Its weird because linda young was in super doing babas voice. I dont know why she just didnt do frieza and stay with dragon ball. It was a dumb idea to have her replaced. Smh
She’ll always be the most nostalgic voice of my favorite anime villain. Chris was also a great VA for Frieza, and he’s still missed, but I just like Linda more.
@@VERT1220 are you serious although a woman's voice it made freeza even more scary in his lines and laughter, she is the original voice actor, the super dub made freeza sound sloppy and a little bit girlish, she gave freeza life something the latest voice actor failed to do
@@norbertorivera9791 I don’t care what frieza she was. She was terrible. She made him sound like he smoked 8 packs a day since birth. It was more annoying than scary.
@@norbertorivera9791 and a woman has nothing to do with it. Trunks and goten have woman actors and they’re totally fine. Along with Killua and Gon from HunterXHunter. She’s just bad in my opinion.
@@user-nd7rd8jo6h de hecho, amo a ambos, aunque me gusta más Linda porque esa es la primera voz de freezer que escuché y es icónica, ella realmente hizo un buen trabajo con freezer, Chris Ayres también fue increíble, aunque me tomó algo de tiempo acostumbrarme
I love yuyu hakusho i wish theyd release the rest of it on netflix. yuyu hakusho was actually way better than DBZ storywise and made a better point of scaling than DBZ did. interestingly it did actually recieve higher ratings in Japan, but dragon ball was more popular in america
Finally, people that really respect Linda Young's Frieza voice. I always liked her voice the best because it's the most iconic one and Frieza has had that voice for such a long time. Changing it to a guy was weird for me because it sounded like Frieza was finally hitting puberty.
It's kind of a mixed bag. She sounds kinda weird and silly if you try to look at it from an outsider perspective. It'd be cool af to have her around again, but really more for nostalgia than anything. It took me a good while to get used to Chris Ayres' interpretation, but I've long since fallen in love with it, and Daman Mills is incredible at how uncannily similar he sounds as his replacement.
@@Taima honestly all the newer takes on Frieza kind of sound like a Bond villain but a little fruity, Linda's delivery truly sounded alien to me, and quite a bit more sinister at that. It's hard to say somethings not nostalgia when you grew up with it but I really think she just nailed the role.
@@TaimaAll of that is your opinion. What it simply comes down to is preference. As most have already commented. Linda’s voice sounded more Alien/a creature compared to Chris who sounded British for our taste. Keep in mind Linda was chosen by professionals. So to say the voice is silly is more subjective rather than objective.
From a child’s perspective of Friezas old voice makes you wonder “what IS frieza”? He goes from looking feminine alien child baby, to basketball player, to alien, back to child like small form with the hard to identify voice. I think Linda’s voice leaves much more to the imagination.
The best Frieza voice in my opinion. As kids, we didn’t know if Frieza was a boy or girl watching at first so the male/female alien voice was perfect! A mixture of both
I hated how she discarded her final form voice in later outings, though. It was CHILLINGLY good, like an androgynous snake - you would not be able to place if it was male or female just from hearing some lines.
Linda Young Will ALWAYS be my Frieza. No one can hit that monkey insult like her and that laugh is ICONIC. Like Mark’s laugh with Joker. Man do we need Linda back for Super and Stephanie for Kid Goku and Teen Gohan in games.
Linda's Frieza isn't a typical anime voice. She sounds cruel, selfish, and vindictive. Ayres was a much more regal sound. I've always maintained that Young does the *character* far better. No hate to Chris' fans but Young offers more depth through her choices than Chris or Daman do.
I legitimately can't comprehend her face making Freeza's voice, im so used to the anime lol. She does look like she enjoys it though and i hope she has fun with such a role.
Idk why that made me smile so much. I can’t even imagine how much VAs get asked to do lines for people and it’s so kind of them and impressive for them to just do it on the spot for fans.
