The operators of the Chiba Urban Monorail have had to issue a warning to the very creepy seiyuu otaku they lured onto their trains with their glorious Ore no Imouto wrapping campaign, after reports that they tried to bully passengers into silence so they could record Ayana Taketatsu and Kana Hanazawa’s station announcements…
From a relatively brusque warning on the monorail operator’s site:
Regarding recording the train announcements
1. Recently there was an incident where a passenger told other passengers engaged in conversation to “shut up, you’re being noisy!” Passengers engaged in recording should please be aware that the carriage interior is a noisy environment where conversation and train noises occur.
2. Being engrossed in your recording activities can block access to the trains and may cause delays, we’d appreciate your cooperation in preserving their access.
Also, please also do not inconvenience other passengers by bringing overly bulky recording gear onto the trains.
This is not the only complaint they have about Ore no Imouto fans:
Regarding photography:
1. Please do not inconvenience or cause discomfort to other passengers when taking photos inside the train or on the platform. When you are engrossed in your photography, please take care not to block areas, bump into people or point your cameras at them.
2. Please take care not to inconvenience road users or pedestrians.
[A further seven pleas for better manners and safe behaviour follow]
We are delighted to have been able to realise such a well supported wrapping project, but if safety is judged to have been compromised or other passengers troubled, sadly we will not be able to continue running “Ore no Imouto Gou.”
Strangely, no such complaints have been made with respect to Tachikawa’s endless Railgun related promotions…
It may yet just be possible that reputation of both seiyuu and train otaku got a little worse with all this:
“This is a dangerous combination, isn’t it?”
“They don’t know the meaning of the word shame!”
“They should sell CDs at the station for these nuts.”
“Why are they even recording something like that…”
“Perhaps if they were shouting, but if they were just talking this is crazy.”
“It’s not like you can hear what someone is saying if you are whispering on a train.”
“Wait, aren’t we always being told to shut up and be quiet on trains?”
“Someone talking loud enough to bother a recorder like that was probably a mannerless wretch anyway.”
“Recording a train announcer is not abnormal behaviour at all then I suppose.”
“It’s no bother to anyone! Talking in a loud voice is!”
“Talking loudly is one thing, but telling someone to be quiet is just rude.”
“What do you expect if you are shouting on a train!”
“You could be polite about it at least.”
“So is recording stuff on a train normal now?”
“Yes. Go look on YouTube!”
“It hardly matters. Look at the full set of warnings they posted. Those seiyuu pigs have been causing a lot of trouble!”
“I bet they still wouldn’t be happy if the monorail uploaded the announcements somewhere for them…”

I honestly believe the monorail operators don't know how to upload the announcements on the internet.
Yeah. Just make them available on the monorail/company website for everyone. Problem solved.
But it's easy for us to laugh at them now. In all honesty, who could have seen that coming?!? Who could have thought some otaku could be so crazy?
Better question: who didn't see this coming?
Shaolan-kun at least didnt....
lol, i could smell it coming from 10000 miles :P
NO. sorry it was a lol. my terribad.
very kratzy indeed.
rofl.
“They should sell CDs at the station.”
Agreed, it would make things easier and be better quality audio for those who want it.
“It’s no bother to anyone! Talking in a loud voice is!”
Accurate. STFU.
“Someone talking loud enough to bother a recorder like that was probably a mannerless wretch anyway.”
Word.
“They should sell CDs at the station for these nuts.”
This would be a smart move and it would make the station more money.
what? screaming in your phone, ok. Listening to load music ok. But having a normal conversation with the occasional loud laught and whatnot? Srsly? What are you people, sociopaths?
they arent answering, huh? ;)
oh pitiful psychologist... i really pity your interface problems. you really thought you catched me with that book?
and that television wack?
you are responsible for the sociopathy. i blame everything on the entire psychological shit they created on their own. yes. shit. PSYCHOlogical SHIT.
I'd imagine the recorder was being "bothered" because they wanted a perfect recording with as little background noise as possible.
Yeah, they should have known this would happen and provided a way for people to obtain the voices.
Unless they did know, and just wanted to attract more people to their trains anyway.
I might be the act of recording that's important, though I dunno. I don't know any such person.
its like live concert vs cd album.
It*
(editing doesn't work)
nope, the act is not that important
if they release the CD i definitely buy it
My Seiyuu Otaku Can't Be This Crazy
The Otaku Must Be Crazy
Can't say I don't understand...I mean, come on, Ayachi and Kana-tan? Hearing these two talk is pure music.
And there's a shiritori-like game involving recalling the names of stations, so it works on many levels.
I misread the first sentence... "China" instead of "Chiba" and thought that one of the next words would be "explode". I'm ashamed for thinking like that after reading too many China related articles lol
My first thought on the Yamineko picture: "Someone kindly draw a dick in her hand, please..."
