LOL She looks jacked up in that pic. Well, I feel for you Zhu Rong, getting treated that way by the VA of one of your fav characters? Hope you can still play as Rong or she gets a new VA in 6. Anyway, wish you the best!

Keiji's and Kenshin's voices in WO truly killed me a bit inside. My 3rd and 4th favourite SW characters, who both had good, if not awesome, voices in SW2...both killed -_-

I can see Kenshin killing you inside(no one has done a worse job at Kenshin) because of his voice*shudders* but Keiji has the best VA for Keiji since Blum and Ueda no doubt about it.

I miss Hideyoshi's SW2 voice :(

I think just about everyone does, Hideyoshi's voice in Orochi is terrible; SW2 however combined a great quirkiness with style. Not the foolish form we now have.

I'm really growing to Oda Nobunaga's new voice actor, he still has his very cool and calm nature; but I think this suits him more. A little less demonic but still very calm, calculated & collected - much more suitable.

And try stay on topic guys, I have no idea what some of those other recent posts are about...

Woah, thats pretty wierd. O_O What the hell is wrong with them? Good voice acting is no reason for them to act like that.

Not unless they think she's a creepy stalker.

I don't know why Steve Blum didn't do the VA for Sun Jian or Xiahou Yuan in WO. Though I am more upset about Sun Jian's voice --Xiahou Yaun was fine.

Hideyoshi's voice just makes my ears bleed. I would never be able to take him seriously with that voice. I just hope it changes when SW2XL comes out, because the video clips he's in are intense and it'll be terribly downplayed with that voice.

The Qiao sisters, Oichi, and Nene sounded altogether awful, in fact they sounded like they were played by the same voice actress. No variety to their voices at all, just all high-pitch and screeching.

Why can't the people who audition and record these VAs recognize the good from the bad?
A lot of the problem I think is the fact that the characters' voices are always changing. I can't connect which voice is to whom because I know it'll just change later.

I noticed no change in Sun Jian's voice from DW5XL...Or any change in Xiahou Yuans...

Hideyoshi's voice has grown on me, I hated it at first but I don't mind it so much now...

Those girls sound fine to me, except Oichi who sounds stupid. I liked the SW2 voice.

I've always wanted to be a VA, know that I think about it. I'd like to do Hanzo's voice, or Masamune's.

I think the voices have become worse @_@~ maybe just because I'm used to the other voices, but I think they just fitted better. ARGH!!! nooo, they just became worse :( Like Shimazu's and Ginchiyo's voices for example, I liked them much better before...Even Xing Cai's before horrible voice hasn't improved, the new one doesn't fit her character o_o at least they kept Gan Ning's XD; or so it seems to me...? o.o nooo, they're all just horrible Q___Q I think it's a pity, really...

the voices are fine for me for the most part, like many Hideyoshi's doesn't work for him at all...but strangely it makes me laugh, like hey I'm the unifier of the land but I sound like I sucked on helium

After playing A LOT with Hideyoshi, I think to understand the true meaning of his new

voice.

In SW2 he was mostly serious, even if he joked sometimes( like his enemy officer

defeated quote) his voice suited his new personality, also the Japanese Seiyuu changed

into a more serious one.

BUT in WO....Hideyoshi is....simply silly.

His lines doesn't match his SW2 personality, since he is really idiot and jokes about

EVERYTHING, like his quotes to SSX or Lu Bu's one in SW 8X.

So the guys at KOEI decided to give him a Bugs Bunny VA to match his new personality,

and I think he fits after all.....don't you think?

I think Hideyoshi's voice does sound monkey like which is why they changed it, to fit his personality. As for Xiahou Yuan's voice, it's the same as it was in Dynasty Warriors 5 which was done by Steve Jay Blum. I just don't understand why he couldn't stick to Sun Jian's voice as well.

Nope, Yuan's not Blum in WO, probably his DW5E voice, but i don't know, i don't go for the Empires games, still for not being Blum the other guy does an ok job and gets the same type of voice so it works.

