Sore ga Seiyuu! 4
These random cameos!
I guess this is the anime version of the Stephen Tobolowsky-esque character actor. I find it amusing that he played Worf in the Japanese dub of Star Trek - he certainly has the voice for it.
But I called it:
I mean it wasn't the hardest call, but they're actually going to be voice acting idols. I just like the seeming artificiality of it, especially given how these girls basically don't have any known singing or dancing talent, but it's just easy to push any kind of idol-like production onto otaku and they'll presumably eat it up.
Sure, it doesn't really treat the whole seiyuu industry in anyway close to as dark as any examination of Hollywood, but I figure this is as close to an admission of the whole insanity of the industry that every single aspect of anime can be commodified and turned into something that you can sell - even the voice actresses that you never see in real life.
But at this point, I have no idea what's left short of showing them do video games or break out into shitty jdrama tv shows/movies. I suppose the darker side is basically pornography, but other than that one anime about the girl who does porn for her sister's porn company, I don't think this anime will even get close to that.
But maybe they'll do gravure shots sometime. I know at least one person here who likes gravure photobooks of seiyuu. lol

On a different note, how many fucking waifus is Darling going to get in
Monster Girls? He just got another one and the preview said he's getting a fucking Mermaid next. lol
And I'm annoyed because Kobayashi didn't even get a single line this episode. It's like she disappeared to make room for all these monster waifus.
