Vocal performer Erin Fitzgerald will no longer appear in the forthcoming Guilty Gear -Strive-, as she is stepping down to make way for a Black voice actor instead Fitzgerald voiced the character Ramlethal Valentine, first introduced to the 2D anime fighting series in 2014’s Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- as a boss character. Despite being an artificial human, Valentine has been considered a Black character due to her skin tone. Fitzgerald took to Twitter in response to the news that Black voice actor Laura Stahl would be taking on the role. “Yes. To those messaging me, I happily stepped away so they could cast more appropriately,” she said.
