Seiyuu Challenge: Bonus Rounds
This is inspired by the seiyuu challenge I saw @rukiinightray doing on their Tumblr. Check out the #Seiyuu Challenge tag on their Tumblr to see the questions. 
I just picked my favourites from Rukii’s to add to the compilation. After this, I will be posting the masterpost for my fully answered 30 Day challenge (it’s a separate one) including this bonus round!
Bonus Rounds Include:
Favourite Seiyuu above 40 Years Old
Favourite Singing Unit/Group
Seiyuu with Cute Voices
Seiyuu with Attractive Voices
Seiyuu with the Best Smiles :D
Bonus Round #1: Favourite Seiyuu Above 40 Years Old
Hiroshi Kamiya (pretty much 44)
Tumblr media
Akira Ishida (51)
Tumblr media
Romi Park (46)
Tumblr media
Good luck finding current female seiyuu that still get hired above age 40 without having “legendary” status. Hahaha... why is the industry like this.
Tomokazu Sugita, Nana Mizuki, and Yuuichi Nakamura are all 39. I just wanted to mention that.
The gifs are just the most iconic character for them (although I had a tough time choosing)
Bonus Round #2: Best Singing Unit/Group
I’ll be honest, I don’t listen to units often, but I do come across the occasional song, so I’ll be sharing a few of those! I’d say that the three following groups are the only ones that I’ve actually listened to on their own. 
The original question was the best 2.5D and 3D group, but I didn’t know exactly what those meant. I’m guessing 2.5D means there are anime characters played by seiyuu who also perform live like Utapri whereas 3D have real people performing and not as characters.
I’ve been listening to Yoshimasa Hosoya and Toshiki Masuda's Maxboys, but they’ve disbanded. I personally think this was due to bad timing, lack of variety and risk, and Masuda being a little less experienced on vocals. (if you can see the thumbnail of the video) *passes towel* 
youtube
I did listen to a few TrySail things, but often, female units to me sound a bit too high-pitched and cutesy. I had the same problem when listening to a few K-Pop songs, but hey, I now know a song or two from Girls’ Generation and Twice (who the heck wouldn’t know those groups?) The members of TrySail include Momo Asakura (pink), Sora Amamiya (blue), and Shiina Natsukawa (yellow).
Alternative: Adrenaline - Eromanga-Sensei ED
youtube
But my top pick would probably be Sphere. Sphere was one of the first groups that caught my eye which was only got noticed because they sang a Honeyworks song. With members like Haruka Tomatsu, Ayahi Takagaki, Minako Kotobuki, and Aki Toyosaki, they are a bit older than their TrySail counterpart (TrySail members are 22-24ish while Sphere members are late-20s to early-30s). All of this group’s members are listed as actresses and voice actresses as well as singers. Yeah, so they voice act in various anime (each having their own list of shows), occasionally live-action act and make appearances, and sing and practice dancing. In fact, Ayahi Takagaki is one of the few women to appear on Kenichi Suzumura’s AD-LIVE event, and she went twice. I knew each of these members individually for their voice acting first, but they can also go solo (and they do) for their music, but as far as I’m concerned, Sphere is still on hiatus.
Alternative: Here are their top tracks. I couldn’t choose. (I could’ve added a lot more than 15 tracks)
youtube
I’d also like to mention that there is a top 20 list for male units (not mine) [source]
1 – ELEKITER ROUND 0 2 – E.M.U 3 – ST☆RISH 4 – QUARTET★NIGHT 5 – HE★VENS 6 – D.A.T 7 – 神谷浩史+小野大輔 8 – フェロ☆メン 9 – Marginal#4 10 – CELL DIVISION 11 - G.Addict 12 - Maxboys 13 - KAmiYU 14 - Trignal 15 - CONNECT 16 - X.I.P 17 - STYLE FIVE 18 - Stella Quintet 19 - R-16 20 - アニ○ズ
This is purely opinion-based obviously, and since I don’t listen to most of these groups (I’ve heard of them), I trust these people’s word. I just don’t like Hiroshi Kamiya’s singing, and I know I will be kicked in the shins again for saying that. Some of these groups are old too so you can see them with funny hairdos. Seriously, Sakurai had a mad mop on his head. I wonder if it was real.
I’d also like to give a quick shoutout to the Honeyworks seiyuu because even if that’s not a “unit”, they still sing a lot of songs from them.
