Trivia

The seiyu who voiced Mayu's mother in the anime is not shown on the seiyu list of the anime and no information is available from other sources, either. Recently, on Feb. 14, 2017, Lynn Okamoto tweeted referring to another incident and recalled that there was one seiyu among seiyus who served for the anime Elfen Lied and said later in that seiyu's blog that she/he did not want to serve the role. It could be the person he referred to is the Mayu's seiyu. He added that he would never want to use that seiyu for his next anime, if any. This trivia is just an inference but a probable one.
