Code Geass Official Information

[drug-holic.livejournal.com]

Just a heads up, Episode 23 draws a line between 'season 1' and 'season 2'.
Episode 24 and 25 will be aired starting from Summer of this year.
(I'm guessing, even if they say summer it'll be August since summer break for us (Japan) is the month of August. The second season will be around fall... if not next spring. Also, I have 24 will be like a 'review' episode... but that's just me)
This means Code Geass will be taking a 'break', and will be momentarily stopped.

This is no rumor and official information.

Also, if any one wants the RAWs of the previous episodes, comment. I'll upload it for you.

Seiyuu info... kind of spoiler for epi 23? (actually, not really..
It's only information of a seiyuu of a NEW character that only comes out for what... like 5 seconds?)

V.V. is voiced by 冨澤風斗 According to the credits.
There's not that much info about him, so I can't really say if it's a 'real' seiyuu name, or just a fake name seiyuu like to use in games and anime.
I'm guessing his name is read Tomizawa Kazato. The first kanji can also be read "fu", The third one is normally "kaze (wind)" but in names, it's usally used as "kaza"... gah, the weird Japanese names, and on top of that, seiyuu/actor(ess) names can be made up so it's sometimes really hard to figure out how you read it. So no matter how Japanese I am, no matter how long I've been in Japan, and no matter how much Japanese education I got, this is my limit with names.
Other info I have:
If I remember correctly, he was in "kemonodume" (another anime series) as a really really side extra (a village child A.. or something like that)
I'm guessing he's new, and you can tell by the way he 'voices' V.V. His acting isn't that great.
But he's not that bad, better than a lot of new seiyuu.
I guess he's someone to look forward to now...

I'll look into him before season 2 starts.. and maybe write up an report on him someday.

His acting isn't that great?

I was... just kind of under the impression V.V. isn't exactly the most polite person kinda like C.C. was at first (And still is actually), so he was just being blunt and direct. Or maybe that was just me? Ah well.

I guess he's suppose to sound blunt, but his lines are still 'bou-yomi' as in... err, expressionless? Like as if he's just reading off the paper. @-@;;
Mostly new seiyuu come out like that. They get practice and exprience and become the "award wining" seiyuu like Fukuyama Jun and what not, so I wasn't expecting something so great. but for a new guy, his "reading off the paper" isn't as visible, which is good~ x]

I dunno, I just thought he was supposed to sound emotionless and detached? C.C. sounds like that a lot to me and that's why I like her too, so I think it suits him? Then again we know nothing at all about him, so.

(unlurk)Actually, I have watched that episode of Kemonozume in question and had looked up the credits at the time, and couldn't find anything about this seiyuu - however, I'm pretty sure he is actually a real kid. It sounds very different from an adult acting as a kid... and like those child actors they brought in for Mushishi. I could upload an audio sample if you'd like me to. Anyway, that might explain it.(/unlurk)

a kid, that explains things~ he can be a child actor, or one of those child voice actors media is in love with using right now... @-@;; That explains the weird acting, or at least it sounds weird...
