They pretty much picked the right choices for Yota & Azusa. Yota's seiyuu has a history of voicing perverted male characters. Azusa's seiyuu has a voice that fits for a "upper class" character

Agreed. What's this loli seiyuu doing voicing the stone-faced buxom?

The voice she's using is not "loli"

Saw various previews of this show at various conventions this year already. Definitely looking forward to this as it's quite funny with an amazing starting cast to boot.

Protip: Hentai does not mean porn.

No, "hentai" means "pervert" or "perverted".

@Ambimunch

As far as I remember the story in the first japanese volume (which I sold afterwards because the story and premise disappointed me), it`s a harmless comedy with hardly any nudity and no explicit sex scenes at all.

No, "hentai" means "pervert" or "perverted".

Do you have a beef with fans using japanese words in their fandom speak when the words get a different meaning?

You may want to check the original post, my response, and the title of the show in question, and then it might dawn on you the context of this discussion.

In this context, the western fandom's colloquial use of "hentai" is completely irrelevant.
