Line 3:
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: In Japanese, Zaka is voiced by [[Kazuya Nakai]], also known for his role as [[One Piece|Roronoa Zoro]]. And he's Steven Blum in English, so there's any number of reasons to squee for that.
** Likewise, the Ohtsukas (aka [[Metal Gear Solid|Solid Snake and Big Boss]]) voice Jaeger and Gregor. Now if only Jaeger had got a giant Ragnite Payload Lance and went [[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory|"I AM THE NIGHTMARE OF GALLIA"]]. Also, [[Code Geass|Lelouch and Suzaku]]'s Japanese VAs come back for another round (as Maximilian and Faldio, respectively). Not to mention... Maxmillian is almost like a 100% evil Emperor Lelouch.
** It's hard not to think of [[Black Lagoon|Revy]] whenever Rosie finished a sentence with "-da ze" (which was often).
** There's also how Cordelia is obviously voiced by [[Mamiko Noto]] in the way she used to voice [[Odin Sphere|Mercedes]].
** Jann the bender is [[Futurama|Bender]]!
** Irene Koller (the narrator) and Ms. Ellet {{spoiler|(who turn out to be the same person)}} are voiced in English by [[Kari Wahlgren]], the voice of Ashe from ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]'' and Raine Sage from ''[[
** In fact, chances are anyone who's savvy about English voice actors will recognize quite a few of them. Among others, Welkin is Dave Wittenberg ([[Naruto|Kakashi]]), Alicia is Colleen O'Shaughnessey ([[Digimon|Sora]], [[Tales of Symphonia
*** Dammit! Now I have the mental image of the sevens screwing up, and Faldio shouting [[Team Fortress 2
** Gregor is voiced in English by Roger Jackson, who is perhaps best known for voicing Mojo Jojo from ''[[Powerpuff Girls]]'', and the Phone Voice(s) from the ''[[Scream (
** [[Quinton Flynn]] ([[Metal Gear Solid|Raiden]]), [[Nolan North]] ([[Uncharted Drakes Fortune|Nathan Drake]]), and Sam Riegel ([[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles|Donatello]]) feature, not to mention [[Yuri Lowenthal]] (who is in enough anime and games to qualify as his own trope) who appears as Johann in the expansion.
** Alex Raymond has nearly the [[Roger Craig Smith|same voice]] as [[Sonic the Hedgehog|the famous blue mascot of another series created by SEGA...]]
** [[Fruits Basket|Tohru Honda]] was incarnated as a Darcsen (or Daruk if you play the Japanese/Asian version).
** The Japanese voice actor for Captain Varrot is [[Atsuko Tanaka]], whom you might have heard before in the role of [[Ghost in
*** She'd get along handsomely with Jaeger, methinks.
** [[Banjo Ginga|Gihren Zabi]] with the help of [[Gundam Seed|Kira Yamato]] and [[Gundam Wing|Heero Yuy]] and [[Banner of the Stars|Lafiel]] will purge Gallia of the oldtypes! SIEG GALLIA!
** Perhaps the strangest of all is that [[April Stewart]], the voice of Selvaria Bles, is arguably best known for her voice talents for practically every female character in the series ''[[South Park]]'', of all things!
** [[The A-Team
** If you've played ''[[Ace Combat 5 The Unsung War]]'', you should know that Welkin already has some experience saving his nation's leader - from a much more dire situation, in fact. And managed to evade [[Ace Combat 04 Shattered Skies|Mobius One's]] wrath a few times.
** Welkin ([[Dave Wittenberg]]) is also known as a certain [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|Clown with a famous 16-bit laugh]].When he's not embracing nature, he's destroying it. Sweet dreams.
** Alicia should consider [[Sayonara, Zetsubou

Line 28:
* [[Fan Nickname]]: Faldio is often referred to as 'Superman' for his ability to do no wrong at certain points in the anime. {{spoiler|Probably to make his eventual fall that much more shocking.}}
** Maximilian has been called 'Maxi-pad' by people who are familliar with the game, due to the fact that he seems to be a mama's boy and well, just look at [[Code Geass|Lelouch's profile]].
** Early on, the series itself was nicknamed '[[Minami
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Maximilian's brother is [[Hikaru Midorikawa]]. Too bad it doesn't go into the [[Relationship Voice Actor]] territory since they pretty much want to oust one another.
