Meh.

The major decision in life is always quality or quanitity, isn't it?

I hope it'll work out, but I can't help but believe otherwise...

Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakamatachi - Minor role, show sold terribly.

If you're gonna bring up minor roles like this, why not bring up Index 2 where she had a minor role but the anime sold great?

And what I'm mainly saying is that you've got a higher chance of success using Rie than you do with other voice actresses. So what advantage is there to getting less experienced VAs when seiyuu prices aren't that different to begin with?

That sounds so wrong... as if they're available for buying...

JC Staff should also worry about making money, and no tsundere/loli seiyuu sells as well as Rie. Many people buy her JC Staff stuff only BECAUSE of Rie (like Hidan no Aria). This stuff would sell like junk otherwise... so why would they rather lose money just to give new seiyuus a chance when they can have almost guaranteed money using the safe and reliable option?

J.C. Staff needs to fire Rie, I'm kinda sick of her.

Do you still believe that the seiyuu can demand to the studios what roles they want and what they don't want?

And Rie doesn't work for JC Staff anyway, she works for a talent agency. But I think what Hoppy is saying is that sound directors for JC shows are too quick to cast Rie in the lead role (and she's not going to turn down a work offer, seiyuu live and die by how many episodes they can act in) when other seiyuu could do the job too.

Personally, I still love her and her voice always makes me happy. Though yes, there are many other seiyuu I'd like t hear just as much.

Pretty much this, JC needs to think more carefully in choosing a seiyuu for a tsundere, choose a rookie or even another veteran seiyuu, the lucky girl or woman may be good or superior if a rookie is chosen.

I think there is absolutely no reason to hate Rie. Hate JC Staff instead for giving her exact same acting job with tsundere. Rie is much more versatile seiyuu than anyone might think.

I see you haven't see Gintama, Nabari no Ou or FMA. You don't realize Rie actually does her job pretty well.

Rie is an awesome seiyuu. To be honest, she's the first seiyuu that I liked personally after her awesome role for Taiga.

But she's being overmilked, true. I will be more happy if she decreases her role and focus in some quality animu.

BTT, about J.C, I wonder if they can return to their golden ages if they create less anime per season. Their titles from the past mostly are good.

J.C. Staff just needs to go bankrupt already... clear some of the corruption out the anime industry.

Hello there, our big fat troll or the most foolish kiddy who does not even know what corruption even means.

As long as stuff like Hidan no Aria outsells nearly everything Madhouse has put out in the last 5 years, JC Staff will stick around. People like to hate on them, but they are one of the more successful studios in terms of amount of anime they put out a year and how much of it makes profit. They don't get the MASSIVE hits, but they get enough minor and good hits that they make a lot of money.
