This seems like another double standard for people who pass judgement on these VA's. It's okay for the JP voice actors to say "Edo-waado" instead of "Edward", but English VA's get crucified if they don't say certain Japanese names correctly. lol

It personally doesn't bother me as much tho, since I know how certain names are difficult for monolingual speakers (Japanese and English VA's alike). Soukyuu is correct tho, that the more languages you speak, the easier it becomes. I picked up Japanese pronunciation almost immediately because, barring a few differences (such as r=l si=shi etc), its the exact same as Spanish. I picked up on the Roegadyn pronunciations as well from knowing a bit of Dutch (I was able to spot some spelling schemes that indicated it).
