Random radio scribbles done for various shows that I didn’t end up writing a full post about.

Darker Than Black Backstage Pass #6

Radio for the second season of Darker Than Black. It turns out that Hanazawa Kana had a bad cold at the time of it’s recording, she had a mask on as well as that nose-blocked voice and emphasized to the other two, Hidenobu Kiuchi and Fukuen Misato, to stay far away from her so as not to catch it. Also I’m probably being a terrible person for saying this but… KANA WAS SO ADORABLE IN THIS EPISODE <3 <3 OTL

Hikasa Youko about Seikon no Qwaser from Saito Chiwa’s M-Serve Style

Talking about Souma (For those who know next to nothing about Seikon, Souma is breast milk sucked from girls to provide power for character’s abilities[lol])
Hikasa: “Souma is… The overflowing power provided by the lovely girls in the anime!”
lolol OTL

Juuninin no Yasashii Koroshiya SideR #8

Radio hosted by Sugita at around late 2008. This episode had Fukuyama Jun as a guest.

– The first time Fukuyama Jun had met Sugita was when they went to karaoke as a group. At the time he thought Sugita was far older than him and spoke to him using formal speech. Throughout the whole outing he spoke to him this way until another person told him “Hey Sugita’s younger than you, why are you using formal speech with him?” to which Jun exclaimed “WHAT!? Why didn’t you tell me from the start Sugita?!” This was when they were about 20 years old haha.

Iguchi Yuka no Mu~~~n ⊂（　＾ω＾）⊃ #8

Host: Iguchi Yuka
Guests: Asumi Kana, Gibu Yuuko, Taketatsu Ayana
Date: 2010.11.12
Iguchi Yuka’s new radio which started a couple of weeks after her own ChoRaji! Girls had ended. The name comes from something she’s often done, yelling “Mu~~~n” with her arms open wide lol. Another reason why the name is Mu~~~n is due to the show being aired on Monday, which is written as “Moon Day” in Japanese(as well as English incidentally, a random bit of trivia: The english word Monday was derived from the Old English Mōnandæg and Middle English Monenday which means “Moon Day”) This is the first episode that she’s had a guest come on, I’m glad it’s earlier than her previous ChoRaji! Girls which had it’s first guest on it’s 19th episode. The three guests are here as a Tamayura special.

I know next to nothing about Gibu Yuuko; I know Asumi Kana has barely met up with Taketatsu Ayana before, and only during recent recordings; and that Asumi and Iguchi are really close friends but other than that I’m not sure how well the others know each other. Yuuko has guested on Iguchi’s ChoRaji! Girls once as it’s last guest on 2010.8.27, a month before the show ended. Incidentally Yuuko goes on to guest on Asumi Kana’s own radio show soon after this episode.

Ayana, Asumi and Yuuko were jumping around in the window in the other room at the start lol.

Hosts: Toyosaki Aki, Hikasa Youko
Date: 2010.01.08

The staff has it written on the radio opening script to introduce themselves as their middle school nicknames they spoke about last episode, Toyohiko and Geru for Aki and Hikasa respectively lol.
The anime series is about to begin airing on television.

– Hikasa laments that, being 24 years old, she’s gonna have to be the one giving out the end of year gifts rather than recieving them. Aki still recieved some this year :D.

– Talking about how they spend the New Years.
Aki: “How do you spend your New Years? Do you relax or are you active?”
Hikasa: “I laze around! I stay inside the kotatsu and never come out!”
Aki: “Same here!”
…
Hikasa: “I hear some people go overseas, or Okinawa or something like that”
Aki: “Ah that sounds great…”
Hikasa: “Yeah what the hell, overseas!? Going overseas?!”
Sorry Hikasa, I used to go overseas at the end of the year too OTL

– A listener sends in a mail talking about him loving how in sync the two of them are, to which they break into a fit of giggles lol.

– Hikasa talks about when she attended her first audition, she was really nervous and when it was her turn to stand at the microphone she had brought her pen in one hand along with the script in the other. While she was all hyped up and had her turn at the microphone, subconsciously she was clicking the pen in her hand over and over throughout the recording without realising, and then the staff told her “Umm sorry, but could you stop clicking the pen”, to her embarrassment lol. Ah that’s so cute Hiyochhi~ <3
Incidentally she passed that audition lol \o/

– At the end of the show the two of them were surprised that they’ve been talking for about an hour <3

The staff add sound effects such as correct/incorrect SEs and halt the BGM as well as adding echoes among other things while the show is being recorded and the two of them can hear the effect, which is not totally uncommon but still pretty interesting particularly when they react to the sound effects, bgm changes and especially when the staff adds echo when the two aren’t expecting it lol.

Hosts: Toyosaki Aki, Hikasa Youko

Hikasa’s so crazy, I’ve been loving her work so much recently :D

– Aki first found out about her co-hosting the radio with Hikasa when her manager told her “I’ve got news you’d be happy to hear” and she was overjoyed to find it out, saying she was dancing in happiness :D

– Hikasa found out when Aki told her, while smirking the whole time like she couldn’t wait to let her know. Apparently she didn’t find out from her manager first because he wanted to surprise her with the news lol.

