I thought this video was great. I've yet to complete RE:COM, but I'm kinda glad I watched this. See if you can identify any of the actors, Japanese or English. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA1eWGbK7e0So, what does everything think of the voice actors?

I like some of the English, some of the Japanese. Zexion is lots better in Japanese, for instance.
I don't really like Vexen in English, Zexion is okay and Lexaeus is a overtly dramatic, I really like Larxene... sounds like Olette to me, and Marluxia is like a 1000 better than the Japanese one.
So it's like Marlucia? Makes more sense than Lucksia or Looksia.

Vexen was a little weird in English, but it was ok... Zexion was good in English but a little better in Japanese. Overall for Kingdom Hearts I've always liked the English translation better, it has always suited the characters more in my opinion. The only real problem was that Marluxia in the english translation sounded like a robot at the beginning x-x
Now I'm also going to have to get used to saying his name like Marlucia instead of Marlucksia.

I actually knew some of those voice actors, too. I know Derek Stephen Prince (Vexen) is also Sano from Samurai X and Shino from Naruto. David Boat (Lexaeus) played Weiss from Dirge of Cerberus (!!!!!). My sister said the Japanese voice actor who plays Vexen also plays Gaara of Naruto. Keith Ferguson (Marluxia) plays Basch from Final Fantasy XII and, surprisingly, he also plays Bloo from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends... Yeah....
I'm not too sure on the others, but I'm positive about the ones I named. And, seriously, Mar-lu-cia? It sounds more evil as Mar-luck-sia.

I know! D: I also preferred saying Marlucksia and I still have troubles not saying it >: ah well
I also find the fact that the guy who voiced Marluxia also voiced Bloo to be hilarious x] I can just imagine Marluxia watching Foster's home for imaginary friends...

It's weird hearing him as Basch, too. Basch is this total image of masculinity, and here's Marluxia, donning pink hair. *snark*
