BlazBlue US Console Version Footage!

[nibelungvalesty]

yeah i like ragna's voice in english too.

[synix09]

Uh, Nu is so dumb.

[direwolfy]

Agreed.

There's a difference between understanding which is the better voice and which voice is retarded.What has that got to do with otaku-ness,shadow kid.

Jin's voice sounds so deep,which is unlike his actual scheming and sinister character.The VA in Jap however can bring out the true feelings of Jin.

[plb063]

I think the Jin voice actor did extremely well, especially Jin vs Ragna.

Gave me chills the first time I heard him say "brother" at the start of that matchup, and after winning a round when he goes "This is no fun at all!" really brings out his decline into insanity in my opinion.

Overall I think they did an incredible job with the English voice actors in this game, and I almost always hate EN voice actors of JP games/shows/etc haha.

[BanzaiBonez]

My personal opinion on the matter is that the English VA's did a spectacular job. At first I didn't like Noel's English voice, but it did end up growing on me and I appreciate the whole VA crew, both the original Japanese and the English VA's I believe both casts did a phenomenal job.

As for the Jin voice I did like it for if you know the whole story... you'd know that he isn't really "Scheming or Sinister"

[Damnationstation]

I know the official voices of some characters Ragna- Patrick seitz Jin- David Vincent Noel- Cristina Valenzuela Tager- Jamieson price Rachel- Mela lee (Rozen maiden yea!) Taokaka-??? Arakune- Spike spencer Bang- Tony Oliver Carl- Michelle Ruff Hakumen- David Vincent V-13- Cristina Valenzuela

[naruto824]

im not saying that when she moans like a bitch havin sex in the jap voice is bad. did I say that it was bad hmm? didnt think so anyway she sounds good in english i like it better that way

[OMGitsaBLAST]

i like it!

hurray!

[snakepit000]

V13's voice is pretty good, Litchi's is uhhh... decent... Hopefully we'll have the ability to change individual voices.

[Damnationstation]

I wonder if Vic Mignona will voice in this or Cripis freeman

[AlucardOVA666]

Who would you want them to voice?

[envy400]

I can see what I should expect

Ragna - hearing the new trailer, it must've been Troy Baker

Jin - Jason Spisak or Vic Mignogna (maybe)

Noel - Colleen O'Shaughnessey

Bang - Richard Epcar (if he can be funny as hell) ^

Rachel - Mela Lee (Rozen Maiden all over again)

Arakune - don't care

Taokaka - ?

Haku-Men - only Jamieson Price would make a badass out of this guy.

[SukiyakixD]

Well anyone actually knows for sure if there are individual voice settings or not?

Quit that anime shit, just some voices sound better in english, others in japanes, face it, V13 is awesome in english, Litchi...pretty bad IMHO.

[Faizerino]

V-13 sounds so cool when saying "Open your eyes!" and her other lines. Awesome hands down.

But Litchi...oh no...I'd have to get used to her. I actually prefer her shouting "Mettame gaishi!" in Japanese because when she said it around 1:29; it sounds like it doesn't have high fighting spirit on it.

[envy400]

I can dig Litchi's voice. It's way better than hearing "doh? doh? doh?" all the time :P

[MyWhiteRequiem]

The best thing about this video: the load screen looks really short!

[ndonadio]

V-13 voice is good. It have it sounds just like the character but in English however Litchi is not good enough but definitely is a good voice acting.

[Nitoheifeline]

The English Voices are just fine. The only thing I have to say is that they're less used than the Japanese voices which cuts down the dialogue during battle quite a bit. It's not a bad thing either.

[Writtenjustice]

V-13 is freaking awesome.

[LeonMeekis84]

haha poor bastard

[XINKAI]

haha what a sucker

[XelchanTheBrave]

And here comes again...

Everybody is bitching because "OH MY GOD THE ENGLISH VOICES AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH!!!1-___-'''' "...

