Hi, this is just a personal post. I'll appreciate it if you can read it but you can also ignore it.
So i've been lurking around youtube and if you do too, you've probably seen some seiyuu related events that are being subbed. Naturally, i will watch a vid where terashii is there and as i scrolled down the comments, tbh, i got sad. I got sad because all i see are people laughing over tatsu, kaji yuki and mamo. Just to be clear, i know we can't really tell people to "hey notice terashii too!!" because that'll be stupid!
I'm just ranting about how i felt. I felt, and still am, lacking. if you read the comments, they were saying that "tatsu and mamo are so blablaa that even kaji can't blablabla their chaotic side" and they did not comment about terashii, it's like he didn't exist. those comments made me realize that they really don't know terashii. You see, if you know terashii or just watch a lot of seiyuu events that just happen to have terashii in it, you'll know that he is a tsukkomi, just like kaji. He can control a seiyuu's chaotic side too. he is a famous tsukkomi on the seiyuu industry. even mamo and tatsu know that terashii can receive their pitches. it just made me sad to see all the comments that just ignore terashii there...
i'll be honest i don't know what the heck i'm saying.
You may say that i'm overreacting or being stupid, i think so too. however, i just really feel that way. we can't force people. i know that and i always tell myself that. I thought that if some fans subbed vids that has terashii in it then they will see a side of him and make them interested in him but what i saw in the comment is not like that...
i get that. maybe the don't know him or he is overshadowed by big names. yes maybe. that'll be fine because maybe those people weren't into the seiyuu industry that'll be completely understandable.
so back to the personal part, i feel lacking because i'm not good enough in japanese to translate what he is saying. He is a good person. He is humble and always see himself as inferior but try his hardest for the people who support him. He is very good at talking, even a lot of his fellow seiyuu says that. He is amazing but i'm so mad at myself for not being able to translate it to international fans.
As a person with inferiority complex, he is very inspiring to me and i want to share that to other people. i am studying japanese, slowly but surely, i just need to catch up with real life these days because i'm preparing to find a job.
He is very loving to his character, sees every good thing to people, he invited his kohais to eat and etc. I always see Japanese fans cry over his blog posts. That's because they can see his genuine side but most international fans can't see that. It can be because they don't understand or because they just don't care. However, i do think some people don't really care because they can't understand what he saying.
on twitter, he doesn't have much international people "stanning" him. sure they like him but stanning is different. so it's really hard to promote him to other people.
my purpose is not to actually make people stan him, but to make people appreciate him. I always hear other seiyuus compliment him. They compliment him for his communication skills because it can touch someone's heart, and i think that it's such a waste that only japanese fans can hear his sincere words. He is not just some seiyuus that plays with other seiyuus, he is someone that also support other seiyuus even without knowing it. If you listen to some radio shows, there are seiyuus who said that terashii did indeed helped them and they feel relieved when he is there.
my sister said that terashii is good enough with japanese fans, he don't really need the international side that much, which is true!! but like i said, if his sincere message, spazzing about a series, enthusiastic post about an events and etc can make other people happy, relate or inspire then what's wrong with wanting other people to notice him?
i don't know where the heck i'm going with what i'm saying but i guess my wish is, if you can understand japanese and loves terashii, please do consider sharing something related in him... it's a ridiculous request but if it can at least gives you an idea then i'll be nothing but grateful. please don't hesitate!
i have no ill intention by writing this post, i'm not demanding anything, i'm just writing this because i'm not good enough and just encouraging others to do whatever if they have the time or care enough.
