Anybody see the opening to PD: Extend yet?


Apparently, Sega added voices.
And I think instead of manually doing the voices in Vocaloid, they actually got the voice actors who originally offered the voices for them to do it. I don't really mind, it just astounds me that Miku, Rin and Luka don't really sound like their Vocaloid selves. Actually, Len is the only one who I could identify with no problem. Whatever Asami Shimoda did with Len, she didn't do with Rin. Even when she sings Rin songs in her Rin voice, it sounds off. It almost sounds like she's trying too hard, but that can't be it because that's the voice she recorded Rin in to begin with, so it must've just been something that happened in post. Miku doesn't sound terrible, but she just doesn't sound like herself. Luka too, but I think Yu Asakawa almost got her voice.
...Man, I feel really mean. I'm critiquing the original voices for the Vocaloids. >_>

Am I the only one who feels like this? Anybody agree with me?
