The 18th<\/sup> annual Seiyuu Awards was held in Tokyo on March 9 as reported by Oricon<\/a>. The award show recognizes outstanding performances by Japanese voice actors in anime, TV, games and film. This year\u2019s edition covers productions released between October 2022 and September 2023, and saw big wins for actors who lent their talents to Jujutsu Kaisen, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury,\u00a0Frieren and Oshi no Ko.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Most Valuable Seiyuu Award, which is chosen by fans, was presented to Yuichi Nakamura who has done a wide variety of voices and dubbing work for anime, games and film. One of his most recent roles is Satoru Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Main Cast Awards were awarded to Kana Ichinose and Kazuki Ura. Ichinose has played a number of leading roles during this awarding period, including Suletta from Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury and Fern from Frieren: Beyond Journey\u2019s End. In her acceptance speech she said she couldn\u2019t be more thankful towards The Witch from Mercury staff and the character of Suletta. Kazuki Ura, who plays Yoichi Isagi in soccer-themed anime Blue Lock, declared that he was happy to receive this recognition for his work and that he plans to become the best voice actor in the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two of the three Supporting Voice Actor awards also went to The Witch from Mercury cast members- Yohei Azakami for his work voicing hotheaded Guel Jeturk and Mamiko Noto for her performance as the antagonist Prospera Mercury. Manaka Ishimi who plays Akane Kurogawa in Oshi no Ko also received a Supporting Voice Actor award.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Seiyuu Awards began in 2007 and has since become Japan\u2019s biggest voice acting-related event. Starting last year, the individual award categories were renamed to reflect diversity, moving away from actor and actress divisions. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
