... and apparently, he's going to be voiced by Miyano Mamoru.
For once I actually am okay with seeing Miyano's name, I'm not fond of the character so giving him a voice actor I'm not fond of is only logical! >_>; Pretty amazing picture for the second season, I was immediately reminded of how good the first one looked. Considering that KimiTodo's popularity is currently at an all-time high thanks to the movie, I can't see the budget being drastically cut, and I'm sure we'll get more eyecandy starting this January.

The official website has more news: Tanizawa Tomofumi will return to sing the second season's opening, "Soufuu (爽風)". The ending, "Kimi ni Todoke...", will be performed by the R&B duo MAY'S.
The second season will start on January 4th. Same timeslot: 24:59, on NTV.

So starved for news! Fortunately, the ending theme was released recently, so at least we have that to tide us over As Katapan mentioned earlier, the song's called "Kimi ni Todoke..." and is performed by MAY'S.
I must say that I like it Though the first series' ending theme grew on me -and I like it as a stand alone song- it somehow didn't really click for me as a song fitting this particular series, while this one does (as far as sound goes, I have no idea about the lyrics mind ). Edit: Whoa, that one got deleted really fast. Let's see if this one fares any better. Edit 2: The official blog also just updated to show the cover of the first DVD: Last edited by Field of Lilies; 2010-12-24 at 17:13. Reason: Video was deleted, added working link and included DVD cover while I was at it |

I checked out the manga... but I'm not really a fan of the dynamic between the two main characters. Sawako is really cute, but I'm a bit annoyed at how socially perfect Kazehaya is. I feel like the story is pushing Sawako to become "normal" by developing a relationship with someone like Kazehaya.
She seems to be becoming less and less of a unique character as the series continues, like the only way to be happy is to be normal. Given the importance of individuality and alternative lifestyles in America, I'm not so sure how well this story would do overseas (except, of course, with American anime fans who want to date a perfect Japanese guy like Kazehaya, but he seems boring to me). |

However, on the off chance there's someone reading this thread who's unfamiliar with the story, I can't help but feel the need to provide a different view on this: Quote:
It's not saying "be a loner and be miserable for your entire life", it's saying "if you're a loner but don't want to be, you can change that. You don't need to change yourself, but you do need to show people the real you". |

I'm just having issues with how... in awe of Kazehaya she is. There's something about the fact that he's the most popular guy in school, yet still somehow so kind and sweet, that annoys me. I know it's fiction and can't be compared with real life, but I've never found a popular, athletic, handsome guy who wasn't egotistical, vulgar and annoying. Highschool dating taught me that. If Kazehaya was less of a superstar at school, and had a few more flaws, I think the manga could really leave a more positive feeling in it's readers. It's one thing for a girl to think a guy is Mr. Perfect, it's another thing for him to actually BE Mr. Perfect and have everyone acknowledge that fact! haha I've read up to chapter 51 of the manga, by the way. I only watched a bit of the first anime. |
