This board is for general discussion of Lunar. Especially things such as Lunar merchandise, general discussions about the story that span more than one game, etc.
Who was everyones favroite Lunar/Lunar 2 voice actor and why? Personally I liked John Truitt (Ghaleon). I mean, I couldent see Ghaleon with any other voice. besides, ever hear his blooper clips??

Jenny Stigle (Luna's Singing Voice). I don't know if I can choose her as my fav but if I can, she's definately it. I still listen to Wind Nocturne all the time.
Other than that, I'm not sure if I have a favorite. John Truitt... perhaps.

To tell you the truth, I haven't actually heard any of the Japanese voices in Lunar, but I'm an anime fan so I regonize a lot of the actors. And I know that Megumi is very good (and it just so happens that she was the voice actor for an anime character that is very similar to Lemina, so I don't doubt that she did a good job).
Inoue Kikuko sung beautifully in LTSS. No matter which version you play, you hear her singing. Hikami Kyouko, who took over the role of Luna (and again her singing is in the English version) in remake did a good job, but she's not in the same league as Kikuko.
Lunar 2's cast was full of big name seiyuu, but many of them were underused. If you've got Hisakawa Aya (Jean), Okiayu Ryuuoutarou (Ronfar) and Hayashibara Megumi (Lemina), USE THEM. At least there's the Lunatic Parade.
On the other hand, Midorkawa Hikaru (Hiro) is awesome, but I prefer him in moodier roles, and I've never been a Yokoyama Chisa (Lucia) fan.
American fans got a real treat with Truitt for Ghaleon, but TSS and EB Ghaleon's voice, Naya Rokurou, is absolutely fantastic. It's a different kind of sneering, but I like his ghostly voice a whole lot. Seki Tomokazu is a riot, as usual, as Killy/Kyle in SSS, and the American Ronfar was top-notch.

You mean Lina Inverse from "The Slayers" right?
and im interested in hearing the japanese voice actors too, I know the main site has a vid from TSSC that has the japanese ghaleon and luna (if i remember right.)
