Are you familiar with demon slayer and the AC JPN dubbing , if you do. Then be prepared for this. The demon slayer voice casting has 6 VAs who does the voices of the AC protagonists

Altair & Uzui

Ezio & Sanemi

Connor & haganezuka

Arno & tanjiro’s dad

Jacob & enmu

Bayek & yahaba “arrow demon”

Aya & Daki

Imagine them meeting the voice counter parts

Oh, yeah, I’m a bit familiar with the Japanese dub of Assassin’s Creed and I watch Demon Slayer when it’s airing in Japan then I rewatch it in the English dub because I enjoy watching English dubs in general XD.

Before anything…

Imma list the names of their JP voices and a few other characters they voice. (And I will be focusing on the ones listed by @ullyaboo because… well… this would get too long if I start listing everybody...)

Altaïr is voiced by Katsuyuki Konishi

(Sombron/Hubert/Xander/Randal from Fire Emblem, @princesslikesfanfics might recognize him as Tory Innis from Ancient Magus’ Bride, Diavolo from Jojo, Lloyd Irving from Tales series, America/Canada from Hetalia, and mecha fans might recognize him as our bestest aniki Kamina)

No, seriously.

Can we just take a moment to think about how Altaïr’s JP voice also voiced these characters as well:

Also, shoutout to him being the voice of the dead big brother of my Trails blorbo XD

Ezio is voiced by Tomokazu Seki

(HE VOICED MIGUEL O’HARA IN THE JP DUB OF ATSV, oh and Toad in the Mario movie, Jojo fans will probably find it funny that he voices Father Pucci and his stand, Panda from JJK, Gilgamesh from Fates, mecha fans would remember his “SHINING FISTS” as Domon Kasshu, he’s also Toya in Cardcaptor Sakura, and Van Fanel of Vision of Escaflowne (one of the earliest isekai anime))

Ratonhnhaké:ton is voiced by Daisuke Namikawa

(Lindel from Ancient Magus’ Bride, Anasui AND Giogio from Jojo, Yamato from Digimon, Persona 4’s MC, the jp voice of Sekiro from… well… Sekiro, Richard from Tales series, Italy from Hetalia, and Lupin the 3rd’s Goemon)

This deserves to be seen: Ratonhnhaké:ton’s JP Voice also voices Oikawa (Haikyuu) and Italy (Hetalia - also Romano) (this means that Ratonhnhaké:ton sang the Hetalia ending song)

And he’s the JP voice of Jake Muller, Wesker’s kid in RE6.

Arno is voiced by Shinichiro Miki

(ROY MUSTANG from FMA, Randy Orlando from Trails, Sir Nighteye from BNHA/MHA, James from Pokemon, Alucard from Castlevania, Lockon Stratos (*haro voice* Lockon, Lockon, Lockon, incoherent sobbing) from Gundam, Hijikata from Hakuoki)

(side note: Elise’s JP voice is Toyoguchi Megumi who voices Rengoku’s mother and I don’t want to mess up Tanjiro’s family but��� half-brothers Tanjiro and Rengoku AU???)

Jacob is voiced by Daisuke Hirakawa

(Kakyoin from Jojo, Cao Lee and Rufus Albarea from Trails, Rei from Free, Makoto Ito from School Days (lollol, at least Jacob doesn't have the worst love life in this list), and Orlando Bloom in Kingdom Hearts games XD)

Bayek is voiced by Jun Fukuyama (JP voices of Origin (and Valhalla) weren't in Behind the Voice Actor so I had to doublecheck with JP wiki XD)

(Persona 5’s MC, Lelouch Vi Brittania/Zero from Code Geass, Yukio from Blue Exorcist, Korosensei from Assassination Classroom, Maximilian from Valkyria Chronicles, Watanuki from xxxHolic)

Aya is voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro

(female Robin from Fire Emblem, Milla Maxwell from Tales, Katalina from GBF, Elizabeth from Persona, Jolyn Cujoh from Jojo, Shinku in Rozen Maiden, Franziska von Karma in Ace Attorney, Celty from Durarara!!, Touko from Danganronpa)

Now…

For the actual ask portion:

Altaïr would probably be annoyed at Uzui at first because he’s so flashy. They’d probably spar and Altaïr would start to respect him after understanding that, underneath all that ‘flashiness’, Uzui is strong and has conviction (side note: Uzui’s three wives makes me think Makio - Maria, Hinatsuru - Adha and Suma - Kadar XD)

Ezio would think of Sanemi as having skills and potential but he won’t like his attitude. AC2!Ezio would definitely butt heads with Sanemi a lot, especially after he sees how Sanemi acts around his younger brother (since he doesn’t know the whole story) and he’d definitely try to act like a nice big brother to Genya, Brotherhood!Ezio and Revelations!Ezio would not be provoked by Sanemi and act more like an older brother/mentor role that Sanemi doesn’t want at all and thinks is super annoying.

