Since we appear to watch rather a different spectrum of programs, I'll add two more distinctive roles for Kuwashima, who is also in my list of top female seiyuu. For me her most impressive performance was Shurrei in Saiunkoku Monogatari. She slides easily between comedic and serious material throughout this show. Her speech in episode eight of the second season of Saiunkoku where she berates the (uniformly male) members of the Imperial Court remains her single most-memorable performance for me.
I also think she brings an appropriate edge of menace to a mere ten-year-old girl in her performance as "Isako" in Dennou Coil. . I've rarely heard her voice children, but she's quite effective in Coil and also as Sheila in Mahou Shoujo Tai Arusu.
