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

Radio for Macross Frontier. The show is mostly hosted by Nakamura and Kamiya, Nakajima only participates in a couple of the corners as well as the ending, which is the same for the guest. The show goes for only 30 minutes and airs 2 or so songs as well so the time for which the guest actually appears is rather short.

– Nakajima’s first words to Toyoguchi on the show is “I’m a fan of yours” :D Apparently Toyoguchi voiced the protagonist in an anime she loved, I think it was “Super GALS”  around 9 years ago :O Incidentally Kamiya also voiced a role in that anime.

– Nakajima tells Toyoguchi that the two of them bully her in the radio, to which she scolds them for lol. They blame the script, saying that they just read it word for word, but Toyoguchi says that the script is empty. Also those two adlib like crazy anyway lol.

– A listener sends in a mail talking about his 9 year old daughter loving Macross Frontier and Kamiya is shocked that he’s the same age as the listener, yet he doesn’t have any children lol. Toyoguchi agrees and laments with him which he then says to her “Megumi, lets get married and have children” LOL. She refuses (of course ;) ).

I’ve heard that Kamiya and Toyoguchi are pretty close friends though I haven’t actually listened to them together myself. Macross F radio continues today at it’s 129th episode. Also Toyoguchi has guested 3 more times after this episode to this date, in fact she was their latest guest on it’s 124th episode along with Endou Aya.

The other Macross F radio episode that has Sugita guesting, about 9 months after his first guesting. For those wondering about the title of the radio show, the show goes through seasons with each season seeing a new set of symbols after the “F” in the title. Additionally, with the start of each show a new title is used, keeping the “Macross” + a second phrase of sentence starting with “F”. This episode’s title was “Macross Fanatic Crisis”.

– Sugita mentions that “He didn’t think that he’d be invited as a guest a second time”

– They mention that during the recording there weren’t many toilet breaks and says that Hoshi Souichiro next to him really needed to go but was holding it in for a long time lol.

– Oh, it looks like it was Kamiya’s birthday, they celebrated it on the show by bringing in cake :O

– This was the second time they’ve celebrated Kamiya’s birthday on the show and Kamiya notes that this was the first time his birthday’s been celebrated more than once on the same radio show.

– Sugita bought Kamiya some sneakers for his birthday. The same ones that Sugita himself wears lol.

I’ve been putting a lot of Sugita x Nakamura stuff here recently… I normally stay away from the whole male seiyuu x male seiyuu fandom but Sugita’s definitely one of the more interesting personalities in the seiyuu world and his friendship with Nakamura is amusing to see and hear about.

Macross Frontier radio hosted by Nakamura Yuuichi (Alto), Kamiya Hiroshi (Mikhail) and Nakajima Megumi (Ranka). There’s always been a lot of talk about Sugita on Macross F radio to the point that the hosts of the show have made up a mock corner named “This week’s Sugita” whenever they start talking about him.

He has always been a guest that listener’s have requested in mail to come on to the show but they haven’t really guested him until this episode, almost two years after they’ve started broadcasting. To this date, they’ve had him guest one more time on 2010.01.28.

– Kamiya seems to be the person who told Sugita about his character on Macross before he auditioned for it, saying he thought the character would fit Sugita.

– When Megumi was asked “What was your first impression of Sugita” She mentions that it was around the recording of the third episode when Sugita randomly went up to her and asked “Hey this is cute isnt it?” while brandishing his shell mobile phone strap:

He then went on to say “Nakamura’s pretty scary isn’t he? But he’s actually pretty shy so there’s no need to be afraid of him” Megumi’s impression of him from that was “Ah he must be a nice person if he’s worrying about us like that”

– They mention that the Macross Frontier Chief Director Kawamori Shouji listens in to the show.

Regardless of what I think of her voice acting ability, Mamegu is pretty cute on radio <3
