They better get the original VA's back..., ...for the potential US release.

Okay, so 75% of the ToS characters that appeared in Tales of the World had "meh" voices ("ugh" for Lloyd), and Lloyd's new VA reappeared in Soul Calibur Legends because absolutely no one wanted him back.

It's due to the VA company: they've been using Cup of Tea for Tales releases as of late, and Blindlight did ToS' voice acting... so unless they boost their budget or get Nintendo to fund it, we're stuck with the new voice actors.

I've got 3 pages worth of a letter asking Namdai to get the voice actors back, should they announce a US release...

Do you guys feel the same? Would it be okay if I post the Tales department's email here so we could get our opinion out?

Besides, Lloyd can't PWN fayt leinclod without his old VA... well he can, but it wouldn't be the same...

There's a reason they can't get Lloyd's original voice back. I think it has something to do with his contract.

And lawl. Lloyd's new voice is the voice actor of Takato from Digimon. XD

But anyway, like I said, it might have something to deal with Scott Menville's contract. That, or they can't pay for him. I think it's the first one.

Yeah his voice in RM wasn't brill. They managed to keep Cam Clarke for Kratos though... but it doesn't look like Kratos is in this one. Lame!

I bet they'll manage to get Jennifer Hale back, she's in like everything afterall, Shiloh Strong I reckon they could because he did whatshisface's voice in ToL... Tara Strong maybe and Crispin Freeman might as he does anime 99% of the time anyways.

But yeahs, might not be Scott Menville ever again. No more "Sword Rain AlpTITANS GO!"

I'll miss Lloyds original voice. It's going to be weird to hear him and not automatically think, Teen Titans ;-;

[Absolute Zer0]

I didn't even notice that Lloyd's voice actor was the same as the guy in Teen Titans until someone pointed it out.

But yeah, the new voice actor isn't as good.

My bro used to watch Cartoons alot. I realized instantly that Lloyd and Robin were the same. XD

And if I am correct, Presea is Raven from Teen Titans.

EDIT:

Tales of Symphonia — Presea Combatir, Corrine
Teen Titans — Raven, Kitten, Kole

Yep.

Kafei's goodbye and the return of Brian Beacock... perfect timing for the bad news to be hitting, huh? This video alone killed all of my hype for this game. I think that fayt... actually owns this new Lloyd. Twice over.
