The Skip Beat Seiyuu Cast Ultimate Solid Proof, To Finally End All Doubts
Yes, this time it’s REAL. Believe it.
People still had doubts over the unofficial announcement I posted about the Skip Beat seiyuu cast, and I was even thought to be a troll by other ones who don’t know me or this blog and thought that I was just spreading false news like the rest of the 2ch people. That actually bruised my ego. I mean, do I ever look like a troll and/or a liar?! I know I lied once for the April Fool’s joke, and I guess I’m reaping the consequences of it. But oh well, this is the internet for you. I didn’t have solid proof of the news anyways, so who am I get hurt for something I didn’t deserve to be trusted with, right? Better safe than sorry, as they say. Still, thanks to all the people who actually trusted the words of this unknown blogger, despite how unofficial that announcement was *hugs*
Lo and behold, the Skip Beat anime cast.
Finally, after daysss (or has it been weeks already), I finally got hold of the ultimate solid proof for anime thanks to the person who scanned and uploaded this Skip Beat chapter 127 I got. Marina Inoue and another Japanese blogger also posted partial scans of this one, showing the portion with Marina Inoue as Kyouko, and Miyano Mamoru as Shou, respectively. This time, you get the full-page view of it 
Since this is already official, I guess I’ll say more of my thoughts on the selected seiyuus, especially Miyano Mamoru. I know many of you are dismayed that Miyano Mamoru got the role of Shou, but I’m pretty positive about it, especially after knowing that Mamo can sing!! 
Now I wonder who will be playing Ren… *dun dun dun dun* I’m sure gonna be on the lookout for this announcement~

Banzai! It’s really official !! =D I’m personally really happy that Mamo-chan’s voicing Shou too ><
I believed you the first time :/
That’s right! He can sing~! I look forward to a Mamoru Miyano song being the only good thing to come from Shou in this anime (as is appropriate for Shou).
I believed you the first time too, but it’s still good to see the scans. Makes it even more real. I’m just kind of hitting my head against the wall because of the scans. They showed Ren with everyone else. It’s like they’re purposely teasing us!!
Hah, they’re still looking for Ren. But I guess it makes sense, cause in a way he’s the most important casting in this series. Kotoko is too, of course, but when you consider that Ren is her ideal when it comes to acting then his VA has to be spectacular too.
BTW, did you read 126? 1 Dundundun! and a Kyaaa! on the side!
Anyone can sing, but can they sing well?
(Miyano Mamoru gets a pass from me I suppose, then again anyone would after you hear Goto Yuko in S.A. >.<)
@saimaisama: *high fives*
@RyanA: aww, and I thank you for your trust
@FuyuMaiden: yes, they’re such teasers!! tsk. They better give us a damn good seiyuu as a price for this!
@L-chan: I believe they already chose a seiyuu, they just want the fans to hang on to their seats and become all the more excited. They should give us a spectacular seiyuu, especially after all this suspense mystery effect
and… I actually cheated and read 126 even if I still haven’t finished reading the chapters in between lolz. Total O_O and Kyaaaaa!! even though I have yet to understand what was really going on
@issa-sa: Miyano Mamoru sings pretty well I should say. I’ve heard worse, not just Yuki Goto
I actually did not believe the annoucement until I read your blog! Thank you for bringing us the latest and greatest news regarding this awesome addition to the anime world! I am so excited for the month of October. Is there any information out there regarding the official website for the anime? Thanks and keep up the awesome work.
ãŠã‹ã—㪅o.o
Now it’s Philippines. x’]
Lawl
Ok, lawl.
Your reply at the last SkiBi post your country was Japan.
Where in the world are you really?
ã¨ã«ã‹ã~
HAH!
Serves you bitches right for not believing usagijen-san! D:
Stuff it in your faces! -evil laugh-
lawl
Haha~ don’t worry about those people. :’3
If they don’t wanna believe you it’s their loss! Let them wallow in their misery once they find out you’re right after all! Mwuahahaha!
Haha~
Ack! That’s sooo a tease! Showing Ren in it!
Lawl
Right right!
I dun mind any seiyuu for Ren as long as it’s PERFECT for his char.
Narita Ken-san would do, or my personal fave and (totally perfect for Ren) Morikawa Toshiyuki-sama.
His awesomeness makes me adore him x’3
He doesn’t sound like his characters when he’s OOC. Lawl, which was weird yet awesome.