Haganezuka would totally like Ratonhnhaké:ton because Ratonhnhaké:ton would take care of any weapon he receives from Haganezuka. Ratonhnhaké:ton will also be willing to listen to Haganezuka talk about swords for houurrrss. Achilles would have to be the one to smack Haganezuka to get out of the homestead after giving Ratonhnhaké:ton his sword. (Why is Achilles there? Idk, crossover???)

All I can think of is Arno getting adopted by the Kamado family. Tanjuro is quite frail and he’s been sick for a while now so their meeting would probably remind Arno of his late father. But, man, just imagine Arno dancing Hinokami Kagura…

Oh god. Enmu would totally fuck with Jacob using his dreams/nightmares. Like, every pain and weakness Jacob has, Enmu would take advantage of it. Worst of all? Jack the Ripper's actions would definitely haunt Jacob till the day he dies so Enmu using Jack in the attack would really hurt. Enmu wasn’t even a good person as a human but considering Jacob’s luck and bad judge of character? Absolutely won’t be surprised if he invites human!Enmu to the Rooks as a ‘doctor’.

I think Bayek has a good chance of taking out Yahaba. Dude got an actual flaming sword in the main story and I’m sure Reda would have a weapon made of Scarlet Crimson Iron Sand and Scarlet Ore for some reason and, as long as Bayek understood how Yahaba’s blood demon art works, he’d be fine. Bayek took out giant gods (in the Animus), he can take out this demon.

Oh, Aya would not like Daki at all. She might even be reminded of Cleopatra a bit because of her arrogant and dismissive personality which wouldn’t help the situation. They’d definitely fight and… Aya would probably need help on this one. I’m not sure if she ever got into any Isu BS that ended in a boss fight so I can’t be sure how she would handle fighting Daki and her obi attacks. Human!Daki though? Aya would definitely recruit her and her brother to the Hidden Ones if she found them as kids. But if she saw her as her usual cruel self? Yeah, Aya’s not going to like her.

If anyone wants an actual Demon Slayer x AC crossover idea, let me know?

Chaldea, which observes the future of the Earth, has confirmed the fact that human history has collapsed since 2017. The "promised future" until 2115, which had certainly existed until yesterday, suddenly disappeared without warning. why. Why. who. how. A provincial city in Japan in the year 2004. "An unobservable area" that had never existed before appeared here. Chaldea hypothesized that this was the cause of human extinction, and decided to carry out the sixth experiment, which was still in the experimental stage. "It's time travel to the past." A forbidden ritual that transforms humans into spirits and sends them to the past, intervening in events to reveal or destroy singularities in space-time. "The name is Human Rights Protection Order, Grand Order." It is a general term for those who fight against fate and confront human history in order to protect humanity.

DIABOLIK LOVERS MORE,BLOOD Imajin Webshop Tokuten Drama CD “Body Swap Panic ~Triplets Version~”

Original title: 入れ替わり騒動 ～三つ子編～

Source: DIABOLIK LOVERS Imajin Webshop Tokuten Drama CD “Body Swap Panic ~Triplets Version~” [CD not owned by me]

Audio: Here

Seiyuu: Midorikawa Hikaru, Kaji Yuki & Hirakawa Daisuke

Translator’s note: This was both hilarious but also a little confusing because I had to use 200% brain power to both translate the dialogue, as well as actually write down the name of the correct character. xD Huge props to the seiyuu for altering their voices to actually make it seems like it was a different boy inside the body though. Especially hearing Ayato’s crude language with Kanato’s voice was very funny. 

→  LIKE MY TRANSLATIONS? SUPPORT ME ON KO-FI!

Kanato: I told you many times that pudding is mine, didn’t I!? Yet, you’re just too cruel, Ayato! I can’t believe this!!

Ayato: Geh...Shut up! Can’t you get the Four-Eyes to make you some more pudding!? Geez!!

Kanato: Uu... (sobs) T-That’s not...the issue...I...wanted to...eat the pudding that’s in your belly right now...!!

Ayato: ...What do you want me to do then!? Fuck off! Don’t cry! Will you be satisfied if I throw it up again or somethin’!?

Kanato: ...That wouldn’t be edible, right!?

Laito: Hmm~ What a peaceful day it is. You think so too, don’t you, Bitch-chan? Nfu~ Don’t you think the voices of little kids quarreling, echoing in the distance fits the image of what you guys describe as ‘peaceful times’ perfectly? Macarons are way more delicious than pudding though, right? And if you were to add a few drops of your blood in the mix...Nfu~ And voila, we have created the perfect dessert!

Laito wraps his arms around you.