For a certain generation of fans who watched the Funimation English dub, her Frieza will always be remembered. I've got no complaints about the new actors, though.
I really wish I had got to meet Chris. My only interactions with him were on twitter. I never got to meet him at a con or do a video chat with him. I really wish I did. R.I.P
Still the classic Frieza to me. Linda is such a treasure for voicing both him in DBZ (plus her hilarious portrayal of Baba in OG DB) and Genkai in Yu Yu Hakusho.
I was surprised she voiced Genkai for the YYH OVA since I thought the reason she stopped dubbing anime characters starting with Frieza in DBZ Kai was because she either retired or passed on from old age.
@@KaiKrimson56 She was going to reprise Frieza for Kai but she wasn’t able to keep her delivery of his lines based on the scripts in pace so she stepped down. Her laughter as Frieza when he's destroying Planet Vegeta is retained in the first episode of Kai.
While I can't say one way or the other, I'm sure the money they make for it makes it easier. A lot of times they'll allow you to record the VA saying a line but they'll charge you even more.
BRING LINDA BACK!!! and RIP Chris, you never disappointed with your voice overs! We loved you as much as linda! But frieza belongs to the two of you in my heart.
Linda Young, along with the Bruce Falconer music, during the Frieza arc of DBZ was perfect! I can understand the divisiveness here, cause Frieza (despite being voice casted wrong for looking like a female, I heard) in the early days of DBZ with Linda Young was kinda a different type of character, and the Up to date Frieza from DBS with Chris Ayres was a totally new character and setup, so for me, that was perfect too! I loved them both as a Frieza voice!
Chris was more faithful to how Freeza was originally characterized and voiced in Japanese, but Linda, despite having initially been brought on to imitate Pauline Newstone (the first English VA for Freeza), really gave her own distinct spin on Freeza while still maintaining the spirit of the character's sadistic evilness.
Ohhh myy goooosh the nostalgia from that laugh! New voice is fitting and fantastic but i will FOREVER have a spot in my heart for this voice for Frieza!
Considering this is clearly at a convention and Frieza is the biggest picture on display right behind her, I doubt she was annoyed. At least about doing the iconic voice. If anything she was probably mentally getting into character.
Linda is such a sweetheart. I met her at Augusta Anime Fest a couple of months back and she was just wonderful. I went as Yusuke and we got to have a bit of dialogue together.
i was just watching Genkai fight the clown in the dark tournament and was like NO WAY! Genkai and Freeza are the same voice actor :O i didnt notice it until she turned it up in a fight
Now I have to imagine how she looked like in the studio when she had to record Frieza’s transformations (and accompanying screams of agony and rage) during the Namek/Frieza saga😂🧐🤔
At first I was sad that she was replaced, but Chris's version grew on me and now hearing her do his lines feels as weird as when I first heard Chris do hers.
I wanna hear her take on "BROLY LOOK, IT'S SUCH A TRAGEDY" 🤣🤣🔥🔥
Imagine her saying "Broly look! N-"
@@I-absolveyouofyoursins”be wildin’!”
I was expecting it too lol
Or beerus lol
she couldnt honestly, the new frieza voice is too good
Ah. That's sweet of her. Still has it after all these years later.
I imagine that voice is easier for her to pull off now given her older age lol
She loves doing it.
@@JHEntertainment98she’s an icon and can get it when she wants it, Veronica Taylor has that free work pass for life as well ❤
No wonder I get aroused even though Frieza is a dude char. Cause the actual voice belongs to her.
Why isn’t she doing it still?
I love how she kept the creep factor all the way to the end. Chances are, she still has that smirk on her face.
It comes in through the voice too. It's done for resonance.
She talks to her children this way "Dinner's ready children ha ha haaaa"
@@hrthrhs You're all grounded...FOREVER! Ahahahaha! xD
The true voice of Frieza
Damn right
🙌🏻👑
She is a great Frieza.
@@JHEntertainment98*the
she needs to come back
Love Chris god bless him in heaven but Linda will always be my Frieza
The OG Frieza 🔥
I dont chose one over the other they're both my Frieza
Same

