anime what-ifs

[insaneneko]

I was rereading D.Grayman the other day, and got up to volume 4. I still can't see a good basis for Kanda/Allen, besides the aesthetic part. I was talking to a friend about it, and she came up with a good reason. Because while Kanda has an attitude towards Allen, Allen doesn't. At least, up to the part I've read he doesn't. I need my UST a bit more two-way (or for Kanda to become like whoa!obsessed or something) for my slash-radar to go off.

I then started pondering who'd I could imagine voicing Allen in an anime (the production of which I assume can only be a matter of time). I immediately eliminated Paku Romi and MinaJun, because they just weren't right. I thought maybe Al's VA from FMA, but she'd have to pitch lower for Allen than for Al and I have no idea if she can. I then racked my brains for more women who voice boys (because I'm sorry, Allen so calls for a female VA. I'd be totally shocked if he was voiced by a guy), and...I came up with a possible candidate! Kobayashi Sanae, as in Akira from Hikago! She can do a little lower, calm and polite, and do the yelling passionate crap, too. Of course it could just be my sad brain clutching at straws because I was coming up blank...

I haven't seen any of the roles you've mentioned, so it's hard for me to imagine. I guess the same for you and Kobayashi Sanae. :P Well, as long as they don't miscast I'll be happy...
