Vic Mignogna as Greece in Hetalia, oh man.

It seems that ANN has revealed a partial cast list for Hetalia. The cast is your usual Funimation cast list of big name, high profile folks, you know, the sorta thing that the LA based dubs get pissed on for doing, yet Funimation is just as bad, if not worse about this. The thing that struck me about this was the fact that massive attention whore Vic Mignogna is going to play Greece and for thoose who don't know who Vic is, I'll let this snippet from the ANN forums be the indication:

"Knowing Vic, he'll try and play down the yaoi aspect or make some outlandish BS claim that he talked to the creator and got her to admit that "It's not YAOI, I got the creator to confirm it to me." He's only taking the role only because it's keeps his name in the limelight."

This is all you ever need to know about Vic. In addition to being an attention whore, he also lies his ass off. The above quote is in relation to him TOTALLY meeting clamp and them saying that Fai is not gayness incarnate. He also says to be straight edge, yet he gets shit faced at bars whilst at cons. Oh well, the dub will have it's usual following of rabid Funimation fans hailing the dub as the second coming, all the while the dub will realistically be an overrated mess, with hit or miss performances, and hammy jokes, oh shit, just like every other Funimation dub!
