The only thing that grinds my gears with a certain small subset of japanese sub elitists is them being hypocrites about the "original japanese language version is automatically superior but whoops I forgot this japanese made work was originally made with english voices" thing.

I have read posts here and there with some of these nerds bashing the english voices for games like devil may cry, resident evil, and even kingdom hearts of all series despite all these series originally only having english voices to begin with, so the "original version is superior" argument goes right out the window since these people just cannot help being hardcore japanophiles.

*Vergil for example did not have a japanese voice until ultimate marvel vs capcom 3, and aside from the anime the games did not have japanese dubbing until devil may cry 4 special edition years later after the original dmc 4 and devil may cry 5. Yet these same elitists will swap over to japanese voices starting with 5 because apparently that is how its supposed to be now, =/ Resident evil did not get japanese voices until I want to say RE5 and RE revelations (funny enough, the original RE1 almost had japanese voices, but mikami decided to cut them out since he thought they sounded lame, lol). The re-release of REmake 1 got japanese voices added to it, but yeah....up till that point it was only ever in english. Viewtiful joe is another japanese made series with english voices*

Hell you even see these same group of dudes do the same thing with north american/western made games in general that has an anime inspired art style. The game river city girls?.....that is made by wayforward, and while the trailer for the first game had a japanese dub-over the game proper was only in english, with a ton of dudes on message boards repeatedly asking the question "how do we swap to japanese voices" when it came out. Of course the same posts asking how to swap to japanese voices started saying the dub for the game sucks not realizing that it wasn't made by technos japan and that a bunch of muricans' made the game the first place.

River city girls 2 actually will officially have japanese voices so I expect for those same derp posts to pop up again, lol.
