Yuzuriha Voice Comparison (Ayumi Fujimura vs Hitomi Nabatame) | Under Night In-Birth II [SYS:Celes]

I never noticed how the bells on Ayame's pommel actually rings every time it's sheathed. This one's a special comparison as Yuzu is the only character in the cast who had her previous voice actress retire, necessitating a new voice actress to fill in. So in this occasion it's more about mimicry than voice direction. Hitomi Nabatame's more notable roles include Nanao from Bleach, Arcueid from the Tsukihime anime that doesn't exist, Kazusa from White Album 2, and Suou from School Rumble. If it wasn't obvious enough I wouldn't necessarily equate these voices to Ayumi Fujimura's incredibly lively performance as Yuzu. The latter's notable roles would be Misaki from Maid-Sama, Ibuki from SFV, and Nine from Blazblue. Personally I think the new performance is fine during speech and regular dialogue but there is absolutely something missing from her battle lines. Somehow the new voice fails to hit the lows AND the high tones that Yuzu once had. It's a shame but what can you do. The lines for her jC are completely different and I think it's a shame they didn't bother trying to redo those lines in particular. I'm not sure how many people know but Yuzu has a hilarious set of voice-lines for when she gets hit so I decided to include those because fighting Yuzu back with her old voice, whether it was you or her getting hit, was entertaining, now it honestly just irritates me with the current voice. #uni #unib #uniel #unist #uniclr #undernightinbirth #uni2 #unisc #undernightinbirthii #undernightinbirth2 #sysceles #yuzu #yuzuriha #ayumifujimura #fujimuraayumi #hitominabatame #nabatamehitomi
