    Sugita as Ragna?Hmmm...don't think that's a very good choice,Ragna is a serious character and Sugita's voice is more suited for comedy characters.The rest of the cast seems good though.

    Sugita's been voicing Ranga for a long time. Ragna is quite funny sometimes.

    erm....sugita has been the voice of ragna since the first blazblue game. obviously u haven't heard much from sugita outside of his comedy roles. this guy can pull a lot of things off and serious is one of them.

    It says "the cast of the fighting game series will be reprising their roles in the anime",Sugita has already voiced Ragna in the games.

    @Shin
    You do realize Sugita was Ragna's seiyu in the original games too right? He did an awesome job in the games. I'm glad all the seiyu from the games are voicing their characters in the anime

    Yes,I do know that Sugita is the seiyuu for Ragna in the original Japanese game.But even so I still don't like his voice,have you guys ever played the English version with Patrick Seitz?It's so much better.

    Ragna is foul mouthed,rude and arrogant but Sugita's voice can't really pass that to the player.I still think Daisuke Ono would be a better Ragna than Sugita.That's just my opinion though.
    But don't get me wrong,i think Sugita is an awesome voice actor,but his voice just doesnt match with Ragna personality.

    I honestly think that Sugita's voice is better than Patrick's somehow. Ragna reminds me of Gintoki and I think it's great that they're voiced by the same person.
