> Yoko Hikasa as slightly tsundere team papa Yagami,
> Ai Kayano playing a very womanly character as she does best,
> Yuzu from Sakura Trick's VA as Hajime,
> and a bunch of new seiyuu get big roles.
> plus, K-On! OST's composer
Sounds good!

Yoko Hikasa (K-On)

Fixed, to credit her for an anime that isn't complete garbage :)


Also, really EXCITED to see Hyakkoku Hajime doing the music. Love his style.

As a person who read the manga, i hope the pacing is better than the manga.

I always imagined Aoba having Ari Ozawa's voice, but Yuuki Takada being Aoba's voice is a nice choice too. Her role as Rin from Aikatsu! was good. :)

If Hajime Hyakkoku is in it I know that at least the soundtrack will be good.

Interesting, very interesting.
I haven't really watched anything with half the cast in it but otherwise it looks good and/or promising.

Was on my PTW since it was first announced "ages ago" anyway.
