Would you prefer Marina Inoue?

Dear seiyuufag, how can I start getting into seiyuus? I want to know more about them, what's a good place to start with?

>>17590332
/a/ used to be, but it seems like they're banned there now.

Also Potastic Subs on YouTube, or google JimOne. She has a good site.

>>17590337
I don't get why /jp/ is so unfriendly with it, I guess they should be so welcome as idols are here. Makes total sense for me.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll take a look.

>>17590348
idols forced their way here.

>>17590243

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oz7RxvSBu8

>>17590348
They are as welcome as idols. That is, they're not welcome at all.

>>17590628
Seems to be quite a few idol threads up. If you don't like either, talk to the /a/ mods.

>>17591072
Why are /a/ such faggot pussies? Go talk to the mods yourself.

>>17591146
They have a point.

Seiyuu are anime & manga related.

>>17591652
/a/ doesn't think so now. (And they kinda have a point, especially wish glammed-up/photoshopped pictures like these, and with the line between seiyuu and idol growing ever thinner.)

>>17591652
I got banned for starting a seiyuu thread. I'll admit I started out with this picture and a lewd OP line. Do you think it still should've been allowed on /a/, or do you think this is a more appropriate board?

>>17593483
If you're interested in her appearance, you should go to /s/. /jp/ would be for discussing actual roles and their quality as a voice actor or actress. Especially if -actor- discussion isn't allowed and it's just yet another thread for posting pics of jap girls.

I wish I could delete ayaneru and minase from the business or at least from decent/good shows

I keep trying to listen to seiyuu radio but I can't listen to it passively because my vocab is shit and so I keep having to rewind which makes it very difficult to do anything while listening.

I should start listening to it before I go to sleep again.

>>17590243
>>17591072
If you want to stay in /a/, stop acting like brainless idolfags (ie. talking about how much you want to fuck someone, dumping the same gravure pictures over and over again, circlejerking with the same few non-anons about their targets of interest) and actually start talking about their voices, roles, events, and other actually /a/ relevant stuff.

5-6 years ago seiyuu threads had actual discussion and were held only once in few months so nobody on /a/ had any complaints, but nowadays you have retards like >>17593483 every week.

>>17594638
How about radio shows like this?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbCbj6f3sHE

>>17595419
Not enough people watch these to have a lively discussion.

Taneda Risa will be my wife
Glad she's coming back soon

Oh there's a seiyuu thread on /jp/. Cool.

I want to snuggle up to Yukarin.

>Asakawa Yuu
>was married and divorced
>fairly common knowledge that she's done voicework in porn
>open about having interest in men
>somehow still has a career in Japan, a country where a gross majority puts 'purity' on a pedestal to an unhealthy degree
>a country where any news of a popular woman having any sort of relation with a man, much less being 'used goods' ruins their life for the most part

Fucking how.

Good for her at least

>>17590332
Watch Tokyo Encounter for Sugita.

>>17597623
That kind of thing only matters if an anime is casting for a role that requires an "idol seiyuu"; ie, a heroine who will be expected to perform at anime events and such.

That said she doesn't seem have gotten any major work lately.

/a/ mods really are shit.

Are there any anime about seiyuu fucking around like GDGD fairies and Tesagure and all the others from the past few years airing now?

>>17590243
So are seiyuu thread going to be in /jp/ now? I don't really mind which board in the end.

>>17597623
Yeah like >>17597679 said she isn't really getting much work but it might also be because she is a freelance VA. There are other VAs male and female that don't get much work not because of any scandal or "impurity", they're just didn't get popular or manage to stay relevant.

>>17598238
They tend to jump around boards. I remember seeing seiyuu threads for more than a few months on /jp/ but then they were gone or nobody decided to make a new one.

Kanae Itou will be at Shanghai and Melbourne this month. I wish I could go.

>>17597341
Please do so before she winds up killing herself due to being a lonely 40 year old virgin

>>17599333
She'll be fine. Inoue Kikuko got past all that and even has a daughter.

>>17599839
I can't be the only one who thinks Hirano looks like a cheap, no name JAV star nowadays.

>>17597623
You're a fucking retard, let's just get that out of the way first.
Most VAs that aren't very young, are married or have children and no one cares. In fact most Japanese actresses that aren't very young are married or have children.
Stop thinking that all women in the public eye in Japan get the same treatment as the ones who have a contractually obliged pure/"idol" image.
If you're a gay ass weeb you might only know about those because you're only scratching the surface of Japanese pop culture, and a niche part of it at that, but for the most part what you wrote is *not* the case. The average female celeb in Japan is under scrutiny, as most people in the public eye anywhere are, but saying the "gross majority" puts 'purity' on a pedestal is so fucking dumb and ignorant I don't know even where to start.
Telling you to fuck off back to /a/ is a start at least, because of your memetexting and obvious newfaggorty.

