Brigitte Lecordier
Description
Brigitte Lecordier is a renowned French voice actress, widely recognized for her extensive work in dubbing anime and animated series for a French audience. Born in Paris, her path to voice acting was not direct; she initially pursued scientific studies before following her childhood ambition to become a clown, training at the École nationale du cirque founded by Annie Fratellini. This background as a clown, metteur en scène, and singer has informed her expressive and versatile vocal performances.
Lecordier is particularly celebrated for her long-standing association with the Dragon Ball franchise, where she has become the quintessential French voice for multiple characters. Her work in this universe includes portraying the child versions of Son Goku, his son Son Gohan, and his younger brother Son Goten. She also voices the characters of C-18, Future Trunks, and the Omni-King, Zen'ō, in various series and films, from Dragon Ball Z through Dragon Ball Super. Her ability to convincingly portray young boys and high-pitched characters is a hallmark of her career. This is further exemplified in her role as the kind and determined Prince Bojji in the acclaimed series Ranking of Kings. In the 2018 reboot of Captain Tsubasa, she voiced the twin characters Masao and Kazuo Tachibana. Her other notable anime roles include Oicho in Megalobox, Misha in Koguma no Misha, Toriyasu in Catnapped! The Movie, and Al in Lost Song.
Beyond anime, Lecordier's voice is deeply embedded in the childhood memories of many French viewers. She is the voice of beloved characters such as the titular Noddy (Oui-Oui), Bouli, and Bouba in Monarch: The Big Bear of Tallac. She also voiced Edward in Lady Lady!! and Nicolas in the classic French program Bonne nuit les petits. Her work extends to live-action dubbing, where she is, for example, the regular French voice for actress Jamie Brewer in the series American Horror Story. In addition to her acting, Lecordier works as a directrice artistique (dubbing director), with credits including the series Frieren: Beyond Journey's End and the anime adaptation of Future Boy Conan. Her creative output also includes writing and performing in Allô c'est Ninou, an animated series for the French channel Canal+. She maintains an active presence on digital platforms like YouTube, where she shares insights into her profession, and is a frequent and popular guest at pop culture conventions such as Japan Expo.
