I think he's letting absolute hatred for a person seep into his judgment for talent. She's good at acting, but goddamn, she's fucking crazy and evil. Does she even get new roles anymore? The last "new"-ish thing I've heard her in was one of the PSO2NGS operator girls (who barely has any lines at all).
Never played any BlazBlue game, really. That's because I'm terrible at fighting games, and have been for over 30 years.
And besides, how much of this is due to the director?
There used to be a dub director named Steven Foster who would get awful performances out of his actors, because he simply did not care about his job, at all--and that made the actors stop trying, too. He's been blacklisted from the business for this reason...yet people will still sing his praises, because he was the guy who directed the dub of Ghost Stories.
If you want to see how bad a Steven Foster dub can really get, check out Penguindrum, Medaka Box, and Guin Saga.
If you want a GREAT dub director, you go to one man: Alex von David. He did Madoka Magica and Kill la Kill, among many others. John Swasey is also a very good choice.
How is Cristina Valenzuela amateur hour? She sounds great to me, especially in Vivy.

Agree to disagree. For the love of God, do not make me defend her.
Crazy and evil? How so?
And yes, she does. In fact, she's the director for Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp.
