Who would the Frontier kids meet and hang with from other series?
Since yesterday it was Odaiba day, I will finally reply to an ask from this Anon, whose identity I know because @teclajellymon isn’t skilled at hiding secrets lmaoooooo. She wanted to only ask about Izumi and Junpei but she had to act like a chameleon, you know ahahahha.
Happy Odaiba ( in late *flops* ) !!!
• Takuya: I mean, you’d think a googlehead should be placed by the side of another one. And I do understand that, the official did the same as well, but can I change the rules a bit? I want to see Takuya and Sora interacting, because Sora reminds me of Rin from Yes!5 and Rin from Yes!5 is voiced by the same woman voicing Takuya, who also said she wished Takuya was a girl like Ri-
OK. I just think they’d share they football passion together and it would be cute? Besides the fact aesthetically they would look really pleasant together, they both also are fire themed. I’d like to see them playing together and if Taichi wants to join, why couldn’t he?
Still, among the googleheads, I think the one I would like to see interacting with Takuya is Marcus…? I want them to kill each other, yes?
Kouji: He’s kinda easy, because I really like that Cd cover where he stared at Yamato playing his harmonica, dreamy eyed. I know it’s kinda lame Kouji is being put with a loner wolf, so I’m taking a safe route, but I honestly can’t get rid of that image printed in my head. Hmmm someone else, someone else, idk. Help. Maybe he could meet Takeru? If he met Yamato, he would meet Takeru as well and Takeru has got a Patamon. Since Kouji was often seen getting Patamon’s attention in the original season, Takeru’s would bring him memories.
• Izumi: Of course, when it comes to your favs you have got ton of ideas. Ton. Let’s say I will write a little bonus down here for Junpei and Izumi, so, for now, I’ll just temporise ahhahah. Many pair Izumi with Miyako, but I would honestly be curious to see how a meeting between Ruki and Izumi would play. Once a friend of mine drew Izumi and Ruki collaborating in modelling together (Ruki was the photographer, Izumi was the model of the photoshoot), but I want to picture them together more because Seki Producer liked saying Izumi “is actually more similar to Ruki than Mimi”. How? At what extent? What did you mean, SekiP? We will never know imo, but maybe if Ruki and Izumi got to know each other…
• Junpei: OF COURSE, same identical tale as old as time like when it comes to Izumi. So many ideas for my boy, I’d make him even meet Taichi and I think they’d go along. During my Adventure 01 “rewatch”, I truly found myself spotting a piece of Junpei in so many characters ahaha. Taichi has got a scene in which he drives some kind of crane in a factory and Frontier’s episode 5, the one in which Junpei drives one as well, blatantly is a homage to that. Needless to say, Junpei has also got something in common with Jyou, whom he met in an official comic (during which Junpei doesn’t miss the chance to compliment Izumi in front of strangers and in her absence lmaoooo); moreover, in the first Frontier ending, Junpei reading his homework on the stairs is another clear homage to 01, to a scene focusing on Jyou, though I can’t recall which episode it was and I apologize.
Still, and I’ve already said it, I ABSOLUTELY want Junpei to meet Ruri. I want him to become envious of her little detective life and bugging her by sticking his nose in whatever digital mystery she’s on. The Great Detective Shibayama meets the fantastic Ririrun! I need to draw them *wants to explode*. Maybe Junpei could affect Ruri with his fantasies about owning a series, who knows.
Junpei would also so funny with Miyako, I swear. The 02 x Frontier pic did place them in a mirroring position and I just adore it lol. They can eat together while talking about their crush, even if Miyako does yell much more than Junpei lmao. Bingo. I think Junpei would admire her technological skills and would evolve in Bolgmon to gain maths intelligence lmao x 2.
• Tomoki: I have played the Takeru card and I don’t really care? Because I want Tonoki to join the Tamers younger kids for once, though we know nothing about Ai and Mako, and unfortunately about Shaochung as well. But ehy, we can come up with headcanons and make these babies have fun. If Impmon acts as a bully like usual, Tomoki will have someone to deal with, though…
• Kouichi: He doesn’t give me any problem like his twin (good boy, Kouichi). Thanks to some people from this fandom, I have jumped on the boat of Kouichi and Hikari, not necessarily on a shipping level. I can see it. I can see Juri boarding as well, but Juri is way too hyperactive to Kouichi’s tastes imo. Hikari is a bit quieter and more considerate. He would put him at ease just like his twin does www.
