Alright, let’s talk about this “My Hero Academia” thing and that fella, Mamoru Miyano. I ain’t no fancy writer, so I’ll just tell it to ya straight, like I’m talkin’ to ya over the fence.
So, this “My Hero Academia,” it’s one of them picture shows, you know, like them cartoons, but they call it “anime” now. Fancy, huh? Anyways, it’s about these kids with superpowers, goin’ to school to learn how to be heroes. Sounds kinda silly, but the young’uns, they love it. And this Mamoru Miyano, he’s a voice actor in it. That means he makes the noises for the characters.
Who is this Mamoru Miyano fella, anyway?
Well, from what I hear, this Miyano fella, he’s a big deal in Japan. Born in 1983, which makes him… well, never you mind how old he is. He ain’t just a voice actor neither. He sings and acts too, like one of them all-around entertainers. Heard he’s from Saitama Prefecture, wherever that is. Sounds fancy, though.
- He’s done voices for all sorts of characters. Some angry fella named Chrollo Lucilfer, a pretty boy named Tamaki Suou, and a fella named Rin Matsuoka who swims, I think. He even voiced a vampire named Zero Kiryuu. Vampires! Can you believe it?
- But in “My Hero Academia,” he ain’t one of the main hero kids. Nope, he voices a fella called Amai Mask, also known as Ikemen kamen amai masuku, whatever that means. Sounds like a mouthful to me.
Now, this Amai Mask character, he’s a hero too, but not one of the students. He’s got his own style, a bit more… flashy, maybe. And Miyano, he makes this character sound just right. I reckon that’s why they hired him. He’s good at makin’ different voices, that’s for sure.
What’s all the fuss about “My Hero Academia”?
Like I said, it’s about these kids learnin’ to be heroes. There’s this one kid, Deku, real name Izuku Midoriya. Another voice actor, Daiki Yamashita, he does the voice for Deku. Born in 1989, that makes him younger than Miyano, see? Anyways, Deku and his classmates, they gotta learn to use their powers, called “Quirks,” to fight villains and protect folks.
And this show, it ain’t just for kids, mind you. Grown-ups watch it too. It’s got action, it’s got heart, and it’s got them fancy animations that make everything look all bright and shiny. And they got voice actors like Miyano and this other fella, Matranga, who does the voice for Shoto Todoroki, another one of them hero kids, makin’ them characters come alive.
Why Mamoru Miyano is important to the show?
Well, even though he ain’t the main voice, Miyano, he’s still important. See, in them picture shows, the voices gotta match the characters. If you got a strong, handsome fella, he needs a strong, handsome voice. And Miyano, he’s got that kind of voice. He can make his voice sound smooth, he can make it sound tough, he can make it sound however he needs it to sound. That’s a skill, I tell ya.
And it ain’t just about the voice, it’s about the emotion too. Miyano, he can make you feel what the character’s feelin’. If the character’s angry, you’ll hear the anger in his voice. If the character’s sad, you’ll hear the sadness. That’s what makes a good voice actor, and that’s what Miyano is.
Plus, having a big name like Mamoru Miyano attached to the show, it brings in the viewers. People know him, they like him, they wanna see what he’s doin’. It’s like havin’ a famous movie star in your picture show, it just makes it more popular.
So, there ya have it. That’s the lowdown on Mamoru Miyano and his part in “My Hero Academia.” He’s a talented fella, that’s for sure. And this show, it’s somethin’ special, even this old lady can see that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. All this talk about heroes and villains has made me hungry.
