While many fans were saddened by the delayed release of Advent Children outside of Japan, Square Enix has released some encouraging news. The English voice acting, though not quite complete, is close to being so. Only a few character remain to be voiced. Even better, the Japanese version is finished. Those lucky enough to live in Japan have just over two weeks to wait before they're able to witness the long in-production CG feature film.
In a related progression, project head Tetsuya Nomura has chosen the image song, or main theme, for Advent Children. The track, "CALLING," by Kyosuke Himuro, is from a 1989 album entitled Neo Fascio. Nomura thought the song fit the movie's view of the world.
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children will be available in Japan on September 13th and will be followed by an international release sometime in the fourth quarter.
