    Apparently that was a style choice made by the voice director according to Kari. They said the British accent would be too distracting, despite Artoria Pendragon being... British.

    I think there was a similar reason used for Kari not speaking with an accent as Princess Ashe in Final Fantasy XII as well, I'm wondering if maybe - Emma aside - she's just not great at them.

    The Ashe thing was Kari's choice. It wasn't inability to do it (and it shows on certain cutscenes), but the game requires battle sound effects, which are taxing to do with an accent.

    WATXM was great but she sounded hilarious and the right age and threw a psi-spear in this. AWESOME

    The anime was garbage. TAS is unwatchable. Didn't see Gen X, but I did like that actress on HGTV.

    January Jones was fine in Unknown. They didn't give her enough to do in First Class.

    It says something that the only one that butchered worse in First Class was Darwin.

    I think Emma's depiction in WaTXM was one of the better done things in the show.

    Eh, outside the second episode, her entire existence there is to A) Betray the team and B) Try and **** Scott Summers. It's like someone read the most controversial parts of Morrison and Whedon and left it at that.

    Considering Kyost usually write Emma as a simpering crybaby, the way they wrote her in the cartoon was vastly superior.

    She was fine. Her plot was not. I guess that's the issue for me.

    love this analysis. Coupled with his cultivating serious relationships with women only to prove ultimately unable to commit (having a kid with crystal then dipping) and a classic case of queer-coding villains thru stereotypes (his theatrical mannerisms/speech patterns, his aforementioned coiffed appearance) and voilà: we’ve constructed a character that will never ever be officially “outed” by marvel despite relentless subtextual shenanigans

    Emma getting diamond dusted for love in WATXM cartoon was the pinnacle of jean Stan wank fantasy. I personally loved that ending.

    It wasn't supposed to be. Season 2 would have been the AoA, with Emma stuck in Jean's head until she would later return.

    Good thing God decided to just take that premise and do it in the Leftovers.
