Behind the scenes

Many Pony voice actors have been involved in anime. As several anime was dubbed in Canada in the '80s and '90s, several actors who would appear in Generation 3 and Friendship is Magic appeared in anime works prior. Most notably of these would probably be Richard Ian Cox who appeared in several iconic anime series such as InuYasha and Dragon Ball and Brian Drummond, who appeared as Vegeta in the Ocean dub of Dragon Ball Z, though there are many more examples. For example, both Nicole Oliver and Kathleen Barr appeared in Adieu Galaxy Express 999, as Emeraldas and Maetel respectively.

In some cases, actors more known for anime roles have been cast to play characters, such as Brittany Lauda, who appeared in software games and was has been involved in tons of different anime properties.
