So the heroines in Otome games do not have voice actors? Sorry, never played one, even during my childhood time in Japan.

Would be soooo awesome to have the heroine voiced by a guy, while we at it.

Hmmm. Why Naomi Shindoh is the only one that doesn't have a link to her ANN profile in the article?
person#7665

Anyway, surprised that there's no character, voiced by Romi Paku.

Yeah, Otome game heroines are Rarely voiced except for games by Karin Entertainment who always gives the heroine a voice, or Adult games. It's really rare for them to be voiced otherwise.

I find Kurone to be the coolest male of them all with his androgynous appearance. Wink

I wonder if this affects the fans because usually they're also ogling the seiyuu.

I'm excited though. Takeuchi, Minagawa, and Kaida in one otoge, must be worth checking out.

Ayakashi Gohan's heroine (by creator: honeybee) is also voiced.
Also, Mitsuki Saiga voiced one of the boys in Norn+Nonette.

A minute there, I thought we're going to get another "otome"ish game where the girls are dressed up as boys just like that Takarazuka project that was announced months ago (I can't recall the name of that one).

aw yesss I've been waiting for this!
hope it comes to the west haha

I had a feeling Minagawa Junko would be casted, but I'm surprised Romi Park isn't, despite her voicing so many young men Surprised

Most of them sound distinctively similar tho but maybe thats just me.

oh nice, I had been interested in Psychedelica but I didn't know the Heroine was voiced in that one. It's really nice when the Heroines are voiced~ I wish more games were like that.
