Idea stolen, yes I know...but I think XIII deserves some lovin to
Any ideas or suggestions on who'd do Lightning's voice? or any of th other character's voices?
Well seeing as she's most likely in her early to mid 20's and "has muscular legs and doesn't cry" she'd probably have somewhat of that masculine woman voice, if you understand what I'm saying
As for the red headed gal, she's I'm thinking, mid teens so something KINDA like Yuna's maybe...
and the blonde guy he's probably like 30 so something like Michael Madson? Perhaps?
:cookie:
I'm thinking she'll have a more calm, collected and mature voice like Mokoto Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell (not the first movie, but SAC). Not necessarily that voice actor, however, but someone like her; since they have similar personality traits/backgrounds.

I think Mr. 33cm will sound like Christian Bale. :aldo:
Steve Burton looks like Christian Bale and therefore I thought he would be a good voice actor for Cloud, but I was disappointed, so no Christian Bale. That logic doesn't make sense. :(
No, he'd have to sound a bit younger maybe...Christian Bale's voice is too suave and too deep.

I could play his voice. If he spoke like a human and not in constant shouts or erratic emotion changes.

Heh, I think you are still unemployed then. :cookie:
And I think Bale would make a fine 33cm. D8

I don't think 33cm would cry...
So who do you think should do his voice then?

Mr. T or the guy from "Reading Rainbow"

Lavar Burton? Is that who you were thinking of?
Lightning needs to have a great voice to match her personality. A voice like Rikku's or Aerith's is not going to work with Lightning. I will need to think of whose voice would work.

I'm thinking Lightning's voice will be like Ashe's only a bit warmer. Very feminine, but with a rough, scratchy quality.

None! I want her to be MUTE!
If she does have a voice, I want it to be quiet masquline. ^_^

Yum....:wub: I mean yes! >_<

haha yum, down girl
I think she (Lightning) will b e very quiet but I wouldn't want her to be mute...like almost mute but not mute
As for the red head bow wielder cutie, she's definitely in her teens (I hope) so something like Rikku except a little less high pitched.....Hmmm....

The "yum" is for Christian Bale's hotness in Howl's Moving Castle. :shifty: Okay, Howl himself is enough to make me weak, but that voice was hawwt... :whistle:

I havent seen that movie yet but I really want to, it's the only Myazaki movie I havent seen *tear*
But I can't really see anyone else who'd fit the voice except for...oh...hm...I dont know a professional voice actor like from XII, call me crazy
GrimReaperXIII
Jun 29 2008, 08:29 PM
XII did have really good quality actors, no matter what other people say.
Their voices/bodies may have been stoic, but nobody has over-the-top faciel expressions/body language like in the other FFs in real-life.
And no -breathing- into the mike. ....I hate it when Ashe sighs; it makes me want to pull my hair out. It's like nails on a chalkboard (for me).

Well, Debi Mae West (Meryl) isn't the most feminine voice out there. But sure, we need a real tomboy for her role.
But Mr. 33cm...it's GOTTA be good ole' Arnold! I'll be back!

Taylor Hannah for Lightning. From what I've seen Lightning seems like the Lia de Beaumont type from the anime Le chevalier D'eon.
I think Christopher Sabat would be a good choice for Mr. 33 cm. If anyone heard him as Kikuchiyo in Samurai 7.

The girl who did Re-l's (English) voice for Ergo Proxy; she would be awesome for Lightning.
I can't think of anybody else. I don't know many voice actors. I'd might be able to think of other voice actors if I knew the personalities of Mr. 33cm and Ponytails Girl.

It's Karen Thompson if I'm not mistaken, but that sounds a bit to young I think, Re-L is 19 and Lightning I'm sure is older, I get where youre coming from but I don't know, I don't think it's fit
And yeah I agree on the red head and the blonde guy as for their voices

Jennifer Hale is her name and she would be a good voice for Lightning. She also provided the voice of Naomi Hunter in the Metal Gear Solid series.

The woman who did the voice acting in silent hill 2 for Maria maybe, she was amazing.

lol. Well, if any thing like with the case of FFX and FFXII. Then we'd be receiving the usual anime voice actors. With possibility of;
Vic Mignogna (Junpei Iori of P3)
Kari Wahlgren (Ashe "Banalgan" Dalmasca of FFXII)
Michelle Ruff (Rita Mordio of ToV) etc...

Lol, edit: I suggested her without reading that she was already suggested. But yeah, I think Jennifer Hale would be good for Lightning. She's got an amazing range and a great voice to boot. She could pull it off.

Shannon Sossamon for Lightning!

^ Yeah, her voice might fit Lightning. Gotta remember voices sound different in games compared to real life for some reason.

That may or may not be because, they're, you know, acting.
Now, the fangirl in me says Mary Elizabeth McGlynn for Lightning. Because I'm a tool. And as stated, fangirl.

Jared Padalecki for 33cm or the Prince!

He WOULD be perfect for the Prince.
Onree cuz they're both prisseh leetl beetchez.

Either that or Blum would be perfect as well. Because he tends to change his pitch for the character's he voices. Like with Junpei (Digimon Frontier), Spike (C.B) etc...

I was thinking her too, but then I started to feel like, even though she's a great voice actress and is perfect for someone like the Major, it would be a little too mature sounding, too stern, too...proper, I guess? I don't know how to explain it.

I watched a movie called Aeon Flux yesterday (Well, half-watched) and the actor that plays who I assume is the main character has a deep voice that would suit Lightning very well.

do you mean charleize theron *pardon my misspelling*... the one who plays aeon
i could see that... but i don't think she'd do it...
IBeatSephiroth
Oct 12 2008, 03:19 AM
Yeah, that's who I mean. Her voice would suit Lightning's tone.
