Mena Suvari on Aerith

[DLFlux]

Old now but a decent interview.

And her on doing KH2:

What do you think of her as the voice to the character?

I was able to tolerate her voice in AC, but NOT in KHII. I love Aerith, as my name should make that obvious, and her voice just ruined Aerith in KHII. It was seriously disappointing. I preferred Mandy Moore like in the first KH. I also prefer her new VA she has in Crisis Core, really over all. I think it suited her very well. Mena just didn't have it going on for me.

I dont like her voice as Aerith either, it grated me a little, she put on a really irritating voice

She has such a horrendous voice XD Watch the bottom video 0:25-0:28 it's amusing, there's absolutely no emotion in her voice, she even stands there static She also sounds like one of those creepy arse dolls you see on horror films in that section of the clip.

I don't think she was that bad in AC because I can't rally remember in being annoying >.>

Survani's performance as Aerith thus-far has been flat and unemotional. Aerith is supposed to be a playful, light-hearted character, and Survani just doesn't deliver that =/ Survani seems like a nice person and all, but that doesn't make up for the fact that she sucks at voice-acting. If Aerith has a role in any future compilation installments, I hope they give Bowen the job because she absolutely blew me away with her performance in Crisis Core. Survani's had a shot at being Aerith twice now, and she failed miserably both times.

Just for the record, her last name is Suvari, not Survani. ^_~ Mena Suvari. She's one of the American Pie chicks. xD

I've often said that I hated the English dub of AC for the lacking emotions in the character dialog, especially Aerith's, who because she had so little to say, her dialog was more noticable. That the same person did her in KH2 also disappointed me.

I'm sure Mena is a nice person and all, but fans rarely care about the person themselves, just their ability, and honestly, I didn't really care for her's >_>
