Before anyone pulls the sexist card, I think that the female seiyuu pool is large enough that they would make a similar magazine for them. I think that if they are to such a magazine, it would be in the best interests of the publishers to make one for female seiyuu. With this, both sexes get represented.

I'm just impressed that there is a market big enough to specialize beyond "voice actors in general"

I don't mind this at all
I wouldn't mind a unisex magazine for rookie seiyuu though.

I love Mamoru Miyano. I think he looks much better in person than in pictures.

Geh! As if I needed another magazine to keep tabs on....... No one in the inaugural issue that makes me need to buy it though.

To be perfectly honest though, aside from Pick-Up Voice where it's sort of 50/50 and sometimes leans towards more male seiyuu, magazines like SeiGura and Seiyuu Animedia predominantly feature female seiyuu.

There used to be a digital English version of PUV but it didn't catch on and only a few issues were ever released. **Assuming by "American version" you meant an English language version and not a male North American VA magazine.

Definately agree. Though, Japan has been over saturated with just photo books of female Idols and Seiyu, let alone actual magazines, for decades.They usually lack substance >_>" I know Idols are different, but its super common for VAs to become idols, and the media promoting them is very similar. Its nice to see some in depth media with a spotlight on male VA's :3 |

Now just let them do photo shoot wearing swimsuits and it'll be equal.

How many readers would they get for cute female seiyuu in swimsuits?

If the magazine is/will be aimed prominently at females, then very few, I would assume.

Gah!! I want this!! If only, you know, If only I can read it because this is my kind of magazine. Kaji Yuki~<3
I hope that Nojima Kenji will make it to the magazine (maybe after they get through all the super hottest hit seiyuu), but hopefully not too late either. This guy really need to appear more in magazine, and especially have more photoshoots. I simply adore his voice so very much!!
