Kaneto has this soft spoken tone, but you tell the powerful presence that shows that he's the boss of the Black Moon Kingdom before Wiseman showed up and the hidden instability of his true lust based mental deterioration of this broken man. Mamoru has a regal and confident tone to his voice, but it hides the fact he's a spoiled brat that used to having his own world. Robert has this deep and detached tone and definitely captures the depraved lustful stalker side of the character, but it also gives the hint that he was a noble person both he warped by Wiseman. Matthew is very good with having a confident and tone that always makes the characters that he voices have a powerful presence that this is a badass guy you don't want to mess with (I'm talking Jotaro, Levi, Sinbad, Kiritsugu and Law here). It's also the voice that has a noble and compassionate side no matter what kind of character it is. Personally, it's one of the rare cases where each voice I actually find all fitting for the type of portrayal that they convey rather than favoring some over others.
Matt Mercer dubbed like about 3 characters that were originally voiced by Shiozawa himself. Zato-1 from the Guilty Gear series and Rei from the Fist of the North Star series. He was excellent for Shiozawa, for sure.
Robert has such a good deep and regal voice that makes you believe he is royalty. He's what I grew up with. Matthew has a powerful voice that's suitable for any prince. It's no wonder why he played more princes. Both are great. I don't prefer one over the other.
Fun fact: Robert Bockstael also played as Mr. Dupree in the Disney Channel Series "The famous Jet Jackson." I had to look it up since his photo looked so familiar. Lol, I didn't even know
Yeah but Dic likes ruining young adult anime by turning them into kids cartoons. The male villains in SM are so sexy (shitennou, demande, Saphir, Amazon trio)
Robert Bockstael actually had a really pleasing voice I think is very fitting of the character. Matthew Mercer is a great follow up that I"m not sure who I like more.
If only Shiozawa didn't die, he would've lived longer and get involved in other anime series, like Fullmetal Alchemist, Fairy Tail, Fire Emblem, Jojo, Demon Slayer, or any others.
Anyone notice that the new voice for Demande is named Mamoru? That is so cool. His Crystal voice and Matthew Mercer are perfect for his character: obsessed with a woman he cannot have and drunk with power, but at the same time thinking he's the hero. It's like Prince Nuada from the Hellboy universe.
I really liked all the voices for prince diamond, but my favorite voice actor for him is robert bockstael from the dic dub version. He was really great as prince diamond, even though the dic dub version of sailor moon was so cheesy and hilarious too. Matthew also does a great job as prince diamond too in the viz dub version of sailor moon too.
For the Japanese, definitely the late Kaneto Shiozawa. The English choice was difficult. I really enjoyed Robert Bockstael's performance for Demande, and yet, I do like Matthew Mercer's take as well.
I agree, I grew up with Robert's version of the character but nonetheless Matthew is amazing! I have no complaints; admiration for all the voice actors who played Prince Diamond. 😍
I liked Kaneto Shiozawa's voice in the Japanese dub he is known for the voice as Rupa in Urusei Yatsura movie 5: the final chapter, D in Vampire Hunter D, Rei in Fist of the North Star and he also voiced Aramis in Dogtanian and the three Muskehounds also known as Wan Wan Sanjushi
as a fan of miyano mamoru obviously i am biased but both japanese seiyuu portrayed the character well to convey their true colours. those who dont like the younger seiyuu need to know how he is not too young, before crystal he has been cast as both hero, villain, and antihero since 2003 and gained popularity through the role of.....light yagami......that should say something abt how talented he has been and always will be
Mamoru's definitely the guy who should voice Link from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, with Yuri Lowenthal as the English voice with the American accent. That Link was a son of the knight whose wife became a widow before she died in the Kokiri Forest at the time of the Hyrulean Civil War. Both his parents died in the conflict, and that made him a war orphan. He was a peasant boy who was born to the knights who weren't nobility or royalty, and he wasn't born as a prince. He's connected to Princess Zelda and the Royal Family of Hyrule 'cause of the Link and Zelda from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword being their ancestors.
I know I'm in the minority, but while I like all the voice actors, I like Mamoru Miyano most of all. Of the four he sounds the youngest, and it's really missed in the other portrayals that this guy is an upstart, not a timeless noble. I also admit Viz's dub Matt Mercer is an improvement on the old dub. (No, not EVERYthing Viz does is bad.) That said, I wish Demande were played in the English versions with someone with a higher register. I see why it's done thay way in the Japanese version, but in English it just makes the character sound older than he's supposed to be.
I think the English Viz dub dialogue with Matt is better but even with the awkward dialogue of the original English DiC dub Robert still puts in a good performance. If Robert had better dialogue to work with I'd be hard pressed to say whether he or Matt was better.
I don't really have any complaints about Robert in fact I think that was one of Dic's Better casting decisions,but I have to go with Matthew he had a more powerful voice
I grew up with the DiC dub, Robert's voice will always be my absolute favorite! some youtubers really need to do a Google search. I hate watching clips with Robert as Diamond and they credit Matt as the VA. How dare you, don't insult the original Diamond like that! 😛😛😛
I don't know which version of Prince Demande is even dumber, character and story-wise. Is it the original Japanese version or the DiC English version of the character?! Either way, I actually find his character in the manga and the Crystal version to be a bit more psychotic, smarter and creepier than in the original 90's anime.
But the DiC dub had him creepy too, in spite of everything else. I still remember that kidnapping part on the episode where they arrive in Crystal Tokyo.
@Ryu Lee THANK YOU! As much as I enjoy the actor's performances as the dark-hearted prince, Demande himself is one of the worst characters in Sailor Moon. He possibly murdered countless of innocent lives (including a child in the manga), threw his brother under the bus, and tried to sexually assault Usagi (Sailor Moon) whenever he got the chance. And what's worse is that the most of the fans still simp or sympathize him. ABSOLUTELY UNFORGIVABLE!! Demande could have been a well-written underrated villain but no, he's just a Judge Claude Frollo wannabe who's only likable because of his looks.
I just can't get behind Miyano... I am too used to Demande's voice being deep & rugged, either by Shiozawa or Bockstael. Between Miyano & how they drew the character for Cyrtsal, Demande comes off way too young, and reminds me way too much of Lelouch from Code Geass. Not saying Miyano isn't sexy in his own way, but just not for this character. Blargh. Doesn't work for him.
Both english actors are awesome. Can't pick a favorite. However the changing of the names in the new dub pisses me off. Esmerald. Sahfyer. WTF? ITS EMERALD AND SAPHIRE! AND PRINCE DIAMOND!!!!! The Japanese pronunciations sound so stupid in the English dub!!!!!!
I also rly hate how Viz botched their names & ruined the whole “jeweled gems” theme for the Black Moon Clan that the DiC dub did. The DiC dub did a rly great job keeping them relatable to jeweled gems (honestly) & the DiC VAs were perfectly suited for the characters’ personas too!!

