An anime with extreme fighting action calls for high-spirited voice acting, and the staff at Bang Zoom! makes a strong effort to capture that passion in the English dub. Although most everyone delivers their lines with conviction, some of the voices just don't suit their characters. In particular, Maya and Aya (voiced by Wendee Lee and Tiffany Hsieh) sound too self-conscious and fail to bring out the special aspects of their personalities—Maya's inner wisdom and Aya's force of will.

Hill is passable when agitated, but is unable to project the calm confidence required by the new and improved Kira, derailing all of the scenes where his performance isn't swamped by battlefield violence. As Kira's assumption of his role as leader and protector is probably Final Plus's highlight, his weak performance has a very serious adverse effect.
