Hmm, only 3 aliases in the cast. Less than I thought there'd be.
I know who Anita Neukar and Eileen Dover really are, but this Chloe Ragnbone is a new one.
I haven't seen any of this show but based on that trailer, I'm definitely going to check it out. Sounds like a funny show.

Either this will sound surprisingly good like Haganai (aside from Jerry Jewell, everyone sounded great), or mediocre like Future Diary (too many lame idioms, and Brina just doesn't make for a convincing Yuno who).

Plots....plots everywhere.

Joking aside, the series actually looks like some stupidly good fun.

Do the Funimation VAs normally use aliases for raunchy shows?

yeah, they do, but it's very inconsistent. I guess it depends on the show. for instance, Dance in the Vampire Bund is full of them, but some of those same VA's keep their real names for other fan-servicy shows

anything changed at Funi or maybe industry wide to make that less the case here? Because Maken-ki is waaaay more raunchy than Vampire Bund.

(edit: just saw your edit about inconsistency)

Forget this series, the sequel by Hiraku Kaneko and Akio Takami will be far superior. Though, I wish Hiromitsu just went back to making more doujinshi and h-manga over this, but I suppose serialized stuff pays better. Ironically, there's not much netorare material for this manga.
