Hosts: Iguchi Yuka, Satou Rina
Guest: Noto Mamiko
Date: 2008.11.28

The two of them introduced the alcohol they were drinking for this episode far more enthusiastically than they talked about their guest lol. Incidentally the alcohol they’re drinking is the same one SatoRina drank with Kanae on Railgun Radio, the one that got her tipsy after a couple of sips lol. Noto is the first female guest of Index Radio, at it’s 11th episode, and also it’s first in studio guest, the last guest was Atsushi Abe in a live audience recording.

– Noto found Himegami difficult to play. she was told not to put much expression into her character, but then was told to put a little more. Noto had spoken with the director a few times to ask if she was on track with Himegami.

– SatoRina noted that she had never been in the recordings with Noto since Misaka and Himegami hasn’t appeared together before :O

– Noto says she’s worked as a shrine maiden part time before a long time ago :O She says that the clothing was pretty difficult to wear, it was particularly problematic when needing to go to the toilet.

– When asking Noto if she has any special abilities for one of the corners, the two of them mention that Iguchi can find people really easily and SatoRina says she can sit in the traditional seiza position forever :O

– Noto’s “special ability” is “Being able to treat anywhere as her home” saying that she can relax anywhere as if it’s her own room.

– A listener sends in a mail talking about his special ability of how he’s able to make goosebumps on his skin at will, and even make it appear on certain places only. Wow that’s sooo creepy ahaha. They laugh about wanting to see it in person, or even in a photo lol. They ended up naming the ability “Dokodemo Chicken” “Dokodemo” meaning “Wherever” and “chicken” taken from the japanese word for goosebumps.

I think they got a bit tipsy near the end lol.

Name: ぼんぼりラジオ　花いろ放送局
Hosts: Noto Mamiko, Itou Kanae
Date: 2011.04.08

Radio for the currently airing anime, Hanasaku Iroha hosted by Ohana’s Itou Kanae and Tomoe’s Noto Mamiko. They comment that although this is the first time they’ve done radio work together, they’ve worked in many other anime recordings together before.

– Kanae’s image of Noto

Kanae: “The image I have of Noto as a person is like an angel!”
Noto: “Ehhhhh?!”
Kanae: “You seem really ‘floaty’ so I was thinking that this radio would turn out pretty relaxed”

– The two of them are made to adlib a character introduction as their characters on the spot, and they’re really not in character, which they laugh about.

– Kanae comments that she’s the same height as Ohana at 147 cm. Noto says how cute that is, and that at the recording studio there’s a smaller microphone to use, though it’s only slightly shorter.

– Noto says that she’s swum around in the hot springs when no one’s around before, Kanae says she doesn’t know if she would since she’s never had the chance to be alone in a hot spring.

– One of the listeners gets them to whisper really softly into the microphone. Ahhhh happinessssss for my earssss.

– Noto’s hometown is Kanazawa, the setting of Hanasaku Iroha :D. Kanae remembers hearing Noto talking about the town during the trip there for an event.

Everyone fawns over how cute Kanae is when they’re with her on radio, and Noto is no exception <3 Kanae you so adorable~ <3

Oh and Omigawa Chiaki looks to be guesting on the next episode… Eh… Well regardless of what I think of Omigawa’s voice acting ability, she’s not too boring on radio I guess. I still hate her voice acting though. Really. Like, so, so much.

Name: 宙のまにまに★放送室
Hosts: Hayami Saori, Itou Kanae
Date: 2009.06.03

Sora no ManiMani★Broadcasting Room radio for the 2009 anime Sora no ManiMani. Hayami is 18 years old at the time and Kanae is 22, making it a 4 year difference between them. Hmm… Don’t mind me, I’m just having trouble imagining someone younger than Kanae (lol) They comment that this is the first time they’ve done radio work together.

– Kanae asks if Hayami’s from Tokyo and upon finding it out asks if she sees many stars from the city. Hayami says she doesn’t see that many stars but the bright ones like the stars in Orion’s constellation can still be seen easily. Kanae’s come from Nagano and says that when she came to Tokyo she noticed that the stars were much less visible.

