That scene of Nanami breaking down was excellent. I had been lukewarm about her seiyuu until then. Nakatsu Mariko is 29, and has already had a career as a TV actress and personality. Her first big voice role was as Erika in
Ginga e no Kickoff, which is continuing.
I don't blame that other aspiring seiyuu for getting so upset. She was suffering, and she was right. It was a lesson for Nanami.
I like Nanami, and I like Mashiro. Kind of fun not to be able to ship anyone here. Nanami is realizing she can't keep Sorata away from Mashiro, but I don't think she's giving up on him. Quite the contrary. And why not? He's treating her very well. I look forward to seeing all these characters evolve. Her conversation with her tiger was fairly amazing.
