So I was playing the English dub last night, and my sister, who I am now dubbing as this wiki and forum's resident weeaboo, noticed that Geardo's English VA sounds like Maes Huges from FullMetal Alchemist. I looked up some clips from the show, and played Maes' lines back to back with some of Geardo's, and while they do sound similar, I don't think it's the same guy. Do any of the English dub's VAs sound familliar to you? They might have also done work in other NISA dubs.
What's on your mind?

Any thoughts on what exactly happens at the start of Chapter 25? We get a shot of Geardo's castle thing, and hear roaring, then it just cuts directly to Perfect Chaos Geardo I'll call him, in a sea of purple goop. My current theory is that Geardo, after decades of living in a mechanical body, can manipulate any machine so long as his soul remains, so after his death in the throne room, he takes control of his entire castle, and transforms it into a new body. I feel like there was very likely going to be a Metal Madness/Metal Overlord transformation scene showing the castle coming to life, and flooding Naga with purple goop, but PROPE must've run out of money or got lazy or something.
Design and music wise, it's definitely Belhemous. The track that accompanies her fight gives off some serious JAWS vibes, and the organic insides of her mouth imply that this creature may have been completely flesh and blood at one point, but was taken and mind controlled by Naga. The most iconic is undoubtedly Deogordam, as there are mass produced models everywhere, and it's the first real boss fight. There may have been a time in development when Deogordam were more plot-important, as they can be seen all over marketing materials, and are the first thing you see when you start up a new game. The most fun to play, however, is Zolendark. Unless you're playing Kadokawa's version, in which case, I'm so fucking sorry you had to experience that. The fight starts just like the two before it, in an enclosed arena with Zolendark just going about her business, until you land the first hit. Zolendark shoots up into the air, and what follows is the most fun, high-octane fight Mr. Naka's ever been involved with. This shit's better than Perfect Chaos and Finalhazard. What are your thoughts?
Let's be real: the 3DS version is nearly unplayable. The Wii U port fixed a few things, the biggest improvements being the framerate and the second analog stick for camera movement, but it's still not really good, like, at all. I know Kadokawa is like a multimedia publisher (my jaw hit the floor when I saw their name at the beginning of End of Evangelion), so it seems like they'd know what they were doing. So this begs the question- are all of Kadokawa's games shitty ports of incredible games?
Does anyone have a chart, list or video to show where all the "hidden enemies" are in the Wii U version? I want to unlock the Dark Rodea costume, but information about them is almost nonexistent.
I've heard there are some in chapters 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 16, 19 and 22, but I've only found the one in chapter 2 myself, and I have no details about the others.
Wouldn't it be awesome if Prope pulled a Christmas NiGHTS, reskinned the first 5 chapters, made 'em Christmasy, threw in extra content, and offered it as a free demo disc?
