читать дальшеSeiyuu nicknames for one another
General topic: What do the seiyuu call each other when they're on more familiar terms? Inspiration: I was browsing Takahashi Naozumi's blog on his website, and in translating an entry (8 April) for a pal, I found out that he calls his good friend Miyata Kouki by the nickname "Miyata-cchi" (宮田ッチ
. I then started wondering what names or forms of reference the seiyuu use with one another when they've become closer than just co-workers. For example, (listening to the seiyuu talk off "Voice of Weiß"), it seems Yuuki Hiro still sticks with a more traditional [last name]-kun with his fellow Weiß members ("Miki-kun", "Seki-kun", "Koyasu-kun"), while Koyasu Takehito's references have more variance, ostensibly depending on his closesness with them ("Hiro-kun", "Mik-kun", "Tomokazu"). There are also occasions when the seiyuu use nicknames to tease each other, and I'd think they're probably not used very often (Miki Shin'ichirou at one point in one of the "NeoRomance Live"s calls Morikawa Toshiyuki "Mori-chan").
Question: Has anyone noticed/looked up/heard seiyuu -- probably the ones who are very chummy and have been working together often or for extended periods of time -- referring to each other in familiar or "cute" ways like this? Also, what nicknames do you use for the seiyuu when you talk about them to your fellow seiyuu fans? And if anyone knows what nicknames the Japanese fanbase uses...?
- I know of some. Seki Toshihiko calls Hirata Hiroaki "Hira-chan" Ishida Akira once called Hoshi Souichiro "Iro-chan" in a cute voice. And... mm, I'd have to re-listen to the even to remember all the suffixes they use with each other, but those are the ones I can think of at the top of my head.
- I just noticed, during some interviews Ishida said "Hoshi-kun", but Hoshi always called him "Ishida-san" and just called him "Ishida-kun" once.
- Iro-chan? XD I know that Ishida Akira seems to have a crush on Hoshi but, hmm... that sounds just too good to be true.
- I personally love Ishida x Hoshi... Actually I was into Ishida and he mentioned during an interview that he likes Hoshi a lot and I thought, "Hoshi? Who is this?" and later on I fell in love with Hoshi as well ^^
- found a place where SekiToshi uses "Hira-chan":: Haha, that *is* cute XD
- Um... Okiayu-san calls Kaida Yuki "oba-chan"...which is funny. In one Rajipuri episode (I think 8), she also mentions he once wrote Oba-chama on a christmas card to her. In that show, he also sing-songs "obachan, obachan, obachan..." when she has to drink Inui Jiru for losing a challenge. ^___^ Kaida-san calls Kondou Takayuki "Kon-chan"... You can get tons of them from just listening to Rajipuri. There are some others... but I can't think of them off the top of my head.
- I was talking to some Japanese fans at a Weiß concert and was really surprised to hear them refer to Yuuki Hiro as 'Hiro-kun'. I don't know whether that's the norm or not though. ^^;;
- It seems to be standard. I've encountered Japanese fans who call SekiTomo "Tomokazu-kun" . . . I've also heard Yuuki referred to as "Hiro-kun" and "Hiro-san" on various occasions.
- forgot the second question kishuu_arashi 2005-05-05 23:26 (link) Most of the fans call Kaida Yuki "Kaida-san"...that or "Yukkii," after the nickname she uses for "Takada Hiroyuki Radio City Hall"...which she does with Takahashi Hiroki) (Reply to this) summer_queen 2005-05-05 23:39 (link) In one of the annual seiyuu 'fact books' Okiayu lists his personal nickname as being Ryo-chan, which just seems absolutely adorable. I can just imagine some of the other seiyuu calling him that. ^____^
- In EMU lives, Canna Nobutoshi calls his fellow EMU members Ryou-chan (Okiayu), Hikaru-chan (Midorikawa), Hideo-chan (Ishikawa) and... I can't remember Sakaguchi. ;;>_> Dai-chan? <-- guessing. I think Midorikawa calls Canna "Can-chan". In Neoroma events, LOTS of nicknames get thrown around. Too many for me to remember offhand. >_> Miyata Kouki calls Takahashi Naozumi "Naochan". ^_^
- I think during the EMU First Live, Canna did call Sakaguchi Dai-chan. Yeah, during Neoromance events they all use a bunch of nicknames, it's quite fun XD I've heard everyone either call Takahashi Naozumi "Nao-chan" or "Nao-kun", I don't think he's ever called by his last name. I think Morikawa Toshiyuki was called "MoriMori" a couple of times. Ah... and in one Neoromance Paradise radio show, I heard Hoshi called Horiuchi Kenyuu "KenKen" Really cute ^^; that's all I could remember now.
