barrett yelling into his microphone and blowing out my eardrums when vincent reveals himself is such a barrett thing to do lmao
yuffie screaming in the background too lmao
Don King Jr
He so was happy. Him being overjoyed just made my day or night i guess i dont know how time works
I want to say that as soon as I heard Cody's Cloud voice in FF7 Remake... I'm like, yeah, this is Cloud Strife. Perfection.
Yeah exactly how id thought he would sound when playing the OG
he has an amazing texture of voice. it's the voice I imagined in my head but couldn't actually hear or "see"@@GunnzaEIR
Yeah, no offense to Steve Burton, but Cody nails it.
You mean grunting for no reason and delivering terrible dialog? I realize the dialog isn't his choice, I just wish it wasn't so corny. It breaks the immersion.
I perfer Burtons more mature tone. Codys voice sounds too soft to me. He doesnt come across as tough
While Tifa's original VA will always have a special place in my heart, I have to admit that Britt's voice fits Tifa more and she has actually become my favorite VA for Tifa.
Who was the original VA
@@PropagandaMinisternot sure but if you google advent children pretty sure the OP was talking about that version.
Same as Briana
Can't see Aerith without seeing her lol
@@PropagandaMinister . Rachel Leigh
Same!
Cody understands Cloud's personality so well! I love him as Cloud Strife!
I miss the old cloud but this one has proved himself worthy can’t wait to watch advent children right before I play this game
Cloud is not an easy character to bring to life. I think it's easy to make him too moody and flat. Cody doesn't just nail it, he delivered my favorite vocal performance in the first game.
His insecurity playing the role in the first game (disc), to becoming more confident in himself for the second is so par for the course for Cloud. He's an absolutely fantastic pick. I think this being his first real voice acting role was super appropriate and really added to his performance as Cloud.
Naw Steve Burton is the Goat Cloud Strife
@@NerdGeekTalknah remake is better
Suzie yeung as yuffie is absolutely asking, she has the spirit and youthfulness we need 😭
She is so perfect, she’s my favourite out of the cast 🥺
Totallt agree!
She looks like someone hit her in the face with a 2x4 😂
I love Suzie’s personality! It’s so funny and sweet.❤
asking what
Barrett’s VA seems like such a down to earth and fun guy. His advice for aspiring voice actors was incredibly earnest.
he is! i met him at kupocon about a month before remakes release and he was so lovely and made time to talk to absolutely everyone!
@@duckydae i remember meeting him at kupocon a few years ago and it was the same! he took so much time to talk to every fan and appreciate everyone
They all do such an amazing job in their roles. It's crazy that this was Cody's first ever voice acting role because he truly did a great job. The casting chose the actors perfectly for these games.
He was an actor in a popular show before I forgot the name of it though but he really improved for Rebirth
@@youhaveayds8975 Is it possible either Teen Wolf or All American you're referring to?
pretty little liars, teen wolf and all american @@youhaveayds8975
I would only disagree with Zack's new VA. Caleb is trying and making improvements, but... he's still got a long ways to go. Everyone else is fantastic.
Cloud's VA actually sounds like Cloud without even trying 😂
And is as handsome as cloud
His hat is hiding his Chocobo hairline lol
Fr, his voice is beautiful.
Just like the previous VA of cloud try to search the interview of voice actors of Dissidia Final Fantasy
Right what a phony, not even acting lol
Best voice cast ever assembled in a single game. The bar for fans was SO high. Everyone had imagined voices stowed away in their heads for 22+ years, and somehow this cast has satisfied just about everyone. I had always thought in decades past that it would be impossible to pull it off. But they did it.
They are all wearing their characters colours 😊
Except Red XIII's VA though...😟
Except for red. Sephy will take him out
@@EvelynL.1112 Hamaguchi stole his outfit 🤣
Matt Mercer is an excellent choice for Vincent in Rebirth! The cast is incredible!!
It was hard to imagine who would replace Steve Blum, but hearing it in game fits.
That banter between Yuffie and Vincent on the panel was brilliant. Amazing voice actors, this was a very entertaining panel. I cannot wait for Rebirth!
