I watched alice and marisa's easter egg hunt, and it made me realize that there's really not that much English voiced Touhou content. Are there any English voiced Touhou videos or such that are actually good, or any voices you like? Or any single voices that you thought fit a character well?

On a broader note, are you entirely opposed to non-Japanese voices voicing Touhous, or are you open to the idea? Both a dub, and something made with Western VAs in mind from the beginning.

I really cant think of anything but bump for interesting thread

There are some walfas videos with pretty decent voice acting though I'm not sure what the consensus on walfas as a whole is here.
>>
>>48644417
The focus is on VA, it being from walfas is irrelevant, so I'd say post it
>>
>>48644447
These are the two best examples (off the top of my head):

I really like kogasa's voice

>are you entirely opposed to non-Japanese voices voicing Touhous
Yes, and I think they shouldn't even try.
Although I might be biased because I dislike western women and I really dislike when western women try to sound like anime characters (game in this case).

I'm not against the idea, but what I've encountered has not left me optimistic. It's a song, so not really voice acting, but I came across https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKjJ5ord5K0 they other day and all I could think was that there was a lot of effort put into making a video for a song that was phoned in.

I remember one which suika had a funny british accent
>>
>>48644726
I remember seeing this video in my Youtube feed, hovering over the thumbnail and seeing KKHTA references which was a red flag already, but the animation seemed slick from the preview it gave me so I clicked to a random part only to hear about 5 seconds of that god-awful song and gave up on it once and for all. Truly a waste of potential.

While the quality is questionable, I applaud the autistic dedication. She has been doing this for 10 years and is still going.

There's that one audio series about Meiling btfo of Jack the Ripper which has some pretty good voices for the SDM ladies.
>>
>>48646217
I think her work is very hit or miss, but I also applaud her dedication. For the better ones I think her take on "Because Princess Inada Is Scolding Me" is pretty good

Yuyuko speaking French just works.

These are some good voices, hell even Reimu works (and it's clearly just a dude pitch shifting his voice. But then again so is the VUX and they sound good too)
>>
>>48642398
I liked the voices in this https://youtu.be/Q9Ikii3YYdM

I actually like french yuyuko. I don't know if I love or hate the french language though

Most of these are okay, maybe change Marisa's

There has been quite a few attempts at producing voiced content in English in the past few years. Here are some. I'm not into voiced content myself that much so I haven't watched them all. Your mileage may vary depending on your tastes:

Note that there's one VA who is particularly trending among (some will say "lazy") Touhou content creators, nagamimis, and you're starting to hear her on almost every voiced production now. While having produced Touhou voiced content looks like a major plus for a content creator (even though it's not that necessary for such niche franchise, but that's just my opinion), thing is you end up with productions that sound all the same. Here are some examples (again, YMMV depending on your tastes):

Also, noone mentioned them yet but you also have these ASMR videos by RemyFive:

I forgot about that Jo2n one, that one was the only one of the few I've seen in the past few years that got a laugh from me.

>>48659774
I like Jo2n's stuff

At the very least, I can say the voice acting is better than the writing.
