Spoiler for Manga spoilers:

Apparently Greedling appears as a cameo in the game, and his lines are all voiced by Nakamura. Since the games published by Square Enix are created in collaboration with Bones, like the games for the original series were, I think this is a pretty good indication that the direction the anime staff will take with Greedling is indeed to have his voice change to Nakamura's after the transformation.

It was as I said. Bido recognizes Greedling's voice itself, not just the way he talks. I knew this would happen.

And now I'm even more disappointed that Junichi Suwabe didn't get to reprise his role as Greed, cause it would've been awesome to hear him as Greedling.

I grinned when I heard Unsho's voice as Van Hohenheim.

It's Jet Black himself. Seriously, he's made for the role.

And let's not forget that he also played as Sergei Sminorv (Papa Bear) in Gundam 00!

He's one of the seiyus in a PSP game I play, Oretachi No Survival Game Portable.

And from Initial D too, but I never watched it. :P

That was the first role I heard Suwabe Junichi in and I fell in love instantly though it took me a few years to realize who it was. I share your disappointment.

But can I say props for Koyasu Takehito as Scar's brother!! Sucks his part isnt bigger, such a wonderful voice.

Indeed it's a shame his role wasn't big, though it's always a pleasure to hear one of my favorite voices.

[yezhanquan]

@WhiteManjuBun: It's Suwabe Junichi.

[Yu Ominae]

I'm sure Aaron is Yao...

Ah mistype, I knew that

Been rewatching the Lust vs. Roy fight. I could swear that Inoue-san is using her screams as Miria in Claymore. Claymore fans should know the arc where she screams a lot.

Can't wait to find out who'll be voicing Olivier. Should be announced sometime soon, right?

Yeah! I was gonna mention that here... drat.

I always imagined her voice to be someone manly... Paku Romi or Izumi-style. Don't know any names, though. Any thoughts?

I actually thought it would have been announced by now. Pretty surprised that it hasn't.

We've already speculated quite a bit about possible VAs for her a few pages back in this topic.

My guesses were Akeno Watanabe and Atsuko Tanaka.

Romi Paku or Minami Takayama would have been good choices too, but they're already voicing Ed and Envy respectively.

[yezhanquan]

Watanabe Akeno: Have my doubts. Don't really think her Rose voice suits Olivier.

Tanaka Atsuko: Military women are her pigeon hole. We'll see.

[Vicious108]

For Watanabe I was thinking more her Villeta voice. It's a considerably rough voice for a woman, and thus it'd fit Olivier.

And Atsuko Tanaka, as you said, is at her best with military women, so she'd really be perfect. Her voice just has this natural authority to it.

[yezhanquan]

Her Villeta voice is her Rose (SFIV) voice. After hearing "Illusion Spark!" in SFIV one too many times, I have images of Code Geass floating in my head.
