@@kawaiimochi319 I got the gist of what you were saying, but to say that Coraline _never_ got attention is likely a stretch.

I just listened to it and find it good in Spanish. (My native language is French and i like too her french voice) In fact I don't find that the soft voice corresponds much to the confident and sarcastic/rebellious character of Coraline.
