Does anyone have scans of Kotonaha no Hana?? 😠I want to read it so bad but I can't find it anywhere. I don't think I'm looking in the right places for it and the drama cds and everything else
If you make it to the end of this i'm impressed.😆
Okay so I don't really want it to be cause where i live I am going to be miserable buuuuuuut, the Summer Anime Season is where I am looking cause among my many returning animes is Osomatsu-san, a pretty niche anime in the West but beloved by Japan so much that is made a come back 80 years later and is now on it's 4th season!😲
Originally called Osomatsu-kun back in the 60's, Osomatsu-san is about six identical sibling brothers and their daily lives of being NEETS and a burden on the world they live in. It's a slice of life that can be really funny if you get the jokes. It has an amazing cast including my number one seiyū Sakurai Takahiro- san! As per usual he is the one that got me into watching this anime! He voices the oldest Matsu brother and is the namesake of the series as a whole!
Although they do wear matching outfits at times as a nod to the original anime they are color coded and have unique personalities to tell them apart. Here listed are the names, colors, personalities and who voices them.
Sakurai Takahiro-san does the voice of the biggest NEET out of all of the brothers. He's also addicted to Pachiko.
Also the voice of Gojo sensei, Nakamura Yūichi-san gives this brother a cool nature...or tries to.
Kamiya Hiroshi-san is the voice of kind of the most boring brother for me. I don't know he just does not stand out as much as the others in personality.
Fukuyama Jun-san bring this eternally depressed brother to life and he is low key probably my second fav brother.
Knowing Ono Daisuke-san, there was no yellow highlight color, from a character like Sebastian Michelas it threw me for such a loop to hear him, and see his live, voice such a dopey airheaded character. Like it really showed his range to me!
The youngest and most adorable brother and my third fav he actually has a job and tries to be the opposite of his oldest brother. He is voiced by Irino Miyu-san.
There are a ton of live events too from the series and even not translated you can see how much fun everyone is having and really getting into their character. This is why I say when you change a seiyū for a character you are not just changing their voice but you are changing the whole character so it is not the same anymore.😖
They often go on stage with their counterparts from the anime and have contests and silly games they play which I end up laughing so hard at cause these are grown ass men near my age and they act like this for a living! Ugh, so jealous!
Anyway so that's my post on one of my fav anime series as well as the seiyū's who voice it. I don't know who is gonna get to the end of this but I hope if not the anime itself you will have more appreciation for the people that give the characters life. That's the true goal of an seiyū otaku.
