Since Manda darling mentioned something about Rosario to Vampire's silly lead character's (Tsukune Aono) seiyu, (Daisuke Kishio) I decided to post something IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT because I got addicted listening to beautiful Inuyasha's voice.
And just to compile new things I've learned about seiyuus, Daisuke Kishio also voices none other than annoying Kaname Kuran (Vampire Knight), Luppi (Bleach- one of the Espadas who is now... an ex-Espada), my darling Azuma Yunoki (La Corda) and... SHINOBU TAKATSUKI (Junjou Romantica).
DAISUKE KISHIO VOICES A CHARACTER FROM A YAOI ANIME!!
I suddenly realised that most seiyuus- the famous ones - all have VOICED yaoi anime before! Or even voiced yaoi DRAMAS!
With an exception of Mamoru Miyano, though. He who voices lovable Tamaki Suoh (Ouran), Raito Yagami (Death Note), my beloved vampire Zero Kiryuu (Vampire Knight), DEATH THE KID!!! (Soul Eater) and RIKU!!! (Kingdom Hearts). He voices all the men I love. :P
And my beloved Hatake Kakashi (Naruto), the pervert, is voiced by the same seiyuu as GUNTER (Kyou Kara Maou)!! How can Kazuhiko Inoue voice TWO characters of COMPLETELY different attitudes??? But then again, they aren't completely different since they are both... well, perverted, in a way.
And this probably isn't worth mentioning, but for the sake of my Naruto madness, Romi Paku, the one who voices Teresa (Claymore), Yuujirou Shihoudani (Princess Princess), Toshiro Hitsugayaa (Bleach)... also voices darling Temari (Naruto)!! The 5th Kazekage's sister!! :O
AHEM.
Okay, back to my yaoi epiphany. Arranged in order of 'surprised' to 'dumbfounded'.
1. Kisho Taniyama, who voices genius violinist Tsukimori Len (La Corda), Seiji Sawamura (Midori no Hibi) actually voices Takahiro Takatsuki (Junjou Romatica) and Durer (Enzai). YAOI ANIME!! *nosebleeds*
2. Jurota Kosugi, who voices the ever stoic man, David (Blood+), Kami-sama (Law of Euki), Asuma Sarutobi (Naruto) actually voices Aizawa (Sukisyo) and child sexual abuser Somuku Kanou (Okane Ga Nai)!!!! *nosebleed*
And he actually voices a Kami-sama (God).
3. Takahiro Sakurai, who voices so many of my favourite characters such as... Yuuri Shibuya (Kyou Kara Maou), Jenos (Black Cat), Yu Kanda (D Gray Man), beautiful SASORI (Naruto Shippuden), Shito Tachibana (Zombie Loan) and the man I HATE the most in anime history: SUZAKU KURURUGI (Code Geass) voices Misaki Takahashi in Junjou Romantica!! *nosebleeds*
4. Kenichi Suzumura... I love him!! He voices so many of my darling characters like the ever charming Hikaru Hitachiin (Ouran), Lavi (D Gray Man), Chika Akatsuki (Zombie Loan), Gippal (FFX-2), Demyx (Kingdom Hearts 2) voices Fujii Watari (Only the Ring Finger Knows), Might (Silver Chaos- yaoi game) and... SEIJI YAMADA from Sensitive Pornograph. *nosebleeds*
5. Gaara of the Sand (Naruto)'s voice actor, Akira Ishida who also voices Cho Hakkai (Saiyuki) and Zexion (Kingdom Hearts) voices AYASE (Okane Ga Nai DRAMA VERSION)!! *nosebleeds*
AND PRESENTING TO YOU... my most shocking discovery of all...
6. Jun Fukuyama. Voice actor of:
- Keiichi Shimizu (La Corda)
-Toru Kono (Princess Princess)
- Kei Takishima (Special A)
- Kenya Oshitari (Prince of Tennis OVA)
- and voice actor of the genius I respect most in my life: LELOUCH LAMPEROUGE
voices...
AYASE FROM OKANE GA NAI - the anime.

I hope that everyone reading this ridiculous post of mine which-has-nothing-to-do-with-my-life-whatsoever will feel as speechless as me.
Are you like :O ??? Well, I am, and I still am. You mean the same seiyuu as LELOUCH can do all those OOHS and AAHS??

What's with those GREAT seiyuus and voicing yaoi?
For those of you who are curous, Inuyasha's seiyuu, the one in which I have fallen for his voice, is not other than Kappei Yamaguchi - seiyuu of Ranma (Ranma 1/2), L. Lawliet (Death Note), Usopp (One Piece). His voice is beautiful...
*stares into the clouds*
But then again, it is now 1.54 am on May 8th 2008. :D
Manda dear! Thank you for influencing me to research on seiyuus! This is my first time researching stuff and i learned LOADS more than just this. Bwahahahaha
Ahhh... subarashi!! I just wasted some 45 minutes typing this post. Farewell to all and good night. I doubt that I'll be able to sleep after witnessing and discovering such wonderful things. :)

.... *takes a moment to digest the startling news*......
WOW!
In the past I haven't paid much attention to seiyus, but I did know the basics... but this blog blew. my. mind!!
I had known Some of the top-notch male seiyus were involved in yaoi animes like Junjou Romantica (I recognized Kentarō Itō, the voice of Renji in Bleach, as Hiroki Kamijo in JR), but Okane ga Nai.... had Lelouch... as AYASE?!
It took me a couple minutes to recover from that, along with finding out David from Blood+ was Kanou... but strangely, I wasn't really surprised to find out that Suzaku's seiyu was Misaki in JR. lol.
But, I was pleasently surprised to find out Mamoru Miyano was Riku in Kingdom Hearts, Mamoru is my absolutely favorite seiyu because of his work as Raito Yagami and Suoh Tamaki, escpesially as Tama-chan. He has incredible talent.
This blog Really flipped my world upside-down, but also informed me of how many well-respected seiyus will take yaoi jobs. Overall, it was a very entertaining and suspenseful read! ^-^
Paku Romi also did Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist. Love her!!!
Fukuyama Jun also did Keita from Gakuen Heaven. BL-ish.
Yamagushi Kappei did Ryoichi (Gravitation). Yaoi anime!
Oh my GAWD~ I am shocked through and through... Sasori's seiyuu is Yuuri's!!! Not obvious!!! But it was obvious in Junjou Romantica.
Hikaru Hitachiin's seiyuu is Seiji Yamada's!!!! (No wonder that voice was familiar!)
And yes the most shocking I have to agree~ Jun Fukuyama of (Keiichi Shimizu (La Corda),Toru Kono (Princess Princess),LELOUCH LAMPEROUGE..... is also the seiyuu of the very quiet and very timid... Ayase from OKANE GA NAI?! (O_o)! Wow....
Well~ Even Kappei Yamaguchi has to voice characters from yaoi/BL series' to make a living. He was the pedobait Ruu Watanuki from Kannagi no Tori. The character was a kind and cute little boy who liked hamsters and honey^^;
I really enjoyed reading this post. My favorite seiyuu is Fukuyama Jun and I knew he voiced ayase but when I first found out I was reallyyyy shocked. I really question why hes in so many yaois. I kinda wish Miyano Mamoru would be in just one yaoi :3
don't u mean takahiro takahashi? not takahiro takatsuki...that makes him sound like shinobu's bro and not misaki's...
I inclination not agree on it. I over nice post. Particularly the title-deed attracted me to be familiar with the sound story.
