• Acting for Two: The developers were eager to get lots of mileage out of their (probably expensive) VA talent. The actors voiced three characters apiece, including the performers in Gonzola's circus troupe. Cam Clarke gets bonus points for playing Ryudo and Father Carius, and thus spends a whole scene chatting with himself.
• Cross-Dressing Voices: BJ Ward doing the voice of Roan.
• Hey, It's That Voice!:
  • Leonardo must help a young girl possessed by Ariel, and along they way they help restore a kingdom ruled by Princess Allura.
  • Don't forget Leonardo's pet bird, Roy Campbell, who also goes by Grandpa Max.
  • Elena is also Naomi and Felicia Hardy.
  • Let's face it: the entire cast is a "who's who" of popular voice actors from the late 90's and early 00's, including roughly half the cast of Metal Gear Solid. Compensating for the amateurish voice acting of the first game, maybe?
• Playing Against Type: The most obvious and cited example is Jodi Benson as Millenia, but Jennifer Hale, who generally plays Action Girl and Hot Amazon types, voices shy, proper Elena. And despite Benson being the better-known singer of the two, it's Elena who does the singing in-game.
  • The rest of the cast, however, generally don't get pigeonholed, and most play multiple roles in the game's dub (Cam Clarke even does some Talking to Himself early on).
