Oh aren’t the new characters cute!!!? Picture to the left is taken from the official website. Strangely enough, I actually don’t know who those two characters are…guess I focus on Sumi x Ushio too much when I read the manga! :p
So here are the seiyuu:
(a) Sumi to be voiced by Ayahi TAKAGAKI ~ I’m not familiar with her but can see that she seems to have played significant roles in Venus Versus Virus, S.A. and True Tears. More details are available here.
(b) Ushio to be voiced by Megumi TAKAMOTO ~ again, another young-ish seiyuu with few notable roles – Fullmetal Alchemist, Negima and White Album. More info here.
To me, the casting is a bit disappointing as we don’t see our usual gang of “yuri seiyuu” but then who knows what chemistry these guys may bring to the screen!?! Maybe they will be the next Hitomi! Or Mamiko!?! hahaha

The girl on the left is Kiyori Torioi, the one who’s always eating and eating in chpt 1 of the manga. The one on the right though… I feel like guessing it’s Masaki Akemiya (or rather, Akemi Mayasaki).
Yeah, hoping that the seiyuus would turn out good! I mean, the lead chars in Aoi Hana are also being voiced by new/unfamiliar seiyuus. >.<

Honestly I’m not too sure about the casting. Those two don’t really stand out to me but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Sounds like CA is quite pleased with the casting!! There’s definitely a bit of riskiness in the choice of the seiyuu – we will just have to wait and see….KYAAAAAAA!!! When are they going to give us a firm date?!?!! Aaaaaah!!!

Weee
Still without an official date??? What about a trailer??? Arghhh too much to wait!!!! Mmmm i don´t know either of them XD is a shame that we didn´t get our “yuri gang” for this anime, but I guess we can give them a chance XD we´ll see…. Oh, and Girlfriends 23 is out since yesterday at MakiMaki =D

One of them was in white album?? Gosh I was disappointed by that series… I thought it was a story about a boy dating and idol, but I found out it’s based off of an eroge. So it’s about a boy who attacts 50 billion girls while trying to keep his infidelity secret…

@Sleepy
Agree! I’m also looking more forward to Sasameki Koto!
@Tessa
Really? Still sounds loads better than School Days. I have White Album but haven’t gotten around to watching it yet cuz I heard there’ll be a season 2. Guess I shouldn’t get my expectations up for this series.

I heard about White Album – I wasn’t impressed by the storyline…

alu – where are you downloading candy boy 8 from?

Nerei… It wasn’t much better than school days… and I get the feeling that season 2 will head more to that direction. It’s basically school days before everybody started going crazy in episodes 10+.
I really really hate harem animes/mangas.

Not good.. not good… that’s not good… I hated School Days.
Harem animes/mangas are nice, if they contain yuri. Think of KonoSetsu in Negima. I’m willing to watch that series even if it contained 99% of Negima crap for that 1% of KonoSetsu love.
