The results are nothing short of predictable for a person living in Japan. Of course a never-ending show like Doraemon or classic anime like Dragon Ball are the bread and butter of anime culture, so of course they will make it on this list. Just like how Bugs Bunny or Homer Simpson’s voice actor would make it on our list if it was held here. This also shows us that this was more of a poll for the everyday anime viewer, rather than the otaku crowd.1. Nobuyo Ōyama / 大山 のぶ代 (Doraemon/Doraemon)
2. Akira Kamiya / 神谷 明 (Kinnikuman/Kinnikuman, Hokuto no Ken/Kenshiro)
