Umineko Anime: “Banquet of the Golden Witch” casting rumors

By way of Moogy, who found this 4chan thread a few hours ago:

Well, Junko Minagawa as Virgilia would be a perfect choice, but then…

My (obvious) reaction:

Bernkastel is probably behind this.

Also, Moogy’s comment on the issue:

<Moogy> ronove isn’t koyasu
<Moogy> obviously fake
<Moogy> right? ;_;

We can only hope, my friend. We can only hope.

UPDATE: Once again, DEEN proves to be the better troll. They cast Tomokazu Sugita as Ronove. I mean… what? A Kyonove? I don’t even know how to feel about that. At least Kikuko Inoue as Virgilia is an even more perfect choice than the previously rumored Junko Minagawa the perfect choice, and casting little Miyoko from Higurashi as Lambdadelta just feels… correct. DEEN’s bait-and-troll tactics are scary.

ps. Cue Itsukittler x Kyonove jokes/shops.
ps2. On a second thought, Sugita is the closest one can get to Koyasu without picking Koyasu himself (I almost got them mixed up on NEEDLESS), so… well, there’s not too many episodes left to learn how this is going to work out.

Battler…

DREAD OF THE MOTHERF***ING GRAVE!!!!!

Bah, I haven’t even watched this week’s episode. Blah blah blah Rosa is one hell of a mother etc. Next week is when the novel becomes truly awesome, and it never looks back. I mean, this is THE song, the one that makes you go \o/ over Battler for being such an awesome big-mouthed bastard. I can’t wait for next week.

ps. Asmo-chan!!!

Umineko Anime Ep. 7 Preview

Haha, what’s up with this show’s previews? Last week’s was kinda lame, but this one made me chuckle. Anyways, expect to see what an awesome mother Rosa is next week.

ps. Don’t really feel like talking about this week’s episode just yet. The show has its big flaws, but it’s still watchable (and floating Beato was sort of amusing).
