    It seems to be a bit of a mix between swedish/dutch/netherlands, english, with a slight america tone to it on occasions (which to me seems to become more prominent as the game goes on). It is definately very odd, especially since none of the other Viera seem to talk like this. Given Fran is pretty darn old, it's fair to say that the accent has probably been picked up elsewhere, perhaps some far-away land away from the main area where the game takes place.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I love it. It's weird how most people either love it or hate it. o.O If you took her voice away from her, she wouldn't be sexy at all.

    I like it because she seems to have an accent that is of no accent on Earth, a "vieran" accent I guess. It's cool.

    English isnīt my native language, and Franīs voice makes it really hard for me to understand what she is saying. I can bearly understand her.

    Not true. Jote and Myrn clearly talk with accents when you watch the cutscenes with them present. Though I find them slightly different from Fran's.

    Mjrn and Jote also talk with accents, but nowhere as extreme or distinct as Fran's accent.

    Mjrn has a sort of Arab/Persian accent.

    Jote has a sort of Scottish/Irish accent.

    And Fran has a sort of Icelandic accent.

    Fran is sexy and so is her voice, but sometimes her voice does sound really crusty.

    Huh? lol...I think she would, I wish girls dressed like Viera do in real life hah

    Also, I dont love or hate it, I must be one of the small minority which just dont have feelings about her voice either way, its just a voice, moderately pleasent, moderately annoying :P
