The amount of pressure and expectation for an actress to play such a beloved and iconic character and yet she still managed to exceed even those expectations. Not to mention she had no prior experience to voice acting before this role. In some of her interviews you’ll even hear how much getting casted caused her to feel alot of imposter syndrome. But she persevered and put her full effort into this role and soldiered on. If that doesn’t define “showing a clear dedication to their craft”. Idk what does. Fully deserves the nomination and the win in my books. Also kudos to Squeenix for finding this woman. Casting department 100 percent knew what they were doing and believed in her even before she did.
Couldn't agree with you more. The whole cast killed it from top to bottom. But Briana's performance as Aerith recaptured my heart. (Aerith has had my heart since I first played the OG game in 1998). Bri has made this role her own like no other to where she is 100% MY Aerith.
Yeah I just can't imagine anyone one else as her EN VA. She really does put her heart into her role as Aerith and that shows in spades through her performances.
For me the answer is a solid yes. But beside the game award nomination, did you see that both her and cody won for best v.a at joystick awards this week? Thats such a treat for a clerith fan. The true main characters getting the atention they deserve
Considering Briana has received hate since Remake, for playing Aerith. And people trying to dig up dirt on her, because they hate Aerith. I think we all know why a good amount of people would be upset. Especially with all that NPTK trailer chaos. I saw some videos for the awards with Tifa in the thumb nail... Not even Cloud, just Tifa. And it's the same for new info/game updates for FF7 videos. Tifa in the thumb nail. like she's the main or only character in the game. The winners and nominees through out the years have been so mixed. Some more serious, some less serious, Some very little range or scenes, some more, etc. If people get more upset about Briana than all the previous winners and nominees, I think we all know why.
Honestly wish they made her role even bigger in Rebirth considering how prominent she was in Remake but I really hope she and all of the FFVII team sweep
Ughgh Neil was SOOO good with Astarion, he literally still brings Astarion out even in person, he IS Astarion. The same is for Bri, she's become Aerith. I always cry with Aerith scenes, but even when Bri speaks so enthusiastically and emotionally about her job and about Aerith, I get choked up. SO good. She really deserves best performance.
Great vid dude. She has already won Golden Joysticks and I have always rated that awards more highly. Unlike this wannabe Oscars, the Golden Joystick award seems to favour quality over statement. Well done Bri!
I did vote for Briana however I wouldn't mind if the voice actor for James from Silent Hill 2 Remake won, I also enjoyed his performance. Never played Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, and Life is Strange was good vocally but I don't picture her winning.
Yeah the nominees in the category are extremely talented and it will be competitive. I loved Luke Robert's James too! I would want him or Briana to win!
The Nominees for the category are insanely stacked! I would love for Briana to win it and I believe she should, but the others are all incredible and deserving as well.
One of the most beloved characters in gaming that stuck with millions of people for decades portrayed wonderfully to the point that even the ultra-picky hardcore FF7 fans had 0 problems believing this was indeed Aerith. Yes, she does deserve it and hope she wins it. Silent Hill 2 James was great as well, strong performances this year all around.
I love her voice as Aerith and voted for her, BUT I do think Cody Christian has the best performance as Cloud is Rebirth & I feel he should have at LEAST been nominated at TGA Cody has soooooo much nuance in his performance and I feel like he does it perfectly!
Does she deserve the nomination? Absolutely. But I hope there are categories for writing as well, because her dialogue was hands-down the best in the game. Cody is likely going to have huge opportunities himself to show a wide range of emotions, reactions, etc in part 3
She deserves this award in the greatest way possible. I could never think of a better Aerith than Brianna White. The fact that Brianna and Cody won for Best Lead and Supporting Performances at The Golden Joystick Awards have already got me so excited!If she wins this award, it will make my year!🥹🩷
For Aerith's EN VA, yeah I couldn't think of anyone else who could have nailed it as Briana has. I love Maaya Sakamoto as her JP VA as well. These two women are extremely talented.
@mlwjrpg Sakamoto-san is a legend... She's known for doing her performances in one take. It's like she has a natural quality and intuitive sense of tone and emotion. The fact that Briana did her best to study her showed so well in Rebirth. She really went all out throughout the game. The last 3 chapters were just amazing!
Luke roberts has my vote because he was responsible for the mocap and all of james powerful facial expressions. Briana is my 2nd pick, though, and I would have no issues if she won.
Only deaf fanboys would vote for her. Her performance is 0815. did you even listen to the Japanese Aerith once? THATS how voiceacting is done. Same with Cloud. They won just because ff7 popularity, not for level of skill.
Go vote for Briana and also FF7 Rebirth here ► thegameawards.com
I did 😊😊😊
@@MikeHawjSGAerith2025 Good stuff sir! Let's hope Rebirth wins all 7 nominations.
Let's do the voting and supporting them!! 🤩💖✨️

