Quoting portions of my post, MOON PHASE Miscellaneous Notes: Sekirei Animation Decision?, dated December 21, 2007, 04:40 AM GMT, on a Sekirei manga thread at another forum...
Sekirei Favorite Character Poll on AtWiki Japan
Ayako Kawasumi's voice fits the naive Musubi. Sayaka Ohara's fits the oneesama Miya Asama. Rie Tanaka's voice fits the tsundere Tsukiumi. Rie Tanaka's short tempered Tsukiumi sounds like Suigintou and Tomoe Marguerite in constant angry road rage mode (minus the evil and the villainy). That alone should attract the many devoted, if not fanatical, Suigintou fanboys in Japan. Because she and her voice have become so closely associated with Suigintou, a character she has made famous and popular, anime fans inside of Japan - and, for that matter, outside of Japan - often refer to Rie Tanaka as Suigintou or as Gin-sama, Suigintou's nickname. Even though a new Rozen Maiden anime has not aired on Japanese television in well over a year and a third series or a third season of the popular Rozen Maiden television anime series has yet to be announced, as I have documented elsewhere on the Internet, Suigintou remains popular. Radio personality Suigintou hosts a highly successful hit internet radio show in Japanese, Suigintou no Koyoi mo Ennu~i (Suigintou's It's Ennui Again, Tonight). The Suigintou no Koyoi mo Ennu~i Web Radio Vol. 4 CD, starring Rie Tanaka as Suigintou, goes on sale April 23, 2008 in Japan. However... Aniplex reportedly got the domain, http://www.sekirei-tv.com/ Frontier Works produces the Sekirei drama CD. Googling Aniplex and Frontier Works together, as far as I can tell, shows no connection between these two companies on any anime. Because of that lack of connection, some Japanese fans believe that there will be wholesale changes in the cast from the Sekirei drama CD to the Sekirei anime. On the other hand, Googling Aniplex and Seven Arcs (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha series; Inukami! TV series and movie) together, as far as I can tell, shows no connection between these two companies on any anime prior to Sekirei. In addition, YOUNG GANGAN official website's introduction page for the Sekirei manga lists the Sekirei television animation announcement next to and just above the Sekirei drama CD cast list. So hope remains for the Sekirei drama CD cast being at least partly retained for the Sekirei anime. We will see. In any case, the Sekirei anime should do well in Japan with the fighting girls and the T & A a la Ikkitousen. And, true to her background of creating BL/yaoi manga and doujin, Sakurako Gokurakuin's Sekirei also features the ultimate trap, a Sekirei who suffers from gender identity confusion and is either a male changing sex to female, a futanari (hermaphrodite), or whatever else you can think of.

You're right. That could be a sign that Seven Arcs might retain at least part of the cast from the Sekirei drama CD for the Sekirei anime. |

The drama cd lineup is pretty much perfect and Tsukiumi > all.

To those that dont know, prepared to be boobed. Becuse, well, basicly thats all there is, not that im complanning. It just that, it took me almost 20 chapters to actualy get into the storyline of this manga, becuse i had almost no idea what the hell was going on. But ya, boobs to the max for sekirei.