– Aki was overflowing with compliments for Faylan again this episode :D

– Hikasa mispronounces the ED “Passionate Squall” as “Hassionail(Hasshioneiru?) Squall” ahahah

– When Hikasa asks how Aki’s feeling about the radio show, Aki say’s “It’s… Tiring, in a good way” Well the two of them are screaming and getting so carried away during the show so I’m not surprised.

Also I didn’t mention it last time, but the radio aired fortnightly till it’s end on it’s 21st episode in mid June, right about when the final episode of the anime had aired. The show has only had two seiyuu guests on the show, actually probably three since Yousei Teikoku’s vocalist is Itsuki Yui. Other than Yousei Teikoku and Faylan, Kawasumi Ayako and Chihara Minori has come on the show(<3). Also, I love the staff for gathering these two for the radio on their own accord :D

Hosts: Toyosaki Aki, Hikasa Youko

“Seikon no Qwaser Radio! St. Mikhailov Academy’s Broadcasting Club” abbreviated as “QwaRaji” hosted by Yamanobe Tomo’s Toyosaki Aki and Katsuragi Hana’s Hikasa Youko. I haven’t actually seen the anime(lol). The radio started a month or so before the broadcast of the anime had begun.

– At the start Hikasa says she’s nervous, which Aki rebukes calling her a liar :D

– Aki says she’s met Faylan, the singer of Seikon’s OP, before while Hikasa hasnt. Aki described her as “A really nice person, though she’s so cool when she’s singing, when I met her in person she was so polite, she was really wonderful <3” They wonder if they could get to come guest on the show. Incidentally they eventually do get her to come on to the show on the fourth episode :D

– Hikasa comments that though she calls Aki “Akkyo”, no one else calls her Akkyo. This also applies to Aki calling Hikasa “Yocchan” though no one else calls her that, which they find amusing. They say they can’t remember when Hikasa started calling Aki “Akkyo” nor why, but they remember Aki calling her Yoko-chan until switching to Yocchan when they became closer friends.

– During Middle school Hikasa’s nickname was “Geru” lol, upon hearing this Aki asks “…This was a nickname given to you by ‘friends’ right?” Ahah

– When talking about similarities between them and their characters, they agree that both Aki and her character Tomo loves to hum a lot.

– I loved how the two of them danced around the ero aspect of the anime :D
Aki: “The anime is a little ero” ; Yeah I wouldn’t say a little D:
…
Aki: “Everyone should watch the anime, and see all the impactful scenes, the ones I’m sure that will leave a mark in your heart and mind!”
Hikasa: “Yeah, for all you adults only though!”

Aki has implied it before on her Okaeri Radio, but Hikasa seems to be her closest friend in the seiyuu world and she’s really relaxed here, both of them spiral out of control on this radio and it makes for a really fun listen :D

Hosts: Toyosaki Aki, Hikasa Youko, Yuuki Aoi
Date: 2010.04.01

Radio for the anime series “Ichiban Ushiro Daimaou”. The name is a mesh of puns, firstly “Ichiban Ushiro” is straight from the anime itself, “Mugendai” means infinity, and is probably a reference to the OP, REALOVE:REALIFE’s lyrics, while “RajiOu” is a merge of “Radio + Ou(king)” combining them all to get “DaiRajiOu”. Yeah it’s still complicated but whatever.
The show is hosted by Soga Keena’s Toyosaki Aki, Korone’s Yuuki Aoi and Hattori Junko’s Hikasa Youko and airs fortnightly for only 8 episodes. The final four episodes all have different guests coming on to the show, starting with Itou Shizuka then to Kondou Takeshi –> Takahashi Chiaki and ending with Hirohashi Ryou.

– Aoi had brought a home baked cake to the anime recording for everyone to eat, seems like during valentines she brought chocolates for everyone as well :O How wonderful <3

– Aki tells Aoi that if Hikasa and Aki are getting too carried away that she’s free to tell them to shut up lol.

– A listener asks if they’ve taken the very back seat in school before, Aoi says she hasn’t saying that whenever she wanted to, the teacher wouldn’t let her because she was too short lol. Aoi is about 145 cm if I recall correctly. Now that I think about it, the height difference between her and Aki is about 25 cm lol.

Aoi: “The teacher said I wouldn’t be able to see from back there but I argued with him saying ‘I’ll do my best to grow!'”
Hikasa + Aki: “What? Grow??”
Aoi: “You know how when people are put in a tough situation they’ll do their best to overcome it!”

Lol Aoi, I don’t think it works quite that way =P

– Aki took the back seat quite often, even though it was decided by lottery :O

– Aoi says that she’s the same height as her mum and wears similar everyday clothes to her so from behind people can’t tell which is which lol.

– Aki says that recently she’s been getting up early and cooking a really traditional japanese breakfast every morning for herself, to which Hikasa says “Oh! :O I want to make you my wife. Number one cohort for being my wife!”

