I remember this, the manga got royally botched by rogue translators and corrections had to be made.

Why read manga then there's official LN translation (though, who am I asking, people are to lazy to read and prefer pretty pictures with minimum text).

Hiring female VA for Yu has a meaning behind it.

The manga adaptation of LN exists precisely for the reason that not everyone is a fan of this format, and this is normal. With the same experience, you can rebuke people for watching the anime adaptation instead of reading the original. As for Yu, Yoko Hikasa mostly voices mature or confident women, so I wonder what voice he ends up with.
