Japanese Misuzu sounds like she's trying harder to get that cutesy moe voice down rather than act, and while the English voice suffers from a similar attempt at cute, I find the English VA more believable.

I was wondering how they would handle the Kanon ladies, because it seems like a Kanon license would hinge on Air's success, but for people who didn't like the voices, I wouldn't worry too much.

What's interesting to me is that this series airs on Anime Network VOD as a Girl Power (shoujo?) title.
Get rid of the notion that it is aimed towards guys (Japanese male otaku specifically), and it might actually appeal to some casual female anime fans. Well, that's what I think.
