Aya Kyunik:
The more I read Asakura's responses, the more relaxed I feel.

To be honest, I was too entranced by the new hairstyles to be paying attention to the jiggle physics :P
Pizzaman:
Where Yukiho goes from here, and where Asakura-san goes from here--
--Because Asakura-san will play Yukiho, would there be changes to her character and personality?
D1: Because of the nature of characters and their relation to VAs, some things from the seiyuu might get passed along to Yukiho. Yukiho is Yukiho, but will be "Asakura-san's Yukiho", and hopefully gain new things along the way.
My philosophy is that good characters never stay static. Take Haruka for example. At the start of the series, she may not have had a lot of character, but over the years, how people see her has passed onto her character, and in a way Nakamura-san has pulled her through so that she could grow up to be Haruka we all know and love.
--Producers around Japan, producing Haruka.
D1: Right, and I believe that fits the concept of idols perfectly. So Yukiho as a character will change as Asakura-san plays her role, and I think that this is a good thing. Going through changes like this will make her more idol-like.
When the arcade started, the idols only existed inside my head, but now they're inside all of us, the staff and the fans alike. We all perceive them a little bit differently, and that gives depth to the characters. No longer are characters invented and owned by the original creator, but rather owned and raised by all of us. And I'm at the far end of the spectrum, at the end where we can make the amendments. Therefore it's the duty of staff members such as us to shift the idols to a more desirable and fitting direction.
--By playing Yukiho, do you think you have changed? Do you think you will change?
Asakura: Not just Yukiho, but when I started my job in the Im@s series, everyday was an adventure. But now I'm getting more and more used to it, and I'm prepared to walk forward, hand-in-hand with Yukiho.
--Any words to all the producers?
Asakura: Honestly, I've never had my heart beat so fast. Also, I wonder how many fans I'll have by the time this is online. I hope I have people cheering for me, even though I'm just a free bonus that comes with everybody's beloved Yukiho.
D1: I expect everyone to be surprised at this revelation. First off, I need to apologize to everyone for being the harbinger of shock and awe. But for Im@s 2, in order to make Haruka and others shine more than ever, and to make everyones producer life better, one can't be afraid to make changes. But I want everyone to understand that I won't mess with the characters that were raised by all of you. This time around, we have a plan with a longer time-frame in mind, so in the end, I hope everyone will be happy.
This isn't just a decision made by me as a director, but also as a producer. And I hope you stick around to see the results.
--Finally, a request to Asakura-san. A message for Yukiho?
Asakura: Stay sweet and strong, and don't stop being your natural self. I'll be next to you at all times, and I hope we can be together, as a pair.
--Thank you!

Totally unrelated to the interview, but:
Two more possible slots, right? Since they seem to be pushing the number 3 and 5 quite a bit...
H4ataraxia:
雪歩の声優が変わったってどういうことなの…
oh man thats a shocker
well lets hope the new Yukiho voice is good, or at least matches to our expectations. I bet many fans will be shocked about this.
Though a part of me is kind of looking forward to how asakura will sound like as yukipo
