Did the fact that the seiyu is female really came of as a surprise? I figured it out in the first episode, without looking into the credits. Women have a very specific timbre to their voice when it is lowered so much. Men, on the other hand, usually make their voice sound a bit higher than their usual speaking voice, particularly when they want to emphasize the femininity of the character. So if it was really a guy voicing Kuranosuke, the voice would have been a bit highter.
I guess I'm used to it, then... The ending song really is nice in the form presented. I don't care much for the full version, though, and even less for the PV version... |

Umm what? I've heard her other roles in different series and whether in this show or others, I would have never guessed she was a female. In fact I thought "Kurako" sounded so manly for a girl...but yea "she" turned out to be a guy. I was seriously surprised, and not "huh really" surprise but "OMG seriously???" surprise. Saiga Mitsuki is unique in that unlike other male-voicing voice actresses, she can voice older males and still fool people. I love Paku Romi, but even she sounds weird with older boys. (During the same week I learned about Saiga Mitsuki, I found out the singer Piko, who did Tegami Bachi REVERSE's ED, is a guy. His voice sounds so much like a woman! I had a passing thought that perhaps these two switched voices... ) |

I think my major problem with this show was that it's just too damn short-I wanted at least 5 or 6 more episodes.

Also interesting- She's done it before in a previous noitaminA show. This is a small spoiler because the character is not introduced as a cross-dresser- although it's not really a huge surprise when it's revealed. spoiler[Kei Yūki in Moyashimon] |

Exactly where did the reviewer watch this? I can't find it on Crunchyroll.

I really really hope they make a second season, or at least release mangas to show whats gonna happen!
If I had a closure I would be really happy about the series, thats the only thing missing for me, I totally wanna know who is getting tsukimi's heart!! |