>>17590337
>/a/ used to be, but it seems like they're banned there now.
What the fuck happened to /a/? I remember western VA threads never getting deleted unlike the Japanase VA threads but I never thought it would get this bad. Man, the newfriends fucked up that place hard.

>>17601320
>What the fuck happened to /a/? I remember western VA threads never getting deleted unlike the Japanase VA threads but I never thought it would get this bad. Man, the newfriends fucked up that place hard.
Because most of the time it's just dumping the same pictures over and over, posting feet, talking about fucking seiyuufus etc. Not any actual discussion.

>>17601172
She just looks really old for some reason.

Honestly, id an Inorin. I agree that she was/is pushed alot, but theres a charm to her. Shame when she forces a smile, but i guess it makes her genuine ones better.

I just want you all to talk about what they do instead of how you want to sniff their panties.

>>17608583
Kanae Itou currently voices Meganee Akai (PriPara), Carrot (One Piece), Sakura (Tenshi no 3P), Yui (SAO) and will voice Amethyst in Houseki no Kuni and Mito Takami in Love Live Sunshine next Fall.

Hibari (God Eater), Riho (Girl's Tribe), Wang Yuanji (Dynasty Warriors) and Rika (Madoka Mobile Game) are character she has been advertising around lately in events.

Aside from that, she is an accomplished singer with a fourth album being planned, she's been going all over the world from the US to China to Australia this year meeting fans of herself and SAO, she has done multiple radio broadcasts and she is going to do a voice over for an upcoming National Geographic special.

What else you need to know?

>>17608625
Ignore that guy, he's in this thread and he brings no discussion, should have just saged this troll thread and let it die.

>>17595419
I have a hard time watching radio shows with video because by the time I've watched a bunch of grown women act cute for forty minutes something starts to feel off. There's a quote from some anime producer that goes like this when discussing character heights:
>8頭身のキャラがギャグをやるとなまめかしくなってしまいます。
and IRL human beings are some of the tallest characters around.

Although every now and then somebody will dress up the seiyuu as characters and I guess I find that stuff pretty funny, even if having them sublimated into characters starts to feel off in a different way. Here's フルル役 Chikukta Ikuko (all these VAs were literal nobodies up until about half a year ago) talking about her pet rabbit.

Sumipe may be cute, but she isn't exactly smart.

Who is, or was, the male equivalent of Haruko Momoi?

>>17612639
does Sumire even like anime?

>>17612639
She's smart enough to successfully develop a carefully crafted image that appeal to the most desperate and pathetic koebuta looking for a surrogate girlfriend. Every time I hear her harp on how lonely she was in high school I can't help but roll my eyes.

http://www.lantis.jp/artist/itokanae/news_1505091600.html

Kanae Itou coming out with a mini-album on November 22. I may be reading this wrong but looks like she'll be writing all the songs. That's a first since she only wrote like two or three songs in her last couple of albums. Time to preorder this and show my love!

>>17612677
She loves Votoms, and after hearing that (oviously in addition to co-acting with her) Sugita recommended a lot of stuff for her (including Area 88 and God Mars) which they discussed on related picture.
She also loves Kinniku Shoujo Tai, and when he got Ootsuki Kenji on her other radio as a guest, he was overwhelmed by ho much she loved his music.

>>17615207
Oh ok. I guess she just has thin skin.

>>17597623
She doesn't seem to have much of a career these days (of course, that could be because she's an "old hag" now).

>>17608583
Kaorin F. will be in Venus Rumble and (feel free to laugh) Yamakan's next movie.

>>17612885
>harp on how lonely she was in high school

Ayaneru does that too. (To all the "grating voice" types, I love that moan she makes here. This clip also made me fall in love with Paisen.)

Did Kaorin and Nakahara piss someone off or did they just have piss-poor management? (Kaorin left her old agency Avex last year; I think she's freelance now.)

>>17601320
/a/ has become pretty "no fun allowed" the past few years.
>>17601299
This is only true on the surface (like a fucking lot of things about Japan). The Japanese have made adultery into an art form. (Still hope the best for Aipon and other recently married seiyuus.)

