Happy Birthday Ryotaro Okiayu

Today's the birthday of my favorite seiyuu of all time, Ryotaro Okiayu (who is the hard working man that voiced many characters like Lee from Tekken, Alucard from Castlevania, and Byakuya from Bleach). I hope he gets to have a wonderful day!~

[hikayagami]

It's March 14, which means it's that time of year again: E.M.U Posting Day!!

So here is the home video release of one of E.M.U's concerts from their Equal Live Tour, which was held at the Nippon Seinenkan Convention Center on January 15th, 1997.

You can download the concert HERE.

Also, please look forward to the very first "Summer Spinoff Special" post that has a connection to this franchise that I'll post... well, this summer XD.

Audio clip taken from BL drama CD, Ura Katana Kami no Ki.

A short audio I've edited,(I had to edit out just the character names that are spoken in this audio, bc I felt like it, sorry🤪)but it's just a small-but-hot kiss scene voiced by X and Zero's seiyuus/Japanese VAs!!!!😳🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

X is Shinkai the protagonist, but what I didn't realize from what I've read from the info was Zero is Shiva/the sword!!!!

Like, WHY DIDN'T I NOT KNOW!???😲😲😲😲😲😲

Anyway the characters in this scene are NOT an official pairing. Well, you get the idea how the plot in the drama CD/Manga goes.

And yeah I hate having to make a small thumbnail cover which doesn't pretty much relate to this scene.😑

【BLEACH文字起こし】口数の少ない役は難しい【置鮎龍太郎】

Anyone wants to take the time to translate this?

It's a shame there's almost no uploads of these Bleach conversations with English (at least...) subtitles on.

Hey everyone!

Did you know that Kokus Japanese v/o sings?

I found this playlist of his recordings on YouTube 😊:

You can even pretend that Koku sings you a romance song:

I think there's some songs by Muzans v/o and Doumas too, I'll find them as well!

Ryotaro Okiayu is to this day one of my top most favourite seiyuu of all time. Back in the day I would watch anime just because he was in it, and animes that I didn't watch because of him, I could recognise his voice immediately when I heard it.

My ear for recognizing seiyuu voices isn't as good lately, maybe because there's no one that I would say is my absolute favourite. However Umehara Yuichiro comes as close to being the sole exception as one can possibly be. Ever since I heard him for the first time as Goblin Slayer in Goblin Slayer (one of my most favourite of the newer anime and manga), I have been hooked. It helps that he's almost in every new anime I've been watching recently.

I think there's a similarity between his and Ryotaro Okiayu's voice that just appeals to me. However even as a fan I do admit that there is a certain monotony about his voice that works perfectly for Goblin Slayer and many of his other roles, but less so for Anos Voldigoad in The Misfit of Demon King Academy. Tatsuhiko Suzuki still owns that role.

But getting to my point, I'm watching episode 3 of Wind Breaker and it's the introduction of Togame Jo. The moment he said his first word I knew I recognised that voice but just couldn't place it. For a hot minute I was convinced it was Suwabe Junichi, but Anime News Network informed me otherwise.

My point is this is the first role of his that I didn't immediately recognise him from the get go, and I'm glad to hear him doing something different than his usual type of monotone stoicism, his work in this episode was amazing and he really brought to life the menacing playfulness of the character.

Togame was one of my favourite antagonists in the first part of the manga and having Ume-chan bring him to life is just the icing on the cake. I'm even more excited to see the rest of the show, especially once it gets to the Togame vs. Sakura fight.

(In completely unrelated news, god Nirei is honestly insufferable in the anime. He was just annoying and pointless in the manga but in the anime... I literally just want him to shut the hell up.)

It's that time of year again... MARCH 14th! Which means it's time for another E.M.U / Sotsugyou M post!

So here is the E.M.U - MVP promo video. It's basically a 30 minute compilation video showing some behind the scenes footage of band rehearsal and photoshoots with the voice actors as E.M.U, with some pics of their Sotsugyou M character counterparts talking about their likes and dislikes, along with 2 cheaply animated music videos... Dang, I miss the 90s XD. This VHS also came with a small character bio booklet, which I've also scanned.

You can download it all HERE.

If you want to download all of the past E.M.U / Sotsugyou M stuff that I've posted so far, which includes all of their songs and their first live concert, you can find all of my posts concerning them HERE.

Byakuya talks a lot - Bleach Radio【Eng Sub】

[randomnameless]

As sort of expected after browsing the Fodlan games,

At times, the French localised script is different from the eng one, but I've heard this game's eng localisation was discussed a bit so...

I guess as long as there's nothing on the level of Rhage I won't be bothered, granted I'm not over analysing characters and writing serious posts about them yet lol

So far, Ilenia was a badass and would have put Fado to shame, instead of waiting for her execution on her throne, she takes some people with her and launches an attack at the enemy commander to act as a diversion while her son escapes. And then we have a redux of the scene where Finn escapes Leonster castle smuggling his young prince away.

I'm half wondering if not rescuing Scarlett will spare me from jiggle physics because the only other female character I have now definitively doesn't have them, but given how the protag wants to save her...

Alain, on the true and tried fe tradition, beats red units to later recruit them, I can't wait to recruit more people lol.

Non plot wise... The artwork/background/even clothes and armors for the characters are pretty and while I know I'm old, I still don't understand why some devs insist on giving us weird af 3D models when you can still do beautiful and awesome models/graphisms in 2D.

The battalion sort of system makes a frightening amount of sense, and while I know FE is FE so gameplay wise it would have been really complicated to put in place, but I legit can't imagine for hcs or even fics ideas Fodlan now without a similar system lol