It's not that bad, Litchi sounds less stereotyped..

[HaphazardPath]

rofl. while the japanese people do have a little more emotion in their voice acting (why i usually prefer it over english voices) the english voice actors still aren't bad. not bad enough to lose your stuff over it anyway. animu fags need to quit whining about english dub.

[GETBACKTOTHEKITCHEN]

i bet you like anime.

[XINKAI]

exactly, well said

[Sin606]

some voices sound good in one language and some in another I'm not defending those who take the Japanese thing too far now. I think it's awesome that they have dual voice track. I do however wonder if it will be like SF4 because some people sound a little better in a diffrent language. People who don't like the English Voice Actors don't have to listen to them and shouldn't complain to others making people getting pissed. I like mine mixed if possible.

[Cypher0120]

Litchi sounds like Sypha from Castlevania: Judgment. Who voiced her again?

[tinymon]

Chill out. This game has both voice option. *will be playing it in Japanese* Sorry... but the Japanese voice actors are just more convincing than the English one. They put more oomph into it.

[lordshin]

does it have individual voice options like in sf4? cuz ranga english voice is great imo.

[r0q]

English = bleugh

[jfjnpxmy]

Man, what a festering pile of anime and epilepsy.

[BlackChronosXIII]

litchi english voice doesn't sound sexy enough

[diegoleadguitar]

it has to (I hope) in GG Accent Core Plus you can choose sol's voice during story mode (English or Japanese)...then again in GG Overture the voices were in English....I'm still buying it though

[ChaoticSoulBlade]

I'd say that it's Laura Bailey, not Wendee Lee doing Litchi's voice, sounds a lot of ENG Chun-Li.

[Nudoru]

Actually she's voiced by Lauren Landa but you probably knew that by now ^_^;

[kaihedgie]

Oh nice. They actually dubbed the characters in-game, too :3

[Tsuchirinhon]

Litchi sounds like shit.

[showbiznine]

i guess ill have to set the voices to japanese... can't have wendy lee burning my ears and ruining the game for me...

[Sepheriel]

LOL. I mean Wendy Lee is good in certain roles but DAMN is she over employed. She's in everything. Can't they get other voice actors?

[envy400]

That's what makes her the queen of voice acting. Even at her age, her voice is young enough to be.....whatshername from Lucky Star. you should see others who are moving up ranks like Yuri Lowenthal. Even being overemployed means it's just business

[Nudoru]

I know this comment is kind of old but well, Tara Strong has done more roles then Wendee Lee. She's currently done the most in english voice acting, surpassing Tom Kenny ;)

[selitham]

Though I enjoy v's voice, it sounds like her JP voice only English and a little deeper.

[selitham]

I dont know, this is the 2D first fighting game(I think) to have Eng. voices, but it doesn't fit well since this game has the fighters talking most of the time, and with the Jap. voices, you don't understand most of the time.

[ChaoticSoulBlade]

SF4 has 'em too.

[Valkerion]

dont know how people game without them haha

[selitham]

I did think of that, why do you think I said "do you like being trolled?"

[Cuzuco456]

can wait to play this game

[naruto824]

yeah whatever with your opinion oscar the voices are fine with me besides if you ever heard litchi's voice throughout the game you would be annoyed within 10 seconds of the moaning and groaning or you'd be uber perverted by the sound of her voice since in the jap version she sounds like shes having sex every time she get hit.(i think everyone agrees with me on this fact!) just think about that and tell me which one is better?

[Sanjyushi]

The one where she sounds like she is having sex.

[SukiyakixD]

Is that supposed to be a bad thing?

[catzblu999]

Is this PS3 or Xbox footage?

[llamastrike]

If memory serves me right, then this was recorded on the xbox.

[IL0veVide0Games]

Does it matter? Arent they the same thing? lol

[mrbucket1337]

Is it Arcade Perfect?

