hehe my guess about the twins was correct
Wait Yamato Yusuke isn't playing Tamaki Suō?
Is it strange that I have no idea who these guys are?
I think I saw some in supporting roles in series like Hana Kimi - where there are so many boys you can't tell who's who.
Other than that..I wanted something more..Maybe better known actors or Johnny's would've been the right choice..
Daito Shunsuke played the role of Sano's brother in Hana Kimi and main role in How to Date an Otaku Girl
Takagi Shinpei & Manpei played the twins in Ninkyo Helper if i remember correctly

but i'm glad that there aren't JE actors :OO
Most of these guys are relatively new/young. I was also surprised that it's going to air at 12:20 am. I'd expect this to be prime time.
(T_T) Tamakiiiii!!! Am I overreacting??? I expected soooo much more!!! It would take a perfect guy to pull off Tamaki, and Kyoya!!!

I wonder if the time slot indicates the subject matter. Maybe they're gonna be a little edgy with their interpretation of the manga/anime.

I hope not! The manga does not go THAT far, to go edgy... It's more cute, than...
12:20 am is a weird time slot for the premier of a show. If it is a re-telecast, it's fine. I mean, I will never be allowed to watch TV this late at night :P But anyhow, we are gonna watch on the Net so it doesn't matter to us, LOL.
Were the twins also in Mei-chan......

I remember a set of twin butlers. I wonder if it was them.
