On May 21, there was a charity auction event featuring many Sailor Moon seiyuu, and other seiyuu at the Mitsukoshi department store in Nihonbashi. The charity was for the victims of the Hanshin earthquake. This event was in the open, so everybody was allowed to participate. Pictures were allowed too. I only took 5.5 rolls. (^_^)
There were MANY people.. maybe a thousand or so. They had around 200 chairs, but those were taken by people who had camped out from the previous night. Some of my friends had an extra seat, so they asked me to take pictures from the second row. (^_^;;)
The event flowed as follows.
Because of the guests (Ogata Megumi and Kanemaru Jun'ichi), there were MANY junior high or high school girls.
The next guest was Ogata Megumi. She sang Endless Love , from her first album Half Moon.
The next guests were the young seiyuu. Shocker Ohno and Minky Yas came on the stage as the emcee. The seiyuu guests were Ichijou Kazuya (a dog in Galkeever), Yukino Satsuki (various kids roles in Crayon Shin-chan), Tange Sakura (Suzu in Marmalade Boy), Ikezawa Haruna (various girl and animal roles in Wedding Peach), and Makishima Naoki (Mughi in Dirty Pair, a ninja in Goldrun).
The young seiyuu were asked why they wanted to be a seiyuu..
The next guest was Kamiya Akira, and there was short talk session.
This event came to be when Kamiya Akira and Tomizawa Michie decided
to do something during a recording for Sailor Moon.
Akira said that they wanted to do another similar event later this year,
and one every year from now on.
Akira said that he will release a solo album this summer.
Then he sang
Taiyou no Namida
.
Then they called out the veteran seiyuu: Nozawa Masako, Han Keiko, Ikura Kazu, and Nakao Ryuusei. There was a short talk session again.
Next Kanemaru Jun'ichi sang Ue wo Muite Arukou . After the song, there was a little talk session. Jun'ichi is currently writing a column in the Seiyuu Grand Prix magazine. He wants to write more, and next spring it will come out in a book.
The last song was by Hidaka Noriko, and she sang Megami ga Kureta Ichibyou . She also said that there will be a new single by the Banana Fritters (Seki Toshihiko, Yamadera Kouichi, Hidaka Noriko) in June.
Some of the things were as follows.
There were also 5 signature boards with everybody's signatures on it.
After the auction was over, everyone gave their final comments. Just then Hikami Kyoko came. She had some been doing some work until then.