– That’s not a star Hayamin~

Kanae: “There are stars that twinkle heaps aren’t there?”
Hayami: “Yeah and sometimes there are red twinkly ones too”
Kanae: “Wait, what?”
Hayami: “It blinks red on and off and stuff”
*staff talking in the background*
Hayami: “What? That’s a plane?? *laughs*”
Kanae: “A plane?? *laughs* But don’t they move fast? Yours didn’t?”
Hayami: “It… Didn’t”
Kanae: “Wouldn’t that be a UFO or something?”

Lol whaaaat am I listening to?!

– Kanae had no idea that stars were burning OTL

– Kanae misreads Mahjong as Majin lol

– Kanae’s favourite scene in the first episode of Sora no ManiMani was when Mihoshi was throwing stars off the roof when she was first introduced.

– Hayami wonders who was the character who thought up the idea of throwing paper stars from the roof, and Kanae says it was obviously Mihoshi lol. Of course, who else could it be Hayamin~?

I’ve missed Itou Kanae and all her adorableness <3.

Stuff gathered from my Soup miniblog.

From Iguchi Yuka no Mu~~~n #17, 2011.01.24

A couple of weeks back Iguchi had randomly seen Asumi Kana in a clothing store, but Asumi had not yet noticed her. Iguchi then snuck up behind her and said “Ah! Are you Asumi Kana?? Can I have your autograph!?” lol.
Asumi was surprised at first and when she turned around she was kinda flustered, then saw it was Iguchi and was like “… Eh. Iguchi…” Ahahah I wish I could see that reaction :D
Incidentally, she’s also bumped into Toyosaki Aki randomly in a clothes store recently as well.
These random encounters usually happen right after work, so I guess it can happen often since they sometimes browse the stores near the studio right after a recording.

Speaking of seiyuu bumping into each other outside work…

I remember an early episode of Macross F Radio where Kamiya Hiroshi and Nakamura Yuuichi mentioned that randomly coming across another seiyuu outside work wasn’t that uncommon quoting a time recently (back when Macross Frontier had just started) where Nakamura was greeted by May’n at a train station, before he even knew her.

He was wondering who this random girl who was openly talking to him was till she noticed he didn’t recognise her, she then introduced herself as May’n and then he realised she was the singer for Sheryl.

Nakamura and Kamiya agreed that it happens rather often due to the work times and places they go to being reasonably similar for everyone in the business.

P.S. Nakamura(+Kamiya) was really surprised how easily May’n came up and spoke to him out of nowhere at the station, and admired her courage for being able to speak to someone she hadn’t met before when she randomly spotted them outside of work. May’n sounds like a wonderful person :D

Sugita and Nakamura about Love Plus from Sugita Tomokazu’s Anigera! Dedoooon #13

Hosts: Hanazawa Kana, Yuuki Aoi
Date: 2010.04.18

Hanazawa comments out of nowhere at the start how cute Aoi’s voice is, and Aoi gets all embarassed ahaha

– They read out a survey taken from their generation on what their childhood dream job was and rank #2 was “Seiyuu” lol, to their surprise.

– One of the corners have the two of them listing 3 colloquialisms and things that they think are important from their generation, Kana’s is normal, but Aoi’s has an internet meme in it ahaha. Kana laughs at how weird Aoi is when she explains her lingo and examples where she would use them ahaha.

This episode was really short =/

Hosts: Taketatsu Ayana, Hanazawa Kana
Date: 2011.02.11

They comment that this episode marks the half year anniversary of the radio, and Kana says that it also makes it the half year mark of how long she’s known Ayana for.

– They mention they haven’t played games together. What happened to Kana playing Monster Hunter? D:

– They say that the show might go on for another half year :D

– A listener sends in a mail talking about how he loves how raburabu the two of them are and for them to keep it up. They laugh that they’ve got approval from the listeners to fawn over each other as much as they can.

– Dangerous Kana is… Okay!

Ayana: “Recently Kana’s been seeming really dangerous… Well I like that about Kana too~ <3”
Kana: “Really? Is it really okay?”
Ayana: “It’s okay! Well if it really gets bad I’ll just stop you”
Kana: “Yeah just stop me”

– Ayana recommends a yuri game to the listener ahaha.

