Eri Kitamura 喜多村 英梨
Feeling pretty lazy today. Was working in the afternoon on a “certain” post whereby all the zotaku writers are bugging me to finish it XD. I totally forgot that today is Seiyuu Sunday, as last week I was sooo excited to post Hocchan up that I was counting down the days to it. Haha! Okay, and well, I was thinking of a few seiyuus I know, and Eri Kitamura caught my attention. She’s currently voicing Hinata in Kanamemo, with Hocchan. And Hocchan was just discussing about Kanamemo on her radio show recently =D.

You should know her from the following anime series! [ANN]:
- Asura Cryin’ (TV) as Rikka Kurasawa
- Bakemonogatari (TV) as Karen Araragi
- Blood+ (TV) as Saya Otonashi
- Chaos;HEAd (TV) as Rimi Sakihata
- Ga-Rei -Zero- (TV) as Natsuki Kasuga
- IDOLM@STER: XENOGLOSSIA (TV) as Makoto Kikuchi
- Kanamemo (TV) as Hinata Azuma
- Kaze no Stigma (TV) as Michael Harley
- Kemeko Deluxe! (TV) as Sanpeita Kobayashi
- Kodomo no Jikan (TV) as Rin Kokonoe
- Minami-ke (TV) as Yuka Uchida
- Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu (TV) as Yoshiko Sawamura
- Toradora! (TV) as Ami Kawashima
She is primarily known for her role in Blood+ as Saya Otonashi and singing the third ending for the anime series Konjiki No Gash Bell (Zatch Bell). She is also known to be an amateur manga artist in Japan in her spare time.
Interesting, I didn’t know she actually draws in her spare time. Wonder whether any of her works are published? =D. That would be so cool! I didn’t watch Zatch Bell at all, but I did catch the dub version of it on my local television. A pity I lost interest in it, well anyway I don’t think the songs were broadcasted anyway. They love to cut away the remaining OP/ED songs – only using the FIRST OP and ED of each show ><.
I guess I took notice of her when she did Ami in Toradora! That was the period when I started to be become a seiyuu-obsessed fan. Oops =X. I hate Ami in Toradora! but I sorta love Hinata in Kanamemo. Aww.
Here are the various anime characters she did that you might recognise. Well well?
Interesting, she did Rin Kokonoe!! LOLI!!! Did you know that Mr Optic? =D.
HOLY SHIT I DIDN’T BUT… I did know she sang the OP for the 1st season and OVA.
(Grabbed both tracks a few weeks back. ;) )
Does that mean i still fail? >_>
Let’s just say, I failed halfway. :P
The voice of Rin Kokonoe is clearly the standout role I know her…………NOW!!!! xD
[Reply]
:-o
Whattttt
I can’t believe that her role as Shiranui Akeno from Seto no Hanayome was not outlined.
[Reply]
Well her only recognizable role to me is Ami from Toradora and Saya from BLOOD+. I watched CHAOS;Head and Kaze no Stigma as well, but can’t really remember the characters that she voiced >.<.
[Reply]
I know I only remembered her from blood + and Idolm@aster
[Reply]
@Donyea
Is Idolm@ster any good? I wanted to try it, but after I found out that the anime is not related to the game, I kind of gave up on it O.o
[Reply]
can’t say much about her singing…..but she did do a wonderful job as saya in blood+
[Reply]
Wait… wait…. SHE DOES the YAOI Junjou Egoist!!??? xD
Why did you show a picture of Hiroku but not mention Junjou romantica in your list of voices lol.
She does the perfect manly tsundere personality LOL
You also for got to mention Akeno Shiranui from Seto no Hanayome (One of my favorite characters)
(Edit: Lol M~ You beat me to it didn’t you?~ We must complain xD)
[Reply]
@bluesnow
Yeahhh. I’m still complaining. >.< Akeno – The swordswoman-mermaid. Doesn’t get any better than that.
[Reply]
@ Optic: Seriously, you fail as a Rin fanboy now -_-
@ M: Lol I was just picking here and there =X.
@ guuzen: i only remember her as Ami in Toradora! and the next show is Kanamemo -_-
@ Donyea: Sadly, I haven’t seen Blood+ yet. Maybe I should catch it one of these days =D
@ mei: Her singing is bad? o.O
@ bluesnow: I was doing some selection :P
[Reply]
@zenical
U must know, this seiyuu is tough. -_-
I guess I’m not qualify to have any favourites. :P
[Reply]
Typo “seiyuu business”
[Reply]
@ guuzen It is some what related with having pop singers in it. Also it was actually not as bad as I thought it was going to be.
[Reply]
@zenical, it’s probably because i can’t reconcile her singing voice with her portrayal of blood+’s saya
[Reply]
She apparently does Alleyne/Areine from Queen’s Blade too. Wow it’s still difficult for me to imagine that this voice and Ami’s voice are the same o_o
