REAL bad voice acting

[CommisarCake]

Nicole?Originally it was Nicholas.

[CaptainTooner]

Wow, the VAs sound so bored.

[SMGJohn]

You usually play these games in original language if you like it very much. America can suck it they destroy Japanese games by giving them shitty Dubs

[jsh020]

@SMGJohn dont compare all dubs with this, this was made last minute in a day with people that never did acting before because they were the director's family.

real dubs are like darker than black's, cowboy bebops, borderline any dub past 2007.(keyword borderline)

[SMGJohn]

@jsh020 Original language is the way to go. English in itself sounds weird in cartoons etc.

[KiwifruitPixie]

The worst part is...none of the voices fit any of the characters, except Nicole's. Somewhat. At least Nicole's voice actor was trying to go for "creepily calm evil guy".

[blarghblargh5]

ive heard better voice acting from microsoft sam xD

[Charla029]

what the fuck? you've got to be kidding me. they sound awful! I'm embarassed for them!

[KillerBaka9]

JUMP!!!

Actually, Nicole's the only one who's voice suits his character's look and the events that are happening...

[angryeyedude1]

Why the hell did they put Yuri(Uru), Nicholai,and Karen in this game? Trust me their voice acting in Shadow Heart Covenant is much better than this. In Sh:C Yuri was a hilariously sarcastic protagonists. His best line: Bite me. That is definitely what he would say if he see this video. Probably would also fuse into Amon, find and kill the director of this game.

[Vercalos]

I've heard better from amateurs.  Bad amateurs.

[winneryeahmate]

Now this is so gay.

[Majorasword64]

an dubs aren't as bad at this! This isn't a fandub right?

[MetalHead510]

It's bad and all but the dialogue is still better than BioWare can shit out.

[RavingKunaiX]

3:11

YEEYUH

[Detallado]

>weaboo shit

fuck off

[TheBansheeBomb]

....What fucking game is this?

[gastogether4ever]

Yup. This is terrible. I am not a voice actor by any means but I could do way better than that.

[JoeMudd123]

They sound like they're recording in someone's bedroom, trying not to wake up mum in the next room.

[namawapaya]

the dudes is gay, the bitches is tripping

[Funcakezs]

LMFAO Shizuku's voice doesn't match :)) Karen has no feelings at all :P

[pureblackeagle]

Nicole was okay.... except for the four second gaps in words

[Bludhoundz8]

Is this even real?...

[pretentiousguy27]

In all seriousness, is the actual gameplay any good?

[shincin]

this is fake......right?.....RIGHT???!­!!!!

[darklink223456]

Nicole is stoned?

[Finozzi96]

WTF

[Soap1061]

"Wow, I really can't move my body." Uru,that was amazing, just AMAZING

[EarthGirl1919]

It's like somebody got a drunk, a gay, an emo, and a sadistic freak together to make a voice dub.

[DoomWolveProductions]

Uru= gay guy

Karen= goth chick

nicole= some pedo

Shizuku= slut

Thats what I think the voice actors sound like :P imo

[Shadowbangg]

Please tell me this is fake dub, otherwise i'm losing lots of respect for dub. >.>

[MatvYAguz]

@Shadowbangg It's not, it's official. I couldn't believe it too.

[crashnburner187]

karen sounds like a female tommy wiseau.

[animebryan]

Please tell me this is a fandub & not "professional" voice actors hired by an actual game company!

[TwilightSync]

@animebryan It isn't thankfully. Actually, the guy who developed this or whatever had his family dub this instead of shelling out the money for professionals. ._. If you don't believe me then Google it.

[deathballad]

SHIZUKU = KE$HA LOL

[ThedarkestTroll]

I showed this video to my sister and she made it until 0:51 when she threw down the headphones and backed away. I tried to tell her that it wasn't what it sounded like but I don't think she entirely believes me.

[tyhonda47]

I usually don't bash on voice acting in video games, but this was by far the worst I've heard in a long time. Not to mention that Uru sounds a little bored and.....homosexual.

[CorvoSol]

Uru . . . . . . . Karen.

[oToxicPandao]

Oh God... why..

[skalliedA]

please tell me this is not a real game. oh good lord, what the f.....

[moralreef]

these guys are clearly goofing around

[captainawesome405]

uru sounds like a gay guy

[RyuNoZero]

and I can pay Money for THIS ?!

[philiplonidier]

...no.  Really? REALLY?!

