FFXIII English-language trailer
…Oh. I SEE WHUT U DID THAR with the accents. But tbh most of the voice acting just made me laugh. Especially since everyone sounded husky as fuck. Sazh I understand since JP-language Sazh had a husky voice too, to give the impression of old age through voice. But everyone? Come on. This is like those old dubbed anime where everyone and their mothers sounded like they’d been sipping too much spicy juice. I’m sorry but every time I listen to a dub with an overabundance of hoarseness, I just think they don’t know what they’re doing.
VAs should be able to act without feeling like they have to cover up their voices through a filter of imposed hoarseness. Just sayin’
Like the song, don’t like how it was implemented. Then again, I wasn’t feeling Kimi Ga Iruka on the JP version of this trailer either, so I guess it balances out.
ETA: …Speaking of FF13, it took me 56789 tries to beat Odin and after hitting on a method that worked, I’ve been calling Hope “Sharkbait.” :DDD And then I started using it as a term for characters whose only function was to stay alive while the rest of the party wailed on the enemy. |D There’s even an optima for that very purpose. pfff

By Jac the Tripper, January 14, 2010 @ 11:16 am
Yes, and yes! :DDDDD Do you have a preference for the day?
By sarah, January 14, 2010 @ 11:09 pm
not sure yet. my cousin is visiting for a week, so i’ll figure it out a bit later. how about you, do you have a day in mind?
By Jac the Tripper, January 15, 2010 @ 4:08 am
Not really a preference, but how does the 22nd sound? >3>
By sarah, January 16, 2010 @ 2:42 am
i’m leaving on the 22nd :P
my cousin left early, so how about tuesday or wednesday? around what time though? is 1 or 2 pm good?
also, this is kinda selfish, but do you mind if i schedule an appointment at school after? I’d hate to use you like some kind of alarm safety net, but I was late for an appointment last time by 10 min and couldn’t get in.
By Jac the Tripper, January 16, 2010 @ 2:45 am
:(( A preemptive I’ll miss you!
That’s like, the 19/20th, right? I’m good with either. :DD
And of course I don’t mind! It’s your time, after all. :O What time’s your appointment?
By sarah, January 16, 2010 @ 4:34 am
it’s too late to call now, I’ll call on monday and see if they have any spots left.
where we going? you said kinokuniya last time? I’ll tag along but I’ll think I’ll buy my magazines in Japan, lol. I should save on the extra $ they tack on for imports, even if the dollar is weak, right?
By Jac the Tripper, January 16, 2010 @ 5:08 am
I knew I’d forgotten something; I forgot about the place! Let’s forget Kino, haha. |D Hmmm…what kinda food do you want to eat?
By sarah, January 19, 2010 @ 7:38 am
i dunno why, but i’m craving food from that chinatown arcade area we went to before! I don’t even remember what I ate, but I remember the atmosphere or something. I can’t think of much to do around there though, so if you have anything else in mind, tell me!
wanna meet on wednesday? I haven’t made my appointment yet, and it might be too late for one, so time might still be 2-ish. *procrastinates even more*
By Jac the Tripper, January 19, 2010 @ 9:37 am
Let’s go there. :3 Wednesday is good!
Do you mean 2-ish is when you have to leave? Should we meet ~11:30-12:00?
By sarah, January 20, 2010 @ 2:06 am
nah, we can meet at 2, since i’m a late riser, lol. Screw the appointment thing, i’m too embarrassed for being late last time! i’ll do that when i come back.
By Jac the Tripper, January 20, 2010 @ 5:24 am
:O As long as it gets done?
Meet under the tunnel thingy?
By sarah, January 20, 2010 @ 9:03 am
the tunnel of the arcade? across elizabeth center?
i’ll call you if I get lost!
By Jac the Tripper, January 20, 2010 @ 11:23 am
Yep yep that thing.
