Biography

Palencia was born and raised in Oklahoma.[3] As a child, she lived in Honduras[6][7] until she was four. Throughout her childhood, she went back and forth between La Ceiba, Honduras and Owasso, Oklahoma.[1][2]

She settled in Dallas, Texas and graduated from Weatherford High School in 2002.[6] While studying at the University of North Texas, she was influenced by the anime series Dragon Ball Z.[1] After graduating from UNT with a Bachelor of Arts in music in 2006,[3][8] she began her career as a voice actress for Funimation.[1] She was also a director, but eventually focused more on the acting side of the productions.[2]

In her live-action work, she was the host of GameStop TV and has appeared in independent films, such as The Ladies of the House and Lumberjack Man. In 2014, she had a starring role as Roman's younger sister Sophia in The CW's science fiction romantic drama Star-Crossed.[9][10][11] In 2017, she was credited with performing a parody version of Sarah McLachlan's "In the Arms of An Angel", titled "On the Wings of a Battmann," in a Cyanide & Happiness short of the same name.[12]

Michael Tatum very carefully annunciate every word in the show. I couldn't tell if they were aping the super-articulate speech of the Japanese actors or what. It's not bad, it's just a little odd. The dub script is quite loyal to the subs. Palencia's performance really captures the character.

At this point this is a joke that has been beaten into the ground and has taken over any vestige of personality Juvia had left, something even her English VA Brina Palencia remarks on in her commentary for the episode. Palencia suggests that Gray gave Juvia her only sense of self-worth and that's why she has latched on to him the way she has, which does seem plausible given her origins; regardless, the episode feels somewhat painful to watch and Juvia like a character who could have been much more.
