Ueshama and Rieri discuss Bluesky on Shigohaji this week. Ueshama said she made an account, I'll go look for it later https://www.onsen.ag/program/shigohaji/
There's been a bunch of anime about girl bands, and a bunch of anime about going out at night. Rieri's been shilling the upcoming anime she's in where a bunch of girls form a band that performs at night. :blobfoxdab: Titled... Jellyfish can't swim in the night.
Shigohaji 169 22:05:
Ueshama and Rieri talk about dressing up in school uniforms and taking part in スクール革命 (School Kakumei, School Revolution) https://www.ntv.co.jp/s-kakumei/
Rieri is excited about wearing a uniform, and Ueshama is a bit embarrassed.
They also talk about this school uniform shop in Harajuku (https://www.conomi.jp/). It sells 'fashion uniforms', but is actually the supplier of real school uniforms. It's where real Japanese schools go to modernize their uniforms every few years.
This week's episode 169 of shigohaji, Rieri and Ueshama celebrate their birthdays with an Ice Cream Cake (アイスケーキ Ice Cake in Japanese).
It's got lots of cute Pokemon decorations on it. The girls joke that this is the only radio program where you can hear female seiyuu ASMR eating Popping Shower (popping candy in cake?!). Apparently Popping Shower is a Baskin-Robbins thing...
Rieri (Ai's seiyuu) did a concert-style cover of the Oshi no Ko opening theme. Her voice isn't as powerful as Ayase, but it is a good attempt :blobfoxaww:
#Seiyuu#TakahashiRie and #UedaReina talk about how they're turning 30 next year and how if you find your 'walls' in your 20s then you have a goal to break thru them. It's some interesting very Japanese philosophy... :ablobfoxhyperthinking: https://www.onsen.ag/program/shigohaji/
I've restarted listening to #AnimeRadio again, and it's interesting how every show is talking about how this summer was HOT. 🥵 Autumn is coming soon, and I'll be flying to 🇯🇵 to see the momiji.
Anyway, I feel that the reason that I can watch anime at 2.2x speed is because I listened to a lot of these kinds of radio for years. Anime speech is usually very much slower than speech IRL because anime convos are much slower and dramatic than a real life conversations. They also match speech to mouth movements for anime (Western animation normally does the reverse), which is why you see those videos of seiyuu trying to time mouth movements very specifically in the studio.
On radio shows, the back and forth can get super fast, so I've trained my ears/brain to process.
