Yaoi Challenge Day 12: Favorite Voice actor

You have got to be kidding me. I have no idea!! Let me just put a random one out there........I'm in love with Daisuke Kishio, Kenichi Suzumura (Lavi from D.gray-man) and Hikaru Midorikawa because he voices such a variety of characters from my favorite animes!

If you want Yaoi voice actors, I have seriously have no idea. I have quite a few because many of them are from BL CD's..........I can't help it! Their voices are just so sexy!! I really question how they make those..........sounds. I seriously do! I don't get it! > x < They must be very skilled or they are really doing it. I really love Ono Daisuke and Kamiya Hiroshi. Their voices are so hot!!

It must be very akward being a yaoi voice actor. But I really admire them. Voice acting is like acting on a stage. Instead of moving through the stage, voice acting would protray a character through the art of voice. That is very cool! This way, you don't have show your face to other people. It would take tons of skill to actually sound like your doing it and not feel awkward after attempting to make those sounds. You would need another person, equipment and a script. What else do they have to make those sounds?!



Anyways, I won't name all the roles they play. I only picked two voice actors to describe their roles because I have no time........so here it goes!

Hikaru Midorikawa voices Kaito Wanijima from Air Gear, Keiichiro Akasaka from Tokyo Mew mew and many others. Ono Daisuke is known for Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji, Kazuma Yagami from Kaze no Stigma (awesome anime/manga!), Shizuo from Durarara!! (hottie!), Hotsuma Renjou from Uraboku.



He also voices Suzuya Tohzuki from Starry Sky and Ichijou Kei from Miwaku no Ringo. He voices tons of other characters but I only named the ones I could recgonize.

Arigatou~!!

Manga Recommendation: Eyeshield 21

Sorry for not posting as often.......I'm either busy or just extremely lazy. Anyways, I have been running out of recommendations to recommend to be honest. Well I think have alot more but........anyways! While looking for this video on youtube, I came across this anime: Eyeshield 21. I had no idea what it was and the video or song I was looking for was the ending this anime. If you are wondering what the song I was looking for, it was called Flower by Back-on. I love the Japanese Band Back-on! :D

After listening to this (I fell in love with the song), I immediately wanted to try watching this anime! I really like this anime even though it is a sport kind of shonen anime but hey, I don't really care that much on genres! As long as they are not mature animes and have great art and have a story line then I will watch it!

Summary: Sena Kobayakawa is a weak and non-assertive boy. He enters Deimon Private Senior High school. Before High school he was constantly being bullied. He was made to run errands for people using his unnaturally good running skills. He was always saved by his childhood friend Mamori Anezaki. Because he has been a go-fer since he was little, he has decided to change himself when he entered Deimon High School. Sena's running ability soon caught the eye of football captain, Yoichi Hiruma. He forces him to join the football team. Will Sena take this opportunity to change?

I really have to admit, I have misjudged this anime. I thought the art would turn out bad and the story would be poop but now watching it......I think its extremely awesome, cool and epic!!! :) I normally don't watch sport kind of animes and yeah, I'm totally hooked on it! The art is really not bad and the story is full of adventure, fun and inspiration. I actually learned something about Football!

Picture from here

Eyeshield 21 is full of really interesting characters. Just like the manga/anime Air Gear, the characters are full of energy and enthusiasm. The main character Sena kinda reminds me of Tsuna from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! Sena is weak like Tsuna and pathetic too. Well Tsuna isn't great at when it comes to athletics and school work but I think Sena is better than Tsuna. But they both have the same determination and goals. Also they both are pretty EPIC! ^_^



The one character that caught my eye was Hiruma. He has interesting character.....he is awfully mysterious because he has his ways of getting things and well he carries guns with him so he is very violent. He may seem scary but he is actually kind. I love him! He is really funny!! :D



Arigatou~!!

Manga of the week: Air Gear

Ikki soon grows a grudge on the Skull Saders and decide to get revenge on them. After getting a satisfying win, he wants to experience "flying" again in the sky for as long as he can. Due to this he has plunged into the world of AT's.

My review/opinion:
I really enjoy this Manga/Anime. It is full of Action, Comedy (So funny) and fun! I really love it! I never had fun with any shounen Anime/Manga before to be honest until I came across this one. Many shounens I've read/watched I smiled, laughed and sometimes cried but this one.....it was sorta unusual.....It made me laugh harder until I cried, think and smile until my mouth hurt. I just love this Manga/Anime!! It is soo good!Beware.....It may contain some mature themes....not really but nudity I think.

Anyways the manga has won the 2006 Kodansha Manga Award in the Shounen category and was praised for both dubbing (surprising....I liked the dubbing) and subbing. It was also praised for the awesome soundtracks. I really love the soundtracks! I never usually actually take notice of the soundtracks but this anime made me look into it. To be honest this anime/manga has given me some inspiration. If you have watched or read this then you would probably know why. So I'd like you to try to listen to some of the soundtracks cause they are quite catchy. You know how music in movies or shows comes in the right time? Well I sorta feel like that when I watch the anime with the sweet soundtrack in the background!

Some of the tracks are based on the song "Chain" by Back-On

How do you like them??? I know they are awesome!!!!!! (I know that you wouldn't be saying that so I'm trying to be postive here!)

Arigatou~!!!!!
