@G1Ravage:
Don't we also get a Vegapunk voice line in a Caesar flashback sometime soon? That'll present the same issue…having to cast a character we really haven't seen or know anything about yet.
Yes, in episode 610 I believe. Even if he'll likely get recast I'm curious as to what he'll sound like, same with kaido. And actually there's a 3rd example, Kanjuro gets a brief line in episode 629, although he'll properly appear relatively soon so its more likely it'll stick.

@Zephray:
Diamanté sounds a little different in that clip. But I love both him and Trebole’s actors so far.
I'm pretty sure that's just because he yelled all his lines in episode of sabo lol

Looking at the kaido line from 630, I don't think it's the same guy. Although yeah like Elektrik said they have the advantage of being ahead, unless oda told them toei probably had no idea that was supposed to be kaido so they didnt put much thought into casting. With the dub there are people who are caught up and know who its supposed to be, so they couldve went ahead and put a lot of thought into someone they plan to stick. On the other hand though, it is still only one line. If it was a different dude nobody would really notice or care, so I could see it going either way
