Talk:Eriko Ibe

Major breakthrough/realization:

I just realized that there is one voice in Mario Party 1 that's completely uncredited: the announcer. Whereas Martinet and Kozuki are credited for their respective character's "Oh no" voice sample and Toad/Kinopio (Maruno) has no new voice samples in that game (or Mario Party 2, where Ibe is also credited with the same two actors mentioned above), wouldn't that make Eriko Ibe the voice of the announcer (and ONLY the announcer) in both those games, given that Yoshi used SMW sound effects (made by Koji Kondo), Bowser/Koopa uses samples from Super Mario 64, and Baby Bowser and Koopa Kid use the same voice samples as Bowser/Koopa only sped up? - Kyubihanyou, September 3, 2011

Tumble
Given that Ibe is in the Special Thanks section of Mario Party 3 is it possible she's Tumble, or should Taylor only be considered for being credited for voices? By the same token, should Martinet be considered for Millenium Star instead of someone else more remote?

The announcer for Mario Party 4 (and 5) is also an issue... 67.83.150.192 11:12, 2 December 2013 (EST)
 * If we don't know, then don't assume. I know this uncredited voices is a headache, but please don't assume until we got something definite. 03:00, 3 December 2013 (EST)

nationality
What genius thought that eriko Ibe is Japanese? I have to know because her name is not Japanese, her accent is not Japanese, and she's never been to Japan. Where did this Japanese thing come from anyway, what Nintendo is Japanese so therefore anybody with a vaguely foreign nonEuropean name must be from Japan? Americans, they are so ignorant about the rest of the world, especially Africa. 199.101.61.254 16:14, November 18, 2019 (EST) I removed her nationality because there is no source that claims she is from Japan or even Asia for tha tmatter so don't add it again unles syou have a source. Long-held belief doesn't mean true, especially with Eriko Ibe's non-Japanese name. 199.101.61.254 16:32, November 18, 2019 (EST)
 * people can be nationalities without a fitting name or accent. dual citizenship is a thing that exists. 16:46, November 18, 2019 (EST)
