Hi, everyone.
On Friday afternoon (April 23rd, 2021) I'm going to interview Rena Strober. She is the English language voice actor for Bloodless, Anne and the singing fairy. Rena is also known as the voice of Sailor Moon's Esmeraude (Viz dub), Azura from Fire Emblem Fates and Persona 4: Dancing All Night's Kanami Mashita.
We previously spoke to Rena way back in 2018 during the recording session for the game:
If you have any questions for Rena, please add them to this thread. I'll check in on Friday morning to collect them and choose some for the interview.
Thanks for your help!

hi Q/Rena!
I'll shoot out a bunch. Don't feel like you have to use all of these.
(Bloodless) Bloodless has her own mode and it's arguably one of the best extra modes an Iga game has ever had! Did you have any idea they would do that during voice recording?
Were you surprised that the Bloodless character was such a huge hit?
Bloodless is very similar to a recurring villain in the Castlevania games, Carmilla. Seeing that and since she became popular too, we're assuming you would reprise that role - and in doing so, how would you like to see the character develop and used in the future?
There is a bit of a difference in tone between your voice for Bloodless and the Japanese actress, Saori Gotô - it's almost like a "choose your personality" for the character, which is neat in a way. Do you think this will be the case going forward, or was this not necessarily intended and they'll mesh into one?
(Anne) There is some speculation among hardcore fans that Anne could be a future Bloodstained heroine in her own right. What are your thoughts about "main character" Anne? I think she's at least a little special because somehow, Dominique says she was able to teach Anne how to "purify the shards" like she does.
Related to the above and being somewhat evidence for it, you could show her this short tweet thread I made not long ago about how she's very referential to Sonia Belmont, a character that Iga and Castlevania were not able to use much:
What do you think Anne keeps in that big pouch? Snacks? All the money she's going to make from Miriam? Or a GUN?
Anne probably thought a lot of Dominique since she protected her and took care of her after the monster attack where most of the village was destroyed and she lost her parents. However (spoilers:), Dominique became the main villain of the game. Do you think Miriam and Johannes should explain to her what happened right away, give it time, and/or maybe adopt her?
(Fairy/Carabosse) Were you aware of the singing fairy in Symphony of the Night being a fan favorite Easter Egg when recording her song?
(Other) Do you have any fun stories to share from your time recording for Bloodstained?
Are you friends with any of the rest of the cast and have any stories to share about them?
What kind of characters not currently in Bloodstained would you like to see? Who would voice them, including yourself?