[satanhatesyu]

The director just hired his family to do the VA work. Seriously. Look it up.

[ChaosxPaladin]

Reminds me of Tales of Eternia, but then again even Eternia was better than this...

[TehAnimatid1]

....This just.... wow....

[videogamenostalgia]

'I really can't move my body. So dudes, do you wanna go get a frozen yoghurt or something?'

[pollotierrez]

this is a horrible dub, and the character voices doesnt have any feelings

[LyleVertigo]

They are just reading off a sheet, comon! You know what they got paid to do this?

$20 Subway gift card.

[TheCovahHavoc]

so this is how twilight sounds...

[Zelgie]

Did they hire a group of people that is mentally retarded so they can save on the cost of VA?

[naierer]

Just relax and let it go, I'll be done in a sec.......

[pureblackeagle]

god... and people complain about the new voice actors in silent hill hd collection....

[Anon5241]

Uru and Nicole sound like gay guys, Karen sounds like deadpan girl, Shizuku sounds like a valley girl (or having way too much fun with her role). The other two are alright, but I checked around and some guy earlier in the pronounced "summon" wrong.

[TheNarcissusX]

Nu uh. No way. If this is actually real, then I've just lost an once of faith in humanity. Who in the world could ever take this seriously?

[Anon5241]

@TheNarcissusX it's real. Supposedly their contract with Sony said they HAD to have voice acting, so there was like no enthusiasm, and they decided to screw it up just to sorta give Sony the finger.

[outtagoodnamesdangit]

Oddly enough, the part I laughed the hardest at was the "Yeeaauh!" from the kid with glasses just after 3:11.

[Sport921]

"Wow. I really can't feel my body"

[HaiDoggie]

Absolutely no enthusiasm. And poor acting.

[SerenitytheDragonair]

I was laughing so hard that I was trying to put of chapstick on and it got on my teeth! :P

[Pharoahfreak]

Tengaio = Virginity

[Jarrecko]

wait..this isn't real. No way. This sounds like a fandub.

[Lolikooly]

oddly enough, i actually want this gamex)

[JimmelHappyFunTime]

Jump!!

[Pigziggy]

perfume de zigitaris

[Allthingzvamp]

Karen is so nice.

[Coolysouthkid]

You know what this game needs? A large does of Vic Mignogna!

[kainsclouds]

Wow... I really can't unhear this.

No really it's great. I just can't close my ears at all.

[CookieMonstahGirl]

"Just lie down and enjoy the show..." (;

[bruotaku]

2:24 "Whaaat?! I didn't see that coming at all!"

I didn't see this horrible voice acting coming at all!

[bruotaku]

And that is unfortunately a real game...

[BazzBrother]

Uru is not impressed

[cloudvol7]

It sound's like Richard simmon's,4 bumb's off the street,and a guy named Nicole.Lol!

[SlashAddict957]

That. was. PAINFUL!! sounded like they had like no budget and just grabbed a handfull of 16-20 year old losers off the street. Don't believe me? Listen again! :3

Uru: sounds like som gay emo (not that I have anything against gays)

Karen: Stoned chick who learned english as a second language

Nicole: Preppy homosexual boy... seeing as how there's so many innuendos

Shizuku: Drunk blonde party girl

Hayatemaru: White gangster wannabe

Hyoma: Way too flamboyent with the "Jump" and poor adjetives

[Inita007]

I hope this isn't real e.e Just like what yoshpit222 says...

Uru sounds like a stereotypical gay guy... Karen sounds as if she can't read and is pronouncing every word as if she's /just/ learning English right then and there...

[yoshpit222]

I'm hoping this isn't real...

[momygirl99]

Uru's voice actor sounds bored. "Wow. I really can't move my body. -.-"

[EpicNerdsLol]

Is this...a real game with these voices being for real...? This is horrible lmao.

[GamerSam13]

Did the casting director just kidknap the first 4 people he saw?

[squirtlegirl426]

.......Uru(Yuri) had a great voice actor in Shadow Hearts Covenant....why couldn't they get him....?

[Dandadudemedia]

Marijuana is the HELL of a drug 

[MrBigGreenskin]

2:40 - 2:44

I see I am not the only one.

[Kilzyyyyy]

uru sounds gay

[amillionminutes]

1:04 That's how I feel about the whole voice cast.

[KailJudgementNeo]

The green haired girl sounds like jessie slaughter.

[LeuJinx]

Goddamn nepotism...

[luminousbulb]

This must be the most boring video game ever...

