So... Merlwyb will be voiced

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

No. It's not ok in either case, so you may want to stop pulling out "double standards" where they don't exist to try and paint the heroic western voice actors as the poor victims of the cruel "weaboo" fanbase.

That was pretty spot on actually, people will crucify a VA for mis-pronunciation of a name but JP voice actors get a free pass when they butcher Western names and words phonetically.

I guess It's because they are superior in every way It's not held over their heads as a fault like other VAs.

Get a free pass from who again?

Sounds like hearsay to me: "hey, some people I may or may not know give Japanese VAs a free pass for name pronunciation, obviously everyone must do that!"

Sorry. Doesn't work like that.

There is a wind...it blows...but what does it say?

Meh dun care >.>

The fact that you wasted a post to comment means that you quite obviously care.

I can only say that I cringe at broken English just as much as I cringe at any broken language... on the inside that is.

What I see happening here is, once again, a group of people being judged by the minority of their members. How many "OMFG KAWAII DESUUU UGUUU" people do you really know?

Bingo.