>>17616827
Speaking of Aipon, here she is playing the latest Madoka pachinko game.

>>17616056
That's believable because Ayaneru was't even slightly attractive until she got famous.

This is a gaijin midget.

>>17615134
Actually, I should ask, where can I digitally download her album? I only pirated it before months after releases, then just bought the CD eventually. I actually do not have a CD drive on my computer.

5 times in two days. That picture is from her company's twitter, not from me. I heard of other Kanae Itou fans visiting her in all of her events all over the world.

>>17601940
Lots of sex does that to you. I'm not trolling / joking / shitposting.

>>17618212
I am so confused. She looks much worse in that pic than in most other media she appears in. In other words pic doesn't really back up your post.

This thread doesn't look different from an idolfag thread. Image dumping, waifufagging, gossip etc.

I just really like cheering them on, less so for Rie because she's successful enough as it is. I'm glad Nagaku Yuki finally got a leading role even if it's for a garbage show.

I'm also usually not into the whole seiyuufu thing but I just find Marinka really attractive.

I wish there was a way to make Kanae Itou the happiest girl in the world.

>>17649390
Why does Rie even stick with them?

>>17606451
Apparently shes the type that looks fuckawful without any makeup on, and the pics to prove it exist somewhere.

>>17644065

Just associate voices with characters.

>>17651918
Not really. People post some bad shiny pictures of her back when she was tanned and they had her wearing some awful costume but anyone would have looked bad.

New Tanechan pics when

>>17652078
If thats a before-n-after, she looks pretty much the same.

Sorry for the completely newfag question, but are there any seiyuu who have their own channels on youtube? Preferably ones that have stuff like vlogs, cat vids, singing karaoke, etc. Like, vids that aren't directly promoting their work, and more like supplementary material for their fans.

>>17652936
I don't know if I'm wrong on this or not, but wouldn't VAs that do that have to go through proper agency channels? I know at least one example where a nicovideo girl got signed into a VA contract and had to stop uploading videos because of it.

>Mamiko Noto, Rie Kugimiya, Marina Inoue, Hanazawa Kana and Yui Horie
They used to be my favorites (the ones I can remember) but are they still popular or at least relevant nowadays?

>>17671086
Noto always has 2+ roles every season.
Kugimiya somehow sneaks her way into random shows playing as a loli or mascot character
Have not seen Inoue at all that much
KanaHana is in everything
Yui Horie is a legend and will find ways to be in every season

What is Aya Hirano (former /jp/'s favorite slut) up to those days?

>>17671054
She acts like a goof practically any moment there's a microphone around. She doesn't even introduce herself properly half the time anymore, some newbie will be beside her doing the full serious spiel about their role and their agency and she'll just go "Kitamura dayo" like a dope or something and be done with it.

>>17671280
Just looked at her wiki and it said she changed to different label in 2016, but I have seen her acting like that at Working events and radio (ie. 2010 and forwards) so "post-KR" has nothing to do with her behaviour.

Also, KitaEri seems to really like Scorpion (the western live-action series), and when she was on some anime recording with Sugita who plays the main character in its dub, she waited him at corridor or something and when he walked up to him (wondering what she was up to), she just said "SCOOOORPION".

>>17671086

Not being negative or anything but for some reason I'm amazed this is a Japanese name - as in its written in kanji 麻里奈

Theater acting apparently.

>>17667265
Is that paisen next to her in pic? I honestly can't tell from that angle - I'm not too familiar with her in the first place.

>>17671866
She definitely always could be silly, there just doesn't seem to be anything else now because there's no serious idol shit to do.

>>17672616
I think that's someone else, maybe her partner on a previous radio show. I just wanted to use an alternative to this.

>>17672748
When Omigawa Chiaki became a freelancer, the first thing she did on his appearance on Hidamari Radio was telling an episode that had to be completely censored and that's the first time in a show that actually features a corner where listeners send stories of spotting IRL crazy people like an old man who chased people while swinging a nata or an old woman who gave chocolate to boys to touch their asses).
Omigawa's story on the aforementioned corner was about a time when she was walking her dog and some regular looking man came up to her and asked "Can I touch it?". She agreed to it and after the man had petted her dog, he groped Omigawa and ran away. As you could guess, Asumin and Harada were totally creeped out while Omigawa laughed awkwardly by herself, saying "it was my fault since he never specified if he meant the dog or me".

Now that's the kind of stuff I would say is caused by not being tied by your agency or label.

>>17673365
No wonder she retired.

