What's a voice actor you can only link to one or two LI roles in your mind?

[orionsbestie]

Like, ever since I played Piofiore I can only hear Morikubo Showtaro's voice and think of Gilbert even though I've heard that man in many other roles. Also Ryohei Kimura, nowadays depending on how I hear his voice, the one popping up in my head is either Nicola or Kou from Diabolik Lovers lmao, sometimes I forget he voiced Shiraishi in collar x malice for some reason...

 

[usagi-k]

for me nobuhiko okamoto is someone i associate with radie from radiant tale even though he's had soo many roles which have been much more iconic as well but idk ??? he's just the most memorable to me as him and i felt like his range was explored super well in voicing radie's character

other than him makoto furukawa is someone i can only see and hear as allan from cupipara - it's such an iconic role for him and everytime i hear his cv for another li i just end up comparing it to allan like his voice fits allan's character and visual soooo well !!

 

[lyrevega]

I think I'll never be able to see Suzuki Ryota as anyone but Murakami Yona from tengoku struggle

 

[koko36]

Omg for me it's totally Kimura Ryohei no matter what role he's in, I always hear him as Nicola from Piofiore I know he's done so much other stuff, but that smooth, low-key dangerous voice is forever Nicola in my head ~

 

[mizumachi]

whenever i hear ono yuuki i immediately think about yuzuru saeki from collar x malice. i know he's a side character but in my heart, he's the true LI.

likewise, i also immediately associate kimura ryohei with nicola. i think his voice really suits characters like that

 

[Arisara]

Daisuke Hirakawa always hear as Saint-Germain from Code Realize and Tachibana Shinnosuke as Shitara Seiji from Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side: 3rd Story.

 

[ratsy]

Okitsu Kazuyuki will forever be Ankou, and only Ankou to me

 

[freidynes]

i associate furukawa makoto with allan from cupid parasite. though i also like his characters in other otoges, him being allan really stuck with me

 

[lst]

When I played Demons' Bond, I always associated Itou Kentarou's voice with Renji Abarai in my mind.

 

[Somniari]

probably, it's morikubo shoutarou as okita souji... since it was my first otome game and it was my little obsession at the time
but since then i've played quite the number of otome games and other games in general, so it never happened again
i'm more focused on voice acting, rather than a role nowadays. and if i liked someone's voice acting in one game it can become a gateway to another game where that same voice actor is acting, cause i know that i'll get at least one character that sounds familiar... if that makes sense...

 

[lambdadelta]

shinnosuke tachibana as tmgs3 seichan as well! no matter how many times i hear him in other roles, he's always shitara to me. niina also shares a voice actor with aoba seragaki, it's impossible not to make that association... you really can hear aoba everytime he speaks

 

[sylvenna]

It's Umehara Yuuichirou as Benkei (Birushana) for me. He sounds exactly the same as Lowd in Neon Clash and Alfred in Mistonia.
I could tell right away without looking at the cast.

It was very distracting for me because I've replayed Birushana way too many times. I keep seeing Benkei in my head when those characters speak lol.

 

[sylvenna]

i associate furukawa makoto with allan from cupid parasite. though i also like his characters in other otoges, him being allan really stuck with me

Oooh I also love Furukawa Makoto. I know him as Yoritomo first.
I could recognise him as Allan, though he sounds different enough, and as Hokuto in Hanaemu. Side note: why are his most popular roles all purple-coded?

The only role he's voiced that I couldn't recognise at all is in an old R18 game (his only R18 Otome ever ) Ao no Shigyaku Midori no Higyaku.

 

[pepology]

Matsuoka Yoshitsugu as Akaza… I think that character is clearly loved by the writers lmao, he's just too strong

 

[king犬]

Hikaru Midorikawa voiced Shiki in *Togainu no Chi*. This was the first BL game I ever played, and Shiki is my favorite character. Even with other characters he voiced afterward, I still remember Shiki's voice.

 

[Leviathan_01]

I can't stop associating Yuki Kaji with Kanato Sakamaki even after all this time. Whenever I hear his voice in any other otome game or anime, I instantly remember Kanato's tantrums, haha, or him singing Scarborough Fair. Another one is Junichi Suwabe, but instead of recognizing him from an otome game character, I think of Sukuna! When I was playing Lovebrush Chronicles and heard Lars for the first time, I immediately thought of Sukuna, but now that I'm playing Café Enchanté, when I heard Rindo's voice, I thought of Lars.

Me tooooo and Impey Barbicane from Code Realize!!

 

[Meringue]

Daisuke Hirakawa is in every otome under the sun, but I'll only ever hear him as Laito Sakamaki. Likewise with most of the DiaL cast honestly, Yuki Kaji, Hikaru Midorikawa, and Kosuke Toriumi are also victims

 

[hana@124]

I think 岡本 信彦 is the voice actor who impressed me a lot. I really like Yang's voice and Minami, who were played by him

 

[chardonnay]

for me, Hirakawa Daisuke is always Mizuhito from Chou no Doku Hana no Kusari. idk, i just fall in love with his tone and vibes

 

[Harmonea]

Not an otome LI, but I can almost only hear Xiao from Genshin whenever I hear Matsuoka Yoshitsugu.

I say "almost" because Alice in Taisho x Alice was such a radically different demeanor and so well done that he broke the perception. But only for that one game. It was right back to Xiao when I met him next in Itehari lol.

I saw a thread a while back saying the same about Maeno Tomoaki and Zhongli, too.

It's Umehara Yuuichirou as Benkei (Birushana) for me. He sounds exactly the same as Lowd in Neon Clash and Alfred in Mistonia.

Oh, play Cafe Enchante for a good cackle sometime; Canus is basically the same character as Benkei in both voice and personality, haha.

 

[mozuu]

I can't stop thinking about Hijikata when I hear Miki Shinichiro's voice, he's perfect for him

 

[Watera]

KENN (Oohashi Ken'ichirou)
He voiced characters i like
Yukimaro R.I.P9
Kei Ken ga kimi
Orpheus Reine des Fleurs
Adamas jewelic nightmare
