Ok I've just seen the WK seiyuu for the 1st time...

jennwenn · 17-11-2002, 11:44 PM

I've just seen the WK seiyuu (not in person of course) in a raw copy of the special "Behind the Scenes" that aired with the first episode of Weiss Kreuz Gluhen.

Ummm......Why do people think the voice actors are hot? Frankly, I like imagining the characters WITHOUT seeing the real faces behing the voice. *shudder* This is totally ruining my...uh....daydreams.

Koyasu Takehito is NOT NOT NOT as good-looking as his fanbase led me to believe. God I feel betrayed! I would rather stare at the new WK character designs than the real thing! But I won't totally diss these guys, because they are people too and I can't expect them to live up to fictional bishounen.

hehehe i remember when I first saw them, and from what I had heard before I did they were supposed to be the cutest things on the planet...sadly in my opinion no they arent! Too each their own i guess!

heerogf · 27-11-2002, 01:38 PM

i thought they weren't kewl as first too, but...

god help me, they're KEWL!! mostly because of their personality and voice, but omg, i love this piccie!! maybe not michi, but definitely koyasu and seki, seki is my the kewtest!!! and hiro!!

i mean, if i see these guys on the street randomly, i would not think they're hot obviously, but i can't help it, i love them too much to say they're anything but kewl!!!

i dunno somethin about them rubs me the wrong way

jennwenn · 28-11-2002, 12:19 PM

Yeah, but that's an incredibly posed, stylized picture. They don't look half-bad in it. But still - no. See them in the street and they are NOT like that. I don't know, I mean they're voice actors. If they were super hot, they'd be film stars or something. (But then they're pop stars or something right? So its all personality I guess.

) Anyway, that phenomena just passes me by.

Speaking of seiyuu, so what do the new characters seiyuu look like? Any improvement, or would we be better off sticking to fictional character designs?

heerogf · 28-11-2002, 01:12 PM

i guess it must have something to do with asian pictures online, because alot of super hot asian guys have really bad pictures online, rarely do u ever find a good one

yeh, weiss is an actual music group, a popular one at that ^^

i take it u prolly don't like the shcwartz seiyuu too, shuldich's seiyuu and brad's are also in their own music group EMU

I think brad's seiyuu is pretty kewl ^__^

He has to be good-looking to have fans, is that what you're saying?

I admit that I don't think he is very handsome either. But I really, really love his voice. You could just close your eyes and not look at him when he's on the screen... although that only works if you speak Japanese.

Yes, it is. Who would be lying on a wooden floor like that? That has to hurt... it definitely doesn't look very comfortable.

Nice shoes, Koyasu...

Actually, I haven't seen them.

Yeah, that's what I assumed...

Well at least he CAN sing. I'd rather have an not-so-good-looking person who sings well than a hot one who sounds like crap. And he SHOULD sound awesome, he's a seiyuu! I gotta admit, I too love his voice.

It sounds sexy, but the sexiness stops there IMOP. But just my opinion.

Yes, it is. Who would be lying on a wooden floor like that? That has to hurt... it definitely doesn't look very comfortable.

Nice shoes, Koyasu...

Yep.

heerogf · 29-11-2002, 11:04 PM

Hey, if you find any, do share. I need to see this!

dheu · 30-11-2002, 07:46 PM

Hey, nevermind. It sounded like fun, so I went searching on my own...

And man, are there some disturbing pics out there of him.

Here are a bunch of websites that I gleefully stole... errr, borrowed... these pics from:

Creepy.
