Seiyuu Image Gallery/Dump
When I first got into seiyuu, high-quality magazine scans and images were almost non-existent. It was hard to import magazines, most of what you saw online was thumbnail-sized and heck, I didn’t even own a scanner then. Of course it’s a totally different story nowadays with most of the major mags (Seigura, Seiyuu Animedia, Voice Newtype, PUV) easily obtainable and scans a cinch to find on places like Seiup and Seiyuup.
I have been collecting whatever images I could find of my favourites online for a number of years but sad to say, lost great batches of them in two separate hard drive crashes. Perseverance has enabled me to claw some of them back, but I’ve found myself getting annoyed by various things people do with scans:
1.watermark them with their silly online username or website
2.put them in a rar file with a password which is only obtainable if you lick the scanner’s ass
3.make people ‘pay’ for them on forums with shitty forum points or whatever
For god’s sake it’s just a piece of paper, you don’t own the copyright. If you’re so cheesed off about people ’stealing’ your (already stolen) scans then don’t upload the bloody thing in the first place. The pictures are bound to get around the interwebs sooner or later regardless of your efforts.
So in the interest of sharing and sticking up two fingers at these selfish people and whatnot blabla, I’m starting a Photobucket that will hopefully keep all my images organized (since they’re completely messy in my archives). They’re a mix of my own scans and stuff I’ve leeched from some forum, dug out of 2ch’s nether regions etc etc. You can usually tell which of the scans are mine cos they’re really crap – I have a small scanner and I don’t like pulling my magazines apart.
Anyway, if anyone’s interested in contributing pics (particularly older ones) then feel free to email me or leave a comment or something. For now, the gallery is mostly Sphere and Tomatsu Haruka images, since those are what I spend most of my waking hours salivating over but Minorin, Kobayashi Yu and KitaEri albums are likely to come soon. Probably (gasp) Ono Daisuke too.

I actually have a seiyuudb project going on (planning phase), i was planning on having something like this actually. Maybe we could talk later about incorporating your images into my app :p (I have quite a couple of images in my hd’s too )
Sure, if you need any help drop me an e-mail
OMG! AWESOME!!
I LOVE YOU, j1m0ne!!!
Let me correct that:
OMG! AWESOME!!
I LOVE YOU,
j1m0neMINA-CHAN & HARU-CHAN!!!that’s OK, I love you back too
I found a bunch of nice Ryocchi pics on that second site you linked
That Haru-chan photo is cute *_*
Thanks for the uploads
Kinda saved me, wasn’t able find decent pictures recently…
What a treasury! Thanks for sharing!
Hope Hikasa Yoko gets included in this gallery someday XD
Hikasa will come sometime in the future, I don’t have that many pics of her actually.
Even still, THANK YOU!!! XD
Picture and links made of WIN. Time to make a proper Seiyuu folder
( +_+)
D’AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OMG HARU-CHAN *A*
At least you’re using your photobucket to organise, mine’s just full of random scans and stuff that’s all over the place Dx!
I reckon most people’s photobuckets are like that ^^;
Considering how…. well-endowed most of your posts are, I’m surprised that current collection
has no yuri-yuriis rather small.*Drools while waiting for
the yuri-yuri picsmoar updates*Aww, has Minorin made any kid photos of herself available?
err…not as far as I remember. I’m sure someone out there has her high school book photo though.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but here are some: http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/1197/288880.jpg

I wonder, how old is she on the photos.
Haruka-chan is so cute! She still has the same smile
Thanks for the links and uploads
Thanks for the gallery.
Wonder if I’ll look back to this collection and tell my future generation: back in those days, so-and-so *insert name* voiced *insert famous character* …
My seiyuu folders are fairly unorganized for the most part.
I only really have old pictures of Yukarin and possibly Hocchan anyway. Sorry, jimumama. ^^;
Is it OK if I grab some of them and post em over my shrine to worship: Xp
yeah sure, you can do whatever you like with them
*looks at Kana Ueda in a two-piece*
Can’t help blushing. Big thanks.
Regarding about people being jealous about their pic collections, most want to have those 15 minutes of fame.
They just want ppl to bow down at their feet and beg them for the pics cos it inflates their e-penor…
OBTW, as summer’s approaching fast here, Kana’s swimsuit pics are just right for the season…
Again, thanks.
Regarding the Haru-Chan kid photo: Apparently there are some pages of Childhood pictures in High Touch: http://pds17.egloos.com/pds/201002/27/66/a0013866_4b8891d31764b.jpg
Evolution of the 20,000 Faces!!!
Her tomato cheeks from childhood kinda disappeared around RH Plus period and resurfaced again.
Her eyebrows is very light (like Nagi-sama lol) in the picture with red dress in the lower right corner. Light eyebrows can also be seen in these clips

I am wondering whether those are her real eyebrows without make-ups (or is it just lighting)?
It’s rather lol how she’s doing the peace sign in virtually all of the pics. The bowling pin one is rather hilarious ^^;
I check the girlish beauty blog for the scans (and the occasional wallpapers, not as many of them nowadays). Some of these appear on seiup but not all.
Yup, definitely one of the best places for high res scans.
