My first two character/seiyuu pages of the season are for shows that could turn out to be disasters. Or triumphs. Let's hope. Both begin airing on Thursday of this week.Kitakubu Katsudou Kiroku is yet another show about a girls' after-school club. It features four actual high school students making their seiyuu debuts. And it is written by the undependable Go Zappa (Chocotto Sister, Myself;Yourself) for a first-time director. But I'm interested in it because it has the tremendously talented 15-year-old Kidou Ibuki (Akiko in OniiAi) in the lead role.  Love Lab is about a group of girls who practice on each other for the time when they get boyfriends. It involves at least one hug-pillow. But at least it is directed by the director of Mitsudomoe, YuruYuri, and Kotoura-san, Oota Masahiko. And it also features Akasaki Chinatsu (Mori Summer in Chuunibyou) and Sakura Ayane (Kannagi in NakaImo, Bloody Mary in Joshiraku).In any case, click the titles above to go to the full pages, which look like this:
