Ohara Sayaka gets married
Another seiyuu off the market – Ohara Sayaka has announced that she registered her marriage today, 6th December 2009 to an unnamed actor 1 year her senior. It also happens to be her 34th birthday today! Saaya has voiced many popular characters over her 10-year career so far, including Alicia in the ARIA series, Layla Hamilton in Kaleido Star, Ichihara Yuko in xxxHOLiC and Milly Ashford in the Code Geass series. She can currently be heard as Beatrice in Umineko, Erza in Fairy Tail and Melfi in Queen’s Blade.
The first time I noticed Saaya was in 2003 when she got three major roles at the same time – in BONES’s Scrapped Princess as Raquel Casull, in Kaleido Star and in Popotan as Ai. At that point it struck me that she sounded so similar to Inoue Kikuko with her ‘Ara-ara ufufu’ motherly manner of speaking, although I prefer her in the tougher, sexier roles like Layla, Yuuko and Moyashimon’s Hasegawa. And she’s good at insulting and putting down Fukuyama Jun xD
おめでとうございます、さぁやさん！Saaya got married like Alicia-san did but I hope that doesn’t mean she’s going to retire too >_<

SPOILERS WTF
But congratulations to her. I hope it doesn’t end in divorce. :3
I love spoilers!!!! XD
Wait haven’t you watched ARIA yet
Well that puts a nail on the coffin of the Yuzu-nee X Riki-chan X Saaya saga forever ;_;
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh?! Congratz to her, and the ARIA reference is so true. >_< Love that scene.
Wow, congratulations!
I just hope she doesn’t retire. I do love hearing her voice now and then.
I’d have said “Congratulations!”, but it’d sound like I’m congratulating your marriage to Saaya.
And, like everyone else, keeping fingers crossed that she’s not retiring with this.
OMFG SHE’S GETTING MARRIED??? I absolutely adored her Alicia and her Yuuko, I really really really hope she’s not gonna retire!
Hope she doesn’t retire. She voices good wackos too; liked her as Laura in Mnemosyne.
Now that you mention it, I hope she doesn’t retire either. She’s an awesome VA ;A;
Husband: “Dear, your laugh is undignified”
Congrats and happy birthday to her! If she can, she’d probably be able to juggle her seiyuu/marriage life. She only recently grabbed my interest as Beatrice from Umineko and would love to see her in new roles. If she can’t manage that balance and retires, then I can always check out Aria or Moyashimon.
ARA ARA~ what news!! I really hope she doesnt retire either she is on my top 5 all time fav VAs and the fact that she can laugh like ufufu~ to *CRACKLE**CRACKLE**CRACKLE* KIHIHIHIHIHIHI makes her awesome….and Yuuko <3
Never watched Aria.
Congrat’ . I wonder if the wish of Yuuko-san is to be married. At least “her voice” realized it ^^.
Yep me too, I prefer her Onee-san role than her Mother role like… Inoue Kikuko
@かな
LOL. Too bad Riki isn’t 1 year older than Saaya XD
[...] Yuzu-nee has a twitter account! She sounds a bit too happy that Saaya is getting married www (happy birthday and congrats to Saaya). Hige will be the next guest in Eruru no [...]
No way that she retires. Congrats to her by the way. She still can act and she has a good amount of years ahead.
I just had a horrible (?) thought.
Link this article with your previous (Murakami Koichi’s getting married) one.
A late response but…congratulations on your marriage Sayaa! Though, in my mind, I always had Sayaa-chan paired up with Koyama Rikiya. T.T
[...] So if you’ve watched Aria, you might recall the ending of season 3. Now read j1m0ne’s splendid spoiler. [...]
