(L) Strike Witches 2

Given Lynette's seiyuu has already gotten married, I'm guessing the staff is willing to recast someone new to replace her. Just for that, I now have no interest in watching the movie at all.

According to Nazuka Kaori-san's blog, she's still been active with Strike Witches. ADR stuff is done in the early production phase anyway. She's also been busy dubbing over foreign dramas.

Lately though, she's been pumping Strike Witches Ticket Information. This has been going on for the past few months now.

I've... never heard of marriage being a cause to quit voice work before.

Work usually slows down once the seiyuu starts settling down even more like pregnancy. Which is what eventually happened to Chiba Saeko. Seiyuu agencies usually prefer them single and some of the time they sign contracts that prevent them from getting into relationships since they think it will "interfere" with their career (promotional events, etc.) However, an agency won't kick married seiyuu out to the curb. There are plenty of married Seiyuu still signed on to their agencies.

However in Nazuki's case, she's actually a freelance Seiyuu (there's actually quite a few of them). And this is actually a good thing since it means that she doesn't have some silly clause or policy to follow.

According to her stats Nazuki-san turned 26 in April and she got married in February so she probably attempted to do what us typical asians do LOL...looks like she made just in time for the "Christmas Cake" phase.

How many of you enjoy ogitsune(ankakecya-han) doujins/fanart of strike witches?

I really don't care about the seiyuu change as long as the replacement does a good job. The transition from Saeko Chiba to Saori Seto was practically not noticeable.

Although somehow I hope the fanbase (at least from Japan) won't be as nutcase as some of those in K-ON or Haruhi.. It's really a painful to see pictures of destroyed character goods just because some of them found out the seiyuu for those titles already have a boyfriend and stuff like that...

Unless, they're trolling, an expensive form of trolling.. LOL



Regarding Ogitsune's, I do like his doujins specially the 1991 Gulf Neuroi stuff. Although he/she could use improvement on the anatomy/proportion side. Some of them (especially the earlier ones) looked like them have very short spinal columns.. But hey I also suck at drawing so yeah.. ignore ^^

Although some people disliked Ogitsune's works. It was pretty apparent in some imageboard that I was looking at.


Who knows this illustrator would somehow catch Humikane's attention and let him/her do some sort of semi-canon doujin like what Takeshi Nogami does...

Wait. You mean Ogitsune had the blessing of the original creator? That's great!

No, not yet.. ^^

Something I've noticed as SW2 aired, that there was a lack of discussion regarding the second season compared to season 1. Though the way it turned out, I can't say I'm all that surprised, especially after reading this...

Almost sums up my opinion about SW2.

question about the movie..

is miyafuji in it?

The most crap thing about sw2 miyafuji loses all her powers just by using that sword once, while that other girl used it for out the entire s2

Judging by the posters and whatnot, yeah, I think Miyafuji will be returning for the movie. She is the star of the 501st JFW series. And I definitely agree with you on that. That more than anything else killed the series because Sakamoto stole it.

They want to learn English.

This sort of amuses me, being that the R1 releases haven't come out yet. Perhaps, the cast had just finished the dubbed version and have contributed it to not only the to-be-release Funimation version but to the Japanese BDs as well. But, then again, this is Funimation we're talking about. Granted, I'm big a fan of the series, that I spent about $60 on the complete first season. But given the way this second series went, I'm not going to bother spending a dime for such a half-ass second season (if you could even call it that.) Emo Sakamoto isn't worth it.

Let's hope the movie becomes so good to the point where we could forget SW2 ever happened.

Funimation: Alright, we've finished the dub. And we want to release the show on Blu-ray, too.
Kadokawa: That's funny. We're just about to release our BD box. So, you're gonna have to wait until after it's released, because we're afraid of reverse importation.

I am tempted to buy the JP BD box, but with my current financial situation I really can't afford it. I hope the US BD doesn't take too long to get Japanese permission, though. I can't wait to rewatch the show.

I found this at Strike Witches wikia. It's the timeline of the Strike Witches universe.

I manage to get Vol 1 to 3 of the Witches of the Sphinx doujins. And i most say, i'm enjoying these doujins very much. Now to find the 1943 photo book, the Witches of Africa Comic Collection and volume 4 of the Sphinx doujin.