I prefer Chris myself but I love recording Linda doing the voice, she loves doing Frieza and she gives it her all.
@@JHEntertainment98 - Totally. Growing up with DBZ, her voice for the villain was truly great.
I would love if she came back but Chris had really set the mood with his version that idk how they’ll do frieza justice now
@@LittleAngryCarrots - I think whoever voices him in TeamFourStar’s parody should get hired.
@@STH151NicoleFan that’s true. I hadn’t thought about him. A spot on Chris ayres that’s for sure
R.I.P Chris ayres
Time to bring linda young back tho
Fuck no. She was the worst imo.
the one who would be frieza is daman mills his sounds if not the same or just a little different from Chris

Hopefully she’s back now.
Oh shit, I forgot friezas new voice actor passed away. Well, Linda Young is the only replacement that makes sense
@@Bullboy_Adventures There is still Damen Mills whose Frieza voice ss closer the Chris Aryes'
@@docnightmares8291 Yea that’s unfortunate. Hopefully he dies next so they can finally have linda young do frieza again.

@@docnightmares8291 The hell? You have no right telling me what to do. Its called freedom of speech.
Got a cameo for my birthday where she called me a stupid monkey. Best gift ever
Linda voicing Frieza and Bruce Faulconer’s music is the de facto definition of peak DBZ. Nothing will ever beat that.
Y'all remember her as Frieza, she will always hold a special place in my heart as Genkai.
Hey dimwit 😂😂😂 it can be both
She was excellent as both.
Genkai from YYH? Thought it was familiar
Came here hoping I wasn't the only one who thought this.
I love yuyu hakusho i wish theyd release the rest of it on netflix. yuyu hakusho was actually way better than DBZ storywise and made a better point of scaling than DBZ did. interestingly it did actually recieve higher ratings in Japan, but dragon ball was more popular in america
All hail Lord frieza
She is such an important part of what makes Frieza so iconic. She is truly incredible.
RIP Chris Ayres
But Linda Young is the true Frieza voice. Both are GOATS

That’s the original Frieza right there.
Back when I was 8 years old when I first heard frieza voice the original was the best she even sound more like a villain
No, that was Pauline Newstone (RIP).
The original frieza is japanese you idiot
Linda young's voice acting made frieza sound so much more sinister.

Linda Young's Frieza is one of my favourite villains in anything. Movie, television, literature, etc.
She needs to return, there are only two iconic frieza voices the first Linda and second the late Chris
All these Narufans don’t understand how good some of the OGs were. By far, my favorite Frieza. “STUPID MONKEY!”
The best Frieza voice in my opinion. As kids, we didn’t know if Frieza was a boy or girl watching at first so the male/female alien voice was perfect! A mixture of both
I hated how she discarded her final form voice in later outings, though. It was CHILLINGLY good, like an androgynous snake - you would not be able to place if it was male or female just from hearing some lines.
It would be cool to bring back Linda to voice Frieza, crazy that she still has the voice down all these years later.
Linda Young Will ALWAYS be my Frieza. No one can hit that monkey insult like her and that laugh is ICONIC. Like Mark’s laugh with Joker. Man do we need Linda back for Super and Stephanie for Kid Goku and Teen Gohan in games.
Truly iconic and effortless acting ability.
One hell of a star and the best Frieza in my opinion, followed by the insidious ocean dub VA.
Linda's Frieza isn't a typical anime voice.
She sounds cruel, selfish, and vindictive.
Ayres was a much more regal sound. I've always maintained that Young does the *character* far better.
No hate to Chris' fans but Young offers more depth through her choices than Chris or Daman do.
I love Linda’s Frieza but some of my favorite Frieza moments were with Chris’s Frieza and I love the accent he gave Frieza. I still love Linda though.
I hope they bring back Linda for any new movies or when they cover the new super arcs.
It’s most likely going to be Daman Mills who has been subbing for Chris for a few years now.
@@JHEntertainment98 Linda young is better than Daman mills

The time she said "HELLO MONKEYS"
Damn, I was dead for awhile. LMFAO lol😂😂😂
😂
Idk why that made me smile so much.
I can’t even imagine how much VAs get asked to do lines for people and it’s so kind of them and impressive for them to just do it on the spot for fans.
There will never be a better Frieza voice actor than Linda Young 💯
But there has been and even surpassed Linda
Except there was (Chris Ayres) and still is with Daman Mills. At least in my opinion.
imo chris is better, but linda is the OG.
For a certain generation of fans who watched the Funimation English dub, her Frieza will always be remembered. I've got no complaints about the new actors, though.
If you gotta go Dub, you go with Linda. She's just awesome. RIP to Chris Ayres

