>>138508859
Her birthday is forever etched in Japan's memory as Earthquake Day; sort of the equivalent of a Murcan being born on September 11. That's gotta kinda suck.

Can I ask for some seiyuu recs? I hope that doesn't bother anyone. Please just recommend some seiyuu for me. Male or female.

I wrote Naobou a fan letter and tried to send it before her birthday. I feel all kinds of spaghetti for what kind of embarassing shit I spewed over and over again until I got my shit together in the last two pages. Here's to the first embarassing moment of this year that i'll never forget.

Anyone here listened to the latest Suzakinishi Radio episode? Apparently Acchan and Pecchan are shaved to some extent down there. Why were they talking about such lewd topics on a public radio though?

Seems more legit than when Maaya Uchida won it as a solo award in 2014.

As an idea of how fucking dumb these things are, last year the rookie award had Soma Saito and Reina Ueda and this year it had Rie Takahashi and Shunsuke Takeuchi, WHO ALL HOST THE SAME FUCKING AVEX SPONSORED ROOKIE SEIYUU RADIO SHOW. Two of the others got some thing for iRis right after too

Presumably next year will be Nishiyama's turn. Maybe they'll get Nanami Haruno some fucking work by then, considering they pulled about 10 shows out of their ass with Rieri this year.

Well as someone who liked the Gakkou manga more than the TV series, I thought Inori MInase was perfect as Yuki. It was exactly how I'd imagined the character. The entire cast did a great job, but Inori was the standout for me.

I feel like Sony just realized what they had with Inorin and are starting to ruin it with that bullshit. There's a lot of things that gave her credibility and likability without being a niwaka that don't seem to be part of their idol image plans.

>>138530687

It's pretty fucking lame because Inorin is a legit talented seiyuu and it's frankly a waste of her artistic ability to use her as just another pretty face.

The only female VA with big MC role last year, it is either her or Ayaneru but Ayaneru is pretty weak because gochiusa is hit mostly because of Chino and other cast. Kanahana only has psychopass to be considered Anthem is much bigger hit, Mai Fuchigami has Gup but it has so many cast that it is not strong enough MC role for her just like Ayaneru

Last year best actress winner is Anna Frozen VA, because it is always difficult to find big hit anime with female MC

I think all of /a/ can agree a blade of grass is more relevant than Mai Nakahara.

You know, I honestly bet she tries hard to get a main role, but has constantly been unsuccessful for 4 years running. Hell, wouldn't be surprised if she retired this year. There is literately no way she is making any fucking money like this. I mean, she's got her radio program, but that probably isn't even enough also.

To be honest, as the only Maifag on /a/ I realise she's dropped off in terms of relevance the most compared to other seiyuu who appeared in the early 00's. Still doesn't mean it hurts though, how come every other seiyuu of that time period has managed to get a new main role in the past 4 years except her. What is it that makes her not appealing?

>>138531506

If she didn't become seiyuu, I suspect she'd be gravure model or doing JAV now.

Intention-K offices. Apparently that's where a lot of the other people send it.

I originally was suppose to cut it down to 1-2 pages, the 9 pages were more of a draft but I was tight on time trying to re-write it and my friend convinced me otherwise that she'd love the 9 pages since it's more honest and more raw of emotion.

I would say you can hope for it, but it's pretty unlikely that you'll get a reply or anything.

Yeah. I mean, really the biggest fear was handwriting this thing in English, with all the slang and shortcuts I work with when I talk.
From what I've read/heard she had her major in English so she's good at reading it anyway? So I'm in the clear I suppose.

It's just hard because really there's so much I want to say but can't really say correctly without coming out as insane or overly attached or even just as misunderstandable. So I had to pick a lot of words carefully and talk things out the long way to make it legible just incase. It didn't help my handwriting was ASS.

Not expecting a reply, but my good vibes and Karma lately has been great. I work on the road as a driver so on Kanon's and Naobou's birthday, those two days alone were the only days it was sunny while on the road, no traffic and I had the best days of my life working all while I had the flu.

If I had to compare my letter, it's more akin to Kanon when she first meets Keima and then talks to him It's surprisingly creepy how lifelike it is to the anime. If anything the only positivity I can gain from that is that it hits hard home for her and she laughs hard at it and then gets very creeped out.

At least something cool came from it.

The only concern is whether it was on one of the "radio" broadcasters, Japan is really weird about this radio with video thing. Restaurant Matsuoka in particular was kind of too well produced to fit into that category at all in my opinion either compared to the usual one or two stationary cams shit but it was on Hibiki so it's in.

An odd side effect of this is that im@studio is nominated but im@s station isn't eligible because it's on niconico these days. Or was last before I stopped paying attention because they rights claimed it literally everywhere and I couldn't pay for it if I wanted to.

Sumipe winning a newcomer award when she's in good business since over 5 years. Meanwhile Takeuchi-P wins one when he has only a single main role under his belt.