*Rustle rustle*

Laito: That being said...Give Laito-kun (1) some of your addictively sweet and rich blood, please~? 

Ayato: Oi, you pervert! Don’t be touchin’ Chichinashi without my permission!

Laito: ...Woah there. You were watching? I was convinced you were too busy with your little pudding war, so I would get to suck Bitch-chan’s blood in the meantime~

Kanato: ...!! Laito! I will not allow for that to happen!

Laito: Eeh~? You too, Kanato-kun? Bummer! ...Anyway, what happened to the pudding incident? 

Kanato: The case has not been resolved yet. However, the blood of the girl standing there with a dumb expression on her face is more important right now.

Ayato: So you prefer Chichinashi’s blood over pudding, huh? Hahaha!

Kanato: Ayato! Are you making fun of me?

Ayato: No way. Who is actually crazy enough to provoke a lunatic like you? Anyway, I’m the only one who gets to do with Chichinashi’s blood as they please.

Laito: Nfu~ I find it hard to agree with that statement. Besides, that’s not something us guys get to decide, right? 

Kanato: Even so, it doesn’t feel right to let that little pest over there make the decision either.

Ayato: What a pain...It’s first come, first served! Chichinashi, come here!

Ayato tries to tug you his way.

*Rustle rustle*

Laito: Ayato-kun, if you think everything will always go your way in life, you’re gravely mistaken!

Laito joins in, trying to steal you back.

*Rustle rustle*

Kanato: Hey, Laito! Get your hands off her! ...Don’t touch what belongs to me...without permission!

Kanato joins in too.

*Rustle rustle* 

Ayato: Ugh...Kuh...Let go...! Chichinashi belongs to...me!!

Kanato: I won’t let go...I definitely won’t! This girl...is mine!

Laito: ...Oh come on, cut it out...! For one, I was the one who attempted to suck her blood is me!

The triplets continue fighting over you.

Ayato: Argh...Fuck!

Kanato: Let...go!!

Laito: Hey...! You’re nearly tearing off her arm, see!? 

Ayato: In your dreams! 

Kanato: ...Ugh! I’ve...reached my limit. Ah!

Kanato lets go, which causes all three triplets to fly backwards and collide.

Ayato, Kanato & Laito: Wah!?

*CRASH*

--> This is where the ‘body/personality swap’ happens. Ayato is now in Kanato’s body, Kanato is in Laito’s body and Laito is in Ayato’s body. For my translations, I will put the name of whoever is inside the body in between parathesis to make it less confusing. 

Kanato (Ayato): Ow ow ow...Fuck...I hit my head hella hard...

Laito (Kanato): Geez...That’s why I warned you two. If you had just handed her over right awaーー Huh? Wait... ...!? Eh? Why...am I...?

Ayato (Laito): ...!? What is going on...? I am right in front of my own eyes? ...Wait. Huh? Huhuhuh!? I’ve become Ayato-kun!? 

Kanato (Ayato): ...!? For real!? Actually...I’ve turned into Kanato!

Laito (Kanato): I...I’m Laito...What is going on...!? 

Ayato (Laito): Uhm...Basically our personalities have been swapped as a result of the collision’s impact, right? 

Kanato (Ayato): So Laito’s inside my body and uhm...I’m in Kanato’s body while Laito is in Kanato’s body...Like that?

Laito (Kanato): T-This can’t be...I can’t believe it...However, this is reality...Right!?

Ayato (Laito): Nfu~ This is rather interesting. 

Kanato (Ayato): Well, you do have a point! Who would think we’d ever swap bodies like that!

Laito (Kanato): I wonder if we can swap our personalities voluntarily? In that case, it might be convenient in a lot of ways...

Ayato (Laito): Chichinashi! Chichinashi, chichinashi! 

You tilt your head to the side.

Ayato (Laito): Eh? What’s wrong, Bitch-chan? Ah, no! I just wanted to try and say ‘Chichinashi’ like Ayato-kun does for once~ Nfu~ 

Laito (Kanato): Ah... I can sort of relate to that, Laito ーー Wait, this is kind of confusing. The outside looks like Ayato, but Laito’s the one inside.

Kanato (Ayato): Aahn? What’s your problem, Chichinashi? It’s confusing? Who cares if things stay like this. Nothin’ we can do ‘bout it.

Ayato (Laito): Mmh, yeah! It’d only be confusing at the very beginning. Nfu~ 

Laito (Kanato): Right. Honestly, I would be fine with things staying like this too. Besides, there is a little something I would like to try out.

Ayato (Laito): Ah, right. I agree. I’m a little curious to find out what it’s like to suck blood with this body~

Kanato (Ayato): Right? I’m sure everyone’s palate is a lil’ different. That’s the part which intrigues me the most. Oi, Chichinashi! Lemme suck you blood! 

You refuse. 

