No Satsuki Yukino and Hiyama Nobuyuki?

Is this some kind of joke?

Freeter · 2013-05-22, 12:27

Did they seriously just recast Saki and Madarame? EPIC FAIL.

Not even Sue is going to get me to watch this now.

AbZeroNow · 2013-05-26, 17:01

On the official site(and on Moon Phase), this has a premiere of "7/06 25:00" on Tokyo MX.

Will try to marathon all of the previous material in case Crunchyroll streams it.

TurkeyPotPie · 2013-06-01, 03:02

So I don't think a single seiyuu from the previous seasons returns.

Full cast list.

Nozomi Yamamoto as Chika Ogiue
Sumire Uesaka as Rika Yoshitake
Yumi Uchiyama as Mirei Yajima
Ai Kakuma as Kenjiro Hato (Female)
Kazutomi Yamamoto as Kenjiro Hato (Male)
Yukana as Kanako Ōno
Jun Fukuyama as Manabu Kuchiki (formerly Akira Ishida)
Naomi Ōzora as Susanna Hopkins
Kazuyuki Okitsu as Harunobu Madarame
Tatsuya Kobashi as Kanji Sasahara (formerly Takanori Ohyama)
Momoko Ohara as Makoto Kōsaka (formerly Mitsuki Saiga)
Rina Satou as Saki Kasukabe
Takayuki Kondou as Sōichirō Tanaka (formerly Tomokazu Seki)
Hiroki Yasumoto as Mitsunori Kugayama (formerly Kenji Nomura)
Misa Kobayashi as Angela Burton
Ikumi Hayama as Keiko Sasahara (formerly Kaori Shimizu)
Madoka Yonezawa as Kumiko Yabusaki (formerly Reiko Takagi)
Konomi Tada as Naoko Asada
Mamiko Noto as Kaminaga

Disappointed. I wonder what caused a wholesale recasting.

Utsuro no Hako · 2013-06-01, 08:54

I'm really surprised about Kuchiki. Jun Fukuyama is going to give the character a completely different vibe from the earlier seasons.

ahelo · 2013-06-01, 09:29

Oh get over it, I'm pretty sure you can get used to seiyuu changes after a few minutes. Didn't this happen to Brotherhood too?

Perhaps but they will certainly feel like different characters.

Sequel cast change vs Remake cast change.

Utsuro no Hako · 2013-06-01, 14:40

While I'd prefer continuity with the original series, I don't have a problem with most of the cast changes. But Fukuyama's too good at making characters likeable, which is totally not how Kuchiki is supposed to be.

TurkeyPotPie · 2013-06-20, 23:21

So a Genshiken OAD is coming:

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...inal-anime-dvd

I bet this is how they wrap up the end of the Genshiken manga that wasn't covered by the anime. I hope there is more than one OAD episode though, there's enough un-animated material for a couple of episodes at least.

ArrowSmith · 2013-06-24, 02:16

Genshiken 1 & 2 happened like 5-6 years ago. It's totally unreasonable to expect the same cast now.

Utsuro no Hako · 2013-06-25, 01:39

Latest PV:

Needs more Madarame and Hato.

articuzwolf · 2013-06-25, 01:51

darn, now they are really changed all the VAs

even saki and ogiue as well

~~Pocari_Sweat~~ · 2013-06-25, 03:04

Hopefully the opening isn't that high pitched crap that the PV is showing. Though I don't think nothing can match the opening/atmosphere that was portrayed in the first season:

YouTube

https://youtu.be/_CgcgckUflQ

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

I remember this anime... then compare it to the currently airing Oreimo, and it is truly truly a sad sight

backbone · 2013-06-25, 07:59

Ouch, Kuchiki will be voiced by Fukuyama? Not sure how it will really work given Kuchiki's personality

was gonna tell you off for comparingit to oreimo, then remembered oreimo was also supossed to be about otaku culture

Utsuro no Hako · 2013-06-25, 10:28

Well we do have WataMote coming up this season, which is basically what Kirino would be like in real life -- the creepy girl with messy hair and bags under her eyes who sits in the back of class and never talks to anyone. It should make a really nice double-feature with Genshiken.

~~Pocari_Sweat~~ · 2013-06-25, 10:34

I think I was unclear it what I meant. What I meant was I look at Genshiken S1 and gives me a big smile on my face because it's a slice of life anime on otaku culture done right. You look at Oreimo right now and she what a trainwreck it is considering

Spoiler for Comparison:

jeroz · 2013-06-26, 08:32

the second season for oreimo doesn't really count anymore, it just became a generic RomCom and not much about otaku culture.

I'm trying hard to think back to the this year and last if there are other otaku-culture focused series, and the closest I can think of is Ixion Saga DT with it's gaming culture references...

RandomGuy · 2013-07-02, 20:39

Saw the news about the recast.

Looks like they took the sub-title "Second Generation" a little too literally.

Incidentally, I seem to remember Ohno's new voice having played someone in the TV version of Kujibiki Unbalance. It wasn't the same character Ohno's original voice played in the OVA, was it?

EDIT: Why yes, Ayako Kawasumi played Kasumi Kisaragi in the KujiUn OVA, while Yukana played the same role in the TV series. That has got to be intentional.

Would love to see NIS America license rescue the previous seasons so they can get a beautiful Premium Box too.