Tifa's VA and Cody don't even really have to act 😂 they just sound exactly like their characters.
You know what i noticed, they are all dressed similarly to their characters.
Specifically Matt, Cody and Brit.
Brit is dressed like Tifa.
Matt is dressed in red like Vincent!!
So cool, what a great detail and panel!!
Yuffie’s VA is also wearing the same colors as yuffie.
They sure didn't go wrong with these guys. The cast is literally perfect.
The cast and voice directors have done such a fantastic job with the Remake series. There are so many ways this could have gone wrong and everybody is just knocking it out of the park. Looking forward to more in part 3.
Man tifas VA literally just is tifa. Would love to see her cosplay as tifa 😂
She already kinda is. A white top, a black skirt, the sheer socks. Heck even her earrings look like the ones Tifa has in-game
@@dr.edwardrichtofen365 Everyone was cosplaying as their characters in the most casual way possible. I love it.😂
Tifa's voice actress is just so sweet and kinda looks like Tifa as well.
She was in Netflix show Glow if you want to see her in something else.
I swear this is an all-star cast all of them portray their characters so well
They all do a great job! The only one I recognize is Matt though.
EDIT: Ok, after looking the VA for Red XIII has done a ton, he's just not as famous as Matt.
@@urmanascreweda lot of them were actual TV actors not VA
Britt's voice is so soothing. Perfect fit for Tifa
It's really inspiring to hear their stories of how they all got into voice acting, especially Suzie Yeung's.
This was great! What amazing casting for this game's english cast. Everyone really took the time to fully embody and understand the dynamics of their characters. So stoked for Feb!
Where is awrith Va
I'm in love with Tifa's Voice. 😍
we all are lol. this time, im ok with simpin
She's drop dead gorgeous. The Japanese VA for Tifa is on the same level.
@@fred6907She's beautiful, and her voice sounds sweet, warm and soothing. It fits the character so well.
Love Bentley’s voice! He nailed Barret so much
Cody is the perfect voice for cloud, a little emo but not too much, confidence but vulnerable
Not only are they so well cast, they're all doing such a great job. I love these characters and they're really bringing them to life in a way that just feels right. Kudos to everyone involved with the voicing!
Got to say playing FF 7 back in the day anytime I read Clouds lines always had a voice in my head reading those lines and Cody is EXTREMELY close to what I imagined in my head
Having played the game and gotten to the part Cody Christian was talking about at 27:10, I'm so glad to hear what he had to say about it, because when I got to that part, I was wondering "what was going through Cody Christian's head when he was recording for this part?" It's... definitely a surreal moment...
🥹 I don't remember the part can you tell me? 😅😢❤
@@mioki8909same
@@mioki8909 It's the mission in Under Junon with the kids close to the shore!
I finished that portion a few weeks ago and it makes me want to see the BTS footage of them in the booth
Ribbit.
I just really hope in 3rd game all cast including Sephiroth, Aeirth, Cait Sith and Cid VA they have fun each other in the future of interview.
You can hear the character in every VA's natural voice, except Max. He sounds nothing like the voice he conjures for Red.
The cast for these games is just perfect, theyve all done incredible work bringing these characters to life.
This comment didn’t age well
@@Joespart9010😂😂😂
HEHE
My dad got a ps5 for christmas and im currently playing the remake for the first time 😊❤ It has been such a fun experience, cant wait for the sequel. The cast did a great job
How far are you into Rebirth?
@@RequiemOvoid1314 gotta be honest, i haven’t finished remake yet 😅 Im like 92% done with the game but i got busy with other stuff.
I already bought rebirth though, I was happy to get the deluxe version; I think i will start playing it soon
@@mely1022 yeah I get it. I got a PS5 during the beginning of the year and spent 2 whole weeks playing Remake until I beat it 100%. I’m about 52% through Rebirth now but I’ve had it on hold due to other things
@@mely1022you loving it so far
this cast was so carefully chosen that they literally look like their characters....all of them
Bentley did such a great job with Barret.
