The "dansei seiyu" music genre refers to songs and musical works performed by male voice actors in Japan. These artists are primarily known for their vocal roles in anime, video games, and other voice-over work, but they also cultivate music careers that showcase their vocal talents beyond character portrayal. The genre does not conform to a single musical style; instead, it is characterized by the personal styles of the voice actors, often exhibiting a blend of J-pop, rock, ballads, and sometimes crossing over into visual kei elements. Their music typically enjoys a built-in fanbase from their voice acting roles, and it often features emotive performances and lyrical content that resonates with the fantasy and storytelling themes present in their voice work. Singers like 岡本信彦 and Tetsuya Kakihara are notable examples, bringing their distinct personas to the music stage and offering fans an extension of their favorite characters' personalities through song.
