No, he's not. He's got a softish voice.
But but. I spent several years reading fanfiction before I got ahold of the anime. I've only seen up to 16 episodes.
And in those 16 episodes he's said more than those years of fanfiction gave him alltogether.
Is it just me or do people exaggerate how little Trowa says? He's not wordy but he's not particularly quiet. He says what he wants to say plenty. Just because he's not Duo (who's portrayed as far more happy and talkative than he is in the anime, btw) doesn't mean he's quiet.
Just saying.
All though he is still the most mysterious of all the pilots, simply because the creators are keeping mum about his past, he certainly isn't wordless.
Anyone want to smack me and tell me to shut the fruck up?

I think he's kind of like Heero. Doesn't say much normally, but doesn't shut up if he has something to say. I never understand the 'silent' label he gets. He's quiet, but not silent.

Seriously. :c poor boys get everything exaggerated.
Wufei said 'woman' to refer to Noin once, and that was before he knew her name. Poor guy!

I think its trowa's fade into the background personality that make people overlook him it is why he is such a successful spy. then when he does speak it is usually something pretty profound and well thought out so people naturally sit up and take notice. And of course he IS softsopken, kirby morrow is great just compare trowa to prince Van from escaflowne, he spends most of the series shouting about one thing or another...same voice very different characters.
Again i enjoy playing with streiotypes. my fantacy AU 'cursed' is one of my most popular stories, I think its a very different take on 'voiceless Trowa' and 'heartless Heero' and how they get free of their particular enchantment. Sure its not cannon...but it is fun.

While he might not be LOUD, he does talk a lot. He has some of my favorite quotes.
I've always thought of Trowa as reading body language more than anything else. When I play Trowa, he does talk, yes, but when he's with his lover, (usually Quatre) the two hardly need words at all. They can sit in a companionable silence and read or whatever, then look up and know what the other is thinking. Even if it is something as simple as a drink request.
Hell, even Heero isn't as quiet as everyone makes them out to be. The two just don't talk as much as Duo, or Quatre, or Relena.

That's because those three talk too much.

Yah, the majority of fanfiction writers do play up Trowa being both "silent" and an emotional void.
