Is Romi Park Playing Against Type as Ragyo, at least in terms of voicing a sophisticated villainess?

Yeah, she's playing a woman for one. tongue

Granted she's not quite as bad as Ogata Megumi as far as that goes but that's a high bar.

Wait, Ragyo's voiced by Romi Park? Damn. Did not hear that at all. And I have heard her playing female parts before, and that's recognizable once I'm listening for it.

So… I'd say yes, but I'm not sure entirely what type is being played against here.

Well- it's certainly an unusual role for her.

Well, I thought she was at least smarter than average. Though such things aren't really noticeable in a series like this, unless they're on the extreme ends.

Its one of the things that caught my eye about her: "Oh my god, she has enough of a brain to know when to call it quits"

I think the main strength of the show is that it doesnt take itself seriously.

Here is what /a/ has been up to today.

If you're curious, it all started when an anon compared her voice to an alto sax.

Manga Medusa especially.

Ragyo is bad, but is she as bad as Teppei Hojo?

That probably would have been a much better fate for Chrona than being raised by her.

Like, look how fucked up Satsuki is, and that's Ragyo being neglectful imagine she raised Ryuko after finding out she successfully fused with the Life Fibers.

Then, ironically, Crona would be free to do whatever he wanted!

Basically, whatever Medusa did, Ragyo did it twice over. Two daughters = twice the opportunities to be a horrible parent. Medusa emotionally abused Crona? Ragyo regularly molests Satsuki for what appears to be teh lulz. Medusa threw Crona away when s/he wasn't useful anymore? Ragyo threw away her day old infant daughter like medical waste and then beat the shit out of her other daughter eighteen years later when she stopped being obedient.

Whatever you wanna call Medusa, Ragyo is so, so much worse.
