    Please fire whoever hired the voice actor for Ga Bu and the Ga Bu voice actor

    I'm not even joking here. This is some; "Do you have a voice at all whatsoever? Yes!? You're hired!" tier of voice acting work and pulls you out of the scenes entirely. Please aim even an angstrom higher than bottom of the barrel next time.

    The VAs for all of the kobolds was awful, really. Didn't fit them at all. Not even a little bit.

    Nope. I'd say a lot of the VA work that goes into the game is hit or miss though. But when they get it right, they REALLY get it right. Gosetsu comes to mind. It just doesn't happen very often, at least in my opinion.

    Zenos, as much as I loathe him, has a great VA. Same with Fandaniel... and Varis, Elidibus, Yotsuyu, Lahabrea, Igeyorhm "shadowhunter" Gaius, Vauthry, Thunder God, Ran'jit, Urianger, Thancred, Y'shtola... Emet-Selch I'm a bit iffy about, he's the one case where I liked the JP version better, but I guess technically he's a good VA and he stood out for good reasons.

    It comes down to personal preference, but I prefer the English VA for the most part. There's a lot of characters which I think sound more generic/annoying in JP, such as Alisaie, Y'shtola, Yotsuyu etc.

    I've noticed in JP dubs that while the men usually have spot on voices, females can be a bit all over the place. I'm fine with some of them, but the higher pitched ones I just do not like, it's more often then not grating on the ears. I understand it's a cultural thing, but I prefer to hear a little bass behind the voice.

    My favorite part about the Japanese dub is what they did to Yuyuhase.
    And for any about to watch this clip, remember, this is the first time Yuyuhase speaks. Before this scene he isn't voiced yet.

    The answer is clearly to use the Japanese audio.

    This is why Lala's can't bend their knees as they walk, too much... down there.

    Although not as deep, Pipin's is another enjoyable voice.
