dear anime casting directors

if you want to spring it on us that somebody who looks and behaves all innocent is actually a deceptive bad guy, do not cast koyasu takehito in that role. or maybe disguise his voice while he is in "good guy" mode.
because i get immediately suspicious when i hear him, unless it's clear he is comic relief. :) and so far it's not failed. he's such a marvelous bad guy, and he does the switch from charming (with just a subtle hint of edge) to outright evil so very well. i don't really want them to stop casting him, *snrk*, it's just that it's never a surprise who the hidden bad guy is. but hey, i can live without that surprise.
i think planetes might be the exception, because by now i don't think yuri will suddenly turn into a bad guy -- mostly because it's not really that kind of show. in which case i'll be whining that koyasu was wasted in the role! yuri doesn't say much.
