Staff and Cast announced:

Studio: Madhouse
Director: Satoh Yuuzou (Kaiji)
Series Composition: Fudeyasu Kazuyuki (Hajime no Ippo season 2 & 3)
Character Design, Chief Animation Director: Ebata Ryouma (Busou Shinki)
Art Director: Kouno Jirou (Amnesia, Sacred Seven, Ikki Tousen season 4, School Days)

Cast

Nanase Takeshi: Miyano Mamoru
Aiba Mui: Tohyama Nao
Isoshima Kurumi: Seto Asami
Ida Kazumi: Suzumura Kenichi



Tohyama is really popular these days....
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

^ Nobody said that when it Rettousei was announced to have anime adaptation... I guess this just goes to show the gap of popularity and awareness between the two LNs....

Madhouse handling 2 series... I don't like where this is going~
Mahou Sensou probably got the lower production value and effort though. Or does Madhouse have different studios as well just like in Sunrise's case?

i agree but since they picked up both lets hope they air during different season so the can focus on one at a time to put 100% of there effort on them

I guess it would not be so much of a problem if the 2 series are not aired in the same cour?

Yeah, Mahouka will probably air on Summer since it's a smarter move that way...

Doesn't people say this now because the studio for MahoSen was revealed to be Madhouse only after the Mahouka announcement?

ANN listed it Nobuhiko Okamoto as Tsuganashi Aiba...so, misinformation on their side?

I was thinking more about "another Mahou" than about Madhouse, but I guess I was not very clear about what I meant to comment in my post.

The official anime site has Okamoto voicing Nanase Gekkou, so if ANN listed it as Tsuganashi Aiba, then ANN has got it wrong. Perhaps ANN got their information from the Japanese wiki of MahoSen (which also has Okamoto voicing Aiba although the entry for Okamoto correctly has him vocing Gekkou in MahoSen).

Oh. alright. I thought maybe the chara was actually the same person with different name and you cleared that up. Thanks.

Just some more information: Aiba Tsuganashi is the elder brother of the heroine Aiba Mui while Nanase Gekkou is the younger brother of the hero Nanase Takeshi so they are most likely not the same person.

By the way, I have just checked and the Japanese wiki for Mahou Sensou already has the role voiced by Okamoto corrected. On the other hand, the English wiki for MahoSen still has Okamoto voicing Aiba Tsuganashi. Oh well.

The premise sounds interesting and judging from the casts it seems it's not going to be harem, though whether i watch this will probably depend on which way the balance of the plot shifts: soap opera love triangle surrounding the male protagonist or kickass magic battles?

I hope it's the latter since the studio and casts are awesome.

Not really sure what else is scheduled for winter, but this is probably gonna be one of my more highly anticipated shows of the season. If there isn't too much fan service and comedy I think it could be good, but I don't know much about the source material.
