:Some categories have no pain sounds of their own (e.g. "thugs") and use those or other characters (e.g. Striker pain sounds). This sounds more or less OK in Oni, where care was taken to have the two characters voiced by the same or otherwise similar voice actor, but localization teams can overlook this, ending up with characters' pain sounds that are vastly different from their spoken vocalizations.