- One haracter interaction along these lines that I remember was Oscar hitting on Yasuaki and girlifying his name, thus calling him "Yasu-chan" or something of that nature... Later I watched another, where Oscar (Horiuchi Ken'yuu) and Yorihisa (Miki Shin'ichirou) were talking. Yorihisa calls him "Oscar-dono", but Oscar tells him (in his suave charming ladies' man way) to just call him "Oscar". Miki-san then gave Horiuchi-san a pervy sort of grin, and repeated "Oscar..." with a little deliberate, breathy emphasis that made the slash!fans in the audience squeal. XD And further on in the skit, Oscar then calls him "Yori-chan". XD
- Even MikiShin calls him "Naokun." XD I've heard Ohtani Ikue call him Takahashi-san, but it's clear that the eight hachiyou seiyuu are much closer. Horiuchi is also Kenyuu-san and Ken-chan sometimes. Morikawa Toshiyuki calls Tachiki Fumihiko "Fumi" and Tachiki calls him "Toshi" back. Hehe. I think it's the first NRF, where Iwata Mitsuo and Miki Shinichirou were on opposite sides of the stage and they called each other "Micchan" and "Shin-chan".
- Some random Weiss interview I chanced upon once - I think I heard Seki refer to Koyasu as "Koyasu-san" at one instance and then I think I heard him saying "Koyasu" when addressing the man directly. (Bear in mind that I cannot understand any form of Japanese) Koyasu addresses Seki as "Tomokazu", Yuuki Hiro as "Hiro-kun" and Miki as "Miki-kun", and Miki referred to him as "Koyasu-san" as well. I could ask my dad how do Koyasu and Seki normally addresses each other. ^.~ He is acquainted with SekiTomo and had met Koyasu once in some kind of filming meeting (and he had no idea who the hell they are, so).
- People that had voiced drama from Pastel and was in Live Pastel Collection called Miki Shinichirou "MikiShin". Morikawa Toshiyuki appearently want others to call him "MoriMori'. >_>; Either MoriMori or Kosugi-san called Ishi-chan "Akira-kun". Forgot who though. = =
- Naruto Nippon reference: Morikubo calls Canna Nobutoshi 'Nobutoshi-san' and when Canna Nobutoshi was talking about Morikubo, he called him 'Shoutarou' and i remember hearing someone call Morikawa 'morimori' in a BL drama free talk. That or mori-kun. =D ah there was a section in Radio ZEro Sum? Hosted by Takahashi Hiroki and SuzuKen, where Ishida akira was the guest. The pictures they put up showed them teasing Ishida Akira with a birthday cake (it was almost his birthday) and they had a picture of the cake and on it it said 'Akira-kun'
- i remember that thing about Morikubo! ^^ and Morikubo called Takeuchi Junko and Minagawa Junko "Junchan" Takeuchi-san doesn't really like him though...
- i was reading the translations for that Naruto Nippon and when they were Nobutoshi said something about Morikubo coming to his has to do that computer thing, Nobutoshi invited her, but she said she didn't really get along with Morikubo so she would come another time. i remember something like that, though i haven't really listened to it recently.
- Peeped into a couple more seiyuu talks... it's all a pretty normal -kun/-san everywhere (including one of the Gundam Wing parody cassette dramas where the only name-use I found was Orikasa Ai very cutely mentioning Okiayu-kun) ...except for when I get to Hoshi Souichirou saying "Hira-san" for Hirata Hiroaki. XD
- Just to clarify a usage thing - use of kun/chan is not necessarily due to emotional closeness/friendship. It also has to do with age, seniority in the business, etc. I.e. probably the main reason SekiTomo is "Tomokazu" amongst Weiss is because he's the youngest and least experienced in the group. At one point in a radio show Yuuki yelled "Koyasu!" at Koyappi and Koyappi said he didn't mind "yobisute" (ie using no suffixes) because Yuuki is older than he is. Most seiyuu seem to have nicks, and I suspect many of them created them for themselves rather than had them decided by others . . . ^^; I try to use what the particular seiyuu uses for him/herself, or what s/he doesn't seem to mind when others call them by nicknames . . .