>>17672616
No

>>17671251
She just got signed on as the new voice of Mylene Jenius.

Well that's the thing, I don't know where to go for that. I always tend to pirate her album then just buy the album on amazon. I don't have a CD drive any more.

>>17684476
I couldn't find a link or I missed the show. Really makes me sad too because Kanae Itou was there.

>>17684492
Most seiyuu tweet/retweet it when they will be featured in an event/show/livestream you won't miss it if you really follow them.

>>17684476
Yuuka Aisaka is cute and I haven't watched the other Gust stage yet. That's about all I have to report.

Also I guess Bridcutt being the obligatory hafu stage presenter and KitaEri apologizing for not being MAO was funny.

>>17684509
Kanae Itou didn't have a link on her blog and she doesn't have a twitter. Maybe I'm just really blind when searching her up on twitter. Where do they usually livestream it at?

Look at this doll.

>>17684476
I watched my man, Onosaka and >>17684492's girl getting their ass kicked in DW9 during the Koei stream.

How did she do? Sounded like all she did was mash the X button.

>>17687001
This is how she did.

I love Kanae Itou

Wait did they say Shugo Chara? I knew what they were saying.

Now if only she could've played Wang Yuanji.

>>17687080
*i wish I knew what they were saying

also Onosaka's adlibbing is funny.

LUUUNNNCHH TIIIIME!

>>17684476
I watched the konami stream. Tokimeki idol will probably flop, but at least minoringo got a role.

>>17686549
I remember the time when I was starting to recognize VAs. I looked up Zhao Yun's VA. I find out he's Zelos. Cool. Then I see he's Lowe Gear. HOLY SHIT.

>>17688235
He is also Leeron in Gurren Lagann.
>Zelos
Not only that but he is the master of ceremonies for all TalesFes. No exceptions.

>tfw just found out that seiyuu thread is now on /jp/.

>Tokyo Encounter 44 subs

>>17687793
>Tokimeki idol
They're turning Tokimeki series into an idol game? What the fuck
Well, Minoringo got a role in im@s recently too, so at least she's guaranteed to have work for a long, long time.

>>17688969
It's an idol dating/rythm game/vr hybrid that is supposed to run on smartphones. It'll probably be shit and lag like crazy, but the songs might be good.

>>17688872
Start learning nip, we're on /jp/ now.

anyone have any idea how to download the images on this site? http://moca-news.net/imgsearch/?mode=&seq=0&w=%88%C9%93%A1%82%A9%82%C8%8Cb

>>17689216
>he doesn't know
just fuck around with the element inspector

>>17689473
I'll try again later, but I am not a very smart person.

>>17688872
Now I feel like getting off my ass and playing some DDR to get back into shape.

>>17689533
in the inspector: go to the network tab, reload the page, and look for the biggest image click on it, drag the image on the preview to a new tab and that should be it.

>>17689567
Not him but thanks.

Post your favorite seiyuu fanart.

>>17688869
When did the move happen?

>>17689567
Thank you. I hope you guys fill up your seiyuu folders with your seiyuufus with pics on moca. I know I got a long day ahead of me.

My wife Aoi sure is cute.

>>17692166

Neat, but why does everything have to be funded by smart phone games now

>>17693791
Phone games are flooding the market, so VAs are working much more on phone games than anything else

Don't you love it when your favorite seiyuu uses a voice they don't normally use? Was glad to open up Cassiopeia in Shadowverse, and Kanae Itou uses a very queen-esque commanding voice.

>>17692166

I am gonna marry a cute idol seiyuu!

>>17684492

I wish more companies would stream the seiyuu programs on youtube instead of Nico. I'm tired of the low quality videos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Rbe3kTkiv4

>>17696355
I feel Japan is moving more away from Nico to other platforms for livestream.

>>17696364
I can understand for streamers to stick to Nico, but can't see why companies still use it despite there are little to no incentives for them.

>>17694973

>Koshimizu Ami to replace Matsuki Miyu in all her voice roles
What you guys think? Gonna be weird to hear Yukiko as Chihaya in the eventual P5 sequel.

>>17696478
What does she get all the roles? It's better to spread them out around a couple of VAs.

>>17696488
I dunno. She said she was close friends with Miyu so maybe she wanted to really do them? No doubt though Ami is probably going to be really busy now, especially with Geass coming back.

I haven't seen it yet, but who did they use to voice Sapphire in the Prism Illya film?

>>17696376
Probably because of comment memes and because of the notion that otaku use niconico more than youtube

>>17696498
Considering Miyu-tan left us before 3rei aired on TV, Sapphire was replaced with Kakazu Yumi.

