How about this: let's not compare the Japanese voices with their English counterparts, and leave it at that ;D
I agree, but unfortunately, we know that's not gonna happen...
English voice actors are better than the Japanese ones neways
I agree. Most of the Japanese voices sound annoying in my opinion. I mean... have you heard Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Pete?
The reason we think tht Jap disney voices sound weird is bcuz they originated in AMERICA. we got use 2 the english VAs, and so jap VAs sound weird.

No offense, but I loled almost to death when I heard Mickey, in japanese. It was literally like a japanese guy used helium, and would try to see what would happen.Same thing can be said to those who hate the English voices
But seriously Goofy does sounds like a retard in japanese.

Has anyone asked any VA's about anything? I know Jesse McCartney, and Willa Holland have a twitter, while Corey Burton has a official site.
Once the game has been revealed, show via trailer, gameplay, scenes, voice actor crediting on SE site. You'd think that they'd be able to talk about it now anywayz.They're probably not allowed to talk about it, but give it a try...

< Does not have twitter
Willa Twitter: Willa Holland (officialwillajc) on Twitter
Jesse Twitter: Jesse McCartney (JesseMcCartney) on Twitter
Nah, they usually VA by themselves at different times. For instance, Quinton Flynn has never met Jesse McCartney, even though they are like costars.
To be honest, i heard both shy and flat f you could believe that. but i do not hear any "strong" in willa holland's VA. i will admit the third linein the trailer was good, but simply because there was not much emotion to go on. and i never heard of Baten Kaitos or Chaos Wars. Also megumi wasn't that cute, she was strong in most of the game. WIlla holland has a lower tone of voice but that doesnt mean she has a strong voice.You remember that in the BBS Ultimania that Nomura commented that he thought the english voice acting was good right? As pointed out via Derek Stephen Prince (Quinton Flynn was predetermined for Axel) that Kingdom Hearts goes auditioning style. Which means that some person including Nomura would be there to judge a voice to fit the right characters. So if Aqua's grunts sounded great you'd assume she'd be great? That's a real double standard considering we've only had about 5 minutes worth of Aqua scenes compared to the entire game length that is 45+ hours.
Wat? Have you SEEN/HEARD of the movie "The Expendables"(Bruce Willis, Jet Li, Terry Crews, Stallone Schwarzenegger, Statham)? (A.K.A. THEE BADASS MOVIE OF THE SUMMER!!!!???)
BOT: Star studded cast has always been a grand line of SE. Just look at how well they had done the Final Fantasy series. Of course there is going to be a difference between Megumi, and Willa. Different perspectives of characters go a long way, as with SE/Willa might've wanted to mold Aqua to her more strong feminine lead rather than that cutesty voice Megumi had Willa could be presenting the stronger side of Aqua. There are plenty more scenes in this game that are emotional that asking for a slipper, and that god awful fruit speech.
Doesn't her being "shy" point out that Willa isn't being a flat, deadpan, emotionless VA? Literally if you want emotionless, deadpan, and flat go watch/listen to Mena Suvari as Aerith. There are 2 side to every personality Megumi the cute Aqua, and Willa the strong badassery Aqua pulls off in this 45+ hour game.
Just look at the Final Fantasy XIII first english trailer: Everyone though it was dirt in voices, bu i turned out to be an earlier recording. Not o mention as I said before o he Jesse McCartney scenario. When people heard Roxas in english at first they cried, died, and moped. Nowadays it's a blood oath practically that must play him.
EDIT: Not all JRPG have good dubs. just look a Baten Kaitos, and.....ugh Chaos Wars. (I'd even throw a Tales of game in there, but Vesperia says no.)
that's also a possibility.Here's another possibility: their sound mix for the trailer was awful and not at all representative of the final game. Seriously, whoever decided to halve the volume of the audio in the gameplay clips needs to be smacked. And there's no way to know who's speaking loudly enough when we don't have sound effects to compare their voices to. =/
The way they do voice acting dubs for Japanese games is very strange...
How do they do it ?
