Richard Ian Cox

So, I am not sure if this belongs here or in the Off topic section, but since he is an Anime Voice actor i hope this doesnt get locked until i find my answer.

I heard that the anime Voice Actor, Richard Ian Cox, is NO LONGER with Viz Media. The anime giant responciable for such shows as InuYasha, Naruto, Ranma 1/2, and many more. He is one of my favorite Voice Actors, and I am puzzled as to why he left Viz after so many years with them. Does anyone out there know the truth? Please someone has to.

Judging from his latest jobs it looks like he's with Sunrise now. I don't know if that is the same as Viz as I really don't care about voice acting or the developers one way or another.

i saw that too! but then i thought, cant a voice actor just go to whatever studio they want? sort of like a regular actor? i hope he is still with viz

Actually, it was Ocean whom he worked for. He wasn't exclusive to them, but he did many roles for them.

[Terejima Ryoko]

oh, so you mean he doesnt work for ocean anymore?

[milliennium_fox]

I do not know. He was in //Roots, but he was not in Death Note (which was handled by Ocean). That doesn't prove that he no longer works for Ocean though, but it is odd.

[Terejima Ryoko]

That is odd. Well i am sure he gets to pick and chose his projects. Maybe that is why he wasnt in it.

He is doing the English voice of Alleluljah Haptism for Gundam 00...
