EDITOR'S OPINION
Today for New Years Eve we take a look at this Mechanized Action Girl... KOS MOS! And for this VC we shall try a somewhat different style of review here...Bridget Hoffman- Nice and Calm and yet it sounds suitably robotic, definitely an interesting change of pace for Bridget's work here and is a very good example of the voice work in the games.
Colleen O'Shaughnessy- Colleen's work on the work is not bad even though she doesn't sound quite robotic enough compared to the other VA's here. But Colleen's performance does suit KOS MOS' caring nature nevertheless so its definitely not a bad performance even if its not exactly one of Colleen's best here.
Luci Christian- Luci's work on the role is easily one of the better performances in the dub of the TV show as not only does sound suitably robotic but she also sounds really strong as well. Luci has done some pretty good work in the "Action Girl" archetype but to me this is probably one of Luci's better "Action Girl" performances.
Overall I am going with Bridget and Luci the most with Colleen being a pretty good second.

Both Bridget and Luci are great in the role so I say it's a tie between both.
Colleen although she tries doesn't sound very robotic at all and more human like.

@RetroPokeFan In terms of KOS-MOS's fourth voice Caitlin Thorburn unfortunately sounds way too flat in the role.
Would have preferred if they had found a way to get Bridget Hoffman back but I'll let them off since she's not in the game for too long.

I really do wonder why the inconsistency in casting knowing that 3 games were being made back to back though?
I would say Bridget Hoffman is the best hands down.

1 Luci, I like that robotic filter she has as well and she is bit less stiff
2 Bridget- calm and robotic but a little too robotic for the slight human edge she has
3 Colleen- Too human sounding

Definitely going with Bridget Hoffman.
Sounds appropriately like a robot/cyborg and she brings a sense of calmness and warmth in the role.

Let's see... for me Luci, Bridget, then Colleen.

I'm...actually going to go with Luci. She's a lot more interesting to listen to.

A tie between O'Shaugnessey and Hoffman. If I had to choose one, it would be Hoffman...

Bridget Hoffman killed it here. She sounded robotic, just some what lively and vague.
Luci Christian is a close second but she's not as vague and lacked an edge.
Colleen O'Shaughnessey comes in third. She sounds to human and not as mysterious.
And last of all we have her XC2 VA Caitlin Thornburn. All things considered I really didn't like Caitlin Thornburn as Kos Mos. I know she's supposed to be a robot but she just sounded so...flat in her delivery. If anything being recasted in XC2 was the worst thing to happen to her since getting paired up with Fiora in Project X Zone (seriously no one deserves a punishment that brutal). I do hope that they get Bridget Hoffman back should they revive the series. I know they'll have to unionize it but I honestly feel that it would be worth it (not to mention it'll get Crispin Freeman back so that would be a plus).

What's wrong with Fiora? This is an honest question: I have never played the Xenoblade Chronicles games.