[kaihedgie]

Weeabos came to descend upon your comment for preferrin' English over Japanese. And they came down hard D:

[accelvist]

Weeaboos?

Oh, you so cool~

[kaihedgie]

Pffffft D:

[limyuhui]

o_o cant believe it V-13 Have A Nice English Voice

[OscarMaris]

those voices suck donkey nuts

[Aytbitt]

I'm probably just not up-to-date with BB's mechanics, but why is Litchi not taking any chip damage at 1:40? She had already used her burst by that point, so is she still using faultless defense thing?

[Rhannmah]

That's very simple. That's because these attacks aren't special moves, but simply some of v-13's ground normals.

[Koiyuki]

Litchi has a strong Valley Girl thing going on with her English voice

[repukken]

Actually, the soundtrack is more than the arrange, it contains tracks from the console version, more than just the arcade tracks. As for the DVD, its a huge tutorial made by US and JPN players, NOT JUST US PLAYERS ONLY

[ChaoticSoulBlade]

Any chance on getting the PV version of Under Heaven Destruction and LUST Sin on the second OST?

[RobbieC21]

V-13 seems to talk much less in English I like this : )

[ggxxslash]

WOW litchi sound terrible! They should have got Wendy Lee to do her voice!

[Sepheriel]

Wendy Lee is so over employed it is not even funny. It this she does so many voice roles it detracts from the characters she voices.

[ggxxslash]

well she IS the most credited Voice actor in America. I don't think shes that bad, I didn't even know it was her doing the voice of Naoto in P4 till i researched it. And shes way better than that awful Amanda Winn-lee.

[Sepheriel]

I mean yeah that's true but I mean I've heard her in SO many roles that I just see her in the booth recording and not the character. Amanda Winn-lee is good in my opinion. She portrayed Rei in Evangelion really well. I saw she did Mimiru in .hack//SIGN and the voice she gave her fit her character. If you wanna talk about bad voice acting then look at anything by 4Kids.

[ggxxslash]

LOL, 4Kids doesn't even count as voice acting. but Yeah I would say Rei was the only good voice for Amanda. everything else was JUNK!

[Sepheriel]

Haha. I guess they don't. Amanda acutally hasn't done much.

[kaihedgie]

I wouldn't be so sure

Dan Green and Mike Pollock for instance

[AtTheGates]

acting's a lot better than i expected. it's mainly of importance for the story mode, though.

anyway, i'm getting the japanese version

[ChaosLlama]

Why get the japanese version? the US version comes with lots of nice extras.

[AtTheGates]

the US version has an extra soundtrack that has the same number of tracks, so its probably arranged. NN. i got the japanese soundtrack. also, the bonus dvd has guides on how to play chars, by US players. NN as well. also, jap version comes out a little sooner.

[repukken]

Actually, the soundtrack is more than the arrange, it contains tracks from the console version, more than just the arcade tracks. As for the DVD, its a huge tutorial made by US and JPN players, NOT JUST US PLAYERS ONLY

[realmskifter]

My ears are still bleeding...

[Sepheriel]

Sounds like this game will have some very good English voice acting if this video is any indication. Still have to wait another month though :(

[ArkradosKeiresk]

And shoryuken spam only works on idiots, because it's completely punishable.

[Schlippan]

well

[turok3900]

crazy gameplay man u got 2 find more 5 stas

[RaveDX]

Im just glad Blazblue dosnt have crappy English voice actors like in the Guilty Gear mini movie. I just cant get over the (atleast)decent voice acting in this game ^^....I think its, if not the first, one of the first 2D fighters with good voice acting XD.Awsome-ness ^^....

[ValliereVee]

OMG yay!

