Voice
As you know, the popularity of any anime character usually depends greatly on the caliber of their voice. Lina Inverse's character is blessed with two excellent voice actresses, both in the english and japanese versions of Slayers: Megumi Hayashibara and Lisa Ortiz. (Aren't they great? ^^ I perfer Megumi H., though.) In this section, you can learn about the talented voice actresses who bring Lina to life!
Megumi Hayashibara - Probably the most well-known voice actress among fervent anime fans (and with good reason!), Megumi Hayashibara provides the spunky, youthful voice of Lina Inverse in the japanese version of Slayers.
