I used to watch everything that Rie Kugimiya had a main role in. However in the past few years I've come to find she's had roles in anime that didn't appeal to me anymore.

>>155784458
Mamiko Noto. I could listen to her speaking all day.

Nolan North is my favorite seiyuu.

>>155784637
Sounds like a porn star lmao

Enough that it's the reason I don't usually watch dubs.

Also, KonoSuba wouldn't be half as good if it weren't for the voice acting. Hai hai, Kazuma desu

>>155784493
Funny back in her heydey you'd get called a pleb if you watch anything with her in it as it's considered to be an auto shit show just because she was in it, much like how kanahana is now.

I used to fap to Daihatsu Meika for at least 5 times whenever I watched Punchline every week.

Tomokazu Sugita is my favorite seiyuu

>>155784458
They're talking props just like all actors.

It's gotten to the point that I pick up shows based almost solely on their cast. Even really trashy LN adaptations get a pass if there is a VA I really like in it. I also like to pick up shows that have a lot of newbies performing.

Mark Hamill is my favorite seiyuu. Nobody can compare.

Which seiyuu's feet would you lick?

>>155785275
Most of them are passable desu

>>155785275
Tomato, who is also my seiyuufu.

>>155785081
Sounds like you'd like KyoAni and Dogakobo shows then.

>>155785275
Your seiyuufu's.

Voice acting is pretty important, if a seiyuu isn't a virgin then everything they say just sounds wrong and it takes me right out of a show.

>>155784678
You're thinking of Peter North.

I'll sometimes pick up something because one of my seiyuu faves is in it. Depends on who it is, though.

My fave seiyuu is Takagaki Ayahi, your faves can only dream of being as good desu. I don't care about male seiyuu as much as female seiyuu but I've learnt most of them through sports anime and non-sports fujoshit and I like Ono Kenshou a bit.

Of course, the only correct answer to the favourite seiyuu question is Wakamoto Norio.

Everything has potential to affect the final product of a show.
Often, in good anime, one aspect will disproportionately account for a larger amount of artistic direction than the rest.
In recent history, Konosuba had amazing voice acting, but ``QUALITY'' graphics, but is still amazing. Shingeki no Bahamut is known for its cinema-like direction and amazing graphics, but average voice acting.

That's not to say that you can't balance all of the aspects. I think Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei had very good balance with an ensemble voice casting and simplistic style which lent itself well to experimentation (the OPs and EDs)

>>155784458
what's her baby's name

>>155784458
It matters significantly less since I can't understand what the hell anyone is saying. Same goes for animation.

An anime could have terrible animation and voice acting but get a 10/10 rating from me due to the script. If I'm just going to be reading subtitles for 20 minutes an episode then everything else doesn't matter.

Seiyuus come and go. Only the memories remain, fading much slower over time.

VA is a huge value, Some characters become really memorable due to the VA they have and create some really good moments.

Aoi on Clementine comes to mind.

Saori "Goddess" Hayami.

Saori Hayami

her teeth irl look weird so its whatever but she always voices the best girl.

>>155786320
Yeah she really was pretty.

>>155786085
Nice ancient taste, faggot.

>>155786358

>>155785933
Fucking hell, she really grew up from being a 17 year old.

What's with Mimorin and her green contact?

>>155784458
Chiwa Saito is my favourite, damn shame she hasn't been up to much lately.
Good cast is enough to carry a show, doing the same thing as >>155785081 but I also like to listen to newcomers or people I haven't heard before.

There is one seiyuu that makes me instantly drop any show he appears: Hatano, Wataru
I despise his grating fucking voice, his completely wooden fucking acting and I wish he would just die already. Whenever I have to listen to his trash for more than a minute I get the urge to vomit and punch the screen at the same time, it's amazing in a twisted way

>>155785933

>>155785948
Yeah, I posted Lynn in a seiyuu thread before. I liked her a bit in Sabagebu! and she was good in Saijaku although a bit squeaky at times. I fell for her hard for her Keijo!!!!!!!! performance though. She put a lot of personality into Nozomi.

Her performance in delivering lines in Fuuka is pretty good. The fact that she got paired up against Yuusuke Kobayashi worked out quite a bit, as you can see the trained chemistry from doing Monster Strike carrying over.

Fuuka really demonstrated her ability to sing though. She's still a diamond in the rough in that area, because I think she still hasn't hit her ceiling in terms of potential, but her mid-range combined with that huskiness she never used before can make her amazing.

I wonder why she doesn't want to give her age. That used to be a common practice among Japanese in the past, but it's becoming less common among the current generation of seiyuu and IIRC she's the only one left in her generation that doesn't give her age.

i put a fair bit of value in it, but it doesn't factor into my decision what to watch at all. i take it as it comes since most seiyuu are actually decent to pretty good. they're pros. that said, while i enjoy good voice acting, art direction, photography, storyboarding are much more interesting and important.

