I really like the character designs but quite disappointed on the seiyuus being chosen. But I'll give them a chance, it might be their opportunity to shiiinnnee.

We got Andre and Saitama/Banri here lol. Though Kakeru's seiyuu has really few roles and only one main roles so far so it's kinda hard to predict how his voice will be.

Furukawa Makoto as Suwa? I dunno what to say. I just hope he doesn't talk while pinching on his nose (Saitama) lol. It would sound just... bad.

Not sure about Kakeru's seiyuu either as I have hardly noticed his voice in other anime. Could this be his break-though role? We will have to wait and see.

I think Okitsu Kazuyuki as Hagita will be okay. He has a lot of experience under his belt.

Dear god this manga ended terribly. It had one of the most interesting stories and then the author just seemed to...lose interest.

I can already feel an "Erased" like outcry by anime only watchers when they see the clusterfuck and half-assed ending.

Was just going to reply to that individual, the manga was fantastic and everyone in Japan knows this story, it shocks me to see people watch an anime knowing nothing about it.

I don't see nothing wrong with it. It's not that uncommon nowadays.

You know, not everyone watch an anime based in a manga because it has read it. Secondaries exists for some reasons after all.

The designs are sure nice, I don't really care that much for VAs.

I'll most likely end up reading the manga before it airs tho.

I wasn't implying people should read manga before they watch an anime. I was claiming that someone said they're only watching this because of a VA and that's just ignorant imo. You should at least know the genre of the show and what it's summary before saying I'm going to watch this, that's why people end up dropping shows and giving them bad ratings after 1 ep, which I don't think is fair to do to a show.

Don't worry for that. I'm an open minded person who watch anime of every genre (I'm not very picky in that sense) and never drop anything of the seasonals, nor I judge and anime just after watching one or two episodes. I try to be open before deciding if something id bad or good, and I don't rate anything until I finish it.

Btw, I read the summary time ago, just happens the reason why I decide to watch this is because something that has called mya atention. There is no need to form a drama just for one thing. I never said the show was going to be bad.

Will wait and see how it'll turn out to be. I wanted Kakeru to be voiced by Kaji Yuki, tbh.

Well, i'm pretty happy that its not the usual Sakurai, Yuki Kaji and other usual popular seiyuu.
Not that i don't like them, on the contrary but ...
it's always nice something different.

Can't say I'm very happy about this ... Had a different image of the character's voices when reading the manga. Hope the seiyuus don't dissapoint me, as I'm really looking forward to the series

I know how the seiyuus sound so I think they'll fit perfectly on the boys.

Oh darn it I was hoping Suwa would have been voiced by Tatsuhisa Suzuki and Kakeru by Daisuke Namikawa. Oh well it still looks good.

Asides from HanaKana, I'm not at all settled on the cast. Saitama voicing Suwa? I have my reservations about that. Kakeru's VA also needs to be able to correctly portray his emotional sensitivity too, otherwise the performance will come across as flat or forced.

I'm super excited, mostly because they DIDN'T choose obvious seiyuus like Yuki Kaji. I don't know much about these actors, but that just makes me more interested!

Especially in animated Suwa <333