Natsuki Enomoto (CV: Haruka Tomatsu) - song
Yuu Setoguchi (CV: Hiroshi Kamiya) - song
Akari Hayasaka (CV: Kana Asumi) - song
Souta Mochizuki (CV: Yuuki Kaji) - song
Miou Aida (CV: Aki Toyosaki) - song
Haruki Serizawa (CV: Kenichi Suzumura) - song
Saku Akechi (CV: Hikaru Midorikawa) - song
Koyuki Ayase (CV: Tsubasa Yonaga) - song
Hina Setoguchi (CV: Momo Asakura) - song
Kotarou Enomoto (CV: Natsuki Hanae) - song
Sena Narumi (CV: Sora Amamiya) - song
Midori Hamanaka (CV: Gero) - song
Arisa Takamizawa (CV: Nao Touyama) - song
Ken Shibazaki (CV: Yoshimasa Hosoya) - HOW IS HE THE ONLY ONE THERE ISN’T A SONG FOR (or one that I can’t seem to access???)
There’s also Nobunaga Shimazaki and Kouki Uchiyama in LIP x LIP. [Song Recommendations] [Newest Song]
Honestly, I can make more than one post about them. Stay tuned for that! I’m going to make all my song recommendations and explain this whole universe. 
Bonus Round #3: Seiyuu with Cute Voices
Kana Hanazawa
Sora Amamiya
Maaya Sakamoto
Saori Hayami
Ai Kayano
Sumire Morohoshi
Maaya Uchida
Nobuhiko Okamoto
Yoshimasa Hosoya
Yuuki Kaji
These don’t even need explanation. If you’ve heard them, you know exactly what I mean.
Bonus Round #4: Seiyuu with Attractive Voices
Mitsuki Saiga
Megumi Ogata
Hikaru Midorikawa
Kazuhiko Inoue
Akira Ishida
Takahiro Sakurai
Junichi Suwabe
Yuuichi Nakamura
Yuuichirou Umehara
Kouki Uchiyama
Ryouhei Kimura 
Yoshitsugu Matsuoka
Yoshimasa Hosoya
Mamoru Miyano
Toshiyuki Morikawa
Shizuka Itou
Eri Kitamura
Kikuko Inoue
Miyuki Sawashiro
Kana Hanazawa
Saori Hayami
Aki Toyosaki
Haruka Tomatsu
Asami Seto
I probably missed a ton, but this is such an open-ended category. 
Bonus Round #5: Seiyuu with the Best Smiles :D 
Kouki Uchiyama He doesn’t smile too often, but apparently, he smiles when misfortune happens to others. I sympathize. Why do you think fail videos can be funny sometimes?
Miyuki Sawashiro
Mamoru Miyano
Tomokazu Sugita
Nobuhiko Okamoto
Yoshimasa Hosoya
Saori Hayami
I feel like I had to put that tadbit for Kouki because he’s such an odd choice. The other ones are quite obvious. There are certain smiles that just make you smile, and that’s my list.

Cowes & Fastnet Info Sheet 28 July – 12 August 2017
The Race – Fastnet
603 nautical miles
Alongside the Sydney- Hobart, the Fastnet race is one of the truly iconic yacht races. The race is only held every two years and, despite being the largest by far of the world’s classic 600-mile offshore races in terms of participants, race entry is always massively oversubscribed, making it that much harder to tick off the “bucket list”.
The 47th edition of the Rolex Fastnet Race, organised by the Royal Ocean Racing Club, will start in the Solent from Cowes, Isle of Wight, on Sunday 6th August, finishing in Plymouth via the Fastnet Rock, the symbol of the race, located off the southern coast of Ireland.
The Competitors
All 340 of them!
In the first minute, 222 boats entered and by 12:04:24 the 340 boat limited had been reached, which thankfully included the MYC entry.
Entrants from 28 different nations have signed up and include; Great Britain, France (who have dominated the event in the recent years), Netherlands, Germany and USA, with an entry from Korea as well as from Australia and New Zealand. The race has attracted the usual diverse fleet of yachts, from beautiful classics to some of the world’s fastest racing machines – and everything in between, racing in IRC or selected offshore classes such as IMOCA60, VOR65, Class40 and MOCRA Multihull.
Cowes Week
Cowes Week is the largest sailing regatta of its type in the world. It is a key highlight of the British sporting summer and has been held in early August every year since 1826, except during the two world wars.
Cowes & Fastnet Info Sheet
The regatta has evolved enormously since 1826 and now between 800 and 1,000 boats in up to forty different handicap, one-design and multihull classes race every day for eight days. Around 8,000 competitors now participate, ranging from Olympic and world class yachtsmen to weekend sailors. The spectacle that the racing provides, together with the vibrant festival atmosphere, attracts ver 100,000 visitors to Cowes during the event.
The Yacht
We have chartered Sailplane 1, a race-prepared First 40 Carbon Edition.   ift.tt/2nxjtZF
We take possession on 28 July 2017 and return her on 12 August 2017.
Sailplane 1, a Beneteau First 40, designed by Bruce Farr to replace the iconic First 40.7 cruiser/racer, is available for corporate and racing charter at events such Cowes week, Cork week, the JP Morgan Round the Island race and the Rolex Fastnet Race.
