So much animu game gibberish. What is this, Final Fantasy XIII?

This is the second time Nintendo released the trailer with the Japanese voices especially with the release date getting closer. I hope I'm not reading into things too much, but are they not confident in using the English audio to promote this game? I know there's been a lot more mixed reactions than before or the very least not up to par with the first Xenoblade.

If all you've been exposed to is the American marketing, you're in for a real surprise when it comes out. They've been omitting a lot of stuff from the Japanese marketing.

Latest Japanese update was showcasing Tsuki

Did they show off the robot maid fetish scene yet in the American marketing?

I've started to wonder about that as well. I enjoy dubs and really liked the Xenoblade Chronicles dub, and even X's. But from what I've heard so far of this upcoming game, I'm not really feeling it...

Another thing I could hope for is all those English dub trailers that tends to be the case for some other trailers of other shows; they're not indicative to the entire thing. Maybe it's actually a lot better after giving it significant play time.

Well this is a drastic departure over the last game, in terms of story & character designs.

So great to see the waifu Hikari again. They really haven't been showing her. She's my favorite with Homura coming second.