• Bonus: Koumi x Junzumi
And here I can say : aren’t shippings ending with umi so beautiful at this point ?
Talking again about my 01 rewatch, I can confirm to myself early Mimi does remind me of Junpei a lot, which is a sacrilege but, ehm, seriously…???? I don’t blame some dude playing in their stories about Junpei being a Jyoumi son, because he’s really a mix of them. People usually like connecting Junpei with Koushiro (and I do too lol) because of the electric/thunder bug theme, but I also adore creating scenarios for Junpei and Mimi ahahah, two spoiled kids coming from rich families always complaining about needing to eat, sleep, getting disgusted so easily….Two needles stuck up your butt, speaking bluntly ahahha.
I have got a lot of ideas about Junzumi x Koumi . In my hcs Izumi will open a restaurant someday and I do believe Mimi would love visiting it. Then, she would invite Izumi to her cooking tv show and Junpei would stop underlining how wife is much better than this Mimi Tachikawa who has come from who knows where. Do you know my wife won two contests, is Gambero Rosso’s favourite guest, her restaurant received compliments from both Terramadre and Slowfood-

I've decided to post mine Seiyuu MAD (edited fan video) hoping that Tumblr don't ban me! I've made 5 in total i'm gonna post them one by one.Enjoy! I don't own the music all rights are reserved.
Do yall remember this post about Hirarin participating in a Kiramune live drama reading event?? Well, they've finally updated the site with the story and cast photos, along with a video on their official Youtube channel!
Here's a very rough translation of the synopsis: After the fourth World War has destroyed nations and continents, the world looks very different. Our main character, Kudou Makoto, who works for a manufacturing company, gets called in by the company president. He's given a document with the word N.A.O written on it, which confuses him since he's never heard of them before. When talking to his former university professor, he's handed a business card that reads "N.A.O., Area J branch manager" and is told that his strength is needed. His ordinary days are about to end as he questions his beliefs and the existence of good and evil.
Each reading will be performed by separate casts so there are two people playing each role. General info below~
^Kudou Makoto - Eguchi Takuya and Kamiya Hiroshi^
After graduating from Tachikawa National College department of Robotics, he became an ordinary man who developed products to aid in disaster relief. Was invited to to develop for the N.A.O Area J branch by his mentor and former teacher Tachibana. Lives his life upright, and strives to help others. That was until his supervisor, Kureha, revealed a hidden truth to him...
^Idzuru Yakumo - Kimura Ryouhei and Namikawa Daisuke^
Makoto's childhood friend. Graduated from the same department of Robotics at Tachikawa College of Technology and works in Area A after transferring from N.A.O Area J. Decided to go back to Area J on the same day Makoto was moved to that area. Confronts Tachibana about moving Makoto to Area J because he's known him for so long and worries. He has a strong sense of justice and excellent grades. He also has internal struggles of his own that come to a head.
^Tachibana Seiichirou - Miki Shinichirou and Konishi Katsuyuki^
He's the N.A.O Area J Branch Chief of Staff. Taught both Makoto and Yakumo in college. He's the one who personally recruited Makoto to work in Area J. Is gentle yet strict with a flexible way of thinking. He makes the best decisions he can in the moment, ven if he has to remove his own emotions in the moment. Left behind his wife and daughter in the country side to work hard.
^Sakuma Hideo - Seki Toshihiko and Furuya Touru^
Commander in Chief of N.A.O Area J Branch. Ruthless and will protect Area J at all costs. He doesn't speak much and carries out his decisions without second guesses. He is beginning not to trust Makoto. Lost his wife and child in the previous war.
^Aoyama Keigo - Yonaga Tsubasa and Okamoto Nobuhiko^
N.A.O Area J branch operator. Knowledgeable in IT and works hard. He believes you cannot protect what's important to you without power. Has a lot of admiration for Sakuma and does his best to help Area J in his own ways. His older brother and parents in the last war.
