I love most of the series from Ribon like Sugar Soldier, Hiyokoi, Sakurahime Kaden, Crash etc. but this doesn't interest me.
Good news for fans of the series but I wish it had been Sugar Soldier instead. <3

Why have I never heard of this before? I love Ribon/shoujo manga and I love doggie woggies so you'd think I'd be all over this. Anyway, Rie Kugimiya has such a cute little voice, the puppy she plays will be the most adorable thing ever!

my brain just imploded rie mainly does female mc roles calling the male mc a baka inu. So now she is going to be dog "inu"... I think that I need to lay down a bit.

Wow this pisses me off. Should have been Sakurahime Kaden instead!!

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Chocotan is one of the most mediocre series in Ribon! It's fluff. Harmless fluff but......unmemorable fluff all the same. >_> (yes, I've read it)

Kugimiya cannot act to save her life and she's only "good" at doing tsundere roles (and she sucks at doing THOSE too) so I'm not sure why they got her to voice a role in this.

Clearly you've never watched the sub of Full Metal Alchemist. Rolling Eyes

Kugimiya is VERY talented.

All it took was one view of Persona 4 in Japanese to let me know that Kugimiya cannot act. Her role as Rise was so ear-piercing I never wanted to hear her again.

I think you mean the 9th compiled volume... amazon jp says that the 8th volume was released in March.

If you give up it's rie, she can act just fine she just gets stuck with otaku roles.

For all the people whining about how it should have been this or that title they would've preferred, you may have missed the following line:

"The Ribon Festa 2013 event will show the anime next spring."

This implies that it's just another one of the shorts Ribon does occasionally, not a movie or a TV show. If you've never seen any of them, there's barely enough time to introduce the characters, much less do anything interesting with the plot.

I love shoujo, especially shoujo from Ribon, so I guess checking this out won't hurt!

Oh yes, this I figured. I am still annoyed that the far better Ribon series did not even get shorts. =_=

.........wow. Judging from one role a seiyuu has one time in one scene....yes, no doubt that is the best way to do it. Rolling Eyes
