Jessica Straus

Currently, best-known for her voice over work as the red-eyed, sexy, kick-ass, bad-girl, Juri Han, from the well-known game “Super Street Fighter IV” and “Street Fighter vs. Tekken” (to be released in 2012) Jessica Straus’ voice breathes life into a broad range of characters in games and animation. From evil babies, to powerful goddesses & herions, and everything in-between, including the sweet & innocent Sonja in the recently released RPG game, “Rune Factory: Oceans”.   Additional game titles include: “Infamous” (Sasha); “.hack” (Pi); “Samurai III” (Ina); “Transformers: War of Cybertron” (Slipstream), “World of Warcraft” series (numerous Gods, Demons, etc); “Sakura Wars” (Cherry); “Diablo 2” (Amazon) and “Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun” (EVA), to name a few.

Because Jessica started her acting career as a character actress on stage, she was grateful to have the opportunity to play multiple roles on numerous Anime series.   In “Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion R2”, she voiced the little girl, Princess Tianzi, and Zhou Xianglin, a tough military aide.  In “Monster”, she voiced Milos, a young boy, and a prostitute, among others.  One of Jessica’s favorite roles is Blue in “Wolf’s Rain”; although she probably laughed the most when playing Taruto, the magical kitten in “Meow, Meow, Taruto”.  Other favorite Anime roles include:  Eureka Seven (Gidget); “Please Twins!”  (Tsubaki Oribe); “Paradise Kiss” (Mikako Kouda); and FLCL (Junko Miyaji) .  Jessica was also voiced Deunan Knute in the theatrically released movie, “Appleseed”.

Currently, Jessica is having a blast working in animation and, of course, more games, which are all hush-hush until they are released or announced.  To learn more about Jessica’s voice credits in anime, animation, games, commercials, toys, etc., please visit her website at www.jessicastraus.com. *Links to Wiki, IMDB; Jessica’s Facebook VO page, are on her website as well.