[faggotgumdrops]

WHY CAN'T I STOP LAUGHING?!

[PeterParkerisded]

Eating rotten food off the ground....thats what watching this video feels like.

[vincentecrow09]

It can't be worse than DBGT Final Bout...

[TheEye114]

I have cancer now.

[RE4gamerrrrrr]

@TheEye114 Ear drum cancer.

[Luv2Blovd13]

is Hyoma a girl or a boy? o-o

[June28July]

This is so bad it's good! I mean funny good!

[June28July]

Uru sounds FABULOUS!!!

[0020q]

He REALLY whants that tengaio of his.

[DaVince21]

They HAVE to have acted this badly on purpose.

[12ealDeal]

Nicole isn't THAT bad. But Uru sounds like he's from San Fran, bats for the other team, and his only previous acting experience came from a 1997 porno film.

[Techfurre]

Sounds fan-made, but bad NTL haha



[gekomees]

Is this real? OMG.

[omuyasha]

OMG!!! "THE'' Worst voice acting I "EVER!"heard!! wow, this is just sad.

[TsunamiTD]

Uru's ancestors carried bundles of sticks around

[018rebekka]

uru=lumpy space princess

[paranoidude]

I love the tense music, but their lax'd voices.

[ChrisXDumbass]

Despite the voice acting, I loved this game...

[Vangaurdius]

Is it just me or does this sound like some sort of porno?

[YorkJonhson]

@Vangaurdius Just close your eyes.. lol

[Cthulufhrockin]

@Vangaurdius it sounds like rape :(

[MENFARTSSS]

@Vangaurdius Holy crap it does! XD

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

I didn't say it was just a name I said it was more than a name, and one aspect of the word isn't enough to influence the name change.

I'm ending this, I'm sick of this bullshit argument.

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

Based on the Japanese site 2ch.

The genre Yuri is a Japanese term, it just happens to be used by some americans familiar with anime/manga/and Literature. But it isn't the absolute definition, remember Yuri was first a name in several regions.

You claim that the reason his name wasn't changed to Yuri again because its an american term for lesbian pornography, when in fact its only are recent thing that was coined in the late 70s in Japan.



[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

Just not referred to as such in America.

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz By the way, Yuri's name is Russian.

Yuri is in fact a very common name in several regions.

The Russian equivalent to George, most people in America don't refer to Yuri as a type of pornography, in fact some would probably think it's someones name, someone whose of Russian decent.

They changed it to Uru because that's Yuri's real name

His actual name is Urmnaf Bort Hyuga, "Uru" for short.

They changed it to Yuri because Urmnaf sounds weird.

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

Yeah it is, Yuri is a Japanese loanword referring to female homosexual content in fiction, especially anime and manga.

Yuri in Japan means Lily, but also refers to GL (Girls Love), in America Lesbian porn means Lesbian pornin porn categories, in /u/ there's Yuri which is Lesbian Hentai, hentai is cartoon/animated/2D pornagraphy

[Harkz0r]

Wow, what an insult this is to Shadow Hearts. If I was Sacnoth, I'd be out for blood!

But this makes me feel at least 10 times as confident in my own meagre voiceover skills. Seriously, I didn't even realise any human alive without a major mental handicap could sound like Karen here.

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

No, it's Japanese animated porn.

[CashemereLoco]

@darkiscoolz

What? No its not.

[nyheen]

dude. is this really fan dub?. sound like they use the cheapest mic they can find. i need to play this for my self to know the truth. this got to be a lie!. lmao. and ftw. 3:01 JUMP!!

[Slipstream1984]

Yuri Hyuga is in this game!? What the? I need to research this now, despite the bad voice acting.

[IgnitionXXan]

@Slipstream1984 That's what I thought to do, but the voices just makes me not want it. Unless you turned off the volume and did your own voices.

[IRISLia123]

Are you sure this isn't a fandub? 0.0

=_=

I'm a disappoint. I always have been supporting English VAs but this is just ridiculous.

[CashemereLoco]

@IRISLia123

Actually, they aren't professional VAs at all.

They're actually the relatives of the owner of the company that brought the game overseas.

The owner decided to save a buck and hire his relatives to do it.

Seriously.

[IgnitionXXan]

It's supposed to be Yuri not Uru

Why in all the hells did they change his name?

[nejiharuno]

@IgnitionXXan ... The Japanese version back in Shadow Hearts have his name as "Uru"... so yeah...

