And that’s what I don’t understand about anime studios that do this kind of practice because it actually doing a disservice to the character imo. I mean, imagine if you apply that to The Lion King. What would you feel if Disney forced the VA of the cub-Simba to voice the adult-Simba? The VA might be delighted because he/she would get more job & cash and some of the audience probably wouldn't mind either, but that’s still not the best thing to do (and thank god Disney didn’t do it).