^Kureha Suguru - Yoshino Hiroyuki and Hirakawa Daisuke^
N.A.O Area J Branch Development Office Manager. He's doubted the intentions of others since he was a child and doesn't trust anyone, including his own family so he only opens his heart to machines because he knows they can't lie. He's an eccentric person who loves the machines he makes like they're his children but is very knowledgeable system development. Calls Makoto "Mako-chan"
^Hino Mirai - Uemura Yuuto and Hozumi Yuuya^
A trainee at N.A.O Area J. Is a bright student and the top of his class but always falls behind Seira in their last skill exams but because of his personality he admires the other student rather than being jealous of him. After losing his parents, he now works hard to take care of his little sister, the only reaming family he has.
^Sumeragi Seira - Yoshinaga Takuto and Horie Shun^
Another trainee at N.A.O Area J. Although he got the top score in the recent skill exam, he's only average at everything else. Is shy and rarely talks to his classmates. He lives alone and doesn't even know his parents.
Sorry if anything is off, I just tried to get the basics of each character. All the guys on the left side are one cast and all the guys on the right are the other cast. Anyways, the story sounds really interesting and the cast is obviously all star, no mater which performance you're talking about! I just need them to sell blu-rays or online viewing tickets!!!!!
I can’t believe this is a thing now. I thought the first ep was a one-time thing. Apparently not. There were 2 more since then (x, x).
◉‿◉
EDIT: They delete the videos from their Youtube account after a week. So I updated with links to Bilibili instead, where the videos are still alive and well (so far).
Someitmes I think “Ignorance is Bliss” and this is just one of those moments.
There is a variety-seiyuu program at AmebaTV. They release it daily with a couple of seiyuu hosting each day of the week.. One of the host pairings is Seki Tomokazu and Satou Takuya.
I... somehow knew a couple of the programs they had Subaru in it continuously. One of them is actually “valid” as it was aired after one of the Blade of the Immortal stage plays he was in (because it was put by HeroQ, Seki’s theatre troupe), and I understand live times and all that are strict and such (if I explained myself okay) to keep a certain schedule.
But, the one previous to that one? WELL...
Let’s say that my curiousity was killed a couple of times, and just because I found a couple of pics that were.... hahah... sorta perverted? (like, what was I expecting from a program hosted by Seki, and it being late at night, tbh???)
And it involved a person-sized doll and that one radiant grinning dork in such a situation where.. I imagine like, how will you treat/woo someone -a girl, in this case- in private... =///=
I don’t have that any kind of objection because, well, Suba is in his late 20s already, I mean, as a grown up man, he could have a healthy self-care (I don’t want to put it in more lew*d and somewhat ns*fw words, lmao) life, for all I care. But, WOOOOAH, =///= my imagination flew a bit.
Problem is, I just found this (in a set of co-jointed pics). MAYBE I wish this wasn’t the case.
This isn’t like... Som*aki*mi (which is VERY tamed in an unfair comparison), which was eventually released in a DVD (and I’m still on plans on getting certain volume). NAH, definitely it isn’t. It’s the other kind of seiyuu variety program that could get lost in time once the premium service gets defunct (like An*im*ate Chann*el).
With this, I assumed AbemaTV is a premium service (similar to Nicovideo in their live streaming service)... WELL, it is. But the programs they just release/air are available to watch for “free” (I mention this in quotations because, tbh, the video doesn’t load to me :/)... and they also upload a whole program to YouTube for a VERY limited time, before going into premium. So, my opportunity window to watch this flew away back in mid-May (and if I stretch it, maybe early June) :’)))
“Ignorance is bliss”, indeed.
BY ANY CHANCE... has anyone seen this episode (it’s number 6)? Maybe do you know about a *cough*file*cough* around?
PLEASE GUIDE ME OR send me a DM about it ;A;
My curiousity has been killed, and my heart is a masochist with this kind of content.
I could TRY and look for some clips or screencaps in Twitter, but I don’t bet too much on it.
