Anime fans have yet again been quizzed as to who their most beloved seiyuu of the moment are, leading to some rather unsurprising results, be it by their recurrent and widespread talent or recent association with a work of overpowering popularity – and not much in the way of newcomers, age and marital status evidently having not been too much of a problem of late.

List doesn't have neither Wakamoto Norio-sensei nor Nakata Jooji-sensei. This list is void and null.
No Wakamoto, no Sakamoto, no Hayashibara, no Inoue, no Hisakawa Aya or Mitsuishi Kotono.
This list is bullshit.
Dude...
Hayashibara, Inoue, Hisakawa and Mitsuishi are already past their prime. I mean, these are indeed gold standard, but generations change and their new roles are dwindling. It shouldn't surprise anyone that recently converted anime fans don't recognize any of them.
well, just gotta understand that old (otaku) guys are pretty stubborn in letting go of the past.
Which Inoue? Is even Marina Inoue past her prime now? This does not have anything to do with being old, we old otakus like a lot of the most recent batch of seiyuus. But we don't forget the ones who were here before, and of course we compare. And not always the old beats the new, neither the contrary.
I honestly don't know any Voice actors or their names since I don't pay attention to those.. But just saying, Everyone has their own opinions. This list could be just perfect for you and matches you exactly, or this list could be different from your favorites.
YES, WE ARE! Never forget the IMMORTALS. And Hayashibara, Inoue (Kikuko), Hisakawa Aya or Mitsuishi Kotono are working!!
Every top list featured on here is bullshit apparently.
Never gets old.
You also forgot to mention Takehito Koyasu or Nobiyuki Hiyama!
This is a list of currently popular seyiuu, if it was a all time best`s list, Megumi Hayshibara would be in No.1 spot for me too.
And Takehito Koyasu for males.
No Wakamoto means this list is a lie.
de a~ru
I guess they dont include Nakata Jooji on these lists. He would be on all top 10 numbers
Megumi Hayashibara will always be my number 1.
Seiyuu OF THE MOMENT
Nope, Kill La Kill & Ryuuko's hype should have made Ami "wisewolf of Yoitsu" Koshimizu at least enter the list then. It's a "whoever I remember right now" list, as usual.
Ami Koshimizu might as well be another Chiwa Saito. The difference between her voicing Tenma (School Rumble) and Ryuuko (Kill la Kill) is striking.
Pure BS! It's only about recent anime, the list is only from Type B!!
Megumi Hayashibara FTW. Also Horie Yui, Romu Paku, Akio Ohtsuka and Kazuya Nakai.
Hayashibara & Kikuko Inoue best female seiyuus ever, period.
Megumi is my waifu
MINE.
Sancom blowing stories up again. Nobody should take a poll with little over 2000 votes seriously neways.
Also difference between 2nd and 10th place is like 4xx votes against 2xx.
Yeah, lame list posted everywhere on the internet, slow news day. I only came here expecting Sankaku would add some images instead of copy pasting the list. Where are my photos of Yui-chan?
should add that in comparison, hanazawa kana's 1st place has nearly 3x the votes of 2nd place mizuki nana
Hanakana really deserves her 1st spot!
no, she doesnt
yes, she does
Well, it's true though. I admit it.
Ah... I remembered the moment when h
Well, it's true though. I admit it.
Ah... I remembered the moment when she got teased by Sugita...
Totally different from what I have in mind, then again it's just a current most popular list.
Would be mad if it was "most talented of all time."
If it is 'most talented', Wakamoto better be in the list. In fact, his name should be the only name. And the poll should be narrated by Wakamoto himself.
I disagree. Should be manzai between Norio & Fumihiko Tachiki. Best narrator combo ever.
Gendo vs Charles. Evil fathers grand showdown.
Hear hear!
1. Mitsuishi Kotono
2. Inoue Kikuko
3. Hayashibara Megumi
The list is sooooo ahistorical!!!!
Nanami and Carl... I mean, as I expect of Hanazawa and Sawashiro.
Though I'm a little bit disappointed Itou Kanae isn't on top 10... Oh well, just have to wait for it.
Sugita, Nakamura and Mamo, as I expected of them... though why Sugita is far from Nakamura...?
Yui Horie and Kana Asumi aren't there.
I call BS.
agreed, bro.
And no Maaya Sakamoto and Chiwa Saito. Those polls were never worth anything.
Ever since they got married, people's hopes and dreams were shattered. I think Kana Asumi was the final straw that killed the camel.
Yes, Yui Horie is a wonderful seiyuu and she is working hard today. But which of those 10 girls would you drop? Tough call...
I bet people will say the same thing anyway if those seiyuu is on the top 10, but that time, they'll say for those that missing in the list.
It's just human nature to support what is not there when it's actually on the list but just not on the top 10.
Itou Shizuka didn't even make this list as! As usual I look at these top 10's just so I can continue to hate them.
Nice miyuki :D gogogogogog but kana is kinda expected all dem animes last season.
Good list. Ito Kanae is missing but thats ok, I'll have her voice for myself.
You can't, because I am doing that first.
She's a sack of MEAT and PERVERSION.
I wish she would stop raping my loli across all anime.
I guess don't know anything about her then.
hanazawa has been in alot of animes and i love her vice being number1=op~
good job listing the main characters (and their shows) for each seiyuu, 10/10 prime journalistic work
it's okay theres google for that, but you probably use bing.
sarcasm just flew way above the radar
Anime News Network? I think it is quite informative.
Yeah that's why I came to this article. FAIL.