Had a wonderful chance to meet Suzie Young back in 2021 at Otakon. Seeing this video has me more hype for Part 2
Suzie Naruto ran onstage 😊 They couldn't have cast Yuffie any more perfectly.
She's so precious 😭❤️
well Yuffie is a Ninja,so yea pretty relatable
It’s too perfect
Haha she's amazing
@@ProthPhenom ye
Cody Christian as Cloud: "Never in doubt!" 🙌
Tifas voice is unique and beautiful
Cody‘s youthful, boyish but raspy, hurt voice conveys Clouds state of mind perfectly. Especially this calm, soft almost talking to oneself kind of speaking
I’m sad that Briana wasn’t there. I've watched her on TH-cam a bunch of times and she seems just as pure and innocent as Aerith herself.
Aerith is neither pure nor innocent. 😂
Aerith looks pure and innocent and in a way she’s the white mage. But she’s also a snarky little smartass and we all love her for it ❤
Aerith isn’t pure and innocent lol, but Briana definitely strikes me as more pure.
@@Phantasiafan87What game have you guys been playing? Aerith is pure and innocent as it gets. Just because she makes the odd joke and knows what’s going on doesn’t change that lol.
when you only know aerith from crisis core (disgraced game btw)
This cast goat’d. It’s too bad Brianna couldn’t make it.
They want no leakage going on 😅
I like how Britt is kind of dressed like Tifa
All but Max Middleman are dressed as their character lol
Max should have worn all red. @@GCharlesE
@@GCharlesEI thought the actor that played him was literally a magical talking dog. I'm disappointed
@@huey515 🤣🤣🤣 gotta temper those expectations a little 😂🎄
This is my second time watching this, after 2 months. It's hilarious and heartwarming. Their stories and all!
Thing is with cody is is everyone shuts up just to listen to him talk. Great job man
Meeting Cody is now on my budget list.
Having met him at this con, I can tell you it's worth it
make sure you still have room for groceries
budget?
@@sam_making_gamesprobably meant bucket. Or the evil autocorrect was haunting their phone
Same. He sounds like a chill dude.😎
Tifa and Cloud are the only ones where their normal voice sounds like their character. No acting required.
OMG Yuffie's VA voices Eula from Genshin Impact I had no idea.
And Max Mittleman voices Arataki Itto.
And Fuuka from Persona 3 Reload now
honestly just like matt mercer I just want the rest of the cast asking questions about to the ff7 devs
I probably put 500+ hours into the OG FFVII as a teen and when I read those text boxes with character dialogue in my head each character had their own voice...
These actors have absolutely captured all of those voices, and that is testament not only to the writing of the original game which implied tone and mood through small blue boxes and clunky animations on chibi characters, but the skill of these actors for perfectly becoming those voices without ever consulting with a gamer about "how the characters should sound".
Right?! It’s funny to read everyone’s experience is about the same with voices.., except for cait. I love it, but that’s not what I expected.
I remember I made my group of friends play through it with me when I was a teen and I did most of the voices. I can attest that seohirorh was exactly what we thought he sounded like. They did an amazing job selecting va
This was a fantastic interview! I always thought about going into voice acting. : )
That was the fastest hour of my life, what a great panel.
I love how they dressed up in their character’s colors except for Max 😂 But even Mat dressed in Vincent’s black and red colors
Taking Cody's answer around the 28 min mark as confirmation the Mog dating sim game is back and sounds hilarious.
Nope. Gotta be the frog mission.
"Ribbit. Rrrribbit."
@DerrickUltima the moogle scene is amazing.
Cody saying kupopo was amazing lol
I love their enthusiasm towards each other. Game is amazing, cast is absolutely amazing and I think they've all done the game more than justice. Honestly I prefer them over the old cast 🤷♂️
"For those of you that don't know what a Walkman is, it was a CD player..." makes me feel old since I had the OG tape player.
So, the only ones missing here are Aerith's, Cid's and Cait Sith's VAs. I can't wait for when all of them will be together in one panel eventually. For now, this is still pretty rad.