– The staff brought in rice due to Aki’s character’s love of rice, to Hikasa(false?) and Aki’s delight, Hikasa then gives up on the charade and says ” What in the world’s up with this radio? You’re giving us rice out of nowhere?!” Ahaha.

– Aki starts eating the rice lol, and she does a cooking style type reaction to the wonderfulness of the rice OTL

Aki: “I feel like dancing! No! The rice is dancing inside my mouth!”

Apparently the other two weren’t allowed to eat the rice, to their disappointment.

– Aoi comments that Korone says a lot of complicated words in her jokes that she doesn’t understand, and she wants to look them up in the dictionary. For those who haven’t seen the anime, these “complicated words” are perverted terms and colloquialisms lol.  Aki and Hikasa tells Aoi not to look them up, for her own good lol, saying that they need to protect her from this stuff ahaha.

Aki seemed like she genuinely enjoyed eating the rice alone lol.

Host: Toyosaki Aki
Guest: Hikasa Youko
Date: 2010.10.28

Aki’s famous(?) birthday episode from Okaeri Radio, with it’s surprise guest, Hikasa Youko. The two of them have worked in many radio shows together, starting with K-ON’s two separate seasons of RajiON, then to Seikon no Qwaser’s radio and then again to Ichiban Ushiro Daimou’s with Yuuki Aoi. In short, these two are particularly close even more so since they’ve had many chances to sit down and talk on radio. Incidentally, the two of them refer to each other as Akkyo and Yossan/Yocchan lol.

– At first Aki thinks Hikasa’s just sent in a prerecorded video message… But then she say’s she’s coming, she runs out of the room and appears in the studio to Aki’s shock lol. Actually It might be a prerecorded message regardless, Hikasa comes in wearing something different.

– The first thing Aki says is “Huh? Wait, how about her pay??” Lol, it appears that Hikasa’s doing it for free though, how wonderful <3

– Hikasa said that she originally planned to just send in a video message, but decided that she’ll just come guest.

– Aki says she’s been working all day with Sphere’s Budokan live and she was given a cake for her birthday during work. Ayahi had said to her “I’m glad to have met you on the day to celebrate your birthday!”

– Aki[‘s staff] gives Hikasa a copy of Dill, this was on the 28th of October, about two week’s before it’s release.

– Tomatsu Haruka gave Aki a huge stuffed sheep scented with lavender for her birthday present.

–  Hikasa brings out a sketch book where she’s written stuff about Aki depending on a theme she thought up herself.

First was: “This person’s really hardcore [as a gamer]” Where she found out that Aki loves to play “Senjou no Kizuna” in the arcade, a robot piloting game where the whole cockpit is built and you enter it to play.

Second was: “What did you just say?”; What Hikasa thinks was the weirdest onomatopoeia sound she’s heard Aki make, which was “zuchazuchazucha” Aki get’s embarrassed upon hearing this lol.

Third was: “What I want to thank Aki for” Hikasa wrote “Aki’s optimistic perspective”. Aki in turn said about Hikasa “How she lives life to it’s fullest in the moment”.

– Hikasa mentions that they’ve been to Disney land and Disney sea together before. :D

– Aki says she’s probably talked to Hikasa the most out of everyone in the seiyuu business, they’ve gone out to eat together on multiple occasions in their personal time and such.

– A listener sends in a mail asking Hikasa to name five things she likes about Aki; she said:
1. Warm
2. Healing
3. Cute Smile
4. When she doesn’t succeed, she picks herself up
5. Her hair is fluffy
6. I like her smile; Hikasa: “Wait I’ve said this one already” Aki: “You’ve said more than 5 already~”

– They mention that they’ve been phone calling each other a lot, even though they rarely call other people to talk :D

– Aki says that she’ll try and surprise Hikasa on her radio for her birthday, which Hikasa strongly recommends against, saying her radio’s not a place for warm birthdays lol. Yeahhh Hikasa Youko and Nakamura Eriko’s Momonoki5 is crazy. Seriously. lol OTL

Lol Hikasa’s so energetic/hyperactive, she always infects the other personalities and so the amount of screaming and flailing that goes on in her radio shows is hilarious. Speaking of which, there was a time when Hikasa and Eriko sent in a message to Onosaka Masaya and Kano Yui’s radio show talking about Itou Kanae and asked jokingly what should she do to be as popular among men as Kanae was, and he replied: “Well how about you tone down some of that energy for starters” lol.

– First up was Satou Satomi, who chose: Episode 11, where Mio comes to visit the sick Ritsu scene.

– Second was Kotobuki Minako who chose: Last episode, where Yui comes in to the hall to play.

– Third was Taketatsu Ayana who chose: The scene where Yui hugs Azusa from behind when she was all tsun’ing. I loved this scene as well <3

– Fourth was Hikasa Youko: Episode 6 at the school festival where Mio is practicing alone in the club room but everyone else comes.

– Last was Toyosaki Aki who chose: The last episode when she leaves the house after going back to pick up her guitar. Before the scene starts showing Aki says “untan!” I love you Aki <3

– I love Aki’s ‘ufufufu’ laugh <3 <3
