I'm playing the game right now, and I have to say the dub isn't bad at all. Great game, and I'm glad to see this get this animated.

Well I knew people were going to say this and I shouldn't be surprised since it seems like most don't give a damn nowadays about who voices english dubs. Anyways many of the voice actors in the Valkyria Chronicles dub have done the dubs for quite a few big roles.

Steve Blum - Spike - Cowboy Bebop
Todoh - Code Geass
Zabuza and Orochimaru - Naruto
Mugen - Samurai Champloo

Kate Higgins - C.C. - Code Geass
Saber - Fate/stay night
Sakura - Naruto

Laura Bailey - Lust - Full Metal Alchemist
Young Trunks - DBZ
Tohru - Fruits Basket

April Stewart - Liane Cartman, Sharon Marsh, Shelly Marsh, Mrs. McCormick,
The Mayor, Principal Victoria, and Wendy - South Park

Basically there are plenty of good voice actors in the english cast, I think, to make a good dub.

How could I forget Dave?! Voice of Kakashi from Naruto and Solomon from Blood+. My favorite role of his though is Jiro from Kikaider.

I was shocked when I found out April Stewart did the voice for her in the dub. I mean now everytime I watch SOuth Park I'm going to be listening for that voice of Selveria.

This is by no means saying that the English cast is bad, but given the small pool of talents, it's no surprise.

Anyone had an entire list of VA from the End Credits of the English release to go aganist the Japanese seiyuus to see the difference in number for the eastern and western cast ?

Entire list, as in who also did the voice of minor characters. Like even for those recruitable troopers.

No need to. A search of the Japanese Wiki for the game reveals the follows :-
Spoiler for Japanese Cast Credits:

A total of 50 names. Seems that they almost had an unique voice for each of the characters.

As expected. The English VA talent pool is indeed small.

But an interesting observation is that they have Solid Snake on the Japanese Cast whereas Raiden is present in the English cast.

Perhaps that he didn't note that Alicia is Yoko & Shigeru combined, Lelouch gets to lead an imperial army and Milly finally gets to romance him somewhat. Also Klan Klan gets to sing.

There's so much awesome going on in the Japanese cast if you look closer.

If this turns out to be a direct adaptation of the game I wonder if they'll also animate both DLC content episodes. Seems that both have new stories one letting you see from the enemies perspective and the other DLC episode being about edie Nelson.
