This episode took a lot out of me. It was all fun and laughs until they brought up Zuka, and casually dismissed her.

The bar scene was too much.

I hope Zuka never gets the role and have to keep watching from the sidelines.

>>119877768
I want someone to give her a hug,
This is even worse than that time Ema drew a cat poorly

>>119877904
Ema got past it for the better and so will Zuka.

>>119877768
SHE WAS SO CLOSE. Fuck, I really wanted her to make it.

Maybe the VA they went with will get caught in some scandal and they'll have to go with Zuka. I don't care how contrived of a reason there is, I just want her to be relevant.

That Taitanic. I feel that everything will go the wrong way from now on.

>>119877768
Don't worry. They just have to kill that other bitch and the role will be all hers.

>>119877984

Gainax? Gonzo? Madhouse?
AIC ?

>>119877937
But how?
Ema got past her hurdle by getting some sound advice from a veteran co-worker, getting herself together and putting everything into it.

She came through because she put in the work and earned her success.

Zuka failed.
Then she failed again, even worse. Then she got some sound advice from a veteran mentor, got herself together and put everything into it once more.

And you know what happened? She failed.
Fuck.
Like, even if they pull a "the lead girl dropped out and you're he backup" garbage, it'll still feel like a sour victory because she still wasn't good enough, and would've only gotten through by pure luck and the crooning of an autistic manchild.

Like I can see it happening. Their 1st choice for the role drops out, the 2nd choice scores one of the other roles she was waiting to hear back for and can't do it, and Zuka gets in as '3rd choice', better than nothing. And it'll feel like shit because she was just a loser that got lucky. She couldn't even own her success, couldn't be proud of it.

Fuck, I'm upset.

>>119878124
As long as 2nd choice does something stupid, the role is all Zuka's.

Or maybe director will get wishy-washy again and demand to have Zuka take the role.

Read it again, that's what anon's whole problem is. Even if she gets the role, she will get to work on Third Aerial with everyone, but it'll be a secondhand victory that she didn't get on her own merits. Despite all her earnestness, her best didn't match up, and circumstance making it happen still demonstrates that she was third-string.

>>119878124
It might be a sour victory, but if she's smart then she can use it as a chance to get her name out there and get more roles. That's the big reason why people don't want to invest in her yet, because she hasn't done shit, it'll be less of a problem when she has something to work with.

>>119878233
>secondhand victory that she didn't get on her own merits
Allow me to rebut: welcome to reality. It's all dumb luck, and being able to take advantage of it when you get it. Life is shitty that way.

In a show about work life being shitty, it's not surprising to see them yet again demonstrate that work life is shitty.

>>119877318
WT has most fucked up pacing of all recent shows.
But it's understandable - manga didn't even reach 100 chapters, they started to work on anime ~year ago. So they had like 30 chapters to work on,
but 50 episodes is too much.

>>119878124
She's the second choice, they already like her fairly well. After finally getting a big role it will boost her confidence. She was already pretty confident during the audition.

I can't deal with this. I want earnest, hardworking people to succeed, and Zuka moreso than most. She's supporting herself, got through the training, she's even part of an agency, and it's just this last hurdle that's proving to be too much. Fuck.

>>119878371
I still want her to get the role, but it'll dig into the back of my mind that she wasn't even in the top two picks.

This is like the weakest bullying I've seen since the fall season started.

It's like all the real bullies came through and did their thing, and you probably read about it all on the archive and thought "hey wow those guys seem so cool!" so you decided to try and imitate them like the fat kid at school trying to imitate his older brother.

This is like the "fatty fat fatcakes, neener neener neener" of bullying. Apply yourself next time.

Pro bullies wouldn't pick on Zuka. What can they say that would hurt her more than real life?

>>119878124
Luck is always a factor for acting. Every actor and actress have to wait on their big break to show off their talents. There's nothing wrong with getting lucky. What matters is whether she was able to capitalize on the chance and make the most of it.

>>119878642
Does it hit too close to home?

>>119878623
Honestly, was there anyone here that didn't think Aoi would get her a job?

At this rate, the Myamori coven is going to usurp Musani from within

>>119878572
>>yfw the first role of Zuka-chan will be in a shit adaptation,and nobody will give her a role again.

How many promising seiyuus had that happen?

Can someone explain what "passive aggressive" actually means?

>>119878905
I'm reminded of Rokujyouma, which had an all newbie cast and ended up being the best-acted show of the season. Not a singe one of the VA's that carried the show have gotten work since.

>>119878963
I'm reminded of that and Gekkan, though Chiyo's now voicing in Rolling Girls, so I guess it doesn't could
Man, I miss Roku

>>119879012
Rolling Girls might bomb in terms of sales.

Fortunately, if Kancolle gets a second season, she's going to be voicing the new MC.

>>119878935
It's when you find indirect ways to express hostility or disapproval while explicitly avoiding being overt or confrontational.

For example: a person who gives a loud and exasperated sigh whenever someone around them does something they don't like, but when asked what's the matter, just responds "oh nothing" with a fake smile.

>>119878935

>>119879053

I just never got into it. Put your gun down

>>119879053

You're right and I hate it

This is another one of those great episodes that felt like a half-hour venting session on all the bullshit they have to put up with.

>>119879273
And now she's voicing 10 characters this season!

8 of them from Kancolle

>>119879273
It's a shame, the Merry manga is actually pretty decent. The anime probably deserved to flop but it's really not her fault.

>>119879344
How the fuck is that possible

I could see the director pulling some shit where he insists they go with Zuka instead. I don't see them having her exist just to sit there and serve drinks between a couple auditions. She'll have to be relevant somehow and the longer the wait, the sweeter the victory will be.

>>119879190
For about 20 seconds, then it got old.

>>119879380
She literally has a conversation with herself using 4 different voices during episode 2.

Before this episode, I was all for bullying Zuka. Now, I just want be by her side and tell her that everything will be daijobu.

She's the HanaKana of the Kancolle genre.

>>119879380
I don't watch or play KanColle, but here's my guess:

KanColle was planned as a small shitty browsergame and they didn't expect it to become so huge. The creators didn't have much money to work with so they could only hire a few VAs for the many shipgirls.

Now it's popular and the anime staff wanted to go with the same VAs as the game, leading to some VAs voicing 8 or more shipgirls.

>>119879380
Kancolle cheaped out on Seiyuu and found one really cheap one with so much range she could voice multiple characters convincingly without it obviously being the same person. Given the format of the game, it wasn't really thought that it'd ever be an issue

Then it exploded and now she does 1-woman drama cd's and voices more than half the cast of an anime.

The cloud guy - who is he supposed to be?

Makoto Shinkai, the master of cloud porn?

>>119879463
That's exactly correct.

The VAs do a good job of it though, especially her except for her doing her best Batman impression for Nagato

You can't be fucking serious, being director is suffering.

>>119879626
Basically investors. Companies that put money into the project in order to gain exclusive rights to distribute certain material, like merchandise, or music. Their money helps fund the project's budget, and in return they get to use the IP for their own business.

The one guy was a rep from a gameshop franchise, and he wanted sexy seiyuus because he intended to use the IP in ads for his stores, which would include events where seiyuus come and perform like minor-league idols and sign autographs. He wanted the cast to be pretty so they'd be more enticing in person.

The music guy wanted singer seiyuu so his studio could make character songs and other supplementary material that they could sell.

etc.
