For the record, Utawarerumono doesn't take place in a time we'd consider the past...

Yeah, that's a problem. Part of her character was that she sounded different, like a simple country bumpkin but if you took her at face value, you'd get pummeled. Her speech patterns should be melodic and streamlined, where would you find such an accent in Texas?

Making her sound like everyone else... what's the point?

... meh
This title was a complete disappointment.

I guess you need to play the game in order to get the whole story.

I wish the best of luck to Sentai on this title. I own the original series, and I picked up the OVA (although in hindsight, it was a waste of time). This season was not worth spending money on, a major disappointment. IMHO, a lot of wasted potential.

The False Faces is only the 1st half of the story.
The 2nd half is covered in the next game, The Two Hakuoros; a direct continuation of Faces's events ( and also answers some hanging plot points in Faces).

That said, the games are only available in Japanese, and there are no announced plans to animate Two Hakuoros yet.
