Seiyuu Profile #10: Nakahara Mai

31 March, 2008 (23:47) | profile, 中原麻衣 | By: j1m0ne

Amazingly, I managed to produce another seiyuu profile before the turn of the century. I’ve finally reached double digits! I thought profile #10 should be reserved for someone special so I decided to choose someone from my top 10 favourite female seiyuu list. Someone who’s preferrably young, hip and visually pleasant - that narrowed my list down to only 2-3 candidates. So after some deliberation I settled on someone who I’ve been a fan of from the very first time I heard her voice. Ladies and gentlemen, the life and times of Nakahara Mai.

Seiyuu Profile #9: Ito Shizuka The Yuri Pimp

17 February, 2008 (23:30) | profile, seiyuu, 伊藤静 | By: j1m0ne

Wow, a seiyuu profile - something I haven’t done in a really long time (the last one was in August’ 07). I knew I said I’d do one for Ito Shizuka a long, long time ago so rejoice, Shizuka-sama fans! I’ve finally got it done ^^;

Warning: Image Heavy.

The focus of this post is Ito Shizuka’s harem. But first, a little intro to the woman behind all those sexy voices.

Seiyuu Profile #8: Satou Rina

26 August, 2007 (07:24) | profile, 佐藤利奈 | By: j1m0ne

Satou Rina is often overlooked, and in fact, I don’t think a lot of people actually recognise her name at all. And if they do, it’s probably because she voices Negi Springfield. I myself am quite a fan of her voice, and think it’d be nice if people knew a little more about her.

Seiyuu Profile #7: Kobayashi Yu

27 June, 2007 (01:30) | profile, seiyuu | By: j1m0ne

Since she’s already the subject of so many of my ‘Misc’ posts I just thought I’d do the deed and get her profile written. This is probably the easiest one I’ve done so far as my brain is full to the brim with useless Kobayashi trivia anyway, I’m a keen fan of her voice work… amongst other things.

Seiyuu Profile #6: Kitamura Eri

22 June, 2007 (06:15) | profile, seiyuu | By: j1m0ne

A short (and sweet) profile on Kitamura Eri, one of the up-and-coming seiyuu that people should keep an eye on & an ear out for. Like fellow young gun Inoue Marina, 2007’s proving to be a particularly good year for the teenager and she looks set to have a bright future in the industry.

‘Special’ Seiyuu Profile #5: The Madness of Kaneda Tomoko

18 June, 2007 (22:54) | profile, seiyuu | By: j1m0ne


Bizarrely, this post began life as a profile on Matsuki Miyu but I lost the plot halfway through ^^; I wasn’t gonna label this a profile cos to be honest; it’s mostly made up of random videos and mostly useless stuff but what the hell. I’m still stuck on two I’ve been working on for the last month so I’ll just get this one up to hold the fort.

Seiyuu Profile #4: Tai Yuuki

6 May, 2007 (05:15) | profile, seiyuu | By: j1m0ne

This is one of the shorter profiles I’ll write, eventhough it’s been about a month in the works. Got caught up in my work halfway through and sort of forgot most of what I intended to say ^^;

I remember four years ago (2003 if you can’t count) in a packed spring season (obviously not as packed as this/last year), one of the shows I initially picked up was E’s Otherwise. The premise had me interested - superheroes, it must be action-packed and exciting! Or, so I thought. It turned out to be incredibly dull and I gave up after 4-5 episodes. I guess I should’ve learned from my bad experiences with Tokyo Underground…. The one positive I did take from the series however, was the good seiyuu cast; the likes of Watanabe Akeno and Fukuen Misato were just starting out, and the lead role was voiced by little known newcomer Tai Yuuki.

Seiyuu Profile #3: Hirohashi Ryo

10 April, 2007 (19:22) | profile, seiyuu | By: j1m0ne

Someone a little more established this time. The baby-faced assassin has been a personal favourite ever since I heard Hirohashi debut in one of my most loved anime Haibane Renmei. Her performance as the innocent, shy Rakka tugged at my heart (I’m just a sentimental fool ^^).

Hirohashi can do cute, loli-bait characters, impossibly cheerful teenage girls, deadpan, and yuri-yuri ninjas. Oh, and she was a mahou shoujo in Magical Canan but I doubt anyone watched that.