Laito (Kanato): ...Eh? We can’t? But why...? Uu...You...You are...won’t listen to my...to our request!? 

Ayato (Laito): Hm? The situation is throwing you off? Well, I do get where you’re coming from, but you’ve already gotten a taste of all three of our fangs, right? Don’t you want a little something special to spice things up every now and then? Nfu~ It might feel ever better than usual to have your blood sucked by one of us now that we’ve swapped bodies?

You shake your head. 

Kanato (Ayato): Aah!? You don’t believe that!? ...Che, you’re bein’ way too cocky, Chichinashi!

You tell them it’s bad for them too.

Kanato (Ayato): Aah...? It’s inconvenient? Besides, something we’ve all been keepin’ secret might get exposed this way? 

You elaborate. 

Ayato (Laito): Something we’ve been keeping a secret? Hm...I can think of so many things on top of my head, how troublesome. Nfu~ 

Laito (Kanato): Well, that’s not surprising coming from you. As for me...Well, you do have a point that it’d be troublesome if my secret hideout for snacks were to get discovered. On top of that, carrying Teddy around in my arms while looking like Laito somehow gives me the creeps.

Kanato (Ayato): Well, you do have a point...But what should we do to go back to our usual selves? 

Laito (Kanato): Perhaps we can simply try and bump our heads against each other once more? However...I’m not very fond of pain.

Kanato (Ayato): Exactly! I’m passin’ on that too. That being said, Chichinashi, we’re not too troubled by this, so let’s go for a different route.

Laito (Kanato): Yeah...It might just fix itself after a night’s sleep...Wait? Huh? Where did she go?

Kanato (Ayato): Aah!? ...You’re right. She’s gone. 

Ayato (Laito): Did she run? 

You walk up to them.

Laito (Kanato): Ah...You’ve returned. ...Huh? Where did you get that hammer from?

You explain.

Ayato (Laito): You borrowed it from Reiji...? Uhm, Bitch-chan, hold up one second...You’re giving us a scary look...You can’t possibly be thinking of...hitting our heads with that thing, right?

You swing the hammer at them.

*THUD*

Ayato (Laito): ...Uwah!? Seems like that’s exactly what she has planned!!

Kanato (Ayato): Wah!? Time-out! Chichinashi, time out!! If you wanna hit us on the head so badly, does it really have to be with that hella big thing!? 

Laito (Kanato): T...This is outrageous!! No matter how badly we usually treat you, you’re actually trying to hit us with that!? 

*Swoosh*

Kanato (Ayato): ...That was close! Anyway, Chichinashi, did you have our violent personalities rubbed off on you or somethiーー

*Swoosh*

Kanato (Ayato): ...Wah!? 

Ayato (Laito): C-Calm down, Bitch-chan!

Kanato (Ayato): Ugh...In this case, runnin’ is the best option!

*Swoosh*

Laito (Kanato): ...Woah!? W-What are you doing...!? Violence isn’t the answer...!! Uwah!?

*Swoosh*

Kanato (Ayato): Why is Chichinashi this desperate anyway...!? I don’t understand!

Ayato (Laito): P-Perhaps we should take this as a compliment and assume she liked us as we were?

Laito (Kanato): Either way, we have to make a run for it soon or we’ll get crushed!

Kanato (Ayato): Ugh...That’s the one thing I can’t let happen. Bein’ defeated by Chichinashi just doesn’t sound right!

*Swoosh*

Ayato (Laito): Bitch-chaaaan, calm down!

*Swoosh swoosh*

Laito (Kanato): The pudding...! Right! I’ll give you my leftover pudding, okay!?

*Swoosh*

Kanato (Ayato): Aah, this sucks!! Cut it out already, geez...! Haah...So what if this situation doesn’t feel quite right (2)...!!? 

ーー THE END ーー

Translation notes

(1) In anime/manga/games, it is not uncommon for characters (especially playful/cheerful characters) to refer to themselves in third-person, sometimes even adding a suffix to their own name. However, please note that this would seem odd even for a native Japanese speaker and is something which you would NEVER encounter in real life. 

(2) I struggled a lot with this last line because it’s the final sentence of the track so I feel like it must leave some sort of impact, The term 違和感 or ‘iwakan’ means ‘a sense of discomfort’ or ‘a feeling that something is not quite right’. As you can tell, you need a lot more words in English than just having the one convenient term in Japanese. xD

Some Tweets Remember Keiji Fujiwara

Keiji Fujiwara died of cancer at the age of 55. The news was devastating for the seiyuu community. Many seiyuu are remembering and looking back on their times with Fujiwara and the impact he made on them. A lot of anime I’ve watched wouldn’t have been the same without Fujiwara. From Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood to Dr. Stone, he shaped a lot of characters that I look back and smile thinking about.

