That is why veteran voice actors usually cast for supporting roles, rather than the main ones. Also, anime voice acting is rather poor source of income, actually. Live action dubbing and video games vocie acting usually brings more money to voice actors. So usually they have a cast, full of big-name veteran voice actors.

This is a shame for the international audience and a very weird situation.Usually, it’s the reverse for live action actors/actresses.
