holy shit that's pretty damn awesome. This is indeed a crazy coincidence as both characters used scythes and just now they have the same VAs

Now I'm imagining so many of the other characters Koshimizu Ami played cracking awful puns like Yang does.
Or using the laser-pointer trick in some cases.

Ryuuko would probably use the laser-pointer to get Mako's attention.

And after seeing some of the dub, I'm even more convinced that there needs to be seiyuu_connection fanart connecting Yang and Leonmitchelli just because of the similarity in tones that Ami Koshimizu used for each of them (heck, even their style in combat gear is somewhat similar).
