>290498604He played the King in The Cat Returns.
>>290498604Only tangentally anime-related, but you can't forget his best dub role.
I’m already dreading the day where frank welker passes away.
His Toonami bumpers were my childhood. F.
>>290481565Damn, can't believe we lost Optimus Prime in these dark times. RIP.>>290498764Another beloved piece of my childhood.
>>290489929>DBZMcNeil(Mighty is he!) will allways be best Picolo.
>>290499102I think him and Jim Cummings are the only Golden Age VAs left. Maybe Mark Hamil.
>>290498900This kinda makes me wanna give the "Gridman" dub, a chance
>>290482611Till all are one
>>290498764Yeah, that's one of those unforgettable childhood memories of mine. And even as a little kid with barely the concept of voice actors, I could tell it was the same voice as Optimus Prime.
>>290481565I don't know this person, but if Genda Tessho were to pass away, I would feel just as sad as you all do. So, RIP.
>>290495929He did all the promos. Steve Blum was the robot guy.
>>290495929And the narrarator for Voltron
>>290481565Everyone's dying...RIP, actual legend.
>>290481565Blessed are those who die of old age and with hair
>>290492908This says more about what a fucking pathetic faggot you are, you are hooked on social media and eat up celebrity shit like cattle, especially since Dolly Parton death is a shill circus.The Nepal thing especially, no one would give a fuck about that it it happened 20 years ago.
its raining

>>290486829Kairi's VA is also dead so this is even sadder
>>290481565A great tragedy.Not the death I dunno the guy and he's 85 not 35 so it was his time anyway, but introducing Americans to anime.
>>290481565 Shouldn't this be in >>>/co/? .
>>290481565Deaths really do come in threes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSPW48O8p7gPeter could make anything sound appealing to my child brain.
>>290489649>where do you live, Germany?Close but no cigar. Other side of the Rhine. I think I'll buy the same tie, it's such a classic design.
>>290481565I'm actually devastated. I don't care about anime dubs, but he was an actually talented voice actors unlike the hacks who voice anime.I'm gonna miss him so much.
Rest in piece you legend. You will be missed
>>290506197yeah same. Peter is what most English voice actors should attain for in terms of quality unlike that one fat asian retard who thinks he's a god in voice acting
>>290481565His voice is insane, RIP, thanks for enriching our lives with your work.
>>290481565>dubshit literally whoI sleep
>>290495929He was also The Predator.
>>290493447Supermarket age gap romance is one they did recent and have they done new Gintama movie from Netflix.
>>290500007
>>290499915If it happened 20 years ago it'd be called a tsunami in Sri LankaWhich a lot of people gave many fucks about
>>290506197>>290507638Steve Blum?
>>290481565GG
>>290493447That was from Bluewater(Ocean Group little brother studio) I have heard the dub was pretty good.

>>290481565R.I.P I have great nostalgic memories of those times. Especially with DBZ.
>>290481565F
>Tim Curry>Peter CullenIt's funny how neither one was an "A-List" celebrity and yet both left their mark on the world to such an extent that they were kind of tsken for granted and theor absence was felt immedieatly.
>>290506197Him and the guy who voiced Metabee in the Eng Dub are the only good voice actors in English imo. And Peter Cullen was really fucking talented.
>>290490099Dreamwave really had my favourite artstyle Everyone was so swole
>>290495430>I'm an American Don't get so uppity towards your betters.
>>290481565>geberationI chuckled.
>>290520496>Tim CurryHis Hook totally destroyed Peter Pan with facts and logic.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOAhePxUXZQ&t
>>290481565Optimus really is one of the greatest characters ever.The patriarch archetype is basically extinct now. I can only really think of Goku and Gintoki when it comes to modern anime. Everybody else are just insecure teens and kids "coming of age".
>>290520940Lol, he really went>YWNBAM
>>290520496Curry and Cullen are A-List talent. Both of them achieved well in voice acting and theater(Curry did both).
>>290518087This line hits even harder now. Fuck...
Peter Cullen deserves an Medal of Freedom and mural there including his brother who made him to motivate on getting that role as Optimus Prime.
>>290482611AUTOBOTSROLLOUT!
