I know. I'm so scared to hear the English voice's for this game on when it comes out on the 25th. But I am going to get it anyway to support the localization of more of the Puyo games in the future. Even though I already have it for the PS3. XD
I actually prefer the English voice actors. The Japanese voice actors are really good though. I actually prefer Satan's Japanese voice. He STEALS the show.
Your Local Pokespe Queen Yeah... I have no idea why they decided to focus solely on the joke side for the characters in English. Like, yes, Satan isn't really a very big threat in Puyo Puyo, but he is still supposed to sound intimidating and serious for the most part because he is still the ruler of the underworld. There are some others in the English dub that are just unforgivable as well, like Sig who sounds like an angsty teen in English or Lemres who sounds like an old west cowboy for some reason. I mean, for the most part the English cast is fine. Ringo sounds great, Arle sounds fine despite Carbuncle sounding awful, Amitie's new English voice is good too even though part of me misses her old Fever voice. The entire Starship Tetra crew sound phenomenal (including Ex). Schezo is PERFECT. Maguro and Ecolo both fit very well. Rule sounds fine too. I also miss Accord's old VA, she sounded so soothing and calm back in Fever, but I do understand that they had to change her.
Extremely late reply, but i think that if they didn't add the Tetris characters a lot of stuff would have to be explained? It'd be weird if it was "oh look blocks are falling cuz of like ecolo or smthn" instead of "THIS GUY HAS DEPRESSION SO HE CAUSED TWO UNIVERSES TO CONNECT AND NOW BLOCKS ARE RAINING FROM THE HEAVENS"