OH! I’m rambling again. Lawl!
-waves- 
I always ramble about everything. I’m sorry.
Must go rest now~ x’]
Thanks for the scans~ :’D
I’ve been looking for them for awhile so I can read them. Lawl
@Amazonqueenbee: aww, you’re welcome! No news about the anime website yet, I just checked MOONPHASE and it still isn’t up. I also wish they’ll hurry and get it published!
@Wija-chan: haha, I’m in the Philippines. My IP address in the office just becomes recognized as a ‘Japanese IP address’ because of the proxy we’re using
Thank you for your trust, I really appreciate it 
Don’t worry about rambling haha, it just goes to show how excited you are over this!
Ohohoho~ x’]
No prob~ :’3
Oh now I know.
I thought you went to Japan at that time and now you’re back in the Philippines lawl!
That would be funny.
Ayayaya~ :’o
I just saw the TV anime pic on ANN!
I practically bled my nose when I saw it~
I also thought I was gonna cry
I want the pic!
And so…I searched…and found this:
Show ▼
Rawr! LAWL! xDDD
Maaan! I can’t wait already!
Gah! Yes…I’m too excited I dunno what to do…I’ve been sleep deprived for the past days because of SkiBi.
The suspense is killing me! Literally(?)
I must calm myself before I bang my head on the wall.
Aaahhh~ the anime seems really promising. TwT I’m soo glad it’s not like VK, or else someone will die.
Haha!
Ok…I’m starting to not make sense anymore…must stop and rest my aching head. Lawl
Toodles. =3
@Wija-chan: wow, the anime character designs look awesome! I just hope the production values will remain high quality throughout the series duration. And go rest lol, too much excitement will be bad for your health
Aaah~
Yes, I’m going to go rest once I show this to you.
You must help me!
You know Japanese..I don’t. D:
I heard Ren’s seiyuu is going to be…
Show ▼
Why?!
I mean…is it…SURE?! O_O
Aaah…I really wish I know Japanese.
Ack! Can’t stand seeing all those Kanji/kana characters…my head’s gonna explode! LAWL
Forget that…T_T
It really is him.
He’s the seiyuu!
This is a total MISCAST!
MISCAST, I tell you!
Aaahh…having to learn this news makes my head ache…
All those waiting…for…nothing…T_T
Stupid audition judges!
You call yourself pros!? BAH! -bawls in the corner-
@Wija-chan: hmm *tries imagining Katsuyuki Konishi’s voice for a second* I think I can see where your complaints are coming from, his voice is lacking this naturally deep bassy(?) quality which supposedly fits the Ren image. But I don’t think he’s that bad of a choice =O He is a versatile seiyuu after all, who can sound totally smexy serious (like Soubi of Loveless, Guren of ), gentle sempai-ish (Ousaki of La Corda, Sou Mochizuki of Kaitou Apricot), or plain crack. And the more I look at Ren now and imagine Katsuyuki Konishi’s voice, hmm… the more I can see how it can actually fit. We just have to forget this made-up image we have of Ren and his supposedly voice I guess, it’ll take time getting used to this, but I want to have faith in the casted seiyuu
i’ve been waiting for manga to be turned into animesince i’ve read it. i am addicted to the manga. yay. i can’t wait! and i am absolutely in love with miyano mamoru since his role in ouran as tamaki! the shou role’s perfect for him. you’re right. i absolutely love his singing voice!
i can’t wait already!!! ^______________^ *fangirl mode* *kyaaaaah*
@kaz: less than 2 months to go and the anime fever will be on! ^-^
YES!!!!
yay
i’m so glad
thanks for telling us
I dun know what people think about the cast but I think Konishi Katsuyuki is PERFECT for the role
those that disagree indulge yourselve in his bl dramas and you’ll see why I said so.
The gentle tsuruga ren that give out fake smile and honeyed words to maria (try to imagine soubi’ voice) and Ren’s dark side, khukhukhu. Listen to drama cd called Esu (S) hahaha.
His voice is super hawt and super kichiku.
I think he is a better choice than Narita Ken (from the drama) I find Narita’s voice there is the super proud person while Tsuruga Ren is depicted as humble by his fans in manga.
When I read the manga, I know, he must be voiced by Konishi or maybe inoue Kazuhiko will do. but konishi is the first choice.
YAY for the cast!
@olibaba: I trust your word about Konishi, I think I’ll be better off staying away from BL dramas, for my own sanity
