I was attached to the old voice and it took me a while to get used to the new one. But now, the higher pitch lets me feel Billy's energy more, and he sounds more attuned with his mannerisms. Less manchild
The old voice is basically more fitting to the Billy that Nicole referred to and apperently Billy has also second group he visits. Nicole doesnt or we dont know he is. (Read Fandom wiki, has the knowledge of Beta aswell) Nicole described him as chaotic but trustful. This trustful side of him can be seen many times when he is shown. Always ready and give his team backup. While new voice more fitting to the cheerful, joyful sillybilly.
Hey Proxies--original Billy VA Michael Schwalbe here. I appreciate how respectful the video and the commenters have been to both myself and the new actor, but I don't appreciate you screenshotting my announcement posts and photos and then making content out of them without any attribution or credit.

I recently learned that Amber Lee Connors is directing the english voiceovers for Zenless Zone Zero and my reaction was 2: - So, that's the person behind this extremely high quality english voiceovers - Damn, I was already a fan of this woman from her work as Furina, she never stops being amazing Zenless english voiceovers are absolutely great, it truly extracts the talent of the voice actors and gives life to the game, it's truly magnificent; But Billy and Nekomata voice actors go a little beyond, they're extremely good
Edit:Damn im famous I prefer the new one Cus it "gives" him more personality To the character and make it more cooler "The reason like the VA" 1.He sound "energetic" or "enthusiastic" But old VA sounds like a normal guy that you put in a normal voice changer. 2.It fits his personality the new voice fits the body so well but the old sound normal😐
Cool billy aperently is canon. Atleast thats how Nicole described him. There are two sides of Billy, fandom wiki with the knowledge of Beta. Wrote that Billy also has another Agency he works for but the cunning hares dont know abt it. This been said. This was probably Hoyo sayin. We prefer sillybilly Over serious billy. And personally i find the beta voice gave billy the Cool voice. Fitting to the mysterious Billy side. While new Billy VA is much more suitable to a Joyful- cheerful character
I actually ended up sticking with English VA for ZZZ because in other languages I found he sounded extremely mundane and totally without that Deadpool energy.
The new VA is Bakugo's Va in MHA, I had no idea until he tweeted it. I love it personally because of the emotion and it fits with how the character is.
Although the old VA has only been with the game for only a few weeks, at least he did very well, which is commendable. Anyway, I really hope Billy's new VA will continue to do what he can do well
They even sound similar, I think ordinary people won't even notice the difference. After all, different emotions are demonstrated in the game and the demo.
It has more mature tone While the new one is more pitched which actually more fitting since he's like has more expression while the old is more charming tbh
The second one is closer to the energy and demeanor of the CN voice (let’s be honest, it’s a game made by a CN company, the CN voice will always be exactly what the designers intended).
@rr840 haha I also thought that Billy sounds like Yuri Lowenthal! He already has a role in a Hoyo game (Dainsleif - Genshin) so I won't be surprised if it's actually him
@@shanedoesyoutube8001 Bakugo in My Hero, he's also Yuri from Fairy Tail, and Connie from Attack on Titan, to say the least. I could go on and on about all he's played
New VA was definitely an upgrade over the last one. I feel his more high pitched and cartoonish sound of speaking fit Billy’s personality a lot better.
Its a pretty common thing for studios to change voice actor's from the preview to the actual release. Like Hazbin Hotel has noticeable differences in the voices of characters like Alastor
I thought I was trippin cause I thought his voice sounded odd to me once I started playing. I prefer the old one personally but the new voice isn’t terrible or anything. I just think the old one sounds more natural.
I'll just say Old voice makes him sound like Dante from Devil May Cry (in tone and acting) And the new voice is like Deadpool (the same, tone ans acting)
Both VAs did a good job but his new VA definitely feels more like Billy Kid but that isn’t a bad thing, some VAs are better suited for some roles than others
The change works way better for how goofy Billy is. Plus it was awesome hearing this voice after just finishing the Duke Of Death and His Maid as I was like “hey it’s him!” Lol
Ok im glad it wasn't just me. When I saw that ad that was "over-animated", I thought, "hey, he sounds different" and after while I started to wonder if he was replaced.
I really liked Billy’s old voice actor and was really sad when I found out he got changed. However, I can’t think of anyone better to recast him than Clifford Chapin (who I believe to be the new one) because his rendition of the character is just as good.
i KNEW they changed voices, but i didn’t really mind because they both sound great (and also very similar, the current one of just higher + more personality)
They both sound awesome and did a great job! If I had to choose which one I’d prefer as hard as that is, I think the higher pitch suits his energy and vibe better to me? Again though, they both did great!