- konitan on a rajipuri show when Katsuyuki Konishi appeared where minajun and kaida san were hosting.minajun was introducing the guest and she was saying konitan instead of the full name (Katsuyuki Konishi)lol and when she finally did pronounce his name (Katsuyuki Konishi)....kaida yuki said its alrite to call him konitan lol~and i think for the rest of the show,they called him konitan ^^ Konishi Katsuyuki is probably too long for them to pronounce lol~ esp since both kaida san (in shounen onmyoji) and junko san (loveless anime and fookies) both work with konitan together lol. i think they did some other works together,cant remember offhandly. also takahashi hiroki,hiro chan by kaida yuki also.(i think in one of the raji shows again) naozumi takahashi is commonly known as nao chan or nao kun lol. and inoue kazuhiko once called morikubo showtarou in naruto raji " show chan' and morikubo was like show chan lol....so cute....not to mentioned that morikubo showtarou and inoue kazuhiko did some BL works before naruto its really quite amusing to listen to the seiyuus calling one another nicks or giving themselves nicks and yes if u listen/watch the neo romance festas,seiyuus call one another using nicks
- Anyone happen to know what MoriMori calls Ishi-chan? I can't remember. T_T By the way, among Japanese fans, they call Ishi-chan "A~san" (あ~さん.
- I read "A-san" wrongly in a dialect and thought it means "auntie". O.o
- Interesting topic. But most of these seiyuu are usually fairly inconsistent with their nicknames for each other. It's more of a situation where they feel like calling someone by whatever nickname they can think of at that moment. Tachiki Fumihiko usually addresses Morikawa Toshiyuki as "Toshi" while Morikawa addresses him as "Fumi." But this is only when they're in their 2HEARTS mode. ^^; Everyone else usually addresses Morikawa as "Morimori." Everyone usually calls Takahashi Naozumi "Nao chan." Aside from Neo Romance, Seki Toshihiko calls Morikubo Shoutarou as "Shou chan" many times. Saint Beast folks call Fukuyama Jun "Junjun". Suzumura Kenichi addresses Sakurai Takahiro back and forth as either "Sakurai kun" or "Takahiro kun~" when he's feeling cute. Similarly, more than once, Sakurai has called him "Kenicchi~" Gawds, I love those two. XD;
- eeeh I wish I knew enough japanese to understand they talking T_T anyway, I happen to have a couple of seiyuu data file I got in Animedia magazine in 1996 and 2001 (next one comes out next year, w00t!, and BTW if someone wants me to scan something from the data files, just ask , ok? ;D) and in the 2001 they were to write their nickname in one field. (meh, and my english sucks u_ú Here's a list with some of them (the ones I could read =D): Aikawa Iwako - NAO Iizuka Mayumi - Ma-chan/Maitan Ikezawa Haruna - Ha-chan/NANA chan Inoue Kikuko - Oneechan (haha I wonder who calls her this as a nickname =D) Iwao Junko - Junko san Enomoto Atsuko - Acchan Ohtani Ikue - Iku chan Ogata Megumi - OGATA (in katakana) Okiayu Ryoutarou - Ryou chan/ OKKI~ Onosaka Masaya - MASAYANGU (any ideias?) Kamiya Akira - JII niyan Kanna Nobutoshi - Kan chan/Noburin Kuwashima Houko - Ho-chan/Kuwa chan Sasaki Nozomu - Nozomu sama (^^) Shiratori Yuri - SHIRATARI Suyama Akio - Su-kun Seki Toshihiko - SEKI chan (soo cute ;_ Seki Tomokazu - chin chin (nooo comments!! Seki is a perv XD) Takagi Wataru - Wa-kun Takano Urara - CHAKO chan Takeuchi Junko - Junko chan Tomizawa Michie - Micchan Nishihara Kumiko - Ku-chan/Baka Onna (hahah poor Ku-chan XD) Noda Junko - Noda chan/ NodaJun Paku Romi - Pakkun (cute XD) Hisakawa Aya - Hi-chan/Aya chan Hidaka Noriko - NONKO (she wrote in romaji) Hiramatsu Akiko - Pira chan/Pira Fuchizaki Yuriko - Fucchan/Fucchi~ Horie Yui - Hocchan/Yui chan Rika Matsumoto - Rikao Mitsuhashi Kanako - Kana chan Midorikawa Hikaru - Pikarin (^^) Miyamura Yuuko - Miyamu~ Morikawa Toshiyuki - MoriMori (w00t! XD) Yamaguchi Kappei - Kappe~ Yamadera Kouichi - Yama chan Yuuki Hiro - Yuuki san (^^) Yukino Satsuki - Hime (^^') Yokoyama Chisa - Chisa/ Chi-chan Also in the other one Iwanaga Tetsuya instead of putting his full name on top of the kanji (the furigana...thingie), he wrote Tecchan (so cute XD) (Reply to this) (Thread) Re: Seiyuu Data File ssj_mato 2005-05-06 17:38 (link) Nice list. THanks for that. I wish I had an animedia issue with that info... I was going to post Miyamu for Miyamura Yuko but you beat me to it. 'Chako' is also used for Shibahara Chiyako. I think that's what Miyamura Yuko called her when they were both working on Hyper Police. If not, it's what Hayashibara Megumi called her when they worked on Pocket Monsters. Hidaka Noriko (NONKO) called Hayashibara Megumi "Megu-chan" when they were working on Ranma 1/2.