[dback618]

They talk wayyyy too much, even more than GG

[dusk112]

They talk a whole lot less compared to their japanese voices actually

[igotdembombs]

This game has awesome music! It confuses me as to why they designed characters that NEVER SHUT THE FUCK UP. SERIOUSLY SHUT THE FUCK UP THERE'S A 20 COMBO YOU DON'T NEED TO SAY SOME SHIT FOR EVERY HIT! And that's something that switching to Jap voice acting won't fix. But at least in the Jap version they are trying to sound legitimate.

[MugiwaraNoSlime]

it's true, blazblue lacks a tag team system and terry bogard

[TheBlacknoah]

Dubbing's not bad. My only gripe is that v-13's voice is almost inaudible (I can't hear her too much) compared to the Japanese version (MONDAI NAI!). But all in all, it's cool. :D

[ArkradosKeiresk]

Yeah, her voice is REALLY light. And she sounds bored. Litchi...God she sounds horrible, she didn't even try did she?

[impur1ty]

yea its a very apatheic tone, probably fits into her character's story tho.

[RaveDX]

I dunno', compared to other 2D or 2D-3D games Ive seen...this game takes the cake in voice acting, Im glad its atleast decent voice acting for such a cool game ^^;....

[llamastrike]

Tao has some of the best dubbing, "I'm gonna get you for stealing that TUNA!" "IMMA beat the crap outta you!"

[NightmareSamus]

Only complaint v-13 is too soft, can't hear her too well. Other than that, awesome!

[EmperorPaine]

Regardless of whether someone like the English dub or Japanese shouldn't matter. What matter is how the gameplay holds up and if anything else how bad will the game lag when playing online.

[kariido1]

I think I'll just switch all the voices to Japanese, just like in SFIV.

Why bother putting in English voices anyway?

[geekgo4]

Maybe so some people can UNDERSTAND what they're saying?!

[Writtenjustice]

I love V-13. Listen to her; she just doesn't care!

[MikeLXXXVIII]

I have to try this game, as looking at the gameplay doesn't grab me. Personally seems floaty compared to other 2d fighters.

[darknessredefine]

Japanese voices are OVERRATED

[ShardZERO]

the point isn't how good jp voiceacting is so much as how bad english dubbing tends to be. troll harder.

[darknessredefine]

i like knowing what the characters are saying and being that i don't speak Japanese. i am going to have to go with the bad english dubbing as you call it.

[ShardZERO]

And that's cool, I have no issue whatsoever with someone preferring English dubbing. However, you didn't state a preference, you made a blanket statement.

[rock1644]

Yes, they over-act too much.

[kaihedgie]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

-Handz ye a cookie-

[TekkenHore]

Im so gnna buy this game! :)

[pranagy]

Goryus you suck. Go back to Bang >: {

[Shindrah09]

I like V-13's voice, not so much litchi's, although it sounds like one of those that could grow on me.

[woofycakes]

whys this comment downthumbed its true

[PsychoJosh]

Excellent, now the worst and most retarded character designs ever have ENGLISH voices! Be annoyed to death in any language you want!!

[BenInSJ]

draw some giantess porn about it

[PsychoJosh]

I only draw characters that don't suck, so no

[BenInSJ]

since when?

[PsychoJosh]

None of the characters in this game are worthy of any sort of praise, they're only for dicksucking anime faggots like you. I won't even dignify them by even thinking of drawing them.

[BenInSJ]

anime is bad, your drawings are bad. it seems like a good match.

[PsychoJosh]

My drawings, or the ones you've seen anyways, were all done 5 or more years ago. You've got jack shit on me bitch

[BenInSJ]

Yeah, and they were all of anime girl giantesses with furry vaginas.

[ShardZERO]

picky weeaboo is picky.

[JinKisaragi]

Epic troll

[PsychoJosh]

Yeah except it's not really trolling and this game's character designs suck epic amounts of shit just like Guilty Gear. A true successor to the mountain of shit that is ArcSys's most popular franchise.

[SamuraiX7]

cool story bro!