Lmao bet she's sick of hearing "hey do this line!" Shit every single day 😂
That voice and face at the beginning "...ok tell me when you're ready...😐"
I bet all the actors are tired of that.
Lol whats funny and ironic is that linda young sort of resembles frieza a little bit 🤣🤣🤣

ok you hella weird. Talking about it makes you aroused.
What
Let’s skip that remark,Perfect Cell.
dude wtf
TF you mean aroused 😭
What a queen she’s still got it!
Frieza hasn’t been the same since Linda wasn’t voicing frieza
She was the best frieza voice, absolutely perfect.
They definitely need to recast her as Frieza. She's the only other actor that can truly embody the character.
Why because she white? Is somebody race baiting?
It’s so great to hear her again! Will always love that dub and the faulconer score
The Frieza we all know and love
That voice was the Frieza most of us grew up with! She is absolutely ICONIC!
While I adore Chris Ayers(R.I.P), there will always be something great and nostalgic about Linda Young. It's a different vibe but no less menacing.
BRING LINDA BACK!!! and RIP Chris, you never disappointed with your voice overs! We loved you as much as linda! But frieza belongs to the two of you in my heart.
A truly talented voice actress
this character and genkai she does a damn good job. this woman's voice was legit my childhood before toonami was a thing and especially after.

No offense to Chris Ayres but Linda Young was always the OG Frieza since childhood!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is the Frieza I know
Only person on planet earth that can call me a monkey and not be harmed.
Wow nostalgia just hit me right in the face.
Glad you liked it. I love record voice actors at cons but it isn’t cheap. They do charge a pretty penny for a video
Met her twice so far. She's one of the nicest voice actors you'll meet. Has some fun stories to tell.
BEST FREIZA VOICE OF ALL TIME ALL HAIL LORD FRIEZA 😭😭😭
Frieza Force Unite!
This will always be the best frieza voice.
As Matther of fact is the only voice we can remember 😂
I love Linda Young and. Pauline Newstone. Both were so menacing with the voice
Transports us all back to the legendary times on Namek. Thanks, Laura. The number of times you had to say monkey, still cracks me up.
This is the Frieza I grew up with. But Chris brought a different perspective to the character and should be proud of his work.
I loved Chris’s Frieza. Shame he is no longer with us.
It's definitely a case where both work well for me.
Chris was more faithful to how Freeza was originally characterized and voiced in Japanese, but Linda, despite having initially been brought on to imitate Pauline Newstone (the first English VA for Freeza), really gave her own distinct spin on Freeza while still maintaining the spirit of the character's sadistic evilness.
Her voice for Frieza is so good. It’s so sinister.
This Frieza voice is obviously the superior of them all. Menacing and assaulting on another.
Sounds like he had whooping cough 😂
Ohhh myy goooosh the nostalgia from that laugh! New voice is fitting and fantastic but i will FOREVER have a spot in my heart for this voice for Frieza!
Such a good voice
I just realized she sounds exactly like Rita from Power Rangers
She looked annoyed that a lot of people asked her to do the voice in the beginning
She loves doing it actually.
Considering this is clearly at a convention and Frieza is the biggest picture on display right behind her, I doubt she was annoyed. At least about doing the iconic voice. If anything she was probably mentally getting into character.
She is amazing!!!!!!!❤
The Frieda I grew up with
Frieza you mean?
Bring her back! She makes Frieza sound so much more intimidating! 👌🏼
nice
Man she all made her face look like friezas face and everything
Crazy thing is she actually looks like Frieza 😬
lol oh shit. i literally just said the same thing in one of my other comments 😂😂😂
LOL
Ain't gotta do her like that
That old lady sounded really good, she should get into voice acting
This is the REAL frieza .
Her voice as friezas second form terrified me as a kid
Wait Frieza's VA was a woman?
Whaaaaaaaaaat?
I like how she gives that subtle head nod before she goes into character
The frieza I grew up listening to! Very nostalgic indeed
Absolutely amazing
If you were a dog I’d scratch your belly, if you were a cat I’d give you a milk… wait, wrong voice actress 😂
One of the voices I always remember from my childhood, loved that era of DBZ!
Gen Kai was absolutely her best work. No one could have done that role better
That hello monkey was crazy😂
Will never forget watching DBZ on Toonami right after school and hearing Linda's voice as Frieza. Can't forget she was also Genkai on Yu Yu Hakusho!
Damn, she still got it.
Loved her in DBZ and YuYu Hakusho
She still got it 😭😭
Linda is such a sweetheart. I met her at Augusta Anime Fest a couple of months back and she was just wonderful. I went as Yusuke and we got to have a bit of dialogue together.