Honestly I like his new voice better because of how much more personality it gives his character, and it portrays his actual personality a lot better, imo anyways
I swear that one line when hovering over him on the Agent screen when he says “I got to guns so.. double the accuracy” sounds like both Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and as something Deadpool would say. Caught me quite by surprise.
They sounds similar but they have diffrent pitches
That's what I thought
Both VAs both did a great job. Both voices fits the personality of Billy.
both are very good, in their own way
He sounds more vibrant, happier
Agreed @@ltcgabe841
new voice fits his “i could be serious but i like being silly instead because it’s more fun” shtick
I was attached to the old voice and it took me a while to get used to the new one. But now, the higher pitch lets me feel Billy's energy more, and he sounds more attuned with his mannerisms. Less manchild
Less manchild being less man, more child. 🤣 understandable. :3
Basically Deadpool
Yeah Deadpool manchildish but the pitch on his previous voice actor is very deep
The old voice is basically more fitting to the Billy that Nicole referred to and apperently Billy has also second group he visits. Nicole doesnt or we dont know he is. (Read Fandom wiki, has the knowledge of Beta aswell)
Nicole described him as chaotic but trustful. This trustful side of him can be seen many times when he is shown. Always ready and give his team backup.

Yeah what this guy said

KAWAKIIIIIIIIIIIII
Crediting twitter posts is such loser behaviour holy
@@PerperTraitor Crediting stuff is never a bad idea
@@PerperTraitor dude this comment is loser behavior.
i do think the newer voice fits him more
@@bronyaenjoyer yea I like the older one
Me too I feel like the new voice fits his goofiness.
agreed
both are fine
@@toastertech1181 we know I just think the higher pitch is perfect
The new VA is from what I heard Clifford Chapin aka the voice of Bakugo Katsuki in MHA
You are correct
I knew from the moment i heard him speak! Made my day lol
Are you positive It isnt ryuji/itto?
@@Crownslayer013 that's who I thought too.
@Crownslayer013 yup I'm positive I don't have Billy in game but I did a Google search and Billy's english VA is indeed Clifford Chapin
Idk about the previous VA but the way the current one says "manager" just makes my heart melt. It's kinda endearing in a way.
I love billy, he's such a trigger happy Teddie bear
ah yes another arc-v lover
THIS
W pfp Arc V Is peak
He is my favorite 😭😭😭
I recently learned that Amber Lee Connors is directing the english voiceovers for Zenless Zone Zero and my reaction was 2:

Zenless english voiceovers are absolutely great, it truly extracts the talent of the voice actors and gives life to the game, it's truly magnificent; But Billy and Nekomata voice actors go a little beyond, they're extremely good
They weren't picked by her, she's directing 1.0 and beyond content. Michael i.e. Billy's original VA was also the director
What no wonder why it so good
seele’s eng va too!!
then v1.1 sokukau and lucy happened.
Old one makes him sound like a cool and fun guy while the new one makes him a Silly Billy in which i dig it more
ill make, you say, how proooouuuuuuddd-
ok im sorry
@@omegagamer8834 I read the damn comment and I knew I would see it bruh
MAKES HIM A WHAT NOW?
SILLY BILLY MENTIONED RAHH I'LL MAKE YOU SAY HOW PROUD YOU ARE OF ME
I can see it.
@@omegagamer8834 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
They want Deadpool to be more Deadpool. Case Closed.
Edit:Damn im famous
I prefer the new one
Cus it "gives" him more personality
To the character and make it more cooler
"The reason like the VA"
1.He sound "energetic" or "enthusiastic"
But old VA sounds like a normal guy that you put in a normal voice changer.
2.It fits his personality the new voice fits the body so well but the old sound normal😐
Yeah it feels more like a "Deadpool" reference and its a great choice to replaced his va
Cool billy aperently is canon. Atleast thats how Nicole described him.
There are two sides of Billy, fandom wiki with the knowledge of Beta.
Wrote that Billy also has another Agency he works for but the cunning hares dont know abt it.
This been said. This was probably Hoyo sayin. We prefer sillybilly
Over serious billy.
And personally i find the beta voice gave billy the Cool voice. Fitting to the mysterious Billy side.
While new Billy VA is much more suitable to a Joyful- cheerful character
@Sixgunnerstudios the older voice was way cooler the newer one gave him a cheeky personality like deadpool.
