Critics also focused on the cast' voices. "UK Anime Network" liked Kana Hanazawa for the stronger tone she provided for her character in comparison to the previous works during the first movie.

"Anime UK News" and "Rice Digital" called Robert McCollum and Kate Oxley the best English actors in the dub.
