GASP The enemy! Happy Fuuka Friday, today we will take a look at some of the uncredited roles in the Persona series (mostly in P3 lol) and check out some of the theories on who might have voiced them.

I did my best to try to compare voices from around the time the original Persona 3 was released. If you have any information I may have missed or gotten wrong please leave a comment and provide a source if you can!

Check out my Design of Tartarus video: The Design of Tartarus - Persona 3

You forgot about the mysterious va for shadow yosuke in p4, Yaoi Highenthal who mysteriously has no history or even photos of themselves

@kevhasowo 1 year ago

Naoto va saying mystery solved was pretty tuff ngl

@gabrieldevoogel6225 1 year ago

Very sad that Ken’s actor is unknown, his delivery of “you murdered her” was amazing

@cutekyuu1 1 year ago (edited)

naoto unvoiced and being known after years is so ironic to me

@Gabe_29 1 year ago (edited)

Paula Tiso is probably Fuuka. Her delivery on Orochi from FE Fates is really similar to Fuuka

“I’m sorry Teddie, only people have human rights.” lives forever rent free in my head.

I'm Fuuka. You're Fuuka. Everyone's Fuuka.

These voice actors could be anyone of us. It could be you, it could be me, it could even be-

@LorenzoWritesComics 1 year ago

Wow, I had no idea there were this many uncredited actors. I only knew about Fuuka. Just subscribed in hopes of learning more stuff I didn't know about my favorite series

@Robpguitar21 1 year ago (edited)

I always wondered if the VA for Ken was an actual child, and perhaps thats why they never released the name. I can imagine a parent might not want their kid's name on a game this depressing, as good as it is.

I hope the original EN VAs for Fuuka, Ken, and Chidori would come out and prove they voiced the characters. While I do like Wendee Lee, and Suzie Yeung as the EN Voice of Fuuka, I still think the original EN Voice for Fuuka is solid.

I didnt hate fuukas original voice, but I did always think is sounded like her voice actor was given a webcam mic

@frupunrounin738 1 year ago

The Persona games were non-union for a while up until Persona 5 Royal I believe. Companies arent obligated to credit actors on non-union productions, that's why they werent officially credited.

@kasunex1772 1 year ago (edited)

My bet is Tiso for Fuuka and Hennsey for Ken. Both have the same unique inclinations in their voice as their characters.

@lucinae8512 1 year ago

I have noticed many voice actors from projects of this era, even Persona, have moved on from voiceover or acting in general. So its possible these original voices have flown under the radar, either because they're not active on social media and are unaware how well known their past projects have become, or they want to distance themselves for private reasons.

I was playing Trails of Cold Steel recently and I instantly picked out Mela Lee's voice as a character before I even looked it up. I've heard her in a lot of things and I've had a conversation with her at a con so I'm confident I know that's not her as Fuuka. I'm not nearly as familiar with Paula Tiso but I can definitely hear Fuuka when she talks. In any case Yeung is my favourite Fuuka by a really wide margin lol

deathbed confession ahh mystery💀

@stevenanderson7620 1 year ago

There is no doubt in my mind that Paula Tiso voiced Fuuka. While I lack the credits to prove it was her, I recommend looking at scenes in Final Fantasy X and Disgaea 1.

The more emotional scenes in FFX, such as when Lulu is confronted with Lady Ginnem’s spirit in Cavern of the Stolen Fayth, and Jennifer’s entire character in Disgaea having about the same timbre and pitch as Fuuka.

Of the three potential Ken VAs, I think Carolyn Hennesy was definitely the closest. I can’t quite tell if she also voiced Chidori.
