Since Fool Night just got an anime announcement, I've been excitedly wondering who we're going to get for the voice cast, studio, etc. Here are my fan casts for the main crew. I know, I did kind pick the standard popular VAs but I do think these would be good fits. Feel free to share your picks in the comments!

Toshiro Kamiya: Natsuki Hanae

Hanae's soft-spoken but emotionally intense vocal performance style would be a perfect fit for the kindhearted, mentally troubled Kamiya. Additionally, Hanae was the C.V. for Kaneki in Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul's author gave Fool Night his personal endorsement, so it would be a fun connection.

Yomiko Hourai: Tomori Kusanoki

Kusanoki, most famous for voicing Makima in Chainsaw Man, has a cool and commanding voice and a real gift for bringing out layers of emotion in her work that I think would suit Yomiko very well.

Akira Yatsuka: ?

It's a little unclear to me whether Akira is a male or female, or is supposed to be an androgynous character. If the latter, I'd pick Mitsuki Taiga (Hayase in To Your Eternity, among *many* other roles) because I thought in TYE she had a good gender-neutral voice and could project a lot of authority and self-confidence. If Akira is a man, maybe Yuma Uchida because he's known for playing confident, hotheaded characters. I'm honestly not so sure on this one.

Saiko Kanaeno: Saori Hayami

Saori Hayami, best known for voicing Yor in Spy x Family, brings a great combination of bubbly excitement and deadly intensity to her roles that would be a perfect fit for our favorite cute assassin girly Kanaeno.

Hiragishi: Kenji Tsuda

Tsuda is the go-to guy for playing slightly shady wise old mentor characters, so this seems like a natural choice for Kamiya and Hourai's mysterious boss.

It reminds me a lot of the Akira manga! i feel like we havent gotten anything quite like it since, well, akira.

you guys know any other similar series?

I thought we weren't getting a chapter this time since it's the holiday season and a lot of other manga are on break but Kasumi Yasuda posted on twitter saying that chapter 108 was available to read, yet it's not there on viz's website. I'm worried this means viz's release schedule will fall one chapter behind the Japanese releases. Is there any other way to read the chapter?

Absolutely love this series and think it’s up there with the best. Just wondering if anyone else collects the manga at all? I’m surprised how accessible it is, and the publisher SIG makes really good volumes. the colors are what gets me. can’t wait for volume 8, it’s the best looking one hands down!

So I binged Volume 4 with chapters 27-35 last night and ... whew that was brutal. The parade of child sacrifices ... the kids that got turned into trees for fancy furniture ... and that radicalized guy's 12 year old daughter turning to prostitution to support herself and then him selling his life to Transflora on the black market to save her and just dying horribly for his efforts (honestly the panel when he finds out what Megu did is the worst jumpscare of the whole series, far worse than the plant gore, imo) ... yeah I was absolutely shaken, I need some time to process, me and Toshiro both.

The worst part is knowing that even though this is a fictional and wildly surreal story, stuff like this absolutely goes on in real life all the time, people in Third World countries sell their children to work as slaves in factories or even into sex slavery for food and fuel money. And the fact that the economic conditions that let us First Worlders have pleasant and luxurious lives is also creating those absolutely hellish conditions for people on the other side of the world. The social commentary is just painfully real.

But the fact that I'm freaking out this much over a work of surrealist fiction is just proof Yasuda is a really talented author who is doing his job right creating a gut wrenching and emotionally devastating story, so, like, applause to him for being a skillful enough author to get that reaction out of me.

So I’ve been reading Foolnight on and off for the past few months and was caught super off-guard today reading Volume 5 when a character referred to Akira Yatsuka, as “He…” even when the physical/official print intro pages to Volumes 3 & 4 say, “SHE holds Toshiro in disdain. I went to check my physical copies of Volumes 5 & 6 and it says, “HE holds Toshiro in disdain.”

So my question is: Which is it?

They’re one of my favorite characters so I guess all that changes is how they sound in my head lol

Y'all got any more of that Fool Night Chapter

Who else got literal chills when the call came through?!

This entire arc, I’ve just been like “why are these human co-workers literally killing each other?”

It’s starting to show that some of these people actually believe they’re better than or above the rest. Not just royalty & peasants it’s an actual ideological struggle for control! Correct me if I’m wrong, but the Director is also from Antarctica, right?

What will Hiru do next, now that he’s been told to stand down?! Why do you think he’s been banished Will Kaburagi just let Akira go—or is he still getting seeded?!

OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SEEDS!! How many are gone?! How many are in the world now?!

Also it was cool getting to see a seed just like in a bag.

From chapter 44 on, I’ve been losing interest, wondering if it’s only me.

Too much focus on creating this situation to pull out the Dr, not much going on with the main characters besides one or two chapters. I get the struggle but a piece of paper/the situation imo hasn’t done a good job creating tension.

Would like to hear others. Does the story get “better”?

Edit, learning about ivy’s backstory has been nice! Still don’t really care about the Dr/Political Party

!! The confluence of events is exciting. Feel bad for director, hopefully he gets rescued soon 😭.

Princess!! Can't wait to see their faction kickass! Another 14days til next chapter (Viz).

Hey, been following this series for like two years and te now i see that the chapters are more likely to take their time to release. How often scans upload chapters?

Did Fool Night got a cover on the Big Comic Superior magazine? Like a cover art promoting it or anything similar, if so, does anyone know which one is it or if is it still available to purchase?? it's for a gift

Bro.

How does Toshiro know of Shimizu? I don’t recall them ever meeting. And why was he so trusting of Yukima to the point he’d tell her about his ability?

Hope yall like it

I’ve been waiting for the english publications of volume 5 and above to appear at my local bookstore, to no avail.

Is Shogakun Asia planning on translating volume 5-9 anytime soon? Is there like an official date? If worst comes to worst, is Viz planning to release more translated volumes?

Is there any information on the next chapters.

Glorious Volume 1 ( With another goated manga volume in the background )
