How do you think MAPPA is gonna deal with Reze speaking Russian and Quanxi speaking Chinese? It would be hilarious if they went with broken Russian and Chinese like anime does with English.

Most likely they will. It’s not unusual for other languages that are not English and Japanese to be spoken. Russian is spoken a lot in Durarara. Most likely it will be broken Russian and Chinese though unless the voice actors know the language.

It would be appreciated if they hired foreign VAs for each language, but I don't think they will. They'll probably stick with Japanese VAs. But hey, Russian and Chinese are not very difficult for Japanese people, so it won't be very noticeable ig.

I'd love if they actually put in some effort into that and either hired foreign va's for em, or just used japanese va's that are fluent in those languages. If they don't, then it'll kinda be a letdown, ruins the immersion.

Chinese isn’t going to be a problem as long as it sounds like it does in Sword of the Stranger

They can’t hire foreign VAs to voice a character that already has an established voice…
They can’t have a character speak in 2 different biological voices, that’s worse than broken russian/chinese

Seeing the effort that went into Jujutsu Kaisen amd Attack on Titan it wouldn't be completly out of the question for them to go above and beyond.
But sadly for doing foreign languages, broken versions or simply just pretenting that Japanese is another language is the norm.

If you have watched Mushoku tensei then you should know if VA can pull Demon continent language https://twitter.com/reinrinn/status/1460617509476855811?s=21
then I can say there are many talented VA’s who can pull something like Russian and Chinese . I will just wait until the voice actors are revealed for quanxi and Reze .

That's for sure getting censored or straight up removed.

Mandarin (Beijing) Chinese is easy to learn but there are many dialects of Chinese and they always use mandarin even if it’s someone from HK and GZ.

Quanxi isn’t from any specified place, they can chose whichever dialect they like and make it canon

I honestly hope they keep source material. That "arc" in the story is a doozy, especially for the story itself.

If there's one thing Gacha games have taught me, it's that a lot of Japanese VA's are incredibly good at Chinese voices. Given there are some VAs that do both languages for a franchise.