>>17696478
>>17696488
>>17696498
>>17696839
Speaking of Miyu. >>15909303

DAMN IT SUGITA! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>17696478
Bad for Yoshinoya.

Inorin and Saorin will have their own show on youtube

aya hirano is so cute 29age

>>17672607
Emiri, Risa, Erika, and even Mariya are also Japanese girl's names.

>>17692672
I thought that was Risa Taneda for a sec. Kanae usually doesn't wear her hair that long.

OP here. I don't think Kaorin was on TGS, but it looks like she is in some stage play.

https://twitter.com/FukuharaKaori/status/911873930293415936

Looks like Emiri Katou was in it though.

https://twitter.com/Seiken_PR/status/911746650095329281

I guess I'm in the "Gotou Saori would have been better choice", too.
Matsuki's natural voice is quite high and thin, so picking Ooshimizu seems pretty weird to me. if you went with the "friendship" route, then even Takahashi Mikako would have been better choice.

>>17698274
Nope. Here to compare, the only somewhat decent picture I can find of Kanae Itou with Risa Taneda. Kanae Itou has a bit of a wider and rounder face, and she has a beauty mark.

>>17696478
>>17696488
>>17696498
>>17696839

Speaking of Miyu. >>>/m/15909303

Oh Sugita.

Minoringo got another role! She'll voice a new girl in CCS.
They grow up so fast.

>>17700110
I kind of pity Chisuga Haruka, from all Macross Girls winners she's the one that got the short end of the stick.

>>17699001
Any pix of her with Kanae?

>>17701060
Who? Miyu with Kanae Itou? No, sadly.

>>17698286
Could someone with a better grasp of Moonspeak than Google Translate explain more?

>>17698177
>not Hayami Saori
What a shame, they could've had the 2 best people in the world host a talk show together.

>>17703634
Does she even act anymore, or is she basically just a talent now?

>>17703646
Last season she had main roles in three anime.

>>17680792
Literally why

>>17703803
Sick joke from the studios

/jp/ is not your shitty /a/ dumping ground. Take the hint from your threads getting deleted because all you do is talk about how much you want to fuck them.

And take the idolshit threads and DJT with you.

>>17704226
Boo hoo, go cry to the /a/ mods.

>>17704226
This is literally the /a/ dumping ground designated by moot himself though. How fucking new are you.

>>17642003
Between being the hottest shit in anime for a few years, she aged about 20 years in the past decade.

Poor Fatsuka is trending

>>17704700

>>17704700
>>17704718
This has been going for a few months. He looks terrible indeed. Hope he is not actually ill or something severe.(watched the special while waiting for Symphogear)

>>17704718
>>17704700
Matsuoka is probably stressed but when I saw him (and Kanae Itou) do their Niconico special for the SAO game he looked fine.

He couldn't stop looking up blue Asuna's panties.

>>17705037
That is one average generic looking asian

>>17704316
Getting deleted from /a/ isnt an invitation to come here

>>17704325
Just because moot made this board for things like Touhou, LNs, doujin works, and VNs doesn't mean your retarded idol and celebrity worship threads are welcome faggot, they never have been.

>>17705037
>This has been going for a few months
Yes but he was trending during SideM promos on TV on twitter because they were saying he's fat.

>>17705049
It's not uncommon for people to stop caring about their appearances and putting on weight on their 30s

>>17706252
Guess what, pleb? Seiyuus, J-pop singers, idols, JAV stars, talents, and Japanese movie/TV/stage/whatever stars are part of Japanese pop culture; ergo they belong on this page. Fuck off back to /r9k/.

>>17705226
Considering that shes probably only dolled up a little bit, she looks pretty damn good compared to the average not-dolled jap. Casual Aoi is a blessing.

バルス！

Aoi Yuuki, Soma Saito, Megumi Ogata.

A bit late, but today is Minori's birthday! She announced her new role in Candcaptor sakura and solo debut, singing the OP for Ramen Daisuki Koizumi-san

>>17710086
It's nice that she's advancing so fast.

Ono Yuki left Atomic Monkey.

>Ono Yuki left Atomic Monkey and is now a freelancer.

To everyone who are always supporting me, and to my benefactors.

I have an announcement.

I Ono Yuuki, have left Atomic Monkey Co., Ltd., who took care of me for 11 and a half years. Starting October 1st, I will be a freelancer.

To Atomic Monkey, who supported and raised me, I have only gratitude beyond words.

