She was Anna Williams' voice in tekken 5 and 6, changed in ttt2 and tekken 7, tho the battle grunts are still her's in 7. Anna's newer voice in tag 2 and tekken 7 is nice tho I did prefer the one done by this announcer in 5 and 6 Another fun trivia for those who know the latter, Anna's tekken 7 voice actress is the same as Katarina in league of legends

Indeed

[@wilsonng994]

Wow that's something I didn't know about. For while I thought the voice actor of the Geartlinger was a male judging from the name but I was wrong. Anyways glad she's part of the Tekken franchise as a announcer.

[@rmnhn]

The fact that she voiced Anna back in Tekken 5, with her in-game sound bytes being used until Tekken 7, is a fact that is not lost on me, but sadly seems to be for other people.

[@PlayersPurity]

Only her battle grunts done by Lenne have been reused in all Tekken games since 5, but her dialogue has been voiced by Tara Platt since Tag 2. Tara also voiced her dialogue in scenario campaign cutscene in T6, but they still used Lenne's battle dialogues from T5.

[@ishigame2476]

She has been doing this FOREVER. If you watched MMA before UFC her voice is very noticeable as she did introductions way back in the Day for PRIDE, DREAM and other Japanese MMA promotions.
