    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.

    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.

      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 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.

      @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.

      Demande IS young. That's half the point of his character.

    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!!!!!!

      Either say "Esmeraude" or "Emerald", not some strange mixture of the two!

      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!!
