Little Busters - Voice Actor Appreciation & Discussion
The purpose of this thread is to discuss, critique and idolize the Voice Actor cast of Little Busters. Please remember that the discussion should center on their performances as professional voice actors and not on the show content (which can be discussed in the various Episode threads). Please remember this simple rule when critiquing a VA's performance or reading another forum member's critique:

One thing I'm waiting to see on this thread are people's reactions to a certain sugary sweet individual's voice...considering I personally disliked it (being painfully familiar with the VA) and had to warm up to it over the course of the game.

I felt Horie Yui's voice didn't quite fit at first, but definitely grew on me as the episode went on. The only time it felt a bit too feminine was during the flashback (reminds me of Hanyuu ), but I guess that can't be helped.
It was nice to hear Midorikawa announce "Mission Start!" again. Love his work as Kyousuke. Same goes for Masato and Kengo's VAs. I can't wait to hear the "kinniku kinniku!" (I hope they include at least one scene with the "Play with Masato" segments) and "MAAAAAAAAN"s.

Riki sounds like a trap to me no matter how many times I try to cope with the voice. Horie Yui is my favorite VA and really loved almost all her roles and I'm positive that she'll do a great job with Riki. But...
He's already too feminine, adding Horie Yui's "whistling" voice will keep dragging him more and more towards the trap field...

The only problem with Hocchan as Riki for me is that she sounds like Hocchan. It isn't even about him sounding like a girl or a boy its just that I can hear that its Hocchan and I'm so used to her doing girls.
I actually thought her work was pretty great otherwise.

Kanon's VA was Tomokazu Sugita, what do you expect?
The only other option for Riki I could think of now is maybe KugiRie, since she did voice Alphonse. But I think Hocchan is doing an OK job so far. It's been five years now so I'm not sure, but I think Riki's tone didn't sound too different than from the novels either. Riki was indeed supposed to sound like a girl anyways.

I think he sounds an awful lot like the original Riki, I honestly have no problems with it since I loved Tamiyasu's Riki and I think I'll grow to love Horie's.
He sounds too girly? Please, he's meant to =w= People will get over it soon enough. I'm just worried about Mio's new voice. I hope it lives up to standard.

...IMO Horie Yui's acting is fine. Riki was MEANT to be feminine. Because Mio says so.
