So does any one know the voice cast yet? The trailer that has been showing on AS sounded like Vic and Laura Bailey are voicing the main characters.

The only reason and I mean only reason I am giving this show a chance is because I heard Vic's voice acting. I really like Vic work in Big Windup, so I'll give this series a try.

This may or may not fail. I wish it was at an earlier time slot. I understand that AS doesn't care about kids watching (to them, it's probably just some extra viewers), but a show like this is aimed at a younger crowd. Not only is there a chance that adults will be hitting the sack by 12:30 AM, but a lot of kids won't be up watching TV. It's fine if AS doesn't want to depend on youngsters for viewing, but in this case it seems important to give kids an option. Put it early enough and they'll watch it before heading to bed.

I don't think Vic was in Big Windup!. We're talking about Vic Mignogna, correct?

My mistake, I was multitasking when I wrote that and made a mistake. There is a reason I don't multitask often and that is because I occasionally make mistakes.

Greg Ayres is who I was thinking about though. And your right, Vic (to my knowledge) wasn't involved in Big Windup. Don't quote me on that since I've only seen four episodes thus far.

Was it just me or was anyone else not a fan of Laura Bailey and Vic Mignogna's performances as Tokine and Yoshimora respectively? I mean Laura's performance was okay I guess, but I guess I just always imagined Tokine had a bit more of a mature voice (which I know Laura is capable of going deeper), so we'll see. Vic on the other hand I thought was a complete miscast. Don't get me wrong, I love the guy and I love him in other roles like Edward in FMA and Tamaki in Ouran, but he just doesn't work as Yoshi. Unfortunately Vic's voice isn't very dynamic so more times than not he'll sound like a variation of his Edward Elric voice. Now every time I watch it I won't be able to take his character seriously :? Oh well.

So does any one know the voice cast yet?
