To those that don't know, Riki in the VN sounds like one of those kids you find in Xbox Live and you have simply no idea if it's a boy or a girl :ProfessorOak:
And there's no way that she even sounds "boyish" in the visual novel, it sounds like a girl no matter how you look at it. This voice is a bit of an improvement. Then again it all is subjective. Arty

Before you ask, I have played the VN. I have finished two full routes, and I never turn off the battle or baseball practice minigames, so I've heard Tomoe Tamiyasu's rendition of his voice countless times. You yourself said in your first statement that upon hearing his voice, it is difficult to determine if the speaker was a boy or a girl, so that contradicts with your second statement that he sounds exclusively like a girl.

Taking your own experience is nothing close of a solid evidence for negative statement that general. I can tell you that Asian young'uns can look deceivingly younger than they actually are, which include of course the voice. And no, not all boys have their voice break at a set period. I for one got mine around 17, and I sometimes got mistaken as a girl through the phone prior that point...

I'm the most worried about Sasami's anime VA. Her voice in the VN was very distinct from Rin's, despite them sharing the same VA. I can't see why they would change it, and it would even mean one less person to pay if they didn't.

Because videogame acting is generally done individually, and anime acting is generally done as a group. It's a lot more tricky to act as a group when the same person is playing two characters; granted, it has been done in a few cases, but it's rather unusual.

I'm most worried about Mio's voice personally. While the other changes were informed decisions, Mio's change of VA was a last minute change, so I worry that the replacement just won't do it for me. Only time will tell though.

Who knows, we might like Mio's new voice rather than the original one |

Well, generally speaking, I've noticed a lot of people have a bias towards the voice they first heard, and that makes sense because your brain associates that voice with the character. This is why, for example, some people have a hard time watching dubbed anime, because their brain can't reconcile the character they see with the voice they hear. So unless there's a really clear and obvious difference between one and the other (which I sort of doubt), it wouldn't surprise me if people are mostly biased towards whatever one they hear first. Other than that, all you can do is try to keep an open mind.

From Clannad to LB anime, the gap is 5 year which I think is very long. If Kyoani wanna do it, there are a lot of chances that they can. but they just go for K-ON SS2, Haruhi, Nichijou and Hyouka instead. I don't care anymore whether Kyoani in the future might remake LB or not since they have made me wait for a very long time. If somehow J.C. can adapt LB anime as good as what Kyoani can do with Kanon or Clannad, why bother with Kyoani anyway? And at this moment, there is nothing said that it might or might not have an ex-routes P.S. personally, rather than LB remake, I seriously want to see Rewrite adapted into anime. So I hope when LB is end, Rewrite might be the next one soon. |
