Yes. Paku Romi is probably chosen to even narrating one of the promo of season 2 could be because of that. If not, why will a VA voicing a supporting be chosen to narrate a promo? This is just my thought.

You mean, in the last PD? And the people in it thought that lelouch was a female. But Lelouch used his normal voice... WTF seriously.... XD

Yes, I can't believe no one find "her" fishy. If he wanna disguise as a girl, he should learn from Tieria and do it convincingly

I wanna see Lyle's reaction. The worse possibility would be that "he didn't care about who killed his brother" >_>

That should be the way if he want to show the rest that he is different from his brother. But deep down, I'm sure he will be vexed.

However, no one can say that Tieria's female voice sounded "male".

There are certainly some male VA's that have a higher pitch in general that may be confused as female, but for someone like Kamiya who would have to resort to falsettos to create the female sounding voice in that drama CD, I really don't see him with the female Tieria's voice (unless its through software manipulation).


That's because Romi Paku would otherwise be uncredited for ANY role in that episode. Usually if its a small part and the VA already has another role in the episode (Mayu Asuka in Seed Destiny, who had the same VA as Lunamaria, comes to mind), they just leave it out.

Plus its better for the speculation.

I can see your point about why she would have been credited, and your point about the fact that males do have a higher pitch, but I have heard males (not in anime, but in real life) who are able to mimic a women’s voice perfectly. I haven't heard all of Kamiya's roles in anime before, but I wouldn't be surprised that that was actually his voice. The voice he has done in the Drama CD was bad on purpose for comedic effects.

I think it has more to do with Regene being important to the plot, other wise Nena would have also been in the trilers :P

Regene voice is more feminine than Temari or Nana.

That's an old woman voicing a man. Not a man voicing an old woman.

[KiNA]

That just prove I need a sleep @.@

[RAVNEN]

Anyone who did Regene voice sure has made me assume Regene was a girl.
Triple bows for the VA work.

[Tangerine]

Paku Romi is also chosen to narrating the full promo of season 1 (and Furuya)

IMO, check Sekirei or Kurozuka for that.

[KNIGHTMAREGUNDAM]

I was convinced in Regene was a girl, in fact part of me still thinks that. Is that weird.

[Terrestrial Dream]

So how did Ribbons knew about Tieria's feeling about Lockon? Is it because they could communicate through each other with their thoughts?
Also if Tieria's va did the voice of Tieria in disguise then he did an amazing job I couldn't tell it was the same va.
Anyhow this episode it was a strange one, I enjoyed it quite a bit nice character interaction between the CB, and the return of PATRICK! or now the Patrick the Immortal whatever his nickname was. But Tieria in disguise and dancing with Ribbons did not felt wrong, that is what is so strange to me. In the end enjoyable episode and next episode it will be interesting to see Tieria's reaction seeing Prince Ali again .

[KNIGHTMAREGUNDAM]

The Immortal Cockroach is a good nickname for Patrick. He may not be a bad guy but he is damn annoying.

[sgogeta4]

So the whole plan was to get people to emigrate to space... Ribbons wants to accomplish that by destroying the Earth and forcing people out... I guess that kinda explains the last scene in the ED where there is a massive hole in the clouds...

*grins* What's he done wrong? Sure, he's a bit exuberant, and he may not be the best pilot, but he's harmless enough.

He gets so little screentime that you even will not notice him if you so much don't like him.

[ThoHell]

Interesting episode. Tieria in my eyes is now a female, no matter what!

Never really like the Wang character or her role, hate characters like that. Kill them all please!

Damn cliff hanger ending as always, this is going to be another one hell of a dragging week! Finally we get to see the insanely skilled nut case back in action, but I got to admit his appearance (mainly everything about him) is just random, he's like a one main wrecking crew who seems to have enough skills to take on everyone as once. Mr Bushido is good, but this guy is whew.... Setsuna just seems to attract/make enemies with a lot of highly skilled people (mainly the best).

Patrick...lol...weirdo as always.

Hope Marie will start playing a bigger role and not tossed aside now as a background character after how much her character has been present throughout S1 and S2.

time for the Saji arc to starts soon huh?

Think about it: Graham and Ali have always had his number in S1 but he got out only by virtue of having a better machine. Now, it's once again the exact same case. He easily has the best machine in the entire series, and yet continues to lose to inferior machinery because he's a garbage pilot.

The best machine in the series, that isn't even fully complete yet, thus is severely hampered in battle.

Do you seriously just purposely ignore thing's they very clearly say and stress in the show?

[Rising Dragon]

Just ignore him. He's never really contributed to any Gundam 00 thread, he just posts constant complaints.