Also, Matt Mercer is stacking legendary role after role. Leon S. Kennedy (Resident Evil), Levi (AoT), Law (One Piece), Jotaro (Jojo), Yusuke (Persona 5), Goro Majima (Yakuza) and, now, Vincent Valentine. What an absolutely ridiculous career. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy ❤.
Don't forget Ganondorf!
Seeing Tifa's VA for Rebirth makes me love Tifa even more. Never thought that was possible.
Edit = BTW , thankyou to all the voice actors for putting so much heart into their characters. Cheers everyone
Suzie's energy is the perfect Yuffie
they just didnt lend their voices, they added life to them, and their personalities in the characters they portray
I wonder if some fans in Japan prefer the American actors. There are some things that sound better in Japanese but things like FF7 and dragon ball, I prefer English
This was cool and inspiring to watch!!!!
Oh blooper reel. Need to see this
They’re all amazing at their characters
I cant believe i would adore Matt Mercer even more after this panel
The VA for this series are all awesome ❤
that voice for tifa totally matches the girls looks... perfect
They really nailed the voice cast.
Suzie has been in like everything I've seen or played this year absolutely love her
I don't know why but this makes me want to cry tears of happiness
everyone in this cast is so talented and beautiful
They killed it in REBIRTH the game is fantastic and definitely worth playing.
Man cody really does get cloud. Cloud's trying to play a role. The stoic soldier and he's always trying to act like he thinks a badass soldier should. But really he is a caring vulnerable brave guy, and you really see his inner child poke through.
He's a character that was forced to grow up so fast and yet as you go through the game you slowly start to see the real cloud and his much more like an innocent boy like he was in his childhood. And the hard cold hearted soldier facarde starts to melt away. And he becomes a true leader.
Barrett looks and sounds like barrett, thats barrett
Every VA in this game is PERFECT. The characters incarnate.
27:50 i think now that i played a game, he's talking about the ribbit frog scene! lol
Love this cast!!!
Hyped does not begin to describe how I feel for this game’s release.
Would love to see the bloopers reels.
Same
27:27 he's talking about the frog mission isnt he lol
I could be the kupo last mission too 🤷🏻
Man, I forgot that Rebirth is probably the first time most of the cast are meeting because Remake came out during the pandemic
Cody as cloud couldn’t be more perfect, just the right amount of emo
I need a PS5 and I need it right MEOW! I was fine missing out on the launch of MK1, Gotham Knights, and even Spider-Man 2, but I really want to experience Rebirth with everyone on launch!
Haha, same.
Really need PS5 for FF7 and MH Wild
10:30 When Vincent was revealed for Rebirth, I had a feeling that was Matt’s voice I heard, and in the end, I was right, and I started going FERAL!😂
Tifa's voice is absolutely fantastic and beautiful 😍😍😍😍
They’re so excellent in their parts. Barrett’s voice actor was just an absolute SLAM DUNK. Barrett wasn’t my favorite in the og, but in remake and rebirth there has yet to be a single line of his I haven’t liked. Perfect attitude and voice sync work
Wow this was incredible !
They all match their characters personalities extremely well. Especially barrett and yuffie
This just reminded me that years ago my high school girlfriend had an audition to voice Rikku in FFX.
Matthew Mercer as Vincent V. Following several unique roles, especially Leon and MK Copper.
I've been looking for this ❤ best va cast ever in my opinion
Man I love Barrett, such energy 😄
Me falling inlove with Cody's voice. I love Cloud Strife ❤
Tifa’s VA did a very on Tifa-Brand thing by sharing the baby blanket fact.
I thought the same 😂
They casted everyone so well!
It’s cool how they wore the colors of their character. 🔥
I cannot wait to get to Rebirth, but I am finishing remake first. And I cannot believe I recognized the voice actress for Aerith before she even came up!!
I love the cute ninja run by yuffie's VA
I love these people and the fantastic job they have done bringing my hero's to life 👌
Love Matthew Mercer ❤
Amazing panel!!
Suzie made me fall in love with yuffie because of that DLC, rooting for her in rebirth 🔥🔥
I'm confused about Suzie's VA story, because I think it gives the impression that she only started voice acting in 2020. I thought she had been voice acting since 2018