[JinKisaragi]

If you hate it so much then why do I see your comments on many BlazBlue videos? I'm sure deep inside you like this game just as much as the rest of us :D

[ArkradosKeiresk]

Anyone who calls Guilty Gear a pile of shit is either drunk, high, trolling, or without taste.

[PsychoJosh]

Anyone who calls Guilty Gear a pile of shit is a scholar and a gentleman, because they are not incorrect. Guilty Gear is the fetid ichor that flows through the rat-infested sewers of the fighting game world, worthless excrement not worthy of attention that will eternally be trapped in the dark tunnels beneath the domiciles of fighting games far superior to it.

[ArkradosKeiresk]

2 things. One, don't use words you don't know. Two, being obscure doesn't make it bad, it just makes it not popular. It is a very fun, fast, intense fighter with shit happening at all times. You comparing it to a bad smelling wound and basically calling it beneath the mainstream fighters only shows that your intellect is lacking, and you try to cover that with vocabulary.

[ChaoticSoulBlade]

I wouldn't work yourself too much over that twerp. Dude's upset he can't shoryuken spam his way to victory in this game or in GG

[ArkradosKeiresk]

Too bad I use Fei Long in Street Fighter

[therevolt1210]

To bad its one of the most balanced fighting games on the market.

[ArkradosKeiresk]

Sagat, Blanka. That's all I need to say.

[PsychoJosh]

Yeah, whatever. I don't buy that for a second.

[selitham]

If you hate Arc System Works so much, then stay away from anything that relates to them, you get trolled half the time when you talk stuff like this, do you like that?

[PsychoJosh]

Maybe I love it, you ever think of that, dipshit?

[selitham]

You love cursing too, don't you?

[selitham]

If you love being replied by a bunch of people with insults in their messages and getting 5 replies a day on the subject.

[ggxxslash]

... no u

[UtsusuZero]

...no you.

[ShardZERO]

brb jizzing pants

[matman125]

Very nice!

[magus7]

v-13 voice = <3

litchi voice = ;_;

[holyordersol]

V-13's voice was done pretty well, it just needed to be a little louder & echo a bit more, but I loved the emotionless feel in her voice.

Litchi's voice was pretty good as well, but there were some lines that just felt like they didn't have enough emotion. But it's far better than I expected.

I hope the other English voices won't disappoint.

[PoolsAnonymous]

You know, you could always get BOTH games.

[xchaosx97]

I think I'll stick with Japanese voices XD , btw are you able to switch between the two languages in the game?

[yazoo300]

Yeah, both JPN & ENG voices are available

[repukken]

Actually, V13 is very beatable.

[SSMugen]

More beatable than a good Arakune if you ask me XD

[Ngrhymes]

Agreed, V-13 isn't the end all character in this game, regardless of the fact she is the final boss. An experienced player knows that she is very exposed while using her ranged attacks and any whiff is a golden invitation for a serious punishment. Furthermore, V-13 is not a "pick up and play" character, so two new players playing will find that V-13 is nothing major.

[luv269u]

v-13 is gonna ruin this game.

[lxMetalSonicxl]

Finally!!

[RX7jkr]

I think you're a little confused, I thought you meant to say "KoF XII has nothing on BlazBlue". No K', Kula Diamond, a downgraded Iori and the loss of XI's battle system ruined any hopes of getting that game for me.

[Sourdog123]

Bah shut up tengu. Go look up your fat chicks xD

[MugiwaraNoSlime]

I just hope Rachel isn't voiced by Michelle Ruff, because it seems like the sort of thing they'd do. :|

[SeventhSun]

Gameplay looks good. Graphics are quite comparable to the arcade version. But the announcer's voice is wack.

I wish I could just like, you know, hack at her over and over gently with a cleaver beginning from her throat.

[cookyspooky]

I really like their voices. Very fond of Litchi's voice and Nu's is very well done as well!

[Vulcan422]

English voices are epic win.

[Seifersythe]

Nice!