Well, recording these announcements and taking pictures shouldn't be an issue, as long as other passengers don't get harmed or disturbed.
FFS release flac recordings on website and problem is solved. They won't even whine about quality.
a simple pounding to the face would solve this problem
yenning would be preferable though
What, you mean this idea was unpractical...? Well, WHO would have thought of that...?
...really.
I'm surprised there was any noise on the train at all, it's usually deathly quiet on public transport in Japan compared to the West - although schoolkids can be rowdy, so I wonder if those were the ones making the noise.
However,
'Also, please also do not inconvenience other passengers by bringing overly bulky recording gear onto the trains.'
...exactly what the hell were they bringing on??
>requesting a cd with goddamn station announcements
>not putting it online
I just can't grasp this level of masochism from otakus.
To be fair I'm kinda curious now, does HanaKana do her Kuroneko impression when she says "doors closing"?
I CANZ RIDEZ KURONEKO?
Not 'til you learn to spell and stop using caps lock.
Use the Internet much? It's a meme.
Simple solution sell a CD
Why people never use the otaku route? it is profitable and solve all problems!
CDs with hand-shaking events?
The CD would sell exactly 4 copies.
3 to the same person who will upload it on to multiple websites.
1 to the "that guy" who always puts up an alternative download.
You clearly is unfamiliar with how much money Japanese otakus spend.
no that anon doesnt exist idiot.
unfamiliar? you are unfamiliar with the otakus in austria. and you still dont seem to know how to read border lines.
yep, that anon is idiot. they have more money power.
Some CDs sell well if bundled with tickets.
But maybe its destiny is a special edition of something not yet released.
Can sell millions. Just gotta put a code for voting which seiyuu is better.
vote with your wallet :)
or they could put QR code inside the train and charge money through the phone carrier, it's a fast win-win solution :)
New kind of potato!
New kind of hobby spotted.
2d voyeurism?
another light bulb bits the dust. and i didnt even hear the sound of the destruction.
Did you perchance live inside?
i once thought about it.. really. maybe i could be a polemic politician. but reality is sometimes harder than friction ya know.
and i am happy that my comments dont count as otaku.
hav fun with your upvoting /downvoting . i merely perceived it as something to be easily addicted to.
A much better way to pay homage to your ancestry than that prevalent COK riff.
its about a lightbulb in my room from myy light. and yesusually live inside and not outside my room.
Do ANY of these comments make any sense to anyone? These people need to stay off the 'net when they're on drugs.
every arab or african descendant is released from anything related to my data and at the same time i am unresponsible for word puns.
and no... making a "crash bum zack" schock in your newest television programm combined with "sein sie still" IS NOT going to shut me up.
and NO. trying to put a non existant gaming room in ABV speak is not going to please me. ITS GOING TO NASHKEO MURDERSPHREE ME TOO EVEN WHEN MY DESCENDANTS ARE NOT JAPANESE. I AM THAT EMPATHIC OR DE EMPATHIC TOWARDS EUROPEAN VERSIONS OF CELEBRITY.
AND this celebrity shit heads only mean the european and german verSCHEISSEion.
salafen - salafisten. wordpun detected. my name for this gaming character has no relation to the salafisten version. if you insist that there is i am gonna spamm more of this shit.
circustances like this prevent me from beeing an author AT ALL.
and i wish i had the chance to strike some foraging foreign object when i was a loli.. i guess i was just to girl.
I AM willing to bring down an entire pillar just to piss of an individual which reassembles MADonna. i am not that lethal but if my internet can do it.. i am all for it to try it celebrity individual.
DURING MY GAMING TIME i have killed mobs in a specific manner. i killed every little critter .. and the elite is my end.
i think the situation of THAT elite is not "kimo chi".
and the guys which go into a cinema and kill every guy in there did not find an elite.
and the .......... i am spamming are no cuuuuuurses .... its a bad habit from the time when i wasnt aware of kobato's existence.
and if the celebrity shit heads do not stop communicating in symbolism through their newest trendy products i am willing to spamm this site with "nadeshko-go-for-it-murder-spree's".........
THEMSelfes.
i am the good hearing sensei (empathy) type ;P which makes it difficult for good hearing (long ears) types to discern me from themselves i guess.
and yes i for some time... live in something which could be considered equivalent to a lightbulb... you know this lightbulb from a picture which goes on when someone gets ... idea? dunno <.< but i lived inside something like that
Could say that about myself as well. But that's because my environment is working toward inhibiting all valuable creative activity on the part of itself and myself - and what I'm left with is seeing the uterus can be said to have the shape of a bulb.
maybe i was so "hell-hearig" that i didnt hear it. yes its hell about satan.. no its the german hell for luminance.
that is the only point you want to make? that was the only point i wanted you to shout out for me. thanks!
