Roma Paku is my fav seiyuu ever!! (Ed from FMA, Hitsugaya from Bleach)

Notables are Mamoru Miyano, Jun Fukuyama, Megumi Ogata, Kenichi Suzumura, Daisuke Namikawa and Tomokazu Sugita

Kaoru Chujo · 2007-03-02, 16:49

Thanks for mentioning Paku Romi. I'm fascinated by her lately. She is so great as rocker Nana in NANA -- real acting. And I just finished watching Turn A Gundam, from 1999, where she made the male lead, Loran Cehack, such an attractive person.

This is a bit of a cross-post, but here is a photo of her with Hirano Aya recently, when they went out for lunch after a recording session for NANA (in which Aaya is also wonderful, as Layla). Romi's 35 and Aaya is 19:

She was born in Japan to Korean parents (whose families had been in Japan for two and three generations), speaks fluent Korean, graduated from a Japanese university and studied for a time at a university in Korea. Like seiyuus Takahashi Rieko and Hosokoshi Michiko (both of whom were in Simoun) she is a member of the theatre group En. She and Takahashi-san starred together in Turn A Gundam.

Tanaka Rie - Is the perfect example of what a goddess should sound like (my favorite roles of hers are: Tomoe (Mai Otome), Suigintou (Rozen Maiden), Lacus Clyne (Gundam SEED/Destiny) and the list goes on.

She'll always be my number one. <3<3<3

Noto Mamiko - Her voice is absolutely lovely. Definitely the most beautiful voice I've ever heard in all the years I've lived.

Tamura Yukari - How can I resist her voice? I mean seriously, "ka na, ka na?"

Junko Minagawa - I love her "feminine woman" type roles such as Cornelia ( Code Geass) and Ayaka (Negima!?). She possesses a voice I can fall in love with.

Nakahara Mai - Gets much love from me for roles such as Tokiha Mai and Rena (Mai HiME and Mai Otome). I always love to her more from her.

Hirano Aya - Need I say more? She's all the rage.

Kugimiya Rie - Love her as Shana and I can't wait to hear her as Nagi in Hayate the Combat Butler.

Matsutani Kaya - She hasn't done many roles, but I love her as Matsumoto Rangiku in BLEACH.

Touma Yumi - Has one of the most sultry voices I've ever heard as Urd in Ah! My Goddess.

Romi Paku - Need I even explain why? She has done so many voices and has a range that would make most other seiyuu jealous. She's definitely among the best of the best.

Sugita Tomokazu - His performances as Kyon, Rin, Yuuichi are among the most amazing I've heard among male seiyuu.

Seki Tomokazu - This guy is awesome. Great performances as Shinichi (Nodame Cantabile), Kenichi (History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi), and Gilgamesh (Fate/Stay Night)

Hmm...I hope I'm not forgetting anyone.

Pendevous · 2007-07-31, 21:46

Kugimiya Rie - The voices of Shana, Karin, Nagi and Loise. <3

My favorite goes to the one and the only Aya Hirano

nanafan · 2007-07-31, 23:34

Seki Tomokazu loved him as Shinici, Sousuke...
Aya Hirano love her as haruhi and crazy konata.

KholdStare · 2007-08-01, 00:20

Yui Horie: She has a pretty voice and she can sing also. Plus she's in a lot of my favorite anime.

Echoes · 2007-08-01, 01:34

Hirano Aya (Not that I original I guess, but she's all business! Misa, Haruhi and Konata, that's just.. wow.)

aolas · 2007-08-01, 02:49

I like Horie Yui, Kugimiya Rie,

Deathkillz · 2007-08-01, 08:41

Tanaka Rie ~ gin sama ~~

Nana Mizuki ~ fate chan

Noto Mamiko ~ soothing yakumo voice ^.^

mdauben · 2007-08-01, 09:04

I'm embaressed to say that most japanese seiyuu do not make enough of an impression on me to develope a "favorite".

Probably the most memorable (to me) voice acting, was by Yui Itsuki's work as Moe Mizukoshi in D.C. ~Da Capo~. The dreamy voice was just so unique, memorable, and was an integral part of the character's charm.

arcadeplayer987 · 2007-08-01, 13:37

Touma Yumi is my fav.

Furuno · 2007-08-01, 19:26

Hmm, Horie Yui, Noto Mamiko, Kugimiya Rie, Nakahara Mai (loves her singing voice!), Tamura Yukari, Mizuki Nana, Takahashi Mikako, Ueda Kana, Hirano Aya, Sugita Tomokazu...

Terrestrial Dream · 2007-09-23, 11:30

Toshihiko Seki- He was voice actor for few my of favorite character, Duo Maxwell, and Bleed Kaga. He also did excellent job with Rau, and Masato in Zeorymer.
Nobuyuki Hiyama- This men is awesome, he did voice for my favorite character Gai Shishio. He did a nice job on 556, Azrael, and Shiro Amada. His role as hotblooded character is just awesome.

mcruz1014 · 2007-09-23, 20:36

Tomokazu Seki- did Sagara Sousuke from FMP!, my favorite anime
Horie Yui- Naru Narusegawa from Love Hina
Yukino Satsuni- very versatile, done a range of characters from Yoruichi of Bleach to my favorite female anime character, Chidori Kaname from FMP!
Hirano Aya- been said many times on the thread, but her job as Haruhi deserves it IMO

Darklord_bg · 2007-09-26, 22:27

Norio Wakamoto - Probably has the most unique and interesting voice of them all. He really makes me laugh every time I hear him.

Kazuya Nakai - All his characters are badass samurai of some sort (Zoro - One Piece, Mugen - Samurai Champloo, Hijikata - Gintama, Yajirou - Grenadier and so on...). He does a great job making them both badass and funny at the same time.

Hoshi Souichiro - Really versatile. He can sound both quiet and timid (Kira Yamato, Kazuki from Getbackers) and really gutsy and powerful (Kazuma from Scryed, Nagi Souichiro from Tenjou Tenge). It's like he's two different people, though I like the latter one better.

Shuuichi Ikeda - Voices either powerful charismatic villains or again powerful father/protector figures (Dullindal from GSD, Shin Natsume from Tenjou Tenge, Hiko Seijiro from Kenshin). Either way his voice creates an air of superiority and confidence in his characters.

Toshihiko Seki - Great for voicing villain characters (Le Kruze from SEED, Reito from Mai HIME etc.). His voice carries with him an arrogance and confidence typical of his characters.

Yukino Satsuki - Can sound both cute and funny, also incredibly versatile. Usually voices violent girls who can be kind and caring at the same time (Chidori - FMP, Kagome - Inuuyasha).

Paku Romi/Megumi Ogata - Both of them can voice both male and female characters incredibly and that by itself is a great feat, but their voices are also incredibly deep and powerful.

Rie Tanaka - Voices girls who are cute and lovable, but at the same time possess great confidence and strength and her voice does that job rather well(Lacus Clyne - SEED, Simca - Air Gear)

There are probably many more that I'm forgetting but for now I'll stick with those.
