Okay I realize that seiyuus can take on
other roles, and I have already hear Zoro’s seiyuu, Kazuya Nakai in other animes like
Hataraki Man or Nodame Cantatible but it is strange to hear Ussop’s
seiyu, Kappei Yamaguchi in this
anime. As I looked at the credits he did in other anime, I’m very
surprised to see him in so many of my favorite anime – anime that I
never watched in Japanese – so this is a surprise. I guess watching the
ending of Enies Lobby with Ussop crying out for Luffy had an effect on
how I would react listening to different animes with the same
seiyuu.
Rizelmine is an anime
that ran in 2002 about Iwaki Tomonori, a 15 year old with a preference
toward older woman. One day as he came home from school, he finds out
that the Japanese government married him to Rizel a 12 year old. Man is
he pissed off. But there is a deeper story of why Rizel chose him as a
husband.
It’s funny how Rizel keeps on calling
Iwaki-san – Danna-sama (husband) and keeps on getting thrown out like a
football.. occasionally wrapped in a blanket. I am reminded of City Hunter: .357 Magnum where Kaori
throws Ryo out the window either wrapped in a blanket or only in his
boxes. Hilarious if like this type of
humor.
This anime has many sexual parody
jokes and as mentioned in the
entry, there were criticism
for this show, but that is not the intention, so for any conservative
viewers, Rizelmine must be taken with a grain of
salt.