Taketatsu Ayana (Taketatsu and Fujiwara both voiced characters in Dagashi Kashi and co hosted a series of bonus videos released with the Blu-rays of the series)

Fujiwara Keiji-san.

When we had a photograph session together for a TV show, even though you said, "I'm shy, so I can't really talk much," after the session started and I was nervous you kindly threw me a lifeline and chatted with me a lot, and even at live events and such you've saved me so much.

I wanted to spend more time with you.

I wanted to thank you directly.

_______

Seki Tomokazu (Seki and Fujiwara both voiced characters for the same series several times including PSYCHO-PASS, Sengoku BASARA, and Hajime no Ippo)

The way you looked when you came to the studio with your script sticking out of your back pocket was so cool, and I often copied you. When we went to karaoke together, I would put on a song that had a video of your acting as a prank and put you in a bind so many times. I wanted to play around with you again. This feels too soon... Fujiwara-san. Truly, thank you for everything.

_______

Ogata Megumi

I've had the honor of working with you on various, many sets but... my strongest impression, is actually not from an anime, but from the drama CD "Radical Hospital".

Dr. Sakaki... Please say it's a joke like you always do...?

Fujiwara Keiji-san. Truly, thank you for everything. Please rest peacefully.

_______

Ise Mariya (Ise and Fujiwara both voiced main characters in HUNTER X HUNTER, and Ise references Fujiwara's role as Leorio in this tweet)

What I remember is His white shirt and the sunglasses he wore His gallant figure standing before the microphone His bashful smile when having friendly conversations His stylish behavior when everyone goes drinking Both his voice and his acting were so cool Everything about him was wonderful

Keiji-san really felt like Leorio to me I have so many pleasant and fun memories Thank you so much

_______

Shimazaki Nobunaga

Fujiwara Keiji-san, I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

_______

Morikubo Showtaro

The tears won't stop.

_______

Inoue Marina

His voice, his acting, his smile, I loved them all.

_______

Park Romi (Park and Fujiwara both voiced important characters in Fullmetal Alchemist)

He just recovered...

Be it with Hagane, or Muji, or FA he was everyone's older brother...

He truly was Lieutenant Colonel Hughes.

Early Far too early...

Kei-chan You fought hard against what ailed you... Please rest well...

Your casual comments Even now I treasure.

Tonight I honor you...

I pray you rest in peace...

Notes: I'm not positive, but I believe in regards to the second line

"Hagane" likely refers to the first airing of Fullmetal Alchemist in 2003 that used the title 「鋼の錬金術師」 (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi).

"Muji" seems like it refers to Zoids, the first Zoids anime series that is often referred to colloquially as "Muji Zoids", "No Label Zoids", to differentiate it from other Zoid series. In this series, Fujiwara voiced Irvine, a main supporting character and older brother figure to the main characters.

"FA" likely refers to the second airing of Fullmetal Alchemist in 2009 that used the titled 「鋼の錬金術師 FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST」 and thus is sometimes referred to as "FA".

Hanae Natsuki

This is too sad...

_______

Toshiyuki Toyonaga

My heart aches... The words won't come out...

Inoue Kazuhiko

Eh, Fujiwara Keiji... No way. It's too early. I remembered well the times we worked together in the studio. It's too early. I'm so saddened.

_______

Kaji Yuuki (Kaji and Fujiwara both voiced characters for the same series several times including Magi and Shingeki no Kyojin)

Keiji-san. I wanted to talk with you more. Wouldn't it be wonderful if I had a father like you, if I could become a man like you, that kind of stuff, always, I thought to myself... I should have told you so. I wanted to talk with you more. I'm full of regret. I want to see you.

_______

Yasumoto Hiroki

Words don't suffice. He was cool. Truly. We had talked about him visiting my place and drinking some unopened wine.

_______

Nakata Jouji First tweet, and reply

He was shy and gave off the impression that he didn't like superficial relationships, but when I tried talking to him he replied with a bashful smile, that's what I recall. When I heard he returned to work and was doing independent work, I thought on my own that he was doing well, but... You must have had it hard, huh. However, you weren't the kind of person to say that out loud... You stayed true to yourself until the very end. I pray for you.

I wanted to meet with you and talk with you again.

_______

Konishi Katsuyuki

No way. When I was a fledgling, because his place was in the neighborhood he invited me for a meal, and I was really happy about that. I wanted to meet with you again.

_______

Shouta Aoi

I can no longer meet you again. By all means, I wanted to meet you again.

Just how much encouragement I received from the acting of that wonderful voice I grew accustomed to hearing from a young age.

From now on and always that wonderful voice of yours will remain in our hearts and ears.

Thank you for all the wonderful times you gave us.

