Sad, angry, happy, excited, solemn, getting punched in the face, etc.: In every single scenen, there's no change in her emotions, or rather there's no emotion at all.Р”Р„s the seasons advanced, the translating studios hired different casts to replace existing ones, trying to make them 'correct.' However, the more they replaced, the worse the voice acting got. Finally, while Jupiter's voice matches her looks, it's the most emotionless voice you can hear on the market. Artemis gets the voice of a 50-year-old who should be announcing sports, even though his human form puts him in the 20-somethings. Serena, a high school girl, gets the voice of a middle-aged hag, the same as Luna, whose human form is supposed to be very young as well. On top of that, a lot of the humor and jokes are either lost, changed (dumbed-down), or omitted. While the premise of the story is still the same, the complexities and genius of the story are lost in translation. The rewriting was truly the hammering of the nail on the coffin. Most of the voices don't match the face anymore, and a lot of dialog has been rewritten. Next, you now have poorly-timed voice acting (seems to be a trend again) where it's obviously off the mark (whereas the original's dubbing was spot-on to the point where you couldn't tell it was animated for a different language). To start off, there were only three of the original voice actors in the entire series, two of which were one-episode characters. The result is not only a disaster, but an insult to the viewers, especially anyone who ever watched the original release. They felt that some viewers were too dumb to understand the story since it was originally translated almost word-for-word.They thought it needed to be a bit more family-friendly (dialogue-wise).For the fans, they completely ruined Reno and Rude. And let's not get into detail on how racist they were when they voiced Barret. Now we all know it was animated for Japanese, but when you screw up a laugh's timing, there's something wrong. The worst part is I don't think the American producers even bothered to do a retake on anything and just shotgunned through to get it onto the shelves. On top of that, the timing is sometimes off as the actors didn't seem to have paid attention when they were doing this. While the choice for Sephiroth was good in terms of the sound of his voice, even that didn't compensate for his horrible inability to match his voice with the situation. Advent Children has everything we have come to expect: The sequel to the best Final Fantasy game ever created and with the most realistic CG ever seen, even to this day. Without a doubt, this is the greatest CG film in history, Japanese or otherwise, with textures and animation well beyond its years.
