American voice actress and singer who voiced Mai across the original Dragon Ball series and Dragon Ball GT during Funimation's early 2000s dub work.
Julie Franklin is an American voice actress and singer who provided the English voice for Mai across the original Dragon Ball series and Dragon Ball GT. Her portrayal of the cunning and resourceful character became iconic in Funimation's early 2000s localization, though the role was later recast to Colleen Clinkenbeard for subsequent productions.
Franklin's work with Funimation established her presence in anime dubbing during a formative period for English Dragon Ball localization. As of late 2016, she shifted her focus to voiceover services, providing narration and character voices for Raven Audio Books based in Arizona.
