Can anyone confirm if those two VAs are good? They're going to star in the new Toei Mazinger anime movie.

How about you list their names?

Showtaro Morikubo and Ai Kayano
>>15262038
Looking over what they have done they seem solid. No performance that stands out really but solid voice actors.

Ai Kayano is good. Though your perspective may be jaded, since she was the seiyuu for Mikono in Aquarion EVOL.
Shoutaro is the VA of Shikamaru from Naruto. I'm guessing they wouldn't choose a hack for such a big role in a big franchise. He also voices a lot of idolshit (B-Project, UtaPri, King of Prism, Starmyu).
Morikubo's going to voice Kouji Kabuto? That's actually a good fit.

Let's just hope the old fans aren't butthurt over the choice, if he is Kouji.

I think you still have a chance if you are willing to spare her your liver.

Can't be as overly aggresive as Shin Kouji was

Those folks need to get over it. Hiroya Ishimaru is 76 years old.

That will probably happen at the same time you stop being retarded.

Kenji Akabane was a great voice for Kouji. He blends a good mixture of the playful teenager voice and the prowess shouts of a man. I can't think of anyone other than him to voice Kouji after what Hiroya Ishimaru already accomplished.
Kayano is great. Morikubo is a good actor, but he has one of the nasaliest voices in the industry.

Eh that was really all Kawamori's fault. She only did what she was paid to.

Not /m/ but I take it you didn't watch Konosuba then. That series is brilliant voice acting-wise and Ai Kayano's performance is no exception.
Who's gonna play Boss?

Considering how Ishimaru sounds/sounded, he seems like the ideal replacement.
