English or Japanese?

>>213 (OP) 
I've been playing Re:Birth in English - it was the default setting on the Vita so I just went with it. However, I have switched back and forth because I've been interested to hear how the CPUs sound in both forms in both languages.  I tend to keep the language in English in battle because I appreciate some of the things yelled out by the girls in battle, and I wouldn't understand it in Japanese. 

However I always play in Japanese when I have MarvelousAQL in my battle party

I agree with this.

Also, not to be racist, but everyone sounds the fucking same in Japanese.

I agree with this to a point. I feel like the more you listen to the Japanese, the more you can pick out the differences in the voices. 

In my case, I like the work Hitomi Harada did as Asuka in Senran Kagura the only game I can think of that I played completely in Japanese and so when I learned that she played Marvy I wanted to see how similarly it was. Given she was picked to play the girl made to directly represent Senran Kagura, I figured my odds of hearing the same character were good.

Although while playing Nep there's something special about hearing our little purple protagonist yell out "gonna HIT YA"

Japanese. I couldn't imagine Perfect Heart without her sex voice, and I like the rest of the cast much better than their english counterparts too.

Which Goddess do you call Perfect Heart? I know a lot of people like Iris Heart, but I wasn't sure if that's who you're going for.
Replies: >>236
Controversial opinion coming through:

I really really REALLY like Compa's English voice, FAR better than her Japanese one.

Purple Heart. Perfect in every way, shape and form. Not waifu though
Replies: >>241
Depends on my mood, don't really care either way.

It doesn't have a dub

I know, and that got me into the Japanese VAs for the series although it did make my first impression of the anime dub a lot harsher than expected. I didn't watch the anime in either English or Japanese, though, since I already knew the story through Burst on 3DS

>>236
Perfect but not waifu? You fancy yourself a flawed girl? Or is your waifu just in a different series?

>>233
Given in English she doesn't desu everything I understand that, but I'm sure it's the exact opposite for someone else. She does sound incredibly ditzy in English, but I think that's what they wanted for her

Nep's English voice was okay for a little bit but then it got REALLY annoying.

Then I tried Japanese voices and I immediately had to switch back because I couldn't deal with the forced "cuteness" that wasn't even marginally cute, just kind of headachy.

I'm fine with most everyone else's English voices though.

Neptune's english voice is pretty good in HDN, but I'm also going back and finally playing after having not played a Nep game in a while so I might be biased.

No, I don't have a waifu.

She's probably the closest that will happen though. Too bad she's just a cloud of ones and zeroes.

True, but for some people, that makes it easier to have one.

Understandable, it is a little high. I like it, but I can understand someone else not being into it
I think Noire's English VA is very spotty, wish she'd be more consistent.

Listen to glorious Imai's goddess voice instead.

and then listen to her eroge voice clips of her getting railed from behind

She was great in HDN and I think mk2 and V, then IFI directed her into crap.

got a link?

>>277
Really? That's a shame. I was wondering if she kept this tone throughout, because working for her in HD Noire looked like it would be fun with her as she is in HDN

I hear it's fun, but really simple, and the traps on the maps don't affect the mooks
I actually use both.

Jp voices for others and eng voices for convos/CGs (if voiced)

Any characters you prefer in one voice over another?

I really don't like Blanc's english VA. It feels like she doesn't even get Blanc's personality
Replies: >>450 >>456
>>449
Well obviously english VA's can't do shit right
>>449
None of them do
This might be an unpopular opinion, but I really don't mind the English VA's at all. Live and let live, I say.

>tfw i realized that Nepgear English VA is a flip
Replies: >>481
>>477
Does it sound like a flip, though? I haven't listened to her English VAs, had to swap immediately
I switch between them a lot, because I like Japanese voices, but I can't understand what they are saying during battles. 

I tried english voices for dialogues too, but Japanese voices sound cuter in my ears.

So far I can say the only thing I don't like about dub is Noire's HDD voice, and absolutely love english Compa, even more fitting than the Japanese one

Black Heart's dub voice annoys me as well. She goes from valley girl to fake posh english for no reason
>>474

I agree, but that's because we're New Weebs, or Neweebs, who are basically disgusting baka gaijin normies to the glorious 1000-times-folded weebs of times past.
Fixing this one too.
