I'm super interested to see how this works out. I liked the original voices well enough, and I was initially kind of worried because I wasn't sure what to expect, but having heard the Arena voices I'm much less worried.
For Teddie's voice I just sort of remembered that I found Teddie as a character annoying (he's the mascot character, isn't that kind of the point?) so a voice change isn't too huge of a problem.
For Chie, her original voice was great, but having heard the original Japanese voice, the new voice in the Arena trailer just seems like a better fit. Besides, she can always re-record AHA IS THIS OUR CHANCE since she's (most likely) going to be reading the same exact script.
Besides, this is a huge change for both characters! Sure a character may have different voices between games, but how often does it happen in a re-release of the original game? It can't be that often, right? It's totally fascinating to me!