Oh yeah for sure the CA representation was real!
Briana has earned it guaranteed.
🔥🔥🔥

There's no question. And if that dude from Silent Hill 2 remake wins, my irrational hatred for that game will grow even stronger.
Oh that's interesting, I really enjoyed SH2R and Luke's role as James. I don't think it was better than Briana's performance though.
She absolutely nailed Aerith, no doubt about it.
Honestly wish they made her role even bigger in Rebirth considering how prominent she was in Remake but I really hope she and all of the FFVII team sweep
Omg the Dyne scene was the first thing in this game that just had me sobbing! (Wouldn't be the last)
I'm right there with you haha! My same experience!
Ughgh Neil was SOOO good with Astarion, he literally still brings Astarion out even in person, he IS Astarion. The same is for Bri, she's become Aerith.

Yes she does because her voice is amazing as role of Aerith ❤❤❤❤
Yes she did a great job and is deserving to be a nominee. I hope she's able to win it at TGA.
@@mlwjrpg plus FF 7 rebirth must win GOTY too. If it doesn’t win mean it is robbed 😭😭😭😭
Great vid dude. She has already won Golden Joysticks and I have always rated that awards more highly. Unlike this wannabe Oscars, the Golden Joystick award seems to favour quality over statement. Well done Bri!
Briana deserves the nomination!
‘Krah-tos’ 😂😂😂😂
Haha Kray or Krah the ongoing debate lol
@@mlwjrpg How is this even a debate. Nowhere in the game does anyone call him Krah-tos.
@@Josiahyb99Not in English, but in other localizations it is Krah-tos, not Kray-tos.

Yeah the nominees in the category are extremely talented and it will be competitive. I loved Luke Robert's James too! I would want him or Briana to win!
I really hope that Briana will be awarded, but something tells me that Melina Juergens has the best chance

I prefer the Japanese Audio Track for the Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy, but Briana White did an excellent job for sure.
Does she deserve the nomination? Absolutely. But I hope there are categories for writing as well, because her dialogue was hands-down the best in the game. Cody is likely going to have huge opportunities himself to show a wide range of emotions, reactions, etc in part 3
That's easy... Yes
Yes.

@mlwjrpg I agree with you on that. Such talented women in this game and in general👏
@@Pr1ncessLayla1 We're so blessed to have them bring Aerith to life!
@mlwjrpg Sakamoto-san is a legend...

She is fantastic, but it has to go to Luke Roberts because James has more range
I would not be upset at all if Luke takes it, his James was so damn good and real!
imo yes its for sure her breakout role
Luke roberts has my vote because he was responsible for the mocap and all of james powerful facial expressions. Briana is my 2nd pick, though, and I would have no issues if she won.
I can get behind this 100%. Luke’s performance was next level! I’d be happy for him or Briana to take this award.
why the hell should she not?
Only deaf fanboys would vote for her. Her performance is 0815. did you even listen to the Japanese Aerith once? THATS how voiceacting is done. Same with Cloud. They won just because ff7 popularity, not for level of skill.
When you say 'fanboys' do you only mean boys? Because I voted for her and I'm a girl
Yes.