_______

Ono Kensho

Fujiwara Keiji-san. He really is cool, and he is someone I look up to. We have the same birthday, and on my own I felt like we had an affinity... I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

Fujiwara-san...

I thought I could meet you again someday at the studio, truly unfortunate.

Thank you for everything. Please rest in peace...

I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

Kei-chan, I'm so sad.

You fought against illness for a long time... You truly gave it your all. Please rest well in heaven.

I won't forget your shy, bashful, and kind smile.

Koshimizu Ami (Koshimizu and Fujiwara both voiced important characters in Eureka 7, and Koshimizu references her role as Anemone and Fujiwara's role as Holland in this tweet, as well as Tsujitani Kouji who voiced Dewey Novak in Eureka 7 and passed away in 2018)

Dewey and Holland, please stay a little longer.

I want you to stay. I wanted you to stay.

If you're not there, we can't fly freely...

Because you were there, we were able to live freely.

Thank you but I still don't want to say goodbye.

Sorry that Anemone is like this. If I could say one selfish thing please come back...

_______

Han Megumi (Han and Fujiwara both voiced main characters in HUNTER X HUNTER, and Han references Fujiwara's role as Leorio in this tweet)

Just last night, during HUNTER's rebroadcast, we just saw off Leorio as he departed for his trip, Fujiwara-san.

Family and comrade, always thinking of his friends and a warm man, a perfect fit, my beloved senpai.

Always with the message title "Miss lovely forehead"

Arisa Komiya

Fujiwara Keiji-san. I had the honor of working with you for 1 year on Go-Busters, you were always so cool on set, it was my first dubbing experience and I learned so much from you. I wanted to work with you again. I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

_______

Ryotaro Okiayu

I participated in "Hoshi Koe" at the Saitama venue last year, and you attended, Fujiwara-san.

I read your letters.

The last time I met you was back stage there.

It had been several years before then.

That's how it goes.

Thanks so much for everything.

Note: Hoshi Koe is the name of a series of events held in Japan by AIR AGENCY, a talent management and production company founded by Fujiwara Keiji in 2006.

_______

Kenjiro Tsuda

His white shirt His light colored sunglasses His cynical smile His casual way of walking into the studio His unshaven face His still shadow at Planetarium His husky voice His retreating figure as he left His appearance in a coat when he slowly spoke in his last moments

was cool

Thank you so much

Note: Planetarium is likely also referencing Hoshi Koe, which was held at planetariums in various cities in Japan.

_______

Yamamoto Nozomi

We acted together for the first time in UN-GO, and a while later when I greeted you at another set, you remembered me, saying, "I've met you before, right?" After that, when on the set for Utawarerumono you noticed my Ironman iPhone case and chatted with me, I was truly happy about each and every thing. I pray that you rest in peace.

_______

Kondo Kanako

I can't believe it. I really liked your cool roughness. Fujiwara-san. I pray that you rest in peace.

_______

Kudou Haruka

Is it because of the air pressure that my head hurts, or because I cried too much that my head hurts, I can't sort out my feelings. However, more than these sad feelings, I want to say so many times, "thank you."

Fujiwara-san.

We were together for my seiyuu debut work "Honey and Clover", and from there with "Noein" and "DEATH NOTE", our work together continued. I didn't know my right hand from my left, and you gave me so much advice.

On set you always spoiled me, listening to my trivial chatter with a smile.

I entered college, and even when I cut off all ties to the industry up to that point and distanced myself from work, every half a year you would send me a message asking "Are you doing all right?"

I entered my fourth year of college, and when I said to you, "I want to return to work!" you got a little angry, but you earnestly heard me out. Even though I caused trouble to a lot of people, you saying "Welcome Back!" with a smile has always supported me.

4 years after returning to work, when I was worried that I wasn't doing as well as I had hoped, you said "It'll be all right!" and gave me a push on the back, and I was able to move forward.

I really have been spoiled by you for so so long.

You taught me so many things, I couldn't hope to write them all out. About acting, about movies, about novels, about life.

Even now I still have the novel I received from you right on my bookshelf. From now on, every time I watch a Kubrick or Victor Erice movie, I feel I will remember you.

The fact that there will no longer be replies to my messages, and the fact that I can no longer see you, really really make me sad, but you will always be in my heart. It's all right. I'm an adult now, too. I want to become an adult like you, someone who is loved by many, and someone who can guide others.

Thank you so much.

_______

Harada Hitomi (Harada and Fujiwara both voiced characters for Senran Kagura, and Harada references Fujiwara's role as Kiriya in this tweet)

Keiji-san. Kiriya-sensei.

I've been helped, so much by you. Thank you so much.

_______

Tomita Miyu

Fujiwara Keiji-san, I had the honor of acting together with you for the first time in Kotobuki Hikoutai. Warm, and yet mischievous, I truly loved acting with that voice of yours.

