Huh. Was not expecting JapaneseDub!Jack Bauer to voice Ronaldo.

Junichi Suwabe as Yamato...is not as surprising, though.

The characters all sound good. Nice to see some of the others get little cameos (except for Fumi and Ronaldo, oddly enough).

Looking forward to the finished product. The trailer music is clear that Nakagawa is going to deliver something good, even if a good portion of the OST is going to sound like it came from a mariachi band.

Okay. I'm just going to get this out of the way. I am NOT going to be able to pay attention to AO in this anime. Because I'm going to be mesmerized by his GIANT EYELASHES. :stare:

If you look really closely, you can see that they're more like scars as opposed to eyelashes. The anime just makes it so much more pronounced that it's really awkward to look at.


Huh. I guess you're right. Although...that'd be something I'd tone down in the anime, not slap about 1000 neon signs on them and have all of the signs say "LookatmeLookatmeLookatmeLookatmeLookatme!", which is what they went for. Still, it's minor...but jarring. Still waiting on hearing how Kotaru Nakagawa's music will sound. And how many mariachi bands he'll bring for the ride.

Great. That means they're following the manga adaptation like Strange Quark said...although that means that we're probably not going to see Joe until his death clip where he meets up with Ronaldo.

Hi, Laura Bailey. Also, I recognize the I WILL BECOME A SAMURAI voice from somewhere, but can't put my finger on it. I think it's Steve from Catherine, but I'm not sure. Oh yeah and Kyle Hebert as the loud guy, but that's the most obvious one.
It almost sounds like Yuri Lowenthal trying to be super-serious and/or hiding his usual voice characteristics. Sounds bizarrely forced, to be honest.

I find the artstyle really cute, though I agree stuff like the way Yukiko's bangs get all pixelly and weird at the ends is a bit off.
I think that's in part due to Yukiko having her jet black hair being set in front of her very bright red sweater.

I cannot stop laughing at how Koromaru floats during dialogue scenes. Although...I can smell the bad comments/fanart/Tumblr posts that the shrunken-down Yukari scene is going to spawn.

Also, Koro beats you out by a mile, Teddie. He doesn't have stupidly annoying squeaking noises when he walks around. Therefore, Koromaru is the better cute and furry companion. :colbert:

Rise is going to have dance moves as her attacks. Calling it now. As for Himiko, there was that time in the P4 anime where it straight up headbutt-tackles Ameno-No-Sagiri with the other Personas, so they might be able to work something out of it.

Ken's spear is going to be one hell of a weapon. I'm betting on him gaining a spear variant of Dante's Prop Shredder move from MvC3.

Rie Kugimiya for Rise makes some degree of sense conceptually but dear god does it get super annoying really fast.

The decision to have Japanese Teddie voiced by a dog whistle, on the other hand, is just plain awful.
I maintain that Kappei Yamaguchi is a decent voice actor when he talks in a normal voice (See: Usopp, Sogeking or Tasuku Shinguji) without needing to go into a high-pitched falsetto.

That said, his Teddie voice is the second worst sounding vocal performance he's ever done. The absolute worst goes to his Rattrap performance.

Turns out there are no canon names for the P3/4 protags, since you get to enter in names for them.
I notice the trailer mentions you can have up to 20 allies to choose from...yet the party selection screen in the trailer only has 18 characters. The early animated trailers did feature Margaret and Elizabeth, so maybe those two are the remaining playable characters despite having other jobs in-game.

Edit: Unless they're counting Rise and Fuuka, despite them being support characters.