[SHlNOBl3]

little girl? she fuckin sounds 20

"be a good boy...and suck on my penis, uru!"

[InfurnusChaotix]

Jesus Christ...And I thought the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Anime voice acting was atrocious..JUST WOW.

[GemoDawn]

Okay, suddenly I feel extremely confident in my own VA skills after watching this horribleness :D

[vikingdrizzit]

:46 to :57 ...0_0

[Chibi269]

Listen to yourself she has nothing to do with this.

[EdsEnemy]

OHAI NEEKOLE

OHAI NEWSPAPER

OHAI TENGAIO

[Paradoxical45]

It's like they gave the actors their lines, but didn't bother to explain what was actually happening in the scene. Seriously, they all sound like they don't even know what emotion they're supposed to be expressing.

[ZellBolado]

Gotta love how Yuri became Uru and Nikolai became Nicole.

[BlazePyron]

Are you freaking out Uru? Does it SOUND like he's freaking out?

[Ganonmustdie2]

Seriously, there are way too many innuendos with Tengaio, the way they're all talking, and "What are YOU doing? That's just wrong, dude."

[rakuen3300]

Why do Uru, Karen and Nicole look almost identical to Yuri, Karen and Nicolai form Shadow Hearts 2?

[ZellBolado]

@rakuen3300 They ARE Yuri, Karen and Nicolai. But the translators are just as good as the voice actors.

[ThePureKenshin]

Is that dude gay

[MightyKombat]

Who voiced Karen?

My dad could put more emotion into a girl voice.

[akaciparaci]

this is why there's such a salvation as undub

[FiragunRaive]

I have this game, these VOs are real. It's hilarious.

[TheNewagecaveman]

This reminded me if my early years in high school English, where everyone read passages from a book out loud.

Ahh, the memories.

[fadedsouljoker]

WTF SHADOW HEARTS 2 CHARA???

[TheDiscoShrew]

OH GOD, IT BURNS! UUUUGH!

[MagicEmperor]

Jesus, this acting makes Resident Evil 1's original voice actors sound like Academy Award-winners. lol

[Kvnhidalgo]

what game is this

[LucyPearl81]

This is the actual cutscene voices?

[jotunmarty]

i think he does wanted the other guys twisted love

[morinavampile]

Can't....stand.....the......ho­rible....voice....acting!!!!!! *falls to the ground, with ears bleeding, foaming at the mouth*

[HollahDollah]

no this is all wrong

they dont sound like little girls and boys

[WMan37]

I wanna hear Uru say "LIKE, OHMAIGAWD"

[LoneIiest]

Hey, at least the audio quality is good enough to sound clear and distinguishable.

[GordonChiefSack]

Uru sounds like a homo. and Karen sounds like she is half asleep.... Nicole was the best. But he sucked too.

[Kyuubi424]

The voices are indeed terrible, but what the fuck is up with the dialogue?

"I'll kill her first."

"Whaat!? I didn't see that coming at all!"

I'm thinking these voice actors looked at the script and said 'fuck it'.

[RedIsTheCat]

Rofl xD

[emoguys11]

If you would compare Sasuke to Karen, Sasuke would have the biggest personality in the world.

[VembersWind]

Nicole sounds kinda like ProtonJon O_O

[AutoOntology]

Karen's voice actor is stoned beyond all belief.

[NotThatClueless]

The first time Uru talked I nearly died.

[mrfaceless]

Shizuku=Ke$ha

[AkimboNinjaPWN]

Uru: The gay friend

Karen: Massively stoned.

Shizuku: Drunk off her ass.

Nicole: Pedophile

[vireneey]

it's like the seiyuu didn't any have expression(s) in their words! :/

[ardruma]

Karen is hopped up on xanax.

[fatfail666]

0:07 His eyes.....they are lopsided. Herp derp.

[angerayne]

omg. what did they do to yuri & karen? T_T

[ToasterknowsALL]

@sunikusudude Yuri's (or as you call him, Uru) is the best voice.

How can you say it's bad???

[ToasterknowsALL]

OHMIGOD SHADOW HEARTS

:D

I LOVE YOU FOREVER

WHAT IS THIS WONDERFUL 2-D GAME?

[adgato75]

@ToasterknowsALL chaos wars. and this is the real voice acting, not a parody. its terrible.

[0BucketMask0]

is this...really the actual voice acting? This isn't some group of fans or anything?

If not, then, wow. I hope they didn't pay these people much.
