Reader’s Question:
I was wondering if the voice actor for the male customer in the taxi queue around 16 minutes and 55 seconds in episode 13 of the anime Detective Conan, titled “The Strange Person Search Murder Case,” is possibly Nobunaga Shimazaki? I didn’t see his name in the ending credits…
Unraveling
the Mystery of Voice Actors in Detective Conan
So, I recently stumbled upon a question about a specific scene in the anime Detective Conan, and it got me thinking about how much I love diving into the details of voice acting in shows I adore. The question revolved around whether the voice actor for a male customer in a taxi queue around 16 minutes and 55 seconds into episode 13 is Nobunaga Shimazaki. To be fair, it’s a pretty interesting query, especially for those of us who geek out over the little things in anime. One of the users chimed in with some solid info, saying that the taxi customer’s voice actor is actually Yamazaki Takumi, with the taxi driver being Chiba Isshin. They mentioned that both names appeared in the ending credits, which makes it pretty clear that there’s no confusion there. It’s always nice when someone can back up their claims with solid proof! What really caught my attention was the user’s side note about the voice actor Hayashi Nobuyuki, who switched to the name Kanemoto Noriyuki. It’s fascinating how voice actors evolve through their careers, sometimes changing names and taking on new roles. I mean, imagine the stories they could tell about their experiences in the industry! I can’t help but appreciate the nostalgia tied to voice actors who have been in the game since the ’90s. I remember when I first got into anime, I was so captivated by the voice acting. It’s like each character has a soul, and the voice actors breathe life into them. The user even mentioned how Yamazaki Takumi had a surge of appearances in Detective Conan back in 1996, which is just wild to think about. It’s like he was the go-to guy for those minor roles! Speaking of nostalgia, it reminds me of my early days watching anime in Osaka, where I’d rush home from school, snacks in hand, excited for the latest episode of my favorite shows. I’d sometimes arrive too early, just to make sure I didn’t miss a second of the action. There was something magical about gathering around the TV, laughing at the comedic moments, and sharing those experiences with friends. It would be great to hear from others about their favorite voice actors or any memorable moments they’ve had while watching anime. Did you ever meet a voice actor or attend an anime event? Or maybe you have a favorite scene that just makes you laugh every time? Share your stories in the comments! Let’s celebrate the magic of anime and the incredible talent behind the voices we love!
