Just discovered that the same voice actress who played Washuu on the dubbed version of Tenchi Muyo also played one of the parts in Princess Mononoke.

I find it rather surprising

But not many people realize that the animation voice acting world is pretty small.

Yes, most people don't realize all the links between so many shows that there really are. Such as KT (Kate/Katie) Vogt doing not only Washuu, but Sonya (and thats not where I got my name) from Dragon Slayer and other random voices (mostly old ladies!) in other series. She also did live acting in a couple of short roles. I should try and get those on tape. They're not hard to find - "Conspiracy Theory" and "Doc Hollywood" were two of them.

Most everyone on the Tenchi cast has more than one name in the business. And a handful of them did the Fushigi Yuugi dub, The "Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals" dub (which royally sucked ass because the story sucked in Japanese as well as English) and most recently "The Emperor's New Groove."
Ryouko = Petrea Burchard/Celeste Burch
Tenchi = Kermit Miller/Matt K. Miller
Sasami/Tsunami/Kiyone - Sherry Lynn/Katie Ashley
...
BUT - the person I was most surprised about was Aeka's Seiyuu (Voice actor) Jennifer Darling/Kristen Tanner. She's got a huge credit list - including a lot of early live acting work. Anyway, most importantly, she was Irma from the TMNT cartoon series!

She was in "Conspiracy Theory"? Now I know what my next DVD is going to be!

True. Was a nice little easter egg on the DVD for me, because I like that particular actress. :)
