ESTELLEEEEEEEEE ♥♥♥ *_____________________*

Ins: Estelle, Riful and Tsurugi
Out: Raiha, Linda and Lucy

As a FoR fan, while I was rather giddy to see a Raiha apper, after reading your app carefully, your sample doesn't really show his voice to me and I'll have to second Roxas that you're missing a few of his key personality traits. And it seems as if your canon focuses about his role and abilities in the manga rather than his personality/voice which probably would've been more helpful for the canon blind people? I-I'm sorry if I don't make coherent sense right now orz

I was mostly kind of trying to focus on like. His reaction to the situation than bringing out all his personality traits, because I find that kind of hard to do in an app. But! Either way, if I didn't do what I set out to do well, I'll just have to try harder next time to write a more well rounded app.

Would you mind elaborating on which key personality traits I failed to bring out? I'll try to work with them more next time. ^^

Not at all! ^^ I understand how difficult it is to bring all a character's traits out into an app so umm, lesse... :(a

Admittedly it's been awhile since I've read FoR, but if I remember correctly, Raiha may be friendly but he seems to only act goofy/dorky/teasing around selected people (eg. Fuuko.), and generally he'd appear more as charming/enigmatic? After more squinting, I realized that you did add his aspect of being helpful in, but overall your sample seems to jump around with his reactions which makes it a bit difficult to catch a voice save for the 'dork' aspect? Another thing I think you're missing is analytical skills, but I could see how that would be difficult to integrate into a sample post ^^;;

Again, I'm running on low sleep right now, so if you'd like me to clarify anything, please don't hesitate to ask and if you have to re-app, I'd be happy to offer to help check the voice for you ♥ !

He's dorky around Fuuko the most, yeah, but I assumed part of the reason for that is that he interacts with Fuuko more than anyone else. He actually he can be pretty goofy in general, though. Like during the tournament he walks in and there's this dramatic moment and everyone is oohing and ahhing because zomg Raiha so badass! And then he trips and falls flat on his face and is all like "lulz! oops!" And that was in front of like. An entire arena of people.

So from my perspective it has as much to do with timing as it does with who he's with. Because I think part of the reason he acts like that is because he's hiding what he's really thinking. Like the T-shirts that say "Smile! It confuses people." But I realize I didn't really bring out how calculated he could be with his silliness which is probably a big reason why the voice seems off. So! I will have to fix that. :Db

You were actually really helpful, thank you! And I am totally re-apping (I have some ideas already thanks to the crit in this post!) and would love if you could beta ( ... )

I'm tired, so I'll be short.

I'm not canon-familiar, so I can't say much on the voice. My main problem is that I couldn't follow the app which lost a lot of the humor for you. There wasn't any one big punch in the app which usually sells it for me.
