I never did finish season one of this show. I never even got most of the cast straight. But the cast is so interesting that I've made a characters/seiyuus page to give me at least a chance of sticking with it.In its "loving band of moe sisters" aspect, this show is like K-On -- but with more experienced seiyuus, some fighting, and lots of pantsu. It is extremely popular on 2channel, where it is getting over a hundred posts an hour, second only to K-On itself.The seiyuus are interesting for various reasons. Fukuen Misato stars, having just finished starring as Yin in the excellent Darker than Black OVA. Her co-star, experienced TV-show dubber Seto Saori, steps into the role of Major Sakamoto, replacing the now-married Chiba Saeko.And surrounding them we have great seiyuus such as Sawashiro Miyuki, Tanaka Rie, Koshimizu Ami, Saitou Chiwa, and Nazuka Kaori. And tiny-voiced Kadowaki Mai is in her second anime of the season, along with Shukufuku no Campanella, in which she is billed as the leading lady. She may be returning from the ero-game world to do more anime.To go to the full page, click here or on the image:

Where have all the young men gone? Sure there are the military men, barely old enough to hold a meaningful rank, but the Strike Witches 2 universe is entirely bereft of any young boys. Perhaps ages six through sixteen are spent in secret training to reduce the number of assaults due to [...]

All I can say about this episode: remember Strike Witches 05? Same meh, repackaged. SDB wrote merely that “there are a couple of closeups which push the bounds of decency”. Don’t think so. The issue is that the series were on probation already and AIC is telling us loudly where they want to take it. So, SW2 [...]

Another interesting, somewhat ecchi game will be available for NDS users. It's Strike Witches 2 - Iyasu, Naosu, Puni Puni ni Suru. The player will take the role of Yoshika and heal other witches. No need to mention that the healing process might be mistaken for a prelude of some other activites.The description of this game on Kadokawa's official site says that Yoshika, wondering how to be of some help to others, was advised by Commander Minna to undergo a special training to strengthen her healing powers by developing more skinship with others. Pretty much self-explaining XDThose who preorder the game will in addition receive a telephone card with a Witch. There are 6 of them in total but in order to get them all, one would have to buy 6 copies of this game.I like these two. After all, Sanya is my favorite Witch.Gameplay pictures:Seems there might be some fighting or military training as well.If someone really wanted to spend his or her money on this game, here you go.
