Yuu Aoi? As Megumi? That's...awesome. One of my favourite film actresses, and a pretty big name. I still have reservations but this is definitely something I want to at least check out.

Isn't Megumi supposed to be older? Or at least look older?

Older in the context of the show. In the manga, Megumi looks like already a grown woman, to contrast with the other girls. The actress looks a bit youngerly and girly for that womanly part (unless that's an old photo).

they're casting with age it seems, everyone except sato is pretty much the age of their character, give or take a year.
