(This is a reposting of my translation of the small blurbs of voice actor comments in the Tales of Rebirth V Jump Books Guide. It was originally posted here: https://not-sophie.dreamwidth.org/14984.html)
Veigue Lungberg (comments by Nobuyuki Hiyama)
Since Veigue is a very taciturn character, I acted each of his lines with a huge focus on their meaning, and aimed to portray a kind of cold intensity. As the story progresses, he opens up his heart to the party, and the passion at the bottom of his heart comes to the surface. I hope you look forward to that change.
Claire Bennett (comments by Mio Yasuda)
Claire appears to be a docile character, but she’s not simply a damsel who gets protected all the time. She’s a girl who has a lot of inner strength. While the fate that waits her is a difficult one, I hope you’ll see how she persists without ever losing hop as you play through the game.
Mao (comments by Akeno Watanabe)
While acting, I portrayed him as a straightforward type of person, whose feelings gradually get more intense. While he travels with the party, Mao learns about various things, and feels various things. From these experiences, he grows as an individual human. I hope you’ll laugh with him and cry with him as you enjoy the journey of TOR!
Eugene Gallardo (comments by Ushou Ishizuka)
At first glance, Eugene may appear stern and intimidating, but he has a lot of kind and naive parts to his personality. He’s smart and a good guy. And since he has a background as a soldier, he’s extraordinarily strong when it comes to martial arts. On top of that, he has cool-headed decision making skills that make him act as a guide figure. He really is a dependable guy!
Annie Barrs (comments by Akiko Yajima)
Annie is a young, innocent character who tries to be as strong as she can. But it’s precisely because she is young that there are things she isn’t honest with herself about. She was a fun and fascinating role. As you make new discoveries while playing through the game’s story, try to accept them as openly as you can.
Tytree Crowe (comments by Kappei Yamaguchi)
Tytree was a fun rol to play. He acts as a moodmaker in TOR‘s party. I aimed to act in a really expressive way, so I’ll be really happy if everyone who plays the game can enjoy that aspect of it!
Hilda Rhambling (comments by Sayaka Ohara)
She’s a cold beauty with concealed passions and deep sadness. She’s not a talkative character, but acting out her lines was exciting. “… I’ll hit you.” That one short line in the middle of serious story developments made me want to laugh more than anything else. I hope you’ll keep an ear out for it.
Agarte Lindblum (comments by Emi Shinohara)
The beautiful, lonely, and determined Agarte… As much as I thought about how to act as this fascinating woman, I actually ended up having to act as… (you’ll see when you actually play the game) in a lot of scenes… But I was so totally fortunate to be able to play the role of this lovely woman.