Mamoru Miyano's voice used to scare the shit out of me.
oh dear lord, Robert's voice just makes me melt...
@@_Anyastarr ruclips.net/video/6VtEqOIjqic/видео.html So fitting...
I just melt when I hear his prince diamond voice
Ikr, it was amazing
Simps.
Robert's voice as Prince Diamond made me crush on him.
Im only hearing Matthew Mercer for the first time now and he is pretty good.
Demande Voice actors ranked from oldest to youngest
1. Kaneto Shiozawa (Original)(1954-2000) RIP
2. Robert Bockstael (DiC)(1960-)
3. Matthew Mercer (Viz)(1982-)
4. Mamoru Miyano (Crystal)(1983-)
How did I get a crush on Robert Bockstael’s voice of Diamond?! I still do. 😂His voice is Gooooddddd. So good.
Robert has such a good deep and regal voice that makes you believe he is royalty. He's what I grew up with. Matthew has a powerful voice that's suitable for any prince. It's no wonder why he played more princes. Both are great. I don't prefer one over the other.
is it weird that i find it ironic that smc demande's voice actor named MAMORU ?
Not really.
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
Yeaaah))))
Why didn't they name one Seyia Kou
Saint seyia actor does Dimand voice and proves Seyia kou is evil
Fun fact: Robert Bockstael also played as Mr. Dupree in the Disney Channel Series "The famous Jet Jackson."
I had to look it up since his photo looked so familiar. Lol, I didn't even know
Man I miss Kaneto I grew up as a kid hearing his voice without even knowing who he was.
There were like several other roles that I never knew Kaneto played
this anime is not for kids. this is for grown up girls, cuz all the male characters voices are so dangerous ~ addictive!
Preach.
Maybe that's why DIC didn't dub the rest of the episodes until fan demand and Cartoon Network cut in.
Yeah but Dic likes ruining young adult anime by turning them into kids cartoons. The male villains in SM are so sexy (shitennou, demande, Saphir, Amazon trio)
Well......
@@sparklegirl1006 DiC didn't ruin her!!
Robert Bockstael actually had a really pleasing voice I think is very fitting of the character. Matthew Mercer is a great follow up that I"m not sure who I like more.
Ok i will be honest both English version were good. I am glad that they decided to use a similar voice as the original English version.
Robert's voice was more pretentious. Definitely fit the character being of royalty.
My exact thoughts!
Indeed.
Matthew Mercer has played three princes so far, hasn't he? He was Chrom from Fire Emblem Awakening, and Ryoma from Fire Emblem Fates.
he was also leon scott kennedy, resident evil in sailor moon
Don't forget Tygra from ThunderCats.
@@eamonndeane587 i am shook
He’s also Levi in AOT
His japanese dub voices leon in same game
4:30 - Is what I am here for.. Robert's voice melts me
Prince Diamond's Dic voice is HOT!!!! Robert ftw!!!
I thought it was Adam West.
Oooh yes!! He's hot🥰🥰🥰
Robert and Matthew were just amazing as Prince Diamond.
Robert Bockstael is awesome.
If only Shiozawa didn't die, he would've lived longer and get involved in other anime series, like Fullmetal Alchemist, Fairy Tail, Fire Emblem, Jojo, Demon Slayer, or any others.