– Ayana says she watched OreImo with her mum ahaha. Wait she mentioned somewhere else that her mum watched KissxSis as well didn’t she? lol

– Ayana was introduced to BL through her fujoshi friend. She had no idea what it was at first when she bought the manga but when she saw them kissing she was kinda shocked ahaha.

– The two of them comment that they’d love to see a BL cafe lol OTL

– Ayana uses the “suuun~” sound effect :O. I’ve been seeing the “suuun~” onomatopoeia  used quite a bit recently, is this all because of Toyosaki Aki? lol.

– One of the words introduced in the internet lingo corner is “FSS”. Apparently it stands for ”ふとももすりすりしたい”(Futomomo Surisuri Shitai) which means “I want to rub [her] thighs” lol OTL.

– Talking about Gijinka (Personifications of non-human things, such as pokemon into human form sorta stuff).

Kana: “I want to see a Gijinka of Ayana”
Ayana: “Huh? I’m already human… Sorry but I’m a person?”
Kana: “Sorry that was my mistake. Yeah Ayana is a human.”

Looks like they’ll be celebrating Kana’s birthday next episode, should be great :D …Well it’s been out for a while so I already know what’s goes on in it and it is great <3

Hosts: Hanazawa Kana, Yuuki Aoi
Date: 2010.04.09

When Shaolin gets mentioned Aoi doesn’t know what it is, asking if it’s a type of soccer lol OTL. She thought of that because of the movie Shaolin Soccer and they both liked that movie haha.

– Kana says that Aoi would look good in a Maiko(along the lines of a sorta female classical entertainer ) dress, but Aoi disagrees saying she’d look like a kid dressed up for a coming of age ceremony lol. Kana says that Aoi’s small and cute <3

– Apparently Aoi can’t eat mangoes :O. Kana in turn says she can’t eat “Sunagimo” some kind of chicken gizzard.

– Aoi mentioned that she’s pretended to be Sailor Jupiter while playing pretend Sailor Moon and Kana says she pretended to be Tuxedo mask lol. She wanted to be like Ami though :O.

– Kana talked about how the boys in her middle school were really into Yugioh, and while they were playing the girls stood off to the side and commented “Ah.. How childlike…” Aoi jokingly winces and says she played Yugioh too ahaha. She said that boys would yell to each other in class “OI YOU! IT’S TIME TO DUEL!”.

– Aoi says she played Yugioh throughout high school :D.

The radio seems to be planned in a way that has them doing a whole bunch of activities rather than holding conversations with each other. It’s amusing but they don’t really talk too much about themselves for most of it until the ending talk.

Hosts: Hanazawa Kana, Yuuki Aoi
Date: 2010.04.02

Third episode!

Kana: “Ah it’s the third episode already, I think I’m getting used to this now.”
Aoi: “Getting used to the show, or getting used to me?”
Kana: “No, no. Well you’re okay Aoi.”
Aoi: “I’ve been told by people that they were pretty surprised by me when they first met me”
Kana: “Well it was kinda shocking at the start”

– Apparently Aoi likes to cook occasionally.

– Aoi says she’s been treated to a lot of meals ever since entering the seiyuu industry and she feels a bit guilty for it. They decide that they need to carry it on and treat their juniors in the future lol.

– Aoi’s never done any part-time work before.

They spent a majority of the episode doing a quiz with each other so I didn’t really write much for this episode =/

Hosts: Hanazawa Kana, Yuuki Aoi

The two of them wonder what Capoeira is lol. Aoi asks if it’s a pokemon ahahaha. They start saying “Capoeira!” like a pokemon call :D

– I… Don’t think Kana knows Venice is in Italy lol.

Aoi: “I want to go to Venice and go on a gondola tour! When I was talking about my graduation trip with my school mates I yelled out Venice… And they all looked at me funny”
Kana: “Eh? Why? You should just go if you want to”
Aoi: “Huh? …Venice is in Italy you know?”
Kana: “Ahh…”

– Aoi says she’s a big fan of Pokemon lol

– Ao’s sound effects

Aoi: “If I wanted to go out with my friends but I didn’t have my allowance given to me yet I’d be like *dadaan*”
Kana: “Huh? ‘dadaaan’?”
Aoi: “It’s supposed to be that classic shock horror sound effect *sings it properly*”
Kana: “Ah… I see… Whatever, go on”
Aoi: “Ahh! Don’t ignore it! Tease me for it! I love being teased~!”

