Who do you think Master Xehanort’s new voice actor will be?
Ryusuke replied to Wan_Pisu's topic in Poll of the Week
Hopefully it'll be someone good. Scott Glenn has a good voice for it, but I dunno if he's done any character voice work or dubbing before. Jim Cummings would be good. If it were 8 years ago, Christopher Lloyd would've been great, but he's way too old now.- 14 replies

She has a couple of weird lines in that scene, but those are directing issues. Her voice suits Kairi a bit more than Hayden does right now. Hayden's voice is just too deep. Alyson Stoner has gotten leagues better ever since Young Justice.

Master of Masters kinda sounds like Josh Keaton to me.

Willa Holland's Voice Acting in the Trailer
Ryusuke replied to clatter411's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
The only time Holland felt like Aqua was in the Final Mix extra stuff. It gave me hope she got better. But, this was....like....a step backwards to where she was again. She's not emoting enough and she's speaking way too close to the mic, too. Her mic peaked, too. -
What do you think of Sora's Character?
Ryusuke replied to itsroxas's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
He's pretty bottom of the barrel as far as overly compotent, but naive main characters go. It doesn't help that he doesn't get much compared to the other characters, despite being around the most. He has his moments though. -
Drake Bell in KINGDOM HEARTS III?
Ryusuke replied to 143436611Xxcc's topic in Kingdom Hearts III & Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind
That's...actually archive audio. Hamill's voice is far too old and scratchy at this point to do younger voices, even with modulation. And, if they could do modulation, they could've done it a long time ago (with Osment). And, yeah, it does sound like Drake Bell. It could be Justin Cowden (Hayner), too. -
In terms of character arc, Roxas and Riku and beautifully imperfect, and their development is one of the shining bits of this nonsensical story. Aqua is my favorite though. I also like how proactive Data Sora is compared to normal Sora.

Xehanort's Japanese Voice Actor passed away
Ryusuke replied to Keyblade Guardian's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
This one hits hard. He was one of the voices that was all over my childhood, specifically Dr. Eggman. I loved his performances in Dragon Ball, Lupin III, One Piece and various others. He will be sorely missed. Condolences to Akio Otsuka and his family. -
Symphony of Sorcery. No contest. A lot of love went into the world, right down to the sound design. It was simply fantastic.

Say What You Like AND Dislike About Each Kingdom Hearts Game
Ryusuke replied to Shulk's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
KH1 + The Best Usage of Disney + Felt more like a Disney movie + Billy Zane as Ansem - Aged a little - Camera, good god the camera - Gummi Ship missions were a chore CoM/Re:CoM + The story is my favorite in the series - The gameplay is terrible. KHII + Fun gameplay. + Tons of stuff to do (and even MORE in Final Mix) + The Gummi Ship missions were AWESOME - The story was very barebones - The three hour tutorial Days + Pretty decent character development - The gameplay was really tedious - The twist with Xion. Yeah, I'm still mixed with it. Blargh. BBS + The best protagonists in the series + Story was fun, despite being kind of stupid + Third best usage of Disney + Music - Ventus is used as a plot tool at the end and it just...doesn't work - Because they wanted to keep the Fate of the Unknown cutscene, Terra's development kinda gets thrown out the window. - Terra and Aqua's voice acting Re:coded + Fun gameplay + Best characterization of Sora + The ending with Roxas - Yeah, it's pretty filler - The dub of the movie was terrible. 3D + Really fun, strategic gameplay + The world's designs are creative + You are rewarded for exploration + FANTASIA + The music - Flowmotion makes things a little too easy at times - Retcons! RETCONS EVERYWHERE - Game can be unbalanced in difficulty - Haley Joel Osment's voice acting -
I'm glad that they did it, but I can't play them because I don't have a PS3, so.... : /
-
That it won't be conclusive. EDIT: Also that the English dub will be as bad as Re:coded. BBS and 3D weren't spectacular either, but Re:coded....HOOOOOOOOO boy..... : |
-
They should have spent more time with the script so that the pauses doesn't sound awkward. It takes effort, but it's not impossible. : / For example....they should never ever end in the word "that". ....just....yeah. It's never a good place to pause. The rhythm of the line just grinds to a halt. : / ...but they probably don't have enough time to perfect the script. =_=