Yes. He's the Japanese voice actor for Light Yagami from Death Note and Ultraman Zero.
+drixg555 And Zero Kiryuu in Vampire Knight. Meanwhile Jadeite is Kaname.
@@drixg555 don't forget Biznella in Gingaman
Yes I love Mamoru he voices one of my favourite characters
Poor puppy boy
Robert's voice is great.
Omg Robert 😍 I’ve always had a thing for Diamond from the DiC dub
I blame this guy for my thing for mind control... ;;
Right? : o
Robert Bockstael is awesome.
I really liked all the voices for prince diamond, but my favorite voice actor for him is robert bockstael from the dic dub version. He was really great as prince diamond, even though the dic dub version of sailor moon was so cheesy and hilarious too. Matthew also does a great job as prince diamond too in the viz dub version of sailor moon too.
I think they're both so good in English, but I would give the win to Robert.
Shiozawa, Bockstael and Mercer are all perfect really.
It’s rather interesting to hear Miyano and Mercer as Diamond.
"There's no such thing as love....................
NOW LUV MEEEEEE AND LOOK INTO MAH AAAAAIEE."
Kaneto Shiozawa also does the voice as D in the 1986 anime Vampire Hunter D and also voices Rei in the 1984 anime series Fist of the North Star
M'Quve in Gundam and Devimon in Digimon Adventure too.
@@MaximilianoAedo and he also did voice as Aramis in Dogtanian and the three Muskehounds also known as Wan Wan Sanjushi
For the Japanese, definitely the late Kaneto Shiozawa.