Inorin has skill, but probably only won due to Sony shilling. I have conflicted feelings about Matsuoka, but there's no denying he's kind of the male Kanahana of our era.

I'm happy for Takarie though, she really deserved her award.

Well good for you Anon. Hopefully she can read it all since she's somewhat decent at reading English.

Huge Nao fan since her Kanon major debut but I've always been curious.

I'm still so curious why she joined Intention from Arts Vision, which is definitely one of the major studios in terms of seiyuu talents.

Intention is literally Suzumura and Sakurai (the two having known each other forever and doing Cherry Bell together with the late Matsuki Miyu R.I.P.)

So curious what the circumstances were leading to that change.

She only shows up in a couple of episodes in the third season.

If grim/dark in general, some people die, some people get edgy, etc. It's practically power rangers with singing to power the transformations though.

What's an SSY? I hope you didn't mean to abbreviate Shinsekai Yori because that's fucking stupid. And if you are, I'm not even sure if your comment is positive or negative.

Well I'm not talking Madoka dark. I used the Nanoha rule. If it's as dark as Nanoha A's or darker than it's grim/dark in my book.

I'm saying that Risa Taneda as Saki Watanabe in Shinsekai Yori is, for my money, maybe the GOAT vocal preformance by a female lead in an anime.

>>138560107
that's a bit much

>>138560147

I understand why you'd think that but I think you're underrating because it's such a recent anime.

>>138560272
This all stemmed from somebody saying Maaya Uchida has decent range and you backing up somebody saying it only matters on the role.
Not only was her performance nothing special at all, they even used a different seiyuu to play Saki's older self in SSY because Risa Taneda has absolutely no range.
SSY was trash and it won't improve over time, just like Risa Taneda.

This is just patently false. Aya Endo played the 36 year old narrator version of Saki, but Risa Taneda played the 12, 14, and 26 year old versions of Saki.

If you think that means Risa Taneda has no range, lol.

Thanks for agreeing on her having no range. Saki sounded exactly the same until they changed her seiyuu for the very last timeskip.
Even Yuki Kaji, the most hated seiyuu on /a/, has better range in SSY and everything else he has worked on.

lol the last time skip is to the 26 year old version played by Risa Taneda.

Aya Endo's 36 year old version is the narrator.

Let us know if she talks about it on dream theater or something. I love nao but I can't seem to sit through dream theater nowadays. It's a whole half hour of nothing. She needs a co-host. Cavalry radio being over made me super sad.

You and me both Anon! Sad to admit but I wasn't as fully aware of Naobou fully until Ribbon Revolution was around the corner. I loved Kanon as my waifu, and the voice was the perfect match for her as icing on the cake. I know there was the UDX event, but I never really understood the scope of Naobou's starting out and her success shortly after. I've had a long few years following her career casually and making up lost time, hell I'm probably considered a secondary fan, but my love for Kanon is so strong, and Naobou carries it so much because of her fantastic work and just how much she loved the role means more to me then anything.

Just to be able to send a letter telling her how much my life's changed and how much I owe her because of it is all I want to say.

>>138562453
I wish. For something as personal and deep as my letter I don't think she would ever drop a mention on that level live. I dream that she would write back, but for a seiyuu like her with such a big name behind her, getting a reponse as one out of almost hundreds of thousands of fans is unlikely. I don't know any Japanese either, so I asked some of my friends to let me know if she mentions me.

>>138562453
>It's a whole half hour of nothing.
There is a good number of radio shows that are only really worthwhile for a couple corners. Dream Theater is pretty healing at least.

That actually feels like a decent note to bring up Aoi Saori Shin Bangumi ending. Like on one hand you always hate to see things end but it also seems like it's been going pretty much nowhere for a while now.

>>138562873
A letter written in English is going to stand out. There's a very good chance she'll at least read it.

>For something as personal and deep as my letter
Jesus fuck dude.

>>138563196
I didn't mean it like that! You know exactly what I meant! I don't actually watch her dream theater broadcasts and from other opinions some say I would probably never hear about it on the radio due to the "personal" context of the letter.

Not like I'm some special snowflake or anything.

It was pretty coincidental since I recognized all the other cast names in KamiNomi heroines in Yuuki Aoi and Touyama Nao when it first aired and I was first getting into seiyuu around that time., so I got interested in following the two. Was fun to see the two of them together in Ikoku Meiro no Croisee.

>>138562453

Naobou is usually always good with a guest/cohost since she is pretty hyper and talkative already so if she has someone to hype her up or chat with, it's always nice.

-Maoyuu Radio with Saito Chiwa was fun.
-Hataraku Maou Radio with Hiyo was hilarious.
-Cavalry Radio was definitely at the top of my list in terms of radio shows last season. Love how they won the custom character contest for OnsenAG's mascot characters (Ishigami used to draw manga for a magazine for a year)
-Nisekoi Radio with guests is fun too
-Have not listened to Rhodanthe radio since I have to subscribe and I'm too cheap too