- hiroki takahashi(kikumaru) seems to perfer being called his first name without suffixes (pretty western style i think). even takayuki kondou who is the super kouhai in the group gets to call him hiroki. just about the only person who doesn't call him hiroki is kaida yuki because she's older than him and female so in cuteness i think that's why she calls him hiro-chan. (prolly the other reason why is they've probably known each other the longest... they've been through hunter hunter musicals, radio shows, tv etc for like how many years now?) Shoutaro Morikubo (akaya) seems to like it when everyone called him Shou-chan (regardless of age), but it seems like only people familiar with him tend to do this.... Masaya Onosaka (momoshiro) seems to get called masayang by just about everyone. *just to let people know, when you're speaking about someone in passing, or third person, in japanese it's typical to refer to them by [last name]-san even if you're somewhat friendly with them ...at least this is what my japanese teacher tells me.....
- hmm, Junko Takeuchi started the whole "Nontan" thing for Noriaki Sugiyama. it was too funny when Kazuhiko Inoue referred to Shoutarou Morikubo as "Shou-chan" and Morikubo was like "Shou-chan?!??" and Kazuhiko also playfully (not to mention flirtatiously) called Romi Paku, "Paku-chan" XD in a leave a message segment in a radio show then he later compliments her a lot and Romi's WTF-ness was so hysterical. XD

17.02.2007 в 09:33Я как раз немножко написала во вчерашнем посте - про Хи-тяна и Джун-Джуна... Но Тоши - это круто!
Морикава (ну да, он удостоился максимума моего внимания...
А, еще Накахару (если я правильно поняла) называют Абе-сан. Или это мой глюк. Хммм?..

17.02.2007 в 13:25даже почти и не шутка. Я жутко люблю ковыряться в таких мелочах ( а то не заметно
У тебя я тоже читала про все эти сокращеньица. Забавно как. Я для себя вот никак не могу преодолеть определённый барьер - очень строго говоря, ещё и не хочу: мне эти люди по большей части ровесники плюс обладатели страшно уважаемой профессии, и я к ним даже про себя - с пиететом и почтением XD
Дуэта Морикавы-сенсея и Хориути-сенсея я не видела - знаю только, что Х. зовут Кен-Кен (XD), Кен-ю-сан и Кен-тян. Обрыдаться
И вот ещё вопрос - я поздно подумала: здесь кандзи-то видно? Я не ожидала, что дневники их воспринимают, печатала как было в оригинале - и у меня отражается *__*

17.02.2007 в 14:05Я, кстати, до сих пор не очень поняла, что означает, если суффиксов нет. То есть я знаю несколько вариантов - что это может быть и оскорбительным, и признаком особой близости, а в то же время, видимо, может и вполне нейтрально восприниматься. В определенное, как ты говоришь, время суток и пр.
Я жутко люблю ковыряться в таких мелочах
У, я все мечтаю найти хорошую книжицу, или хотя бы сайт, где будет хорошо и со знанием дела написано про всякие тонкости. Мне это так вкусно, а инфа находится какая-то в основном дилетантская.
я к ним даже про себя - с пиететом и почтением
Ммм, некоторых я точно никогда -тяном не назову. Собственно, даже все время приходится бороться с желанием поставить -доно ^.^ Но некоторые

18.02.2007 в 00:54В междусейюшных отношениях отсутствие суффикса как правило - знак приятельства или особо тесной сиюминутной профессиональной близости. Но тут опять - тоже важно, кто кому такое говорит

18.02.2007 в 10:18Да, я про это наслышана уже... Но встает вопрос: а как они сами-то друг друга понимают за всеми этими этикетными прибабахами и многослойными контекстами?
если хочешь, могу поделиться - как ты понимаешь, тоже с удовольствием
где вполне возможно получить грамотные ответы
Э... Чтобы получать ответы, надо сначала задавать вопросы. Мне еще пока рано.

Иииии! *возмущается*
