History Manga / KoeDeOshigoto

* {{Eroge}}: Not one itself, but uses the voice acting part as its premise. There is also a pretty comprehensive breakdown of the different sub-genres and what goes into the making of an H-game.

** Chapter 26 makes incredibly obvious references to Konno Azure's [[BleachedUnderpants other series]] ''Puberty Crazies'', right down to copying its first two pages without changing the dialogue. This is justified by turning it into an in-universe eroge, created by Blue March, with identical plot and characters, apart from minor name changes and making all the main cast mikos. It even lampshades the character design and personality similarities between the two series and explicitly points out who is based on whom in case that [[{{Expy}} wasn't obvious enough]].

Amusingly enough for a {{seinen}} manga, ''Koe de Oshigoto!'' likes to throw staple {{shonen}} tropes in the mix as well, all while giving a surprisingly faithful representation of a voice actor's work. It is also Konno Azure's [[BleachedUnderpants first attempt at a mainstream series]] and although not technically a {{hentai}}, still has some very borderline content.

* BleachedUnderpants:
** This stuff's ecchi, which is tame compared to Konno Azure's other works.
** Several character designs including Kotori, Hadzuki and Fumika are [[OnlySixFaces outright recycled]] [[{{Expy}} from said previous works]], among with some personality traits. And just so there is no doubt left, chapter 26 reintroduces the girls from ''Puberty Crazies'' as in-universe fictional characters. In a bit of clever reversal the similarities are explained as the eroge characters being modeled after their respective voice actors.
** All the doujins shown at Comika are early Konno Azure works as well.

* WillTheyOrWontThey: Kanna and Motoki. [[spoiler:TheyDo]]

* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: [[DirtyOldMan Sakanami]]'s [[LargeHam hammy]] fellatio lecture embarassed Kanna so much that Fumika had to "sucker-punch" him. It becomes this trope when this is taken UpToEleven.

''Koe de Oshigoto!'' (or ''Voice Work!'') is an {{ecchi}} comedy/romance manga by Konno Azure. It was serialized in ''Comic Gum'' from 2008 to 2013

''Koe de Oshigoto!'' (or ''Voice Work!'') is an {{ecchi}} comedy/romance manga by Konno Azure.

Related works include three [[AudioAdaptation Drama CDs]], a PictureDrama and a two-episode {{OVA}} series.

* ThereShouldBeALaw: Several characters try to point out that what Yayoi makes her little sister do is [[ThisIsWrongOnSoManyLevels wrong on so many levels]], to which she simply replies there's no law against it. [[MoralDissonance Nobody calls her out]] when she suggests something that ''is actually illegal'' like coercing a 16-year old to perform sexual acts on her classmate ''for the sake of sound effects''.

* VirginPower: In one of the most ironic examples ever, virgins make the best eroge voice actors, because sex in real life is [[AnatomicallyImpossibleSex nothing like its portrayal in games.]]

* PlotWhatPlot: {{Invoked}} by Kanna at the very start of the appropriately named fapping game.

* UnresolvedSexualTension: Kanna and Motoki, the first is way too shy and innocent, and Motoki is too uptight and being gentleman about the business.

* WillTheyOrWontThey: Kanna and Motoki.

** The series {{tagline}} - "Female senior [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent high school student]] [[HowDoIUsedTense do]] a blushing character voice story".

--> '''Kotori:''' 80% of everyone looks at me like I'm a cute animal. The rest want me to call them [[LittleSisterHeroine Onii-chan]] and do things to me, you know, {{Lolicon}}s. People look at Hadzuki like they want to put their ''thing'' between her breasts and unload their ''that'' on her face.

* [[AscendedFanboy Ascended Fangirls]]: Kana's [[ThoseTwoGuys two friends ain't exactly a fan]], but they JumpedAtTheCall, [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/koe_de_oshigoto/v02/c019/28.html pretty easily]]. [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/koe_de_oshigoto/v02/c020/22.html And damn good at doing their job too]].

* BelligerentSexualTension: Sakanami and Fumika, the tension part comes from Fumika, since for some reason Sakanami [[ItMakesSenseInContext can't get aroused by her services]]. [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/koe_de_oshigoto/v02/c015/13.html For example]].

** [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/koe_de_oshigoto/v02/c021/3.html SEIYUU TRAINING IS SERIOUS BUSINESS]]!!

** Much like ''GundamSousei'' is to Franchise/{{Gundam}} and ''Manga/{{Bakuman}}'' is to ShonenGenre Manga, {{Eroge}} Production is awesome.

Related works include three [[AudioAdaptation Drama CDs]], a PictureDrama and an ongoing {{OVA}} series. ''Koe De Oshigoto! The Animation! take:1'' was released on November 17th 2010, with ''take:2'' following on May 11th 2011.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Media Blasters had originally planned a dub for the US release, but were unable to get the music and sound effects needed.

* [[AscendedFanboy Ascended Fangirls]]: Kana's [[ThoseTwoGuys two friends ain't exactly a fan]], but they JumpedAtTheCall, [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/koe_de_oshigoto/v02/c019/28.html pretty easily]].

* BleachedUnderpants: This stuff's ecchi, which is tame compared to Konno Azure's other works.

* CensorBox: The OVA uses a creative type of this that looks like black and yellow police lines along with weirdly sounding bleeps. One of the bleeps is "Dame!", which is Japanese for "No!"
** [[ItGetsBetter It's even more creative than that]]. The sound bleeps for Kanna's and Yayoi's speeches are "~Tee hee!~" and "Hora!" (Japanese for "Hey!") respectively.

* RefugeInAudacity: Much like ''GundamSousei'' is to Franchise/{{Gundam}} and ''Manga/{{Bakuman}}'' is to ShonenGenre Manga, {{Eroge}} Production is awesome.

* PlayingToTheFetishes: The series as a whole revolves around exploring the most common fetishes in eroge, so this is to be expected.
