Yousuke is Will Arnett. He even already had a role as a dickish, absentee dad. It can't be anyone else. The end. I can even hear him complaining about how hot it is in India.

I thought we decided on Amy Adams for Reiko, and you never said anything about AnnaSophia Robb as Yukari (because c'mon, that would work).

Kirika is another difficult character. I hate the way she's written in the live action film. The anime version is so much more complex. She's not deliberately malicious toward Mei; she's just absent minded and self absorbed, not evil. I honestly draw a blank here.

For the Mikamis, I don't think they're as important to the plot, so there wouldn't necessarily need to be someone really famous to play them. The same goes for the Numatas; Keiko just needs to be quiet and intimidating.

Jayma Mays would be a good Sanae. She's got the sweet, ditzy part down to a science.

Not sure about Ikuo. I can't think of many sickly young adult actors, oddly enough.

And we're still missing Izumi, Takako, Yumi, Aya, Takeru, and Tomohiko. We've also not really reached an agreement for Chibiki.

Here's who we have:

Kouichi Sakakibara: Freddie Highmore

Mei Misaki: Chloe Grace Moretz

Naoya Teshigawara: Jesse Eisenberg (because you never said otherwise)

Yuuya Mochizuki: Michael Cera (aside from being a bit too tall)

Misaki Fujioka: Ariel Winters

Yukari Sakuragi: AnnaSophia Robb (Again, because you've not contested this)

Reiko Mikami: Amy Adams

Shoji Kubodera: Gary Oldman

Junta Nakao: Josh Hutcheson (again, this wasn't contested)

Katsumi Matsunaga: Aaron Paul
