The best anime dubbing you've heard

Listen...I know that anime dubs aren't exactly the most popular thing with anime fans, and I can understand why. We went through many years of dubs that were extremely low quality.  Unfortunately, there are still sub-par dubs being pumped out today.  The good news is, they are few and far between!  I'm not too sure how many anime fans realize that the level of voice talent for dubs has really gone up in recent years.

I also think it's hard for a lot of people to appreciate just how hard it is to act for an animated program.  Sometimes you get to see a few animatics put together, which allows you to get some sort of feeling for the scene you're portraying.  Other times, an actor gets nothing more than a suggestion of emotion and a single still image to look at.  Trying to pull out the right intensity and approach with that kind of direction is damn tough!

If you're looking for some fantastic anime dubbing, I'd highly suggest that you check out Spice and Wolf.  The two main characters are absolutely fantastic, and they do an amazing job at nailing the right emotions and timing.  They really manage to bring the characters to life, and even moreso, they add the right amount of romantic style that the story is trying to bring to its audience.

Hopefully you've experienced some wonderful anime dubs as well.  What stand-out performances do you remember?  Was it an entire cast of an anime, or one character in particular?  Perhaps you like one real-life voice actor in particular, as he/she manages to really sell every role they take on.  Let's give these hard-working people the credit they deserve!
