Seiyuu otaku have been celebrating those seiyuu who are good with their hands as well as their mouths – and it looks as if a number of them may well be artistically talented enough to pursue careers as illustrators or mangaka in addition to voice work, as is plainly evident when their work is showcased:
Marina Inoue:
Eri Kitamura:
Aki Toyosaki (details):
Ayahi Takagaki:
Mai Kadowaki:
Yuuko Goto:
Ayane Sakura:
Kana Hanazawa:
Saori Hayami:
Aoi Yuuki:
Sumire Uesaka:
The Strike Witches cast:
And of course, there is Yuu Kobayashi:

Saw the title and expected Yuu Kobayashi.
Was not disappoint.
speaking of titles, am i the only one disappointed with it??
come on think of the possibility
"seiyu that are great with their hands as well as their mouth"
"little side known about seiyu"
"seiyu: and you thought they are only good with their mouth"
seriously it's such a title trolling goldmine >_>"
Please leave.
crap lol honestly. i should leave as well.. lol
*sigh* =x
you come back when you're straight
I assumed they would leave her out and got this ready: http://i.imgur.com/wHR8K.jpg
Truly a Masterpiece. I wish I had her pixiv. xd
Kobayashi Yuu, always #1 in my haato.
your pigeon?
That's be hato.
Whatever Yuu Kobayashi's on i want some too!
Same here. Saw that coming a mile away.
So they draw well too? Fine! It's not like I was jealous of them to begin with!
It's alright... *Pats tsundere on the head*
Damn... I would pay millions for Marina Inoue signed arts :(
I would pay millions for those Kobayashi Yuu draws, that is the real gold!
Aoi Yuki 3, isnt that just a still from the Anime, where madoka was drawing her magical girl outfit ideas, did she work on the series art?
I seem to recall that she showed her sketches to Ume and she liked them so they got put in or something to that effect.
I quite like this kind of staff interaction.
FALSE! In Vol 1. commentary. Ume said she was requested by staff to draw somthing look like amateur drawing, but it not quite well for them. so Ao-chan try and staff like it.
About outfit. There're all Ume-sensei's work.
Marina Inoue's art looks great.
Man, i so want too see a manga written by Gen Urobochi and drawn by Yuu Kobayashi! Gestalt Collapse FTW!
So, basically, Marina Inoue, the voice of Kana Minami, should also have done key animation for seasons 2 and 3 of MINAMI-KE. It'd have easily looked better than what Studio Asread's B team could draw.
Fuck yea exactly my thoughts!!!
I really like the new look of Season 2 compared to Season 1.. Kana's my favorite (looks like a brunette TDA Miku lol) and her voice is so cute!.. and only recently realized her VA can make amazing manga lines!
Well, I finally have a VA crush for the first time xD
I'd gladly rewatch Season 2 if she makes some key animations for it :D
What do you mean? Season 2...or 3 (depending on how you look at it) of Minami-ke only just started to air this season...:P
Better than Oda
Dat cosette!!!! Fap fap fap hhhhhhhnnnngghhh!!!!!
Yuu Kobayashi and Urobuchi Gen should make an anime together. It would be beast.
trademarks the name "Beast" now....
Ayane's is really cute, and their all good (kinda of)
but I gotta say Marina blows the rest them of the outta the water...
Kana Hanazawa high as shit, drawing LSP dancing with a mushroom and a double penetration monster.
Kana you're drunk, give Homu your keys
Some seiyuus' drawings are kinda disturbing... :x
I remember Kobayashi Yuu's performance of the Maria+Holic opening, and suddenly it all makes sense...
MINNA~ MESU BUTA NI NAREEE~
theres just no voice on earth that can possibly match the craziness which is Kobayashi Yuu
Kana Hanazawa likes DP. Look at the picture.
Alicia Melchiott *check*
Cosette Coalhearth *check*
Why no Riela Marcellis? They no like VC3?
No, SanCom haven't got infinite place on servers.
Surely you jest? At least upload them on the channel.
That picture Marina Inoue did is fantastic. Just my type of character style as well! She went up a few notches in my book!
inoue-1.jpg ♡
So cute I feel kinda crushed inside.
For a seiyuu who's a seiyuu in Bakuman, all she can draw is a....whut?....
"...who are good with their hands as well as their mouths" ... enough said.
*saw yuu kobayashi drawing.... and fUCK that is so abstract
is aoi-yuuki-3.jpg really drawn by Aoi Yuuki herself?
"And of course, there is Yuu Kobayashi"... I lol'd.
Another thought about Marina Inoue: from what's posted here, I think she might be a better artist than Coharu Sakuraba, MINAMI-KE's mangaka, though I admit that may not necessarily be fair, since all I'm seeing from her is single pages of manga at most. I dunno if she can churn out so many pages of art a month like a professional mangaka like Coharu Sakuraba can. It's one thing to make one nice drawing of a girl, it's another thing entirely to make 50 different drawings of the same girl in different poses and with different expressions for a single manga chapter.
I see. Thanks for the insight.
KONAMI: If you're ever making a Silent Hill sequel again and there's a school in it, please fill one of the classrooms with ALL of Kobayashi's art. And lock the player in the room until they've look at EVERY SINGLE ONE.
I'd fucking buy 10 copies!
such great artist? Really? this is considered art? Its highschool level at best.
Thanks Sumire Uesaka, I didn't feel like sleeping tonight anyway.
WTF..Yuu Kobayashi... this gives me goosebumps... is this girl okay..?