Mine would be Gray Fox/Cyborg Ninja/Deepthroat from Metal Gear
He's honestly the only one in the series where I can't decide what voice of him I prefer the most cuz all of 'em were Soo perfect 😚😣😌
Mathew Mercer my man 😍😍😍
Robert for suuuuure.
as a fan of miyano mamoru obviously i am biased but both japanese seiyuu portrayed the character well to convey their true colours. those who dont like the younger seiyuu need to know how he is not too young, before crystal he has been cast as both hero, villain, and antihero since 2003 and gained popularity through the role of.....light yagami......that should say something abt how talented he has been and always will be
Bockstael had a sexy voice.
Alyssa Stehle Hey that's Levi!
Agreed!
If you watch Attack on titans , imagine Levi ( Matthew Mercer ) , saying this stuff you too.
to you too*
Kaneto Shiozawa died in 2000.
All I can hear with Matt Mercer’s Prince Diamond is Yusuke from Persona 5.
I’m not complaining at all.
I hear a softer Jotaro
Well,well,I've seen you've finally fallen for me,Miss Moon!
Never would've guessed Macready would've voiced him! lol
I like both Robert Bockstael and Matthew Mercer.
Robert sounded HOT as Diamond!
I can't help but imagine that SMC Demande is just an alternate version of Riku who embraced the darkness when listening to Mamoru's version.
How many people here couldn't stop crying when diamond sacrifice his life when he saved sailor moon life?
Not really it sucked but didn't cry.
Irony is that Demande in crystal was voiced by *Mamoru* (Miyano). I prefer that voice - more lustful and possesing of power
Robert Bockstael....Best..... Prince Diamond.... Voice.... Actor......Ever!!!
Mamoru Miyano- chan!😍💕
Mamoru's definitely the guy who should voice Link from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, with Yuri Lowenthal as the English voice with the American accent. That Link was a son of the knight whose wife became a widow before she died in the Kokiri Forest at the time of the Hyrulean Civil War.

Oh my god Matt 😍💕
Yes, Matthew!! He was a great Kiritsugu and Mikisugi, I knew he'd be great :D
Matthew mercer voiced Levi Ackerman and now when i here his other roles all i can think about is Levi 😂😭
Akari All I can think about is Joker from Black Butler..
Is he going to do the ORA ORA ORA thing with his fists?
Akari all I think about is Chrom and Ryoma
Kaneto Shiozawa and Metthew Mercer
Robert.
If evil why hot
Robert & Matthew sound very similar but I like Matthew a bit better.
Japanese = Light Yagami
English = Levi
English= Chrom and Ryoma
Crystal Japanese= Ryuji Sakamoto
Crystal English= Yusuke Kitagawa
Dang, I commented this about a while ago and still got replies. Thanks for the info, even though I don't really get the reference. Hehe
@@akeyrtainment8507 They're both protagonists in Persona 5
i think Matthew Mercer is the best Demande!
Matthew Mercer is the best
Matt...💎❤
English is my 1 Favorite ❤❤❤
RIP Kaneto Shiozawa
Robert Bockstael (DiC) makes him sound like a corrupt businessman like the ones we see in spanish soap operas.
And American ones, too, though the American ones also have that slice of "sexual predator" mixed in (Spanish one might too).
I know I'm in the minority, but while I like all the voice actors, I like Mamoru Miyano most of all. Of the four he sounds the youngest, and it's really missed in the other portrayals that this guy is an upstart, not a timeless noble.

Matthew Mercer had the sexiest and best voice!
Star Song MLP *HAD?!
Matthew mercer and mamoru miyano aka two guys from persona 5
I don't really have any complaints about Robert in fact I think that was one of Dic's Better casting decisions,but I have to go with Matthew he had a more powerful voice
i may of had a crush on the dic's version.....WHAT ARE U TEACHING KIDS DIC lmao

Agreed!! Robert was the best diamond ever!!
Crystal Prince Diamond sounds like James from Pocket Mosters.
by coincidence, Miyano also voiced Okabe from Steins Gate who's memorable for saying I'm So Cool! Sonabitch!
He also voiced Leo from Fire Emblem: Fates, Flynn Scifo from Tales of Vesperia, and Oda Nobunaga from Nobunaga the Fool.
Don't underestimate me! take this! Uhh! Aaaaaaah! (Prince diamond uses his beam)
Mathew Mercer does the voice of my fallout 4 husband Maccready
Do a video about all the voice actors for all sailor moon crystal characters pls!!
So it's confirmed prince demande is ling yao
So you're re-covering Chibi-Usa as Black Lady, despite already covering her in the Chibi-Usa video?
TMX1138 He already did that. He just had to remake the comparison video because he wasn't given the right photos of the voice actors back then.
7:09
Hey 0.12 what is a soundtrack name ?
2:24 ohayo gozaimasu!
So Levi Ackerman and Prince Demande are played by the same person?
I'm sorry my sweet Darien but... TEAM DIAMOND 😍

Prince Diamond is really creepy and cringy. He can't force Serena to make her in love with him. Also, Robert and Matthew are good.