I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

_______

Hatano Wataru

Fujiwara Keiji-san. Across various works, I've been in your debt. When you called me for "Hoshi Koe", I was really happy. The warm advice from a senpai I look up to, and the smile after a recording session. I couldn't possibly forget. I pray that you rest in peace.

_______

Abe Atsushi

I've been in your debt since when I debuted. I see... We can't act together anymore...

Akao Hikaru (Akao and Fujiwara both voiced characters for Back Street Girls, and Akao references this in this tweet)

I'm still in disbelief even after a new day has dawned and I can't quite get the right words. I feel like a hole opened up in my heart. Since I was young through anime you showed me this fun world and as a member of Gokudols, I looked forward to the day I could meet you again.

I pray that you rest well.

_______

Ishikawa Yui (Ishikawa and Fujiwara both voiced characters for Shingeki no Kyojin, and Ishikawa references Fujiwara's role as Hannes in this tweet)

[Yui] That voice that I heard so many times when I was a child. Shingeki's Hannes-san was also, rough, cool, and warm... I loved him. Fujiwara Keiji-san, I pray that you rest in peace.

_______

Yukana

I wanted to act together with you more.

Thank you so much...

I pray that you rest in peace.

Okamoto Nobuhiko

Title: I'm sorry

I was planning to talk about trust and play today, but I hope you'll allow me to do that tomorrow.

I had the honor of doing my first radio show with him. When I was unable to speak well, he laughed at me. When we were recording for the Ao no Exorcist movie and from the start all I was capable of was shouting, he laughed at me. When I kept wearing the same clothes on the set of To Aru, he laughed at me. When I look back on things, it might have been sarcastic laughing, but I only remember the figure of him laughing. And, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble.

His appearance as an actor, the way he thought about and interpreted the script, what he brought forth, I received so much encouragement and experience from him.

Keiji-san, Truly, truly, thank you so much. I really I love you.

Thank you for everything.

I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

Notes:

The radio show Okamoto references I believe is "Sorairo Radio", a radio show promoting the anime "Sola" that aired from 2007/3/30 to 2007/7/27 for 19 episodes. During the month of July Okamoto and Fujiwara co-hosted the show.

Okamoto and Fujimura voiced Okamura Rin, the protagonist, and Fujimoto Shiro, Rin's adoptive father, respectively in Ao no Exorcist.

Okamoto and Fujimura voiced Accelerator, a main supporting character, and Kihara Amata, something of a mentor figure to Accelerator, respectively in To Aru Majutsu no Index.

Mizuki Nana

Title: The carnation that arrived at my house 2 weeks ago ☆

At my last place, even plants said to be robust I ended up letting die (>_<) However, ever since I started living at my new place my plants have been really lively! My care for flowers especially has gotten better! Proper ventilation and sunlight really are important after all (laugh)

https://www.mizukinana.jp/blog/photos/2020/blog/nana_phot_20200416.jpg

I found out about Fujiwara Keiji passing away. I had the honor of working together with him for various works, during my first public performance at Tokyo Dome he provided wonderful narration, and at the planetarium in my home prefecture I had the honor of performing together with him... Truly I was blessed with so many irreplaceable experiences. I pray from my heart that you rest in peace.

Notes:

The performance at Tokyo Dome is referencing NANA MIZUKI LIVE CASTLE 2011, a series of live concerts performed at Tokyo Dome by Mizuki Nana on 2011/12/3 and 2011/12/4. Fujiwara provided narration for a short film called PLANETARIUM "Princess Nana of the Heavens" (PLANETARIUM「天界の奈々姫」) which was shown during the concert on both days.

The performance at the planetarium is referencing when Fujiwara and Mizuki co-starred in a Hoshi Koe performance held on 2016/4/24 at the Matsuyama City General Community Center Cosmo Theater. Matsuyama is the capital of the Ehime Prefecture, and Mizuki Nana was born in Niihama, Ehime. Mizuki had also made two blog posts about enjoying rehearsing for the event with Fujiwara and celebrating the successful completion of the event.

Morikawa Toshiyuki

Title: Fujiwara Keiji-san...

Fujiwara Keiji-san... I pray you rest in peace.

It's too sudden. My mind is a mess. Even though I'm someone who works at my own pace... ... Right now, I'm overcome with feelings of loss.

From the time when I was a newcomer, we've been walking together through the ages for over 30 years. As an actor, and as a president, you were truly a friend... Since you were young you were shy and cool, overflowing with chivalry, an existence that even men were charmed by that is "Fujiwara Keiji"

..., It's so painful... the words won't come out. I'm sorry.

I feel that you really must have had it tough fighting against your illness. Now, please rest well.

And, the letters you sent me I will always cherish.

Morikawa Toshiyuki

_______

Hino Satoshi

Title: Keiji-san...

