Well, Chiaki Takashi could fit the role in her real life, by all honesty...

Out of all the seiyuu that I've seen pictures of, Takahashi-san is definitely among the most well-endowed. So, that person is right about her fitting in the role for real.

I wonder if she would rather be playing mahjong wit her Saki co-stars. It's her choice if she wanted to do such a series.

I often wonder what seiyus think when they work on shows like this. And man, Kana Ueda? Is she starving for roles or does she just not mind?

Maybe it depends if any actual nudity (nipples) is shown. Mainstream seiyuu seem to have a higher tolerance/acceptance of ecchi than hentai work.
If it's just blank boobs or teasing with no worthwhile results then I doubt anyone really cares (fans or seiyuu). For Kana Ueda it wouldn't be any different than some of the fanservicey scenes with Mii Konori in Railgun.
My guess is Japan is pretty much desensitized to ecchi anime at this point so nobody has any major problems with it. And even if some did I doubt the seiyuu would be vocal about it since it could PO fans.
I mean I don't think I've ever even read any cases where seiyuu were saddened or disappointed they were recast.
Either they're just a lot more professional about these kind of things or they're expected to have a better attitude.
Unlike some English VAs who'll complain about being recast (even if they were no good in the first place) or actresses who are huge hypocrites and will bash ecchi anime yet still work on them using aliases.

I just checked and Kana Ueda was in Sekirei, Aki Sora, Kampfer, Freezing, and others. I don't think seiyuu there have the same hang ups.

They are perfectly fine with it. It is a complete different culture. For them is not different to work in a shounen show or in a ecchi show.
Just look at the cast of Queen's Blade
Ayako Kawasumi as Leina
Mamiko Noto as Tomoe
Rie Kugimiya as Melona
Sayaka Ohara as Melpha
Do you think all this seiyuu are starving for roles?

I like how totally up front it is about it even with the title, hopefully this will be well animated since it's combining all that bikini fanservice selling power with RPG-classes action.
Impressive assortment of artists for those character designs.
Hopefully it's a fun action show.
