(L) Omamori Himari [Manga]

[JagdPanther]

Ah.... I love this manga.

I'm not sold on Kuesu yet, though. Don't really like her character too much. All about Himari, IMO.

[Chaos2Frozen]

I don't know, Kuesu was pretty cute last chapter

[Nemesis]

i had an random thought that what if Kuesu had Sugintou's VA.

How unfitting.

Kuesu didn't really have a good first impression on me... and her character design isn't in my tastes either. So I doubt I'll ever like her...

serenade is so serious went it comes to girls

[Nemesis]

meh, anyway, i hope an OM anime wont be like the R+V anime.

btw,there should be one part where Yuuto should be thinking about who he has feelings for, Im sick of indecisiveness lol.

[Chaos2Frozen]

Surprisingly, we still have not reached the point in the story where the hero have to make that kind of decision.

For the matter, why can't he have all of them?

[Klashikari]

That would hardly match his personality so *cough*

As such, Yuuto have displayed pretty much many hints and clues of decision and whatnot with Himari. I just hope that Kuesu and her sudden "Yuu-chan" trend won't begin to change the wind like a weather cock.

Who knows? 20 chapters ago I certainly never thought I would see him with a gar look

Besides, can you see any of the other girls backing off ?

As much as I love Himari, I don't want a sure win scenario. This series have too much potential for fun to just let it settle like that. Tsundere-Kuesu would bring something else to the table

And Rinko has to do her best too !

From chapter 21 I somehow got the feeling she's more on the yandere side, she may not be shy but hell can she get violent (I'm especially refering to her wanting to stab Yuuto, no i don't believe she just intended to make him release his power) when things aren't working out as she wants. I know she doesn't have all the typical traits but I see even less tsundere potential. Well I guess in the end she will be neither but another kind and gentle harem member, they all soften once taken in

[Klashikari]

Kuesu is hardly in the yandere side (It seems the term is really often mistakenly used as a girl going violent).

A yandere is a character being extremely gentle at first, but suddenly goes psychotic and really brutal.

In romance case, they are so fluffy and in love, but then in frustration or obsession, at some point, they can do irrationally violent acts against their love interest and/or their surrounding (Ironically, much like tsundere, you can have a male yandere, though that would be very scary).

Kuesu is hardly blindly in love and that "love sick", so it would be really difficult for her to fill the criteria.

The moment she tries to deny her feelings with cover-ups, she's a tsundere.

A yandere is what Klashikari described.

why is this thread popular again btw?

Yep, your post made me reread some definitions (it's not that I doubt your knowledge ) and I gotta admit I was wrong. Yanderes seem to be too special to just take one criteria out of it to declare a character to be one. Anyway that still doesn't make me see her more tsundere, I hardly doubt this will change for me anytime soon given her seducing introduction throwing kisses on Yuuto like it is nothing. Sure this may change but for now my first impression is still stronger.

Well, she might not be a full-fletch Tsundere, but she definitely displayed that trait in chap 21.

Then again, what she wanted to say was kinda awkward

Hey now, please don't rain on my first successful thread.

[Nemesis]

Meh, this manga used to be pushed down into the second page by now at this kind of times with no new chapters.Im kinda used to reviving it from there.........

btw, any differences in the novel from the manga

[Avisch]

Couldn't tell from reading the Japanese wikipedia article (using a rough translator) it's a a small article aswell.

And yeah. Don't rain on his thread! This manga is the omega of simple and enjoyable.

Rinko: Yukari Tamura
Shizuku: Kugimiya Rie (If you watched Rosario Vampire you will know what I mean.)
Lizlet: Yuko Goto
Kuesu: Tanaka Rie (Admit it, you saw that coming. )

Good choice with Liz. For some reason she unconciously screams Yuko Goto. To me even Mai Goto would be a good choice.

Rinko...I could imagine a bunch of seiyu for her. But Yukarin is a good choice.

Ayako Kawasumi does fit with the oujo-sama approach.

Kugumiya could work for Shizuku, but I always imagine a lower voice (particularly Asuka Tanii who voiced Kiri in Zetsubo Sensei) but Kugumiya has shown she can do lower voices (she did play a guy in Nabari no Ou)

I did see Tanaka Rie there. I'm a fan of her and her roles.

Ueda Kana needs a role here though.

Choosing/Predicting seiyu is fun

Yeah. The recent chapters have definitely shown her to be very rational (as opposed to just very strong with her anti-ayakashi manner).

don't know if anyone thought this was notable but....

Spoiler for small detail:

Kuesu as a child was wearing Japanese clothing(?)
But now she wears Western clothes.

Was it implied that she went abroad to learn spells and such?

Oh yeah. I like Kuesu BTW.

Yeah, her family is looked down upon by the other 10 clans for using foreign magic.

But I just can't see her doing Rinko's violent-comedy outbust

I think Ueda Kana fits better...

I don't think it's a lower voice, rather than a calm, rational voice.

Oh, don't forget Shizuku's seducing personality