She has an extremely good racing history having represented France at the 2010 Commodores Cup. She also has race wins to her name in many inshore and offshore races.
Sailplane is built to a very high specification including Carbon Mast, Carbon Boom, Carbon Rudder and wheel. She boasts a full suit of high tech sails with both symmetrical and asymmetrical spinnakers.
Sail Wardrobe
3 racing mains to choose from (kevlar/carbon)
New 1 2 3 (Doyles?)
Storm jib and trysail
6 spinnakers to choose from including:
·        Code 0
·        Asymmetrical
·        ¾ Oz symmetrical
·        Heavy spinnaker
Crew
The boat can take 10 offshore and 12 inshore (i.e. Cowes). We also have the option of taking the yacht’s owner, Rob, in the unlikely event that we don’t get to 10 crew for the Fastnet, but we may be well advised to actively consider taking him for Cowes to gain the benefit of his local knowledge of the Solent.
We have 10 crew confirmed (see table below) with a further one person for Cowes. As far as possible, we want to make this an MYC boat so that we can proudly fly the club burgee.
Cowes & Fastnet Info Sheet
Importantly, six that have committed have sailed together offshore a number of times and therefore we are confident that we have the beginnings of a happy, harmonious crew that will have fun together, competing successfully and safely.
Muir is the current nominated Person In Charge for the purposes of the charter and race entries but, once we know the final crew list, we can decide together who will fill the usual roles of skipper, navigator, watch leader, etc.

The 47th edition of the Rolex Fastnet Race, organised by the Royal Ocean Racing Club, will start in the Solent from Cowes, Isle of Wight, on Sunday 6th August, finishing in Plymouth via the Fastnet Rock, the symbol of the race, located off the southern coast of Ireland.
The Competitors
All 340 of them!
In the first minute, 222 boats entered and by 12:04:24 the 340 boat limited had been reached, which thankfully included the MYC entry.
Entrants from 28 different nations have signed up and include; Great Britain, France (who have dominated the event in the recent years), Netherlands, Germany and USA, with an entry from Korea as well as from Australia and New Zealand. The race has attracted the usual diverse fleet of yachts, from beautiful classics to some of the world’s fastest racing machines – and everything in between, racing in IRC or selected offshore classes such as IMOCA60, VOR65, Class40 and MOCRA Multihull.
Cowes Week
Cowes Week is the largest sailing regatta of its type in the world. It is a key highlight of the British sporting summer and has been held in early August every year since 1826, except during the two world wars.
Cowes & Fastnet Info Sheet
The regatta has evolved enormously since 1826 and now between 800 and 1,000 boats in up to forty different handicap, one-design and multihull classes race every day for eight days. Around 8,000 competitors now participate, ranging from Olympic and world class yachtsmen to weekend sailors. The spectacle that the racing provides, together with the vibrant festival atmosphere, attracts ver 100,000 visitors to Cowes during the event.
The Yacht
We have chartered Sailplane 1, a race-prepared First 40 Carbon Edition.   ift.tt/2nxjtZF
We take possession on 28 July 2017 and return her on 12 August 2017.
Sailplane 1, a Beneteau First 40, designed by Bruce Farr to replace the iconic First 40.7 cruiser/racer, is available for corporate and racing charter at events such Cowes week, Cork week, the JP Morgan Round the Island race and the Rolex Fastnet Race.
She has an extremely good racing history having represented France at the 2010 Commodores Cup. She also has race wins to her name in many inshore and offshore races.
Sailplane is built to a very high specification including Carbon Mast, Carbon Boom, Carbon Rudder and wheel. She boasts a full suit of high tech sails with both symmetrical and asymmetrical spinnakers.
Sail Wardrobe
3 racing mains to choose from (kevlar/carbon)
New 1 2 3 (Doyles?)
Storm jib and trysail
6 spinnakers to choose from including:
·        Code 0
·        Asymmetrical
·        ¾ Oz symmetrical
·        Heavy spinnaker
Crew
The boat can take 10 offshore and 12 inshore (i.e. Cowes). We also have the option of taking the yacht’s owner, Rob, in the unlikely event that we don’t get to 10 crew for the Fastnet, but we may be well advised to actively consider taking him for Cowes to gain the benefit of his local knowledge of the Solent.
We have 10 crew confirmed (see table below) with a further one person for Cowes. As far as possible, we want to make this an MYC boat so that we can proudly fly the club burgee.
Cowes & Fastnet Info Sheet
Importantly, six that have committed have sailed together offshore a number of times and therefore we are confident that we have the beginnings of a happy, harmonious crew that will have fun together, competing successfully and safely.
Muir is the current nominated Person In Charge for the purposes of the charter and race entries but, once we know the final crew list, we can decide together who will fill the usual roles of skipper, navigator, watch leader, etc.
