Well, Naoto just sounds ... really weird in battle. Looking at the GameFAQs forums, I know I'm not the only one that thinks that.
Hahahaha, yeah, looking at Naoto and the passing reference they made to Kuzunohoa totally makes me wanna pick up Devil Summoner after I finish P4. I also realllllyyyy wanna make Raidou's cape/cloak for one of my dolls. *_*
Yeah, Wendee's been around for a long time, and I generally like her work.
Yeah, I kinda went O.o when I read the wiki entry about how the character is portrayed in the manga. Definitely not what I envisioned--he seems a bit more goofy and fun-loving, but maybe that's just the responses I went with in the game.
Well, they didn't distort Johnny's voice in P4, so it's REALLY FRICKIN' AMAZING. I mean... guh.... *gets gooey thinking about it*
Well, I only saw that one ep, but it just... doesn't fit my image of how Ichigo would sound. I admittedly really wanted to hear Ishida, but he wasn't in that ep... (I also left off where you left off in the manga... I just got a bit disgusted with the turn of events.)
I'm not saying he's a bad VA! Sure, Johnny's not one of my favorites and that's really due to his limited range, but it's like... you know. The situation where a voice just totally doesn't come off sounding the way you first thought it'd be.
Yuri from Vesperia actually took me by surprise first too! He's really deep sounding--his VA is Kanji's, although Troy Baker uses a different voice for Kanji (although you can hear Yuri in there... I suspect Yuri's voice is Troy's normal voice). But after a while, the voice Troy uses for Yuri totally fits and I vastly prefer it to the Japanese.
So it's probably more of the shock of "this doesn't fit my image of Ichigo." I'm sure if I watched more of Bleach, it'd probably work out for me.

... not that I would.
