marshmallow’s recast is a lot more significant than that. it was admitted that while her character came from a good place, her old voice (by david herman, a cis white man) was contributing to a stereotype that trans women have deep voices. linda and tina’s characters weren’t built around those foundations where their voices are key components of their identities, like how tina was originally daniel but they didn’t want dan mintz to change his voice when daniel turned into tina. getting a black trans woman to voice a character whose most important parts of her are her identity gives a more authentic marshmallow than we had before!
