Japanese dub track

[Domayv]

Since 2nd Encore is getting a fully voiced story mode, what would it be like if it also got a Japanese dub track, given that the game has a significant following in Japan.

Here's what the Japanese cast would look like if it got a Japanese dub track.

* Filia/Fukua - Kana Hanazawa
* Samson/Shamone - Tetsu Inada
* Cerebella - Ryoko Shiraishi (given her personality, as well as her connections with the Mafia, it would be appropriate if she speaks Kansai-ben)
* Peacock - Rie Kugimiya
* Parasoul - Yuu Kobayashi
* Ms. Fortune/Robo-Fortune - Shizuka Itou
* Painwheel - Mitsuki Saiga (given how hoarse her voice is in the English track, Mitsuki with definitely make a fit for her)
* Valentine - Romi Park
* Eliza - Sanae Kobayashi
* Sekhmet - Megumi Hayashibara
* Albus - Junichi Suwabe
* Horace - Tomokazu Sugita
* Beowulf - Yuichi Nakamura
* Squigly - Ami Koshimizu
* Leviathan - Toshihiko Seki
* Double - Marina Inoue, Ryo Horikawa (Republican Double) (Kansai-ben + Republicans (which is what the American South is associated with, and people from the Kansai region tend to be stereotyped as hicks just like Southerners) = comedy gold)
* Black Egret Soldiers - Shinichiro Miki, Tsubasa Yonaga, Hiroshi Kamiya and Daisuke Namikawa

*gasp* what if this is that big thing they were gonna reveal at the Anime Expo?? Japanese voice cast for the game lol. i dont think a lot of people'd care though.. lol

i LIKE Kana Ueda but i dont think she'd fit Squigly... i dunno.
Cerebella with a Kansai-ben sounds cool though.

What could make a better fit for her?

Cerebella with a Kansai-ben sounds cool though.

If you wondered why I suggested that Cerebella speak Kansai-ben in the Japanese language track is this:
* Cerebella has connections with the Mafia, and Kansai-ben (to be more exact Osaka-ben) is largely associated with the Yakuza (Japan's answer to the Mafia), the other being comedians.
* Cerebella's personality, being energetic, flashy, spirited, playful and striving to be the center of attention, would make a natural fit for the dialect (Kansai dialect usually indicates indicates someone whose fun-loving, impatient, brash, sometimes an idiot (hence the character archetype "The Idiot From Osaka"), outspoken, foul-mouthed, fond of jokes, moneygrubbing (yet at the same time be usually broke), and/or boisterous; oddly enough, that's how Japan views Americans as so sometimes they'll give them that accent in works featuring them, even if they never went to the Kansai region at all).

Spoiler

If you want to know more about Kansai dialect, here are its international equivalents
* American English: Southern accents (Dixie, Hillbilly/Appalachian, Texas Drawl), New York accent and its variants, Boston accent and its variants
* British English: Cockney (found in London), Brummie (found in Birmingham), Scouse (found in Liverpool)
* Canadian English: Vancouver/British Columbia accent, Toronto accent (Canada's answer to America's New York Accent), Alberta/Prairies accent (Canada's answer to America's Southern accents, though it sounds more like the Midwestern accents than the Southern accents)
* Spanish: Mexico City Spanish
* German: Bavarian/Austrian German, Northern German (i.e. the regions of Germany that hit Denmark and the North and Balltic seas)
* French: Southern France dialect (i.e. the regions that hit the Mediterranean Sea, Italy and Spain)
* Russian: Odessa Russian
* Korean: Busan/Gyeongsang dialect
* Chinese: Shenyang dialect
