Nicely drawn art. Depending how many volumes we get, I'm assuming each member of the Souma family will get a cover.

I hope this version has explosions and zombie apocalypse. Let's spice up this cutesy drama.

Looking good with handsome voices. I'm excited for more.

Sakurai's one of my top choices for Ayame, so I'm pretty happy about this!

There's a very specific seiyuu I want for Ritsu, but I think the chances of that are pretty low... ^^;; ah well. Still waiting to see who they cast for the rest, especially Akito.

Locoooo! Apurense 😂

I'm happier about the choice for Ayame than I am for Hatori... But it could have been much worse so I guess I'll leave it at that.

I'm loving the designs, they look modern
