lol were there any males with K-ON in the first place? I don't recall any, and no the turtule doesn't count (at least i think it was a male haha)

^^

There was Satoshi, Ritsu's brother (and he only appears in the anime), Sawako's coworker who sometimes admonishes Sawako, and a bunch of male background extras.

But there are basically no male characters important to the story or characterization at all. The girls are rarely shown interacting with men so there's virtually no male presence in K-ON!

The only guy that interacts with them more than once that has anything really to say is the music store clerk.

Other shown for a little bit is the groom at the wedding Death Devil plays at.

Eru totally looks like Rea from Sankarea..and I swear if Yuuichi Nakamura was an anime character he'd look like Hotarou. I know KyoAni wont disappoint.

Oh boy I just hope the rest of the cast is likeable, especially Satoshi..I've never liked any of Daisuke Sakaguchi's characters (they're all the BFF of the protagonist) especially as a 'certain' character in a certain Production I.G. show that may or may not have the word 'Crown' in the title.

I seriously can't picture Ritsu's voice on the main girl. I'm sure she won't sound like her for the most part.

5 more days. I'm curious how the OP will look like.

Vexx · 2012-04-18, 01:36

I'm just saying thank gods its a co-ed cast and for that alone I'll give it a look.

ultimatemegax · 2012-04-19, 19:38

In their final pre-airing update, KyoAni updated their site with an outline page of the first episode (The Revival of the Traditional Classics Club), a comment from Nakagami Ryuuta, the director of photography, and a new blog entry talking about the event held last Saturday and the net-radio show.

In addition, the official site put up an ad for the net-radio show starting tonight at 22:00 (JST). In the ad, you'll be able to hear the voices used for Chitanda Eru (Satou Satomi) and Fukube Satoshi (Sakaguchi Daisuke).

Julio C · 2012-04-19, 20:08

Looks like he is going to sound a lot like Sunohara while Satomi won't sound like Ritsu so far.

GreatTeacherKen · 2012-04-19, 20:23

Since Nakamura Yuuichi's playing Oreki, it's going to be a reunion between Okazaki and Sunohara.

According to its myanimelist page, the novel series was finished in 2010. I presume that the anime going to adapt the entire novel series?

Technically the series is still on-going. The fifth novel was not really a conclusion, but nothing has been published in any literary magazines since. For reasons I won't state, I feel only the first four novels will be adapted. Only those four are being re-published this year with anime character covers, so that lends credence to that theory.

rulfo · 2012-04-20, 01:13

Wow... That really caught me off guard. If I didn't know who was voicing Eru, I might've not been able to correctly guess who it was.

Tottaly forgot about this. Probably won't watch it, this season has been too packed with awesomeness already. But if it's good I might marathon it later.

I'm watching this over Fate Zero. Fate Zero is awesome, but I stopped after 9 episodes and decided to wait by the end of the year to marathon that show instead and fully focus on Hyouka during it's initial airing instead.

I can see where you coming from I guess.

There are definitely a lot of good shows to watch this season. If Hyouka is good, though, I don't mind making more space in my week for it.
