Seiyū

"Seiyū" is the Japanese term for "voice actor". Generally, seiyū receive much more recognition for their roles in Japan, sometimes achieving national fame, than their English voice acting counterparts. Despite this, they are by all accounts shockingly underpaid, often having to take a second job in order to make ends meet.

In conventional usage, "seiyū" refers to the original Japanese voice actor for an anime role, while the provider of the English dub for the role is referred to as the "Voice actor".