Lol OTL. Also I have no idea how to say the sound effect that she says. If you’ve played Peggle before it’s the sound effect of the Spooky Ball… That probably doesn’t help does it? OTL.

– Apparently Aoi’s dad is some kind of manager or head director or something. The details were censored out :O.

– Aoi talked about how much she loved her dad and how cool he was a couple of times throughout the episode lol.

Oh they’re celebrating Aoi’s 18th birthday on the show :O. Her birthday is on the 27th of March. Kana comments how steady she is as a person at 18, saying she was really spacey at 18 ahaha. Yeahhh If you’ve seen Kana at 18 the difference compared to her now is huuuge lol.

Hosts: Hanazawa Kana, Yuuki Aoi
Date: 2010.03.19

Radio for the web anime Yutori-chan hosted by Yuuki Aoi and Hanazawa Kana. The name means something along the lines of “Don’t get annoyed by this radio too~”. Episode 0 is a brief 10 minute broadcast with Aoi alone describing the corners and the radio show. Aoi says she was really nervous since she’s doing this on her own, I’m not surprised though, I think this may be the first time she’s done solo radio work.

– Aoi was in the art club during school. She says she loves drawing, and we all know how great she is at it :D

– Apparently episode 0 was recorded just before episode 1, with Kana watching her outside the studio lol

———End of episode 0———

– Aoi had just graduated from high school it seems.

– The two of them mention that they were lots of adlibbing done during the recording of Yutori-chan :O

– Apparently Kana has learnt Aikido :O

Aoi: “That’s really cool!”
Kana: “Yeah, but I wasn’t any good at it, the teacher told me that I should just run away”

– Kana was in the Computer Studies club in middle school :O She said she did absolutely nothing though lol. The biggest thing she did there was learn Microsoft Word.

– Kana’s script has her saying “nyannyan” and Yuuki tells her to repeat it.

Aoi: “This is kinda off topic, but could you say ‘nyan nyan’ one more time?”
Kana: “…nyannyan”
Aoi: “Thats moe. Okay you can continue now”
Kana: “What’s with this conversation…?”

– Aoi says she knows how to program :O Though she’s doubtful that it’ll come into use as a seiyuu lol.

– Aoi tries to pull Kana into gaming haha.

– Kana is allergic to cats and dogs :O

– Kana’s favourite animal is a turtle.

– “Ao-chan you’re a funny person!”

Kana: “Aoi, you’re a pretty funny person!”
Aoi: “Huh? Am I pitiful? *laughs*”
Kana: “Eh? I didn’t say pitiful! *laughs* Yeah, funny!”

– Aoi says she’s a hikikomori, she spends all her free time at home drawing, gaming or on the computer lol.

– Aoi says she really, REALLY loves her work as a seiyuu, and Kana agrees saying that work is fun :D

Aoi: “And I’m much younger than everyone else, everyone spoils me and treats me really nicely!*laughs a lot*”
Kana: *laughs a lot as well*

– Aoi comments that she’s a boke type, and she really loves Kana’s tsukkomis.

Aoi: “We actually make a pretty good combination don’t we?”
Kana: “Yeah we’re pretty in sync”
Aoi: “I’m the type of person who just keeps rolling with the bokes, so your tsukkomis are really great!”
Kana: “Oh, It’s alright for me to tsukkomi?”
Aoi: “Yeah! Be as sharp as you want! In fact I’d be happier if you did!”
Kana: “…You’re quite M aren’t you?”

This is really reminding me of the conversations between Hikasa and Kana lol.

As always the atmosphere was kinda weird at the start since it’s the first time these two have properly had time to talk to one another but they warmed up to each other pretty quickly :D. I’m still really interested in Aoi and her radio work. I love her more with each time I hear her, and her otakuness is wonderful <3. I really enjoyed this episode actually, I might go through the whole thirteen episodes but I’m really overloaded with radio shows right now OTL I haven’t even seen a single IchiUshi radio episode in months lol. We’ll see how it goes.