I’ll do my best to work hard, as ever.

I, Ono Yuuki would be in your care.

>He has been married for the last 7 years

To everyone who are always supporting me, and to my benefactors.

I have another thing to report.

I, Ono Yuuki has been married for 7 years now, to a woman of the general public.

While I still belonged to an agency, there was no opportunity to inform everyone of this, but now, as a freelancer, I have gained freedom to announce it.

I apologize for the late announcement.

I will strive to work hard as ever, so please watch over me.

I, Ono Yuuki, would be in your care.

Nah not really, he's isn't a pretty boy idol even if he has a recording contract with Lantis. Maybe he didn't announced because he wasn't popular 7yrs ago to bother. I think he only got a popular role in 2012 with Kuroko.

https://twitter.com/spacecraft_PR/status/914440447031836672

Furukawa Makoto announces solo debut.

There are too many male seiyuus named Ono.

>>17711582
It's easy.

Ono Daisuke (OnoD) = The most popular/famous Ono. Kamiyan's boyfriend and possibly married too.

Ono Yuki (OnoY) = Just announced that he's married. Most know him as Josuke.

Ono Kenshou (Onoken, OnoK) = HanaKana's boyfriend

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZD2A5mQZSI

>>17711684
There's also Atsushi Ono, but he's old so no-one cares about him.

>>17711404
I think he was already on the rise when he landed Karasawa in Nichibros.

>>17711382
>Is anyone flipping their shit over this?
I will never understand this. Unless its like the waifu meme but I have doubts.

>>17711684
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=2324

Another Ono Va but I think no one give a fuck about him either.

>>17711193
Sugita has talked few times about how he handled some of his thigs independently (eg. has his own business cards and deals with people personally rather than through a manager), so the former part didn't really come as a surprise.
The latter is something no one outside rabid KnB fans would give a fuck, though the part about "there was no opportunity to inform everyone of this" "because agency" sounds little sketchy considering Atomic Monkey is famous for Seki (one of the founding members) and Sugita (who was invited to AM by Seki directly).

>>17712472
Atomic Monkey has been pretty iffy to me before. Seki is...Seki, who isn't exactly renowned for professionalism and there was that whole bizarre Saori Hayashi thing.

Holy shit look like yakuza ties but was she even big name enough to be threaten like this?

>>17712955
She might have been crazy. Morikawa probably fired her before she starts more shit.

>>17713083
We'll never really know because of the nature of Japanese business and society. There's no coming back from that kind of publicity no matter what actually happened.

So Pyxis as guests on Thursday Yorunaito x Yorunaito last week, Toyota as the Monday assistant all October, and Itou as the guest solo this Thursday. Going too far there guys.

>>17712955
>yakuza ties
I know that everyone thinks the yakuza have their hands dipped in anything pretaining to showbiz, but what about this particular case made you reach that conclusion?

>>17714851
Because she said her life was being threaten by AM staff which is pretty thug like. Although it's possible she's mentally unstable and/or making things up out of spite and/for attention.

>>17711404
He got Josuke last year, replacing Wataru Hatano who, as far as I know, is still too deep in the closet. His otome CDs don't sound very forced compared to other seiyuus.

>>17715731
>His otome CDs don't sound very forced compared to other seiyuus.

Who, OnoY or Hartano?

>>17715731
Maybe it's method acting.

Here's a little story about the life of Wataru Hatano

Next male idol VA to be pushed? He's from Gekidan Himawari and voices Tatara in Ballroom.

DearGirl 〜Stories〜THE MOVIE3 the United Kingdom of KOCHI

It's still so weird watching Shawako as a low level newbie seiyuu. Just taking two people in the same agency born in the same week it's so hard to imagine that at the end of 2011 Hata was on New Year's Kohaku and Ai Kakuma was literally nobody and now the latter is the former's clear and undisputed senior.

Pretty much all Amina Sato has going for her is her radio show still continuing and I haven't heard anything about Sayaka Nakaya since Mayoiga either, so I guess it goes to show how little most mainstream idols really have going for them outside of the group brand.

>>17696478
Wait, Chihaya in P5 is Miyu-tan?

I thought she sounded like her, but wasn't P5 developed after her death?

>>17719830
Yeah, I am not sure the process nor how far back they did the recording but Chihaya is definitely her last role before passing.

>>17719830
P5 was originally scheduled to be released while she was still alive.

Looks like we have the next thread up already as a mod moved a seiyuu thread from /a/ here >>17720080
