I do see where he is getting at and it would be nice if Jun'ichi Kanemaru voiced Sonic instead of Ryan Drummond to begin with, but learning a whole language would be too much to ask for an actor.

A director can make an actor say whatever he wants for his production, can make an actor learn to say foreign lines from a script... but can't make an actor just learn a whole language.

The very least I would of liked the american Sonic Adventure cast to had never been replaced to begin with purely because consistancy would of been nice. I find it "breaking character" when a well known and beloved characters voice has to be changed.
