Junichi Kanemaru as Sonic | Friday, 10.27.2023

Happy birthday to Junichi Kanemaru, a Japanese voice actor (seiyuu) known for voicing Sonic the Hedgehog himself (for almost 25 years ago) since the original 1998 release of Sonic Adventure on the Sega Dreamcast! 🦔 🌀 👟

Playing a Sonic game on Japanese audio for the first time be like

Seeing my ship in this made me smile.😊

I should really plan to subscribe to Netflix to watch this dub so fucking bad! 😭

Nice to get confirmation from Junichi Kanemaru himself that Sonic supports gay rights

[kittydoremi]

So I recently listened to Junichi's cover of Suddenly and... I think it fits SonElise really well 🥺❤

Some lyrics I noticed:

It seemed when I met you, we'd been here before

I didn't forget you on some other shore

Fate was my friend, 'cause she brought you again

Relating to how despite resetting the timeline, it's implied that Sonic still remembers Elise, or at least has a familiar feeling.

Your love has saved me,

Elise reviving Sonic

your smile is sacred

Sonic liking and complimenting Elise's smile

Love is forever, as free as the wind

Despite the timeline reset, Elise still feels a familiar feeling from Sonic in the wind when he runs past her.

This- THIS! This is how you do a scream of absolute rage and sheer determination while being ripped apart inside by cyber corruption.

Roger's voice acting and the direction was IMMENSELY better in Frontiers, so much so that I actually finally enjoyed Roger's voice as Sonic. But Roger, I'm sorry- you are just. a really. LOUSY. screamer.

The recent Sonic fan Q&A but it’s just Jun'ichi's adorable laugh for 13 seconds.

What a fun rendition of Jingle Bells sung by Sonic the Hedgehog's Japanese voice actor!

[anonzentimes]

The funniest part is that some people were arguing Sonic would be homophobic and never be gay or anything like that when suddenly someone decided to check Sonic’s JP voice actor likes 😭😭😭

guys this sonic x shadow generations leak is looking mighty freaky if you ask me!!!

NO BUT LIKE IT WASN'T EVEN HIS LIKES HE REPOSTED THAT. IT'S SOOOO FUNNY.

also there's an actual clip of ian flynn on the bumblekast explaining how the sonic cast wouldn't be homophobic and I absolutely adore it because it's like "not even eggman would be homophobic he just hates everyone" it is so great

[overthinkingspark-blue]

what if they included a feature (in sonic frontiers) where in the settings you can switch Sonic’s English voice to be either the original audio with roger, or junichi (Sonic’s Japanese voice actor) fully speaking in English

idk maybe the English fans would love it

(I know @fukurou-hoseki would probably love it 😏)

Jun-chi Kanemaru is excited about Sonic Frontiers!

On September 6, 2022, Jun-ichi-san tweeted a link to the Japanese Amazon listing for Sonic Frontiers, saying, [By all means!]

I/m excited about the game, too, Kanemaru-san!

Netflix Drop 01: Sonic Prime | Tuesday, 09.26.2023

Tomorrow, I'm watching that upcoming Netflix Drop 01 livestream on YouTube just so I can tune in more on what's to come when Sonic Prime returns for its 3rd (and final) season releasing around early 2024.

Something to precede Sonic Day: did you know his Japanese VA can sing?

This song holds a special place in my heart since it was based on a short sci-fi story by J.G. Ballard (Terminal Beach, Chronopolis, The Drowned World, etc. also no relation)

Edit: that's not what "preclude" means

Edit2: The BUGGLES, not the Bangles, srsly girl what is wrong with you today