As a wannabe musician and a future linguist, sounds and speech in general is just so incredibly fun to listen to and I'm quite delighted that Japan puts so much emphasis on their VA business. Japanese is especially nice sonically and all the dialects are super interesting. So yeah, I value voice acting an awful lot. I even avoid playing certain fighting game characters if I don't like their VAs.

My favourites are the cast of Hidamari, especially Mizuhasu, Asumin and Cho.

Her first name is Lynn (Rin), but I'm curious about her last name. I wonder if she's related to anyone well-known or if it's because her last name isn't Japanese.

Also, she's half-white by blood, but her English is kinda moderate at best. I recall on a seiyuu segment hosted by Hiro Shimono that she was on she got August and July mixed up. Her pronunciation of syllables in general is also super-Japanese, more often than not enunciating "h" where often Japanese is flexible with the "h/f" consonant sounds.

What I meant by saying that is moreso the suggestion that she might have a Japanese name and is likely using Lynn for the same reason MAO uses MAO. If you look on the ArtsVision talent section she's even put in her own section because her name is in English. Makes her really easy to find.

To be completely honest i credit a lot of kemono friends' success to their choice of VAs

Another miscommunication on my part then, I was actually making that observation based on her Japanese. It's really apparent in her singing. Climber's High has "H" consonants in a lot of places where other vocalists might have said "F" sounds.

Thank you. It helps a lot she voices mai waifu (Amu) and many other roles I enjoy. I really do believe Kanae Itou is magnificently talented. Many critics say that she can only do one or two voices, but if you look all around her roles she can do around 5. Her normal voice (Amu, Ohana, Saten, etc.), a more cutesy voice (Elsie, Koume), A rougher voice (Nana, Wang, Airi), a really deep serious cool sounding voice (Grey Wolf, Easy), and of course she has a loli voice when she does younger characters (Ringo, Miura, etc.) She knows how to convey the proper emotion, she can sing well, she isn't typecasted (well, a lot of her characters are perverts but I think that's a coincidence), and all around she is just really good. I do not know why Kanae Itou isn't casted more, maybe she is busy with acting or singing, but I do wish she ends in more roles. Something PreCure related would be great.

I love her so much, I really cannot wait to see her. I wanna cum on her mole.

Sugita is pretty good. He can't really change his voice at all, but fortunately his voice is pretty unique that you'll often recognize him instantly. His acting is superb.

But more importantly, the guy is a total bro.

You answered your own question.

>>155788538
>>155788552
I do not fully understand how the industry works, but for a role that doesn't really matter why didn't they just get a new seiyuu rather than a veteran?

>>155788486
>tfw will never get some CBT from her with those boots on

>>155784458
don't know them all by name so i will just list characters whose voices i loved: Senjougahara, Kanbaru, Judo girl from Seitokai Yakuindomo, Rei, Kaere Kimura (blondie) from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Haruhi/Lucy.

>>155788156
I disagree. Good voice acting does way more to convey emotion and give life to a character than good animation. You can have the best writing and script but if the seiyuu can't deliver it properly then it's all meaningless.

>>155788594
Oh and i forgot - Mashiro-tan from Mikakunin

>>155788574
because they can afford it. if the producers want certain actors for certain roles and they have sufficient funds, of course they're going to get them. some writers pen their scripts with certain actors in mind too, provided the production committee constellation allows for it.

>>155788574
Because they're paid per word.

Paid by per episode.
A veteran salary for one episode might be the equivalent of a newbie for 1cour.

>>155788650
they get lump sums for the number of afureko slots they're booked for, plus they can negotiate extra for more extensive roles that require preparation.

I kind of find it funny how most seiyuu aren't household names in Japan. When I went there, I asked people off the street if they were familiar with the names of singers and seiyuu I asked them, and most of them said they had never even heard of them.

>>155784458
A lot. It can really be a plus in my evaluation of an anime if the voice acting is good, and I sometimes pick up stuff if a seiyuu I like is in it (and then drop it if it's not worth it).

My favorite has been Yuuki Aoi for a few years. I love how the range of characters she can voice is so wide and how she can sound really different even when doing similar characters. I like her acting as whole.
Before getting into Aoi I really liked Hatuka Tomatsu. really loved her performance as Hitei.

I listen to their first roles and latest. This also applies to some English Dubs. It's fun to hear how far they've come

>Ryo Horikawa
>Megumi Ogata
>M.A.O (because she did great in Gokaiger)
>Kenjiro Tsuda
English

>Laura Bailey
>Steve Blum
>David Kaye
>Crispin Freeman


I've always been fascinated by it since I grow up on voices in Radio and Anime. When they really get into the role, it makes you wonder how much they take pretending seriously and the way the producer just puts the right type of music in certain scenes makes it perfect.