@@mikazukitunapanggang yes yes yes
Have you seen billy’s demo? The old one sounds pretty cool too, both made an aweasome work
His VA as been announced and it's Clifford Chapin (Bakugo English VA)
I honestly prefer the new one. I just find it better for Billy's character.
I love how the title asks a question, then never actually answers the damn question.
I think Having the higher voice fits a bit better with his antics and goofy attitude.
As someone who's not had access to the Beta, I had no idea, but his old one sounds cooler.
I feel the same energy from both voice actors, but the new one has a higher pitch?
Imo, the new VA fits Billy's energy more than the old VA (both of them are good anyway)
I feel Billy's new VA is a great fit, and I cannot say a thing for the old one. On the topic of the new VA, it's either Max Mittleman or Zeno Robinson
i kinda like the old one better. after all its just like the sonys spiderman debate
@@Darkos88 who voices Billy now?
@@sittingcrowd912 Clifford Chapin
The old one just feels more energetic like him
What surprised me was that both of their voices were very similar, but in terms of dynamism and humor, Billy's original VA did very well
Oh that second one, that’s Clifford Chapin. I know that voice anywhere lol. He’s an amazing VA
Just a guess but they probably wanted him to sound more like Ryan Reynolds, and I totally get why, Billy is very Deadpool coded
I actually ended up sticking with English VA for ZZZ because in other languages I found he sounded extremely mundane and totally without that Deadpool energy.
Sad to hear that but I wish the new VA a great career!
@@EvyDevy he voices bakugo from my hero academia
i heard they hired sound cadence studios, it's actually run by furina's english voice actor
It’s bakugo VA
Honestly that’s so cool to see that the 1st VA had the same energy, just the pitch was different. Honestly both so cool.
The new one really captures Deadpool's personality
The new VA is Bakugo's Va in MHA, I had no idea until he tweeted it. I love it personally because of the emotion and it fits with how the character is.
I feel the same, it's good either ways
Billy's new voice is just energetic to listen to while the old one is just likes its sinking down the drain.
Although the old VA has only been with the game for only a few weeks, at least he did very well, which is commendable.
Anyway, I really hope Billy's new VA will continue to do what he can do well
The new voice has more energy that fits him lmao
Both do well to capture his character, only difference is in the pitch of the voice, so it comes down to personal preference at the end really
They even sound similar, I think ordinary people won't even notice the difference. After all, different emotions are demonstrated in the game and the demo.
I love Billy with both and his childish antics is so adorable! 😸
yeah i noticed that.. i kinda liked the old one more :CCC
It has more mature tone
While the new one is more pitched which actually more fitting since he's like has more expression while the old is more charming tbh
Me too, it sounds more appealing to me
He sounds a little peppier now, which honestly fits his character better
The second one is closer to the energy and demeanor of the CN voice (let’s be honest, it’s a game made by a CN company, the CN voice will always be exactly what the designers intended).
you know what’s crazy I can’t even tell the difference they sound the same 💀
New Billy literally sounds like Ryuji from Persona 5 and Itto from Genshin. If that isn't Max Mittleman I'll be very surprised.
@@oshawottcat it's sounds more like clifford chapin which is the voice for bakugo from mha
It sounds like Clifford Chapin (Bakugo eng va)
@@Drillin_Itoh good I’m not the only one!
@@Keplerite that's who my friends and I have been thinking it is!
@rr840 haha I also thought that Billy sounds like Yuri Lowenthal!
He already has a role in a Hoyo game (Dainsleif - Genshin) so I won't be surprised if it's actually him
The new voice is just straight-up better.
In case yall didn't know, Billy's English VA is none other than Clifford Chapin. I love this dude so much 😂😂😂
Anything else he's known for???
@@shanedoesyoutube8001 Bakugo in My Hero, he's also Yuri from Fairy Tail, and Connie from Attack on Titan, to say the least. I could go on and on about all he's played
@@zombiehead59also a few dragon ball characters
Title asks why, video says “we don’t know”. Wow so informative
I like the new voice being higher pitch as it sounds more "kid" in Billy Kid if you get what I'm trying to say..
both of them are an amazing voice actor, hope the pre release billy va got new roles with the future characters!
i like the new better, fits his bouncy animations best I think
New VA was definitely an upgrade over the last one. I feel his more high pitched and cartoonish sound of speaking fit Billy’s personality a lot better.
I think both VA's did an outstanding job :D
Its a pretty common thing for studios to change voice actor's from the preview to the actual release. Like Hazbin Hotel has noticeable differences in the voices of characters like Alastor
I thought I was trippin cause I thought his voice sounded odd to me once I started playing. I prefer the old one personally but the new voice isn’t terrible or anything. I just think the old one sounds more natural.