I find that Sun Jians voice makes him sound like he has a cold or something. Especially when he says "Fear the Tiger of Jiang Dong". Its quite funny at times though :P

I now dont like Oichi's voice it just doesnt sound as kind and gentle as her old voice did.

I still absolutly hate Xing Cai's. All the windows break when she shreaks "Skewered" and its just horrible when she says "A valuable ally indeed" urggg

Really? I found that Xing Cai's voice was better as she has a lot more energy in her voice and she doesn't sound dull and lifeless as she use to.

Oichi and Sun jian's VO were pretty well the same to me. I found Oichi's voice a little better as it has a little more enthusiasim but still not that great and actually still pretty similar to her previous. I found her seriyu was very good. Especially in her ending in SW2

Sun Jian's VO is still pretty well the same.... Which is still very crappy.

Well, Lu Bu's voice has remained very similar in all games IMO. Thats not a bad thing either. No major changes in his unlike Hideyoshi's. <_<

Shingen sounds WAY too much like Lu Bu. :P

We emailed each other...got to know each other. One day I decided to call them, and we had a nice chat. I called again a few weeks later, and Jessica got all mad, she was like "Please don't call its disruptive you are the first fan to ever do this mah mah mah MAH" I was shocked. I emailed her many times to ask for forgiveness. I never got any. I called one day a few weeks ago. It was Grant. He said he'd let her know I called, and he seemed very nice. What do you know, I get an email in the evening, which is the one I posted a few days ago, the one in bold. I was infuriated, I was mad. Now I get an email yesterday from Jessica. What does it say?

Erica,

What is your parent's number and where do you live?

J


I responded

Huh?

She replied

Grant and I would like to have a word with them.

By then, I was in total shock. Even more so than before. How can she do this to me? Ask me for my parents phone number!!!!! It's a total invasion of privacy!

I deleted all the emails from her and ones sent to her. I erased her from my contact list, and my emailing list. The Goddess Of Fire HAS met her end, since I beat her senseless...so has the Tiger of Wu. May he burn with her.....

And to think I trusted them...

When I first came on here I expressed my hate for Noh's Canadian VA in SW2, Alisha Ruiss. I said I hated her. Eventually Chin helped me to forgive her and we became friends.

It's never gonna work out with these two Americans....I mean, I am American too lol....

And for those who don't feel like clicking back a few posts to see the email...here's my October 10th post.

Quote:
 
I'm never speaking to Jessica Gee again. She obviously hates me. She sent me an email that went something like this...

Erica,

We were happy to talk to you a few times but we are now asking that you absolutely refrain from calling our home. It is not appropriate. In fact, it is a turn-off. You are the first “fan” to do this and it is just not cool. You have really run the course with us and we are asking that you just stop and let this rest.



Thanks. Jessica and Grant





"Run the course"? Exactly how did I "run the course" Jessica?
"Fan?" Why not just fan? Does she think I'm a stalker or something?

I am very upset, I just sent her an ecard, however I don't think she will want it.

A late response, but I felt I needed to comment on this.

Voice actors are people. Just because you spoke to them once or twice as a fan of one of the characters they voice, doesn't suddenly mean you'll become their best friend or anything of the sort. It simply doesn't work that way with many professionals(or just in real life period.)

Furthermore, and this may be a shock to you, but your personality is overbearing and aggravating at times from the few times I've spoken to you on these boards (like our debate over Nouhime's English voices a few months ago.) It's very possible you rubbed off on the Grants as a "rabid fan" of sorts, and they feel that your constant calling/e-mail/other form of contact is disturbing and akin to a stalker fan, which do exist.

Since she said you were the first to do this, they themselves might have been unnerved that you might try to pursue further contact into their private lives, and so they wished to speak with your parents about your behavior. I'm honestly flabbergasted that you have the audacity to declare their request to speak with your parents as an invasion of privacy when you have been contacting them often yourself and intruding into their privacy as well.

It's good to hear that Alisha is still an acquaintance, though. It's possible that she's just more open to engaging with really earnest fans like yourself.
