On the voice: I haven't played the japanese version (I wouldn't even really understand anything!), but marika's voice wasn't so bad after I got used to it. Although it's low compared to the english voice, it's still really childish... ain't half-bad after a while. She actually sounds really nice on Rikku's vocal collection.

English -Tara Strong
HEIGHT: 156cm/ 5'2 ½ ft

On the voice: At first I thought that her voice was perfect, but in FFX-2 it started to annoy me. I think her voice actually got higher in the sequel, if that's possible. But she puts emotions into her voice very well, so the pitchiness is a minor problem.