Wow. A lot of the acting got really bad. Osment is trying his best, but he still yells to keep his voice young. It's really off-putting when Sora needs to speak softly and then all his emotion falls flat, especially as it goes on. Riku and Mickey can get really flat. Donald and Goofy were fine, though the lip sync really hold them back, especially in the "Friends are my power" scene. Donald, himself, sounds funky too. Like he's sick or something. Which is odd, because he sounds fine in the Mickey Mouse shorts. Roxas, Jim Cummings, Maleficent, Hades, Hercules (except for that one line), Alice, and Jafar were the only good ones. Genie's alright. I still think he's not crazy enough.

Wow Even BRB Devs Knew Sonic Boom Was Going To Suck
Ryusuke replied to Tails's topic in General Discussion
That's ridiculously frustrating. -
Is the KH Fanbase Really Worse Than The Sonic Fanbase?
Ryusuke replied to Tails's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
In my experience, all fan bases have their own slice of madness, so I dunno. -
What upcoming JRPG are you most excited for?
Ryusuke replied to Minato arisato's topic in General Discussion
Besides the usual, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Persona 5 and Tales of Zestiria. -
In which KH game do you like Sora most
Ryusuke replied to IwasBornAsVentus's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
I liked him in KH1, KH CoM and Re:coded. Re:coded Sora may not be the real deal, but it's amazing how many points in the story where HE is the one that pushes the story forward through his own actions. Real Sora does that sometimes...but not consistently as this. I kinda like it. KH3D Sora really annoyed me. Even some of the Disney characters were like "Yeah, well...just....stand over there for a bit."- 32 replies

Best Voice-Acted Kingdom Hearts?
Ryusuke replied to Buttercup Camera's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
Honestly? The Japanese version. Each and every actor is emotive and full of character. Even the calm and so-called 'emotionless' characters have a certain degree of emotion, but still convey that sense of coldness/mystery/whatever. They fill every scene with life and they're just so fun to listen to because of that. Even the Disney voice actors are pretty good even though sometimes Donald can sound a little awkward....though I think its the fault of the language itself for that voice. But, anyone who can enunciate in THAT voice gets mad props. Good lord. @_@ The English version tends to fall flat on its face a bunch of times. The acting tends to fall flat a majority of the time on original characters, FF characters and sometimes even Disney characters. They suck the scene dry with...well...even drier deliveries. Most of the best acting come from a decent bit of the Disney characters, Billy Zane, Christopher Lee, Corey Burton (despite sounding similar to his other characters), Mark Hamill and even Jesse McCartney is starting to get the hang of more emotional scenes. I just wish they went with trained voice actors for the leads and had a different director. But, if I had to pick one...it'll probably be Kingdom Hearts 1 that had the best voice acting. -
While it really disappoints me that the battles besides Sora v Riku II, Jafar and maybe Cloud v Hercules are anything resembling something cinematic, it was more enjoyable than the Days cutscenes. They really put a lot in the characters' expressions and stuff. Though, then again, the reason why the battle cutscenes were short was probably because they were meant to anchor the actual boss fights. ....but still. agggh.

Do You Think KH3 Will Ever Come To PC?
Ryusuke replied to Tails's topic in Kingdom Hearts III & Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind
Didn't they say they're developing it on PC in the first place? But, even then, if they're using Unreal 4, it'd probably be a better port than the ones we've gotten out of Square. But, who knows? It sure would be nice though. It'd be easier on my wallet. >> -
New rendition of Dearly Beloved played at VGO concert in Taiwan
Ryusuke replied to Sora96's topic in Kingdom Hearts - General
That sounds pretty good, I think! I wonder if that'll be the arrangement they'll use for KHIII.
