I've seen the movie and the Jpn voice acting wasn't that good anyway since they used actors instead of seiyuu, also the dialogue was quite strange because the Jpn actors would all speak English (w/ accent of course) during the dogfights, so I just watched the movie in English anyway just to be consistent. Oshii Mamoru just isn't my cup of tea...<br><br>I'm kind of curious what Fragile would sound like in English, still hasn't brought myself to finish the game, kind of frustrating anyway...

It is really nice seeing Xseed trying to give us the best product possible. :) I'm happy about Fragile because it's one of the few Wii games I am excited about and a dual language option would be really nice.
