Yay! Finally, the show I’ve been talking about for like… a year is ready! Isn’t it strange how when we announce something months in advance, everybody seems to want to pick it up?
The only unfortunate thing is it is confirmed to only be 12 episodes and an OVA. T_T
Poll time. When you hear KugiRie, who do you hear? Shana? Louise? Nagi? Taiga? Alphonse? Nina Trinity? Someone else? I’m curious. I always hear Shana.
720p: Urusai urusai urusai! [DDL]
480p: Tsun tsun dere tsun~ [DDL]
Shana, Louise, Nagi for me? xD
Thanks for the release!
Personally for me it depends on how into character she is in the series. She has done so many that its is hard to keep track. sometimes its all of them sometimes its just the one. but usually for me its Taiga from Toradora.
Kagura from Gintama.
I hear a loli
I hear Louise. Probably because I watched the first two seasons of Zero no Tsukaima before any of the other shows.
when she speaks, i hear shana. especially when she starts shouting.
Is it just me or is the character design of Kinji Tooyama exactly the same as Ayumu Aikawa from Kore wa Zombie desu ka. With different hair color and same voice actor lol.
I hear Kamyu from Utawarerumono for some odd reason.Lol
Usually, Louise/Shana, since those are the ones I watched first and are the best in my opinion.
Which isn’t to say that I don’t love Nagi/Rose/Chika/Mio/etcetcetc
My god, I love her voice.
Also, glad I didn’t watch this from UTW yet, didn’t know you guys were doing it. I love Chihiro subs, you guys do all the best stuff.
I want more ZKC ;_;
Aoi-han ;_;
Shana is mai favu char of all time but Louise, Taiga and Nagi are uber awesome aswell!! Aria is joining them =]
LOL, this show has some crazy fansubbers’ competition.
I wonder if you did this together with your friendly neighborhood : Doki?
Shana is da best! I hope they will make season 3 after this. The novel has progressed far anyway.
Who else but my waifu Taiga would i hear? An? those im not opposed to hearing kagura.
All I hear is a whiny bitch.
Always Nagi. A.k.a. a whiny bitch.
I was waiting for this release, but UTW surprise us with a release, so I’m sorry I have go with UTW subs instead.
Shana, Nagi, Kagura >:l
Looks like we’re gonna need a poll for this!
I can’t unhear Taiga. Reading the novels only emphasized that.
Nagi-chan ^_^
It was after watching Hayate that I deliberately began to seek out her other characters. “Watching 4 teh Rei” was the only reason I saw Zero no Tsukaima.
Hmm… I would have to say…
Whenever I hear “Kugimiya Rie” my mind thinks about, either Louise or Matsudaira Touko. The best roles she’s had, in my opinion. 🙂
Anyhow, thanks for the release (and, finally!).
Generally I hear Shana. Sometimes it could be someone else, but 95% if the time Shana. Now if you asked me Shana vs Shana-tan is something I would have to think about more.
Either Satsuki from Routes (and you have no clue who she is) or Haruka from Ryuu ga Gotoku (i.e. Yakuza).
Definitely Louise. Most of KugiRie’s roles are lolis… and mostly dere
<3 Kugimiya
Defiantly hear taiga the most with some shana sneaking in.
Changes from appearance to appearance. Here I heard Louise.
Although I watched Toradora before I watched SnS, I always hear Shana the first, and sometimes then Toradora. And then I think “Hey, it’s Rie Kugimiya!”
aah
a must show, thanks chihiro
THANK YOU ALL
I hear shana + taiga + nagi, lol
Kugimiya Rie!!!!!
Woo new anime goodness! Chihiro ftw.
I think of Mizore Shirayuki <3! =D
Taiga all the way~
Since I’m only just now watching Hayate, I’m definitely hearing Nagi, but I also definitely think of my 2 favorite Rie Kugimiya characters…Shana and Louise :3
Normally Shana.
Probably because of this damn video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhSZudPWsJM
FML
ALWAYS
Always hear Nagi, Hayate <3*
shana and nagi
nagi=shana=louise.
I had watched her on other shows but those lolie voice of her are all the same that it’s easy to learn it’s her who voiced them.
Taiga and Rise
@Valkern
I thought exactly the same. The voice actor is the same and the character design was so similar I kept thinking Black-Haired Ayumu throughout the whole episode. It’s also crazy that he played Ryuuji in Toradora just as Rie played Taiga in that same series.
Anyways, when I hear Rie’s voice, through the typical characters she plays (loli tsunderes), I always see Shana or Nagi, except with different hair color and styles. Why? Well, they all kinda look the same for some reason. Go figure.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but thiis animu is at the top of my list for this season. This first ep. was so badass because of the animation……oh and the cast and characters are just perfect!
Just your voice, Kristen. Especially if there’s gunfire and bombs in the background.
Shana for me, although I’m more into Zero no…
definitely shana
I always seem to hear Shana, Nina, Rose and Mizore for some strange reason.
Shana for me. O.o Thanks for the subs.
Usually Louise from zero or shana because those were the first kugimiya shows i saw, it always brings me back to them when i hear her voice. I love her tsundere characters no one can out tsundere her. Infact i always look up her shows first each season and put them at the top of my list (dont matter what genre or show it is ill watch it). Thanks for this wonderful show
Koboshi. :3
Louise. That pink hair makes that character stand out. next would probably taiga.
I’m the same, all i can hear is Shana-chan!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope the third season comes out in october like i heard
I like her and loved a lot of anime with her but she doesn’t fit in here….
and by da way do i hear the zombie guy in here lol
Either Shana or Bell ( from MÄR is anyone remembers). Of course I got Taiga, Kamyu, Rosé, Kei, Shannon, Daichi and all the others in the back of my head
i simply hear TEH RIE because they are cartoons, not your waifu
