Nothing wrong with Makima's voice, it's just that you guys headcannoned her with someone different when reading manga... It is a similar situation to what happened with adult Nelliel in Bleach.

It happens often when reading manga.

Myself, as someone who doesn't read it, found Makima's voice rather fitting.


Enjoy in thread.

OP is right, its a low priority manga, getting a low priority treatment, for a low priority fanbase. Just look at the VA cast.

Agreed. I think it sounds perfect.

People just want her to have some seductive mommy voice.

Man, while reading the manga when it was airing I made myself hear Makima as a relaxing and soft voice like... Hitagi or Adult Shinobi from Monogatari

I will admit I was rather disappointed. But you know what, I'll try to see how Tomoriru's voice will pan out as Makima and even if the casts didn't go with what I want? I kinda respect what MAPPA is going for with the seiyuus as they went with the obscure choices rather than popular ones.

I can't even remember what voice I had imagined for Makima so I'm more or less fine with it but her performance in the anime is going to tell more than the trailer. Btw, it's the way she behaves that has people wanting a seductive voice.

Indeed, I don't have complaints about Makima's VA. I think it feels her character and how she acts. I don't think a mature woman VA would fit much but I am thankful it suits her nonetheless

You guys really don't give a chance to someone...They're trying to use fresh talent and i'm all up for it. 3 minutes of trailer to me isn't enough to judge a main character's voice which will probably span across multiple episodes. Watch it first and then draw your own conclusions.

Well nah ! The voice doesn't match with makima's personality . It's like she's trying hard to voice like makima . You can see her other voices for example

I don't particularly agee, because the author himself has said that Nelliel has the largest breasts in Bleach. It makes no sense to make the Alpha Female sound like a... plain girl.

The thing about Nelliel was that Tomoko Kaneda is god level loli seiyu, and she fitted little Nel perfectly, but in case of adult Nelliel, she wasn't able to sound mature enough even if she tried at the time.

It took years for her to mature enough, and in Bleach Brave Souls she sounds very good, although, it still isn't like the type of voice of Rangiku, or Yoruichi that most of us imagined adult Nelliel with.

(Mentioning it beforehand, no hate to the voice actor, it should be obvious.)

I don't know what to say, if the majority of the people did in fact think of her voice as a mature woman, that tells something. It tells her personality should (or expect to) have an acceptable/predictable range of voice.

Saying stuff like "oh you just want her to sound like a mommy dommy" or " you're just horny" makes absolutely no sense (I will agree that alot of the fanbase of CSM consists of bad apples, all the woof woofs, Jesus Christ). If her personality was indeed that of a fairly aged office-working woman, it does need to sound like that, it also needs to match her body proportions.

Not that anyone asked or you should care but I don't want to hear the "There are many things that humanity would be happier without, take for example blah blah blah" speech in a high pitched voice, I'd be expecting something more bold and perhaps even raspy.

Buuuut then again, discussing this wouldn't really change anything at all, the production ended and there's near damn nothing to change it. We get what we get.

I know her from several anime(Gun Gale Online, Anima Yell, My Senpai is Annoying etc.), so it's surprising that they picked her out of all people.

Lol. I don't really have a problem with her. Maybe sounds a little too young? But isn't Japanese voices a lot more different than western. That's something to take in.
