Educational company Benesse has released an animated CM promoting their line of courses, featuring the vocal talents of top seiyuu Hanazawa Kana – and naturally receiving near limitless acclaim, if perhaps solely due to Kana’s staggering popularity.
A recent survey has mercilessly ranked the anime characters that fans believe to have the most suitable voices, regardless of the associated seiyuu’s popularity – with a certain moeblob of legend almost topping the ranking with her adorably well cast (it would seem) tones.
I think she should be number one on this list. Whoever picked her for the role deserves an award. While mismatched in theory, she delivers perfectly for the character. I'll add that many characters on Railgun/Index... More
How's that for damning with faint praise. Dubbing is an awful mess. If it was worse ten or twenty years ago that doesn't make it good today. I've got to side with 05:32 on this... More
Fans have been polled concerning the seiyuu they find to have the most surprising age, whether it be by dint of their youthful appearance or the age of the characters they still manage to voice convincingly – with Masako Nozawa (the voice of the young fighters in DBZ) proving to be the most shocking.
American cosplay celebrity Jessica Nigri has been announced as the voice actor of busty Sonico for the upcoming English dub of Nitroplus mascot anime Super Sonico – quite the surprise to viewers, as likely none were knowledgeable of her dormant voice acting prowess, though in at least one huge regard she seems perfectly cast.
The latest anime ranking to surface questions fans as to what anime they find to have the most impressive cast of “big name” seiyuu, with an oddly misplaced retro title trumping the might of modern day anime at first place.
I'm surprised they didn't have Fist of the North Star on this list...LoGH and FotNS basically share the same cast.... More
While I don't have anything against Shingeki no Kyojin or One Piece, they don't really have that much of an allstar seiyuu cast. For SnK, apart from spawning the army of all Kaji Yuki protagonists(which had... More
Famed Chuunibyou seiyuu Maaya Uchida is under suspicion of some delinquency of her own after AV/seiyuu otaku mercilessly highlighted her “uncanny” resemblance to a mysterious minor porn star.
Is this her? http://i.imgur.com/RlY2Z1z.jpg... More
Well you also have to remember that there are asexual people in the world (I think). I'm not asexual nor have I even met anyone that I know is asexual, so I can't say for... More
Seiyuu Saori Hayashi’s failed attempt to hang herself has shocked many – and even more so thanks to the suicide selfie and disturbing writings she left after the attempt, lamenting that “with my face like this after hanging myself, I can never go back to being a seiyuu.”
Some hardcore irony right here.... More
You're a complete moron if you think "looking up info" on Japan is an acceptable form of investigation. That goes for any culture. You can't know what a place is like until you... More
A Touhou otaku has been arrested for threatening to pour kerosene on a young woman who’s voice work in a doujin video apparently did not meet the standards and style he expected of Reimu-portrayal.
5 of them are honeypots.... More
@10:05 GTS has been a standard quote denotation since the days of newsgroups. Decades later emails are still coded to quote with greater-than-symbols appended. I hope you don't credit twitter with the above addressee line, either. On... More
Top singer seiyuu Nana Mizuki has expressed her “profound sadness” at news that one of her fans got himself arrested after illegally dumping the 208kg of potato chips he bought to get the chance to meet her on stage – not least because one of her own fans has just undone all the days she spent charitably picking up garbage herself.
In my honest opinion, they should just cut out the middle man. Let them pay either ridiculous amounts or auctions things like these. They'd earn the same but didn't have to print a lot of... More
Beer = liquid "guts" since its invention. For the amount he's spending, this is a whole lot better.... More
One-time scandal seiyuu Aya Hirano has finally shed the trappings of her stint as top seiyuu and idol completely, netting herself her first starring role at the prestigious Imperial Theatre and changing her class description to “former seiyuu.”
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.
Hatsune Miku’s 3/9 celebration MATSURI DA DIVA is over, and reactions are mixed about the two hour plus event, with some complaints from Vocaloid fans about all the amount of time given over to seiyuu rather the virtual idols themselves…
