I think one of the greatest things that could ever happen to me just happened, and I'm a lil emotional about it, idek where to start
First of all, its the simple things. I have a voice actor hobby for sure. It never went away. I didn't watch anime for 6-7 years and then coming back, my VA obsession returned immediately. I was like "JUST WATCH THINGS WITHOUT ANALYSING THEIR VOICES FOR FUCKS SAKE" but it didn't happen, it couldn't happen
Aside from rewatches, Banana Fish was a brilliant (sort of) return to anime for me. I got real excited about the amount of boxes it ticked
But I may have found something better
I randomly, and I mean randomly stumbled across this anime
Tumblr media
I haven't even read the plot. Idk what its about at all. But a few things caught my eye.
So I've made a couple of posts about Kenjiro Tsuda, the voice of Kaiba, and how his popularity absolutely shot up out of the damn sky and into space thanks to Jujutsu Kaisen. Now he gets roles after roles and is in the top 10 VA's. And it made me really happy cause he's been around for so long and deserves it.
However, Hiroki Takahashi, the voice of Joey, has not had the same luck. He doesn't get many roles, and when he does, they're in... not that great animes. I would know. I watched them for him. It made me sad.
So to ever imagine an anime that they are both present in aside from YGO seemed so far, far off into the distance, esp seeing as they both only got (mostly) shit roles. And now Kenjiro is doing graaaand so its just Hiroki.
Like I said, I stumbled across this anime randomly. First button it hits
Its a BL.
Brilliant. If anyone is under the impression there are a lot of BL's/Yaoi's/Shounen-ais, then you're clueless. There's a massive shortage of gay romance in general, but in anime, its about 1% of existing anime. Lower actually.
Again, I haven't looked at the plot yet, I just like to see who the romantic leads are. First name I spot, Ono Yuuki, the voice of a big fave of mine. My man here
Tumblr media
And who is he paired with? Oh... ohoho... no other than my main man of all main mans
Tumblr media
And I've made a lot of posts about hearing Joey's voice in things, but 99% of the time I'm talking about the voice actor for season 0 Joey. He's way more famous and gets a lot of roles. The last thing I heard DM Joey in was a dumb anime called Endride in 2016.
So yeah, I'm happy to see him in a modern, leading role in general, but the fact that its a GAY modern leading role is why its extra important.
And they are both two big faves of mine. Rocchi x Joey. I so dig it.
And then what I didn't expect was, just casually over on the right, was my other dudes name
Tumblr media
Tsuda Kenjurou
Fucking. Kaiba.
DM Kaiba and DM Joey. In the same anime.
Didn't even think that was possible????
Like wishful thinking is them both having the leading roles but NEVER. I COULD NEVER. Imagine that happening.
Having them in the same anime is enough for me.
BUT A GAY ANIME????????
I HOPE I GET TO SEE THEM INTERACT IN THE GAY ANIME. Even if he looks like some weird blue haired man. IDC.
Like I haven't read anything about this damn thing. Its just impressions. Joey is the dark haired one being teased by the blond? Uh, yeah. I accept. Kaiba's voice is in there somewhere? YEAH, sign me UP.
Also, I spot Uchida Yuuma there as well who played the lead blondie in Banana Fish. Honestly, its Joey reunited with his son.
I was tortured for years with bad animes. Only good animes from now on. Only good things. I'm not accepting anything else.
I am blessed.
And now I have to actually read the plot lmao
