- Nearly every single line of English dialogue, and then some. Some of the more notorious examples can be found below.

- Even for Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown (released in 2012), all voice clips are bizarrely low-quality and sound as if they were recorded with tinny microphones. This problem still persists in 2021's Ultimate Showdown, which updated the graphics using the Dragon Engine from the Like a Dragon games post Yakuza 6.
- It should be noted that Lion's voice acting, in comparison to most other English-speaking characters, is commonly agreed to have worsened over time instead of (marginally) improving, with his VF2 debut usually said to be his most tolerable and VF4 instead serving as a feast for the ears.
