SEIYUU LOUNGE

Owner of one of the effortlessly sexy voices among male seiyuu, Takuya Sato is no stranger to singing in 2D music projects and even had his own solo career (and it was genuinely solid).

However, something was missing in his singing that acappella music - and namely, the Aoppella franchise - unlocked for him in 2019.

Since then, he has been a show stealer in all 2D music projects he is a part of.Music suggestions:- FYA'M "Think about U"

- TRIGGER "Triple Down"

- TRIGGER "SOL"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

Makoto Furukawa has impressed since the start with his powerful vibrato and unique, fancy brand of jazz-pop.

However, since his solo debut, he has been perfecting his control and bringing new tools to his arsenal that have elevated his singing from "good" to "stellar", making Makoto Furukawa one of the best singers among male seiyuu.Music suggestions:- BAD SKUNK "Violet Love"- Makoto Furukawa "Uso to Gekko"- RUBIA Leopard "Prisoner"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

Yuichiro Umehara has had one of the most impressive transformations as a singer in the past decade.

Originally lacking confidence, he's evolved into a singer who steals the show if needed, going toe to toe with some of the best singers without disappearing in the mix.

This was something we couldn't say a couple of years back but now, Umehara has managed to consistently impress with Sir Vanity, SolidS, Beit and BAD SKUNK.Music suggestions:- SolidS "Cross x Notes"

- Sir Vanity "Home"

- BAD SKUNK "Cheeky Girl"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

In this episode, we cover Shoya Chiba, popular seiyuu who has been a sought-after talent in 2D music, particularly since 2020. He is the perfect example of why vocal direction in 2D groups can make a seiyuu either shine or not.

Music suggestions:- Shoya Chiba "Kanjouron"- Shoya Chiba (as part of SparQlew) "Criminal"- Shoya Chiba "You/Me"Thanks to M L for inspiring this series of episodes!

In this episode, we cover Tsubasa Yonaga, a popular seiyuu who has lent his talents to 2D groups such as IDOLiSH7 and HEAVENS, as well as a member of the iconic seiyuu unit, Trignal.

We cover his struggles with dysphonia and how that may have hindered his singing since the start, when everyone assumed he was just struggling due to a lack of technique.

Music suggestions:

- IDOLiSH7 "DAY NIGHT DISCO"

- Trignal "Musubi Ito" (Tsubasa Yonaga solo song)

We start our series of 8 episodes focused on seiyuu who have improved their singing skills to a level that they are unrecognizable now (yes, because they now sing amazingly!).

In this episode we cover Ryohei Kimura, one of the most popular seiyuu in the past decade and one of the most sought after seiyuu when it comes to portraying unique and wacky characters in 2D music projects.

Music suggestions:

- Lil Happy "Playlist"

- NSFW "Crazy Nutrient"

- TRIGNAL (Ryohei Kimura) "Siren Fairlady"

I've been reviewing music and following the careers of male seiyuu for 16 years, and over time, I've noticed some seiyuu going from being a disaster as singers to becoming some of the best singers we now have in the industry.

In this episode, inspired by regular viewer M L, let's talk about some of the male seiyuu who have improved a lot over time and what could be behind those improvements.

This is the first of several episodes covering male seiyuu who have improved their singing skills over time.

Popular seiyuu, artist, and lyricist Shoya Chiba has announced the release of his first conceptual EP, Invention.

This is his first-ever conceptual album that, according to King Amusement Creative, is packed with many brilliant ideas that showcase the evolution of Shoya Chiba as an artist.

July 2026 is going to be packed with new music releases - and will cause some damage to your wallets.

Makoto Furukawa, Shouta Aoi, Yuya Hirose and XlamV are just some of the artists that will be releasing music this month, making it the very first exciting - and incredibly busy - month this year.

Are you excited about any of these CD releases?

It's been 3 years since popular seiyuu and solo artist Shouta Aoi has released a full length album. The wait is over as he has announced the release of "LIMITLESS", his 4th album, set for release on July 1.

This is big news, as Aoi doesn't release albums that frequently, and if he is even remotely in the same vibe as he was in "Collage", we may have one of the standout albums of this year in our hands.
