It’s been a good few months since I’ve covered what Kitamura Eri’s been up to, but rest assured she’s been keeping herself busy with various (shady & dubious) activities…

Stalking

Remember last time when I said KitaEri made a ‘glowing’ (read: obsessed) report about attending Mizuki Nana’s Saitama live? Well, one of Nana-sama’s staff members told her about it, and Nana then recorded a message for KitaEri’s ChoRaji show (ep #48) and the radio staff played it back without Kitamura knowing in advance. Nana recalled how they first met during the Minami-ke recordings; KitaEri told her that she knew of Nana from watching Sister Princess (lol), and that she loved POWER GATE and so on. Kitamura sounded so happy I swear she was about to burst into tears.

Inoue Marina and Chihara Minori, the other two unfortunate victims of Kitamura’s obssessions continue to be plagued by her unwanted attention. Last week’s Minami-ke no Minakike radio show had Kitamura as a guest and she spent half the time taking photos of Minorin but none of poor unphotogenic, unloved Sato Rina XD

There was also a get-together for the Minami-ke seiyuu cast about 2 weeks ago and KitaEri spent most of the time hounding poor Marina, no doubt. In her blog Kitamura mentions that she was so excited to be with Marina that she couldn’t talk properly and that when the two of them were finally alone, she got Marina to sing her an acapella version of Beautiful Story. Hardly the most romantic choice, is it?

Live Karaoke

Listening to ChoRaji is never boring – it can turn up some of the most bizarre moments, like when Kitamura plays one of her own songs, or songs from anime series she’s been in. Thrice so far, she’s either sung along to the song on air or added her own ad-libs and imitations – the amazing thing is that it’s all done live.

Rasen is probably my favourite KitaEri song – it’s Shiranui Akeno’s (Seto no Hanayome) charasong. She already sounds awesome on record but if you fast forward to about 3:00 in the clip above, you can hear her randomly singing along to the song – pretty darn good 0_o


The two clips above are of KitaEri going crazy and imitating all the characters from the shows involved – the first is Katamichi Catchball from Potemayo (you can hear Hatsushiba, Pote, Guchuko, Nene etc) and the second is Hanamaru Sensation from Kodomo no Jikan (perfect imitation of Kadowaki Maii!). The echoing sounds she does in Katamichi are crazy -_- If there was any justice, she’d win Best Personality at next year’s Seiyuu Awards but of course it ain’t gonna happen.

Bought a new Mac

To add to her collection of toys which now includes a PS2, an XBOX360, at least two DSes, a PSP and a Wii. I always hear stories of how poor seiyuu are, so I wonder where the heck KitaEri gets all the money to support her exorbitant spending habits from :/

Building a harem

Despite displaying stalker tendencies, Minorin, Nana and Marina have yet to put a restraining order on KitaEri In an attempt to console herself for being unable to entice the trio to the dark side, Kitamura Eri is trying to assemble a harem of her own, although it’s made up of lesser-known seiyuu – she must’ve brainwashed them into worshipping her somehow XD She’s even passed on her methods of harassment to Ohara Momoko and Morinaga Rika (as seen above).

L-R: Ohara Momoko, KitaEri, Hirota Shion, Akiyama Kaoru
Ohara Momoko (Momo for short) is who KitaEri calls kakkoii/ikemen (i.e. she looks like a guy), and Kaoru is the another one who fulfills her meganekko fetish. And Shion…oh, Shion XD

Hirota Shion

One of KitaEri’s latest obsessions – Shion, or simply ‘Nu’ as she calls her. They first met at Winter Comiket last year as I mentioned here, but they seem to be getting on very well these days – Hirota has this fixation over Kitamura’s Yui (from Koharu Biyori) voice for some reason. For once, KitaEri has someone fapping over her instead of she herself fapping over somebody else. But the feeling’s probably mutual since Kitamura was talking about buying her an Utena (engagement) ring.

This picture of KitaEri’s…boobs was taken by Hirota. Er yeah, well Shion is a bit on the flat side. She protested that people (referring to KitaEri, Momo etc) shouldn’t laugh at her after touching her chest, and asked all of them to donate one (bra) size to her.

Anyway, Shion posted a blog entry dedicated to KitaEri the other day:
キタエリかわいいよキタエリ (KitaEri Kawaii yo KitaEri)
私のことが大好きなのがよく伝わってきた!! (I got the message that (you) love me!!)
あなたと合体したい!! (I want to gattai* with you!!)
あなたと合体したい!! (I want to gattai with you!!)
あああああむしろキタエリと合体したいいいぃいぃぃぃいい (Aaaaaah or should I say, I want to gattai with KitaEriiiiiiiiii)

キタエリ好きだよキタエリ (KitaEri suki dayo KitaEri)
…..
あああああああ萌えた萌えた (Aaaaaaah moeta moeta)
…….
ピーポーピーポーピーポー (Piipo x3 – ambulance sounds)
オカアサンアタシモウダメ (Dear mother, I am beyond saving)
*gattai usually refers to the act of mecha merging together.

Shindou Kei & Kadowaki Maii

The Kojika trio have formed a strong bond – Maita and Eri are like twins (Eri is obviously the evil one), and Shindo is the black sheep of the family.

The one that got away: Asumi Kana

So yeah, as I’ve mentioned before – on Buso Shinki Radio KitaEri asked Asumin to marry her (結婚しようよ！) and got a flat NO (嫌だ。) in return. Oh, the heartbreak.

And that’s it for another few months in KitaEri-land. See you next time!
