Little Busters - Voice Actor Appreciation & Discussion
 

For those of you interested:
Mio's original voicer is doing a radio show on Onsen, and it has video.
You can see her big belly when she stands up. :p
The other girl is Kyouko Yuruyuri.

Sasasasasasaga Sasasami's new V.A. gives her a... very ojou-sama like voice, and while it's funny I find it very not fitting her small character.

Just my 2 cents.

What? I mean I haven't played Sasami's route, but at least in the common route she's portrayed as the queen of the ojou-samas! I thought the voice was very impressive. Maybe that laugh was a bit overdone though :P

I know! I played lb but i guess i just miss her old voice...

Niiiiice.

Nice to see nagai has some part of LB so the episode should be good then.

Tatsuyuki Nagai!

Well that's interesting. Can't wait for Nagai's ep.

Curious but what are the names of the episodes?

Not announced in that image.
サブタイトル未定 = subtitle/episode title TBA

The other thing that's interesting to see is that the main director, Yamakawa Yoshiki, is doing two more storyboards already, so he's continuing to be very "hands-on" in terms of the show. This is what was expected given that he did the storyboards for 9/13 episodes in his last show. It's hard for me to imagine the sort of pressure on that guy right now given the huge weight of expectations of the fans, so I find myself cheering for him.

(And also encouraging, of course, that all the scripts are being written by the main story planner, but I basically expect this to be the case for the whole show. This is actually a rather expensive and time-consuming method that isn't often used for two-cour+ shows, but obviously the story presentation is very important to them. Of course, that means all the pressure is on Michiru Shimada to find that impossible right balance...)

Well shimada is apparently a huge fan of the VN and has played it with her daughter. Shes even going back and replaying it to make sure nothing is left out so i imagine its really hard for her to write for this and one piece.

Well, actually, I don't think she's still actively working on One Piece. The last episode she is credited for was back in 2004. Of course, she has done all sorts of other work since then.

Ah ANN credits her as the main script writer (and storyboarder) so i figured she was still working on the show. According to ANN the last thing she worked on was scenario for uta prince.

You might have read ANN wrong?

I see her listed as a scriptwriter but she's not the series composer.

It'd be quite something if she scripted a whole 2 cour show herself,I haven't seen that done in recent times.

Haven't seen the episode, but as long she as does the ojou-sama laugh right, I'll be happy. And for Sasamis character she does have a ojou aura about her...

Clannad – Spring
Air – Summer
Kanon – Winter

Should i still hang on/give up on the hope that Key’s next VN would be Autumn?
