Overrated.

On my game, their voices are sort of high pitched, not that they're screaming, but the way it comes out the speakers. It's hard to explain, it's just that sort of sound feeling. smilie
Also, I don't really like it how their eyes kinda glow a yellowsh glow. It hurts my eyes. smilie and smilie's colours are really bright! Hmmm, yeah, smilie looks more indigo rather than black. She looks black as an adult. smilie
I perfure Sparx in ANB and TEN. smilie He's cute!! smilie