Keiji-san... It's a lie, right...? It's a joke, right...?

This... is too sad...

Keiji-san as a person, as a man, as an actor, you were someone who I respected from the bottom of my heart.

Everything about you was cool, you were someone I admired.

I wanted to learn more and more about various things from you.

Even now I clearly remember the time when on the set of the anime "Shakugan no Shana," as the role of the father, Kantarou, you kindly covered up for and accepted my terrible acting.

Keiji-san, "Dad, thank you so much for everything up to now"

While reflecting on each and every thing I learned from you, I will devote myself towards the sake of the future of the seiyuu industry.

I pray you rest in peace.

Note: Hino and Fujimura voiced Sakai Yuuji, the protagonist, and Sakai Kantarou, Yuuji's father, respectively in Shakugan no Shana.

_______

Suzuki Tatsuhisa

Title: Letter

I hate the idea of something getting overshadowed without anyone knowing about it, so I will write about it here.

Since we first met when I was 19, I've been in your debt for a long time. Since before we started having work together, you'd hear out my concerns and give me advice, and go along with my selfish requests to take me along for drinks. Even though you'd always say, "Waddaya want now, Tattsun," you'd always keep your promises. Whenever we met at the studio you'd always be giving off a pleasant, lazy mood. When you were the sound director you'd say things like "Tattsun, you're the only person I can ask for this," things that I couldn't tell if you were being serious or not. It's only now that I can say this, but I took you seriously every time, and every time I was seriously happy you asked me. The fact that you said those things to me.

Sometimes I'd tell you about how people say that our voices or our acting are similar, and even though you'd reply by saying stuff like, "What? That's gross," behind your sunglasses I could see that the look in your eyes always softened happily. I like chatting in the smoking area, so anytime I'd spot you I'd head straight there. When you'd say, "Yo!" to me, it was a little embarrassing, but I was always happy you did.

I won't talk about acting. That's something I'll keep locked away in my heart.

I know you had it tough. However, I stopped talking about it. Since you hate that.

All I can remember, is you always saying, "Yo! Tattsun," every time you saw me. Gimme a break, let me remember something else, too.

Thank you for always listening to my selfish requests. Thank you for always listening to both my trivial ramblings and my serious talks.

I always thought you were an annoyingly cool old man. You were always the best. You were always the strongest.

Everything about you is cool. So I envy you.

When I go over there, I'm gonna have a ton of stories for you. Before I do, please make sure to find some good sake and tobacco over there. It might take a while, but I'm definitely going to have, a ton I want to talk to you about.

It's about time I wrapped things up. This is a letter that will never be read by its recipient, after all, so there's no point in going on for too long.

Let's meet again with a smile. Anytime, anywhere.

With love.

Fantasy Life is Hazardous in Dragon Goes House-Hunting TV Anime PV

  New cast members, a new preview video, and the Japanese broadcast schedule have all been revealed for Dragon Goes House-Hunting (known in Japan as Dragon, Ie wo Kau.), an upcoming TV anime based on the comic fantasy manga written by Kawo Tanuki and illustrated by Choco Aya about a fledgling red dragon who is kicked out of his home for being too cowardly and who must seek accommodations elsewhere. The new cast members include:

    Kento Itō as Hero.

    Chiaki Takahashi as Thief.

    Daisuke Hirakawa as White Mage.

    Koutaro Nishiyama as Archer.

    M・A・O as Albert.

    And Takashi Kondō as Huey.

    The original Dragon Goes House-Hunting manga is serialized in Mag Garden's Monthly Comic Garden shonen manga magazine, and an English language version is also available from Seven Seas Entertainment, who describe the story of the series as follows:

  When a dragon fails to live up to the fearsome standards set for him, his family kicks him out. He embarks on a quest to find a new home, but soon finds that life on the road is no place for a cowardly beast of legend. In a fantasy world full of elves, dwarves, and other mythical creatures, where everyone wants a piece of him—literally!—the frustrations of house-hunting reach a whole new level.

    The Dragon Goes House-Hunting TV anime is directed by Haruki Kusagamori and features animation production by SIGNAL.MD. The series will broadcast in Japan according to the following TV schedule:

  TOKYO MX: every Sunday during the 22:00 time slot beginning on April 04, 2021.

Yomiuri Telecasting Corporation: every Monday during the 26:59 time slot beginning on April 05, 2021.

BS Fuji: every Tuesday during the 24:00 time slot beginning on April 06, 2021.

  Please note that some Japanese broadcast schedules count early-morning programming as late-night programming of the previous day, so for example the 26:59 time slot on Monday evening is actually on Tuesday morning at 2:59am JST. Dragon Goes House-Huntinging will also stream in the United States via Funimation as part of their Spring 2021 simulcast lineup.