First one make him more friendly and funnier in my opinion. :D
I played JP voice. 😂
Ngl, i like the new billy. Hes got more spark. More energy
It took a few scenes for me to get used to the new one, but I think it ultimatily fits him more, both are good tho.
He feels like a more chill Deadpool without the sadistic Abd killing undertone
Honestly he sounds like Ryan Renolds deadpool
The old one sounds like he’s a chill but fun and lovable guy.
The new one sounds like a fun and lovable Billy.
in my personal opinion. both voice are cool and fit.
I thought I was going crazy thinking what happened to his voice pre release
I would go for his new voice, feels more energetic
Honestly, both are good.
And either works regardless.
Oh well. He does sound more like a robot now
I'll just say
Old voice makes him sound like Dante from Devil May Cry (in tone and acting)
And the new voice is like Deadpool (the same, tone ans acting)
Both VAs did a good job but his new VA definitely feels more like Billy Kid but that isn’t a bad thing, some VAs are better suited for some roles than others
very smart to put two different scenes to make us notice the difference
New voice sounds more happy and silly and i love that
I KNEW IT!! I knew something was different when I heared Billy talking
The change works way better for how goofy Billy is. Plus it was awesome hearing this voice after just finishing the Duke Of Death and His Maid as I was like “hey it’s him!” Lol
New VA sounds like Jesse Pinkman with a filter. He says "Starlight Knights" just like "Yeah Mista White"
Higher pitch sounds good to me since billy is having fun it fit well
i think the newer one feels just a bit more silly
Ok im glad it wasn't just me. When I saw that ad that was "over-animated", I thought, "hey, he sounds different" and after while I started to wonder if he was replaced.
Lycaon voice sounds like Zamasu voiced by James Masters
I grew accustomed to the old voice. The line "Dangerous for who!" stuck with me as a pretty cool and well done line.
His new voice sounds less monotone and sillier, it fits his personality more
I didn’t realize there was a difference 😭
A rare w from hoyo, the new voice is significantly better. more bubbly and youthful, fitting for "billy the kid"
They sound similar enough to keep the same vibe so I'm good with this
Old voice sounded like super senior gojo
The post had that small electric static in the voice which makes it better tbh
I really liked Billy’s old voice actor and was really sad when I found out he got changed. However, I can’t think of anyone better to recast him than Clifford Chapin (who I believe to be the new one) because his rendition of the character is just as good.
Glad the change the new voice is so much more fitting
i KNEW they changed voices, but i didn’t really mind because they both sound great (and also very similar, the current one of just higher + more personality)
"Bunked subtitles. It's starlight KNIGHTS with a K!"
I like his new voice because it just fix’s him
ohhhh im so glad i didnt get used to the original voice, ive played genshin since 1.2 and hsr since 1.0 IVE HAD ENOUGH VOICE CHANGES 😭
They both sound awesome and did a great job! If I had to choose which one I’d prefer as hard as that is, I think the higher pitch suits his energy and vibe better to me?
Again though, they both did great!
Honestly I like his new voice better because of how much more personality it gives his character, and it portrays his actual personality a lot better, imo anyways
Yeah I like the new voice better. fits well with his enthusiasm
They're both good but I'm baised to YOYOYO ladies! Good job as always 🙌❤
I freaking knew it! The difference was obvious, the moment I heard Billy’s new voice I was like wait this ain’t how it was before
I adore Billy’s new voice it fits his goofy style when he’s messing around
Billy is my favourite character from ZZZ and I really love his current VA ❤️ he did a really great job
I honestly didn’t even know there was a new VA until people pointed it out
The old voice is such funny as so fit with funny announcements while the new one is more serious that fits on - field situation lol
I didn’t notice tbh I guess cause the electronic filter to make him sound like a robot it’s a lot harder to tell the difference
I haven't heard the old voice too much, but the new one seems to have more energy and more of a "Ronald Reynalds" vibe that fits Billy really well.
I swear that one line when hovering over him on the Agent screen when he says “I got to guns so.. double the accuracy” sounds like both Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool and as something Deadpool would say. Caught me quite by surprise.
i literally played the game and heard that line and then watched deadpool THAT SAME NIGHT and thought the same thing.
I honestly couldn’t tell the difference until now
"I have two guns, so... Double the accuracy"
💀💀💀
Never played this game but I’ve seen the ads with this guy and I love him already lol
The first VA managed to capture and present the 'cyborg' characteristic, while our current Billy VA has the energy that devs want to portray.
New voice sounds like Cayde-6 which is pretty fun
