Honestly seems pretty good to me. But I'm worried about the following two:-

1. Music: Moeki Harada ; His profile includes 0 animes, means he's a new/less experienced composer and I don't know why they selected him because music is one of the most important part of a good adaptation. Hopefully he does his job well.
2. Rintarou Tsumugi: Yoshinori Nakayama ; He's a VA/seiyuu with very less experience, selecting him as the VA of MC is a bold move. Hopefully he lands on his role.
Other than that, everyone seems decent/great to me.
Also, worried about about Clover works (a hit or miss studio)..... they're releasing Bunny girl senpai along with this in the upcoming summer. Fingers crossed.

Same with most people I am not a big fan of Kaoruko VA but will probably get used to it so I care more about the staff actually.

You are the first person I have seen across multiple platforms to mention music, I thought I was the only one. Music is so important and they basically got a nobody, but the cast is basically nobodies save one or two, so it makes me wonder if they have no budget or if this project prioritizes connections over talent. I am not even sure if I can trust the Akebi director to take on something like Kaoru Hana. I have no faith in the staff but the author trusts them so I hope they prove me wrong.

@The_Best_Tastes Giving new blood major roles is way more frequent than you can imagine, and we're talking about Aniplex here, one of the biggest companies in anime production, who could well have chosen any big name here. Seems way more likely that this was just Kuroki's decision through casting than something as vague as "no budget".

What does one thing have to do with the other? Kuroki is an incredible director, and I don't see what about Akebi would be seem as a negative to say this.

We have only seen the bright side of kaoruko in the PV so that's why you think like that

but she is a voice actor with a good range so you can expect good from her.

she is the daughter of the legendary VA Inuoe Kikuko so she is pretty good dw

She will be in this season pretty muchby 5th episode or so

they will probably announce it later, maybe an event just before broadcast

if they get a radio show, maybe in that. like grand blur announced new cast in their radio show on YT live

Everyone seems perfect to me but Kaoruko's va, when I read the manga the voice I imagined was completely different, the va isn't bad at all, obviously when you read something you set your own expectations and interpretations on how the characters sound, but I actually like it. But I wasn't expecting such a high voice for her, everyone else is perfect is exactly how I'd think they'd sound

I think everyone does fit into there roles. We obviously have to wait and see how the anime and the VA's turn out, but I was satisfied with every single VA. The author had a play in who was going to take which part as well so I trust the author's choices. In terms of Music, that is true that they did choose Moeki Harada and while he is less experienced in anime, he's responsible for a lot of other works, specifically gaming such as Fate Grand Order and Infinite Nikki. It's just his first time doing anime music so I'm sure he can deliver some great tracks.

just because the music composer worked on 0 anime's doesn't mean he's new, he's worked on Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, Arknights, Genshin Impact, Fate Grand Order, NIKKE, Knives Out, Infinity Nikki, and The Song of Seeds

Kaoruko’s voice was disappointing, personally hoped for something less squeaky and high pitched. Hopefully other elements are gonna save this!

A more deeper voice would suit her personality/character perfectly.

I always imagine her with like a megumi Han from ore monogatari type voice in my head for her tbh so I don’t mind it ,it’s just I genuinely don’t recognize any of the cast besides saku and i thought that maybe junichi sawabe would voice rintaro ngl

I would understand if the side characters get a newish VA . But WTF , why would they chose these people. It's one of the most anticipated romance anime.
It should have been more famous VA. When I read manga I always imagine that

Kaoruku's VA = Iwami Manaka who voice Akane (Oshi no Ko) and Tooru (Fruits Basket) , The angelic, friendly, and soft-toned voice
Rintarou's VA = Kobayashi, Chikahiro who voice Legoshi (Beastars) , A strong-accented, deep-toned voice of a tall man
Subaru's VA = Hanamori Yumiri who voice Hayasaka Ai (Kaguya-sama) and Sagiri (Jigokuraku) , A girl’s voice with a manly tone

So disappoited that it's not even close to my expectation.

My opinions does not matter if they do a good job at delivering the lines I don't care how the voices sound I just want them to convey those damn emotions I felt during my time with the manga 😭
I am still excited, not so much disappointed at the casting ofc also a bit scared because those non manga readers can always have ways to trash the anime
Talking back about our Waguri, it's just don't feel right , her character is energetic a positive energy ball xdd, who wears those dress somewhat so what people calls cute plenty cute. I'm rather more concerned about Subaru's VA than Kaoruko

bruh I'm not worried about the music, it's Moeki Harada's debut so let's see his talent. even great composers like Hiroyuki Sawano and Yuki Kajiura had 0 music on their profile someday and started with something. and I don't think they're choosing him for no reason they probably chose him for his talent we don't know more than them so let's just wait and see I'm very positive we're about to see a great musical debut.
