CATDOLL: Hot discussion among Japanese otakus: Rie Kugimiya's transformation from "Kugimiya cute to Kugimiya hater"

Recently, a otaku compared the dubbing "transformation" of the famous Japanese animation voice actor Rie Kugimiya, to see how Kugimiya changed from "Kugimiya cute" to "Kugimiya hater"!

Rie Kugimiya is best known in China for her roles as the "Kigimiya Four Cute", including Shana from Shakugan no Shana, Louise from Zero no Tsukaima, Nagi Michiin from Hayate the Combat Butler!, and Toradora!. Her early works were all known for their tsundere and cute selling points. In order to highlight the characteristics of her voice acting, the term "Kigimiya disease" was even created.

Recently, some netizens have discovered that the types of roles played by Rie Kugimiya have become more diverse, but most of them seem to be villains, and they are full of gloomy atmosphere. They also made a comparison chart of the two roles in the past year.

Japanese otakus hotly discussed: "If the characters of Before and After were to have a full-scale confrontation, it feels like the character of Before would be completely solved in five seconds." "The Before group has the halo of the heroine to make up for it, so it's not certain who will solve whom!" "I think Kugimiya's acting was better before, but she always played tsundere roles during that period, which was a waste of her acting skills." "In fact, I prefer Kugimiya's non-tsundere roles, especially the male voices she voiced." "Kugimiya created the era of tsundere with her acting skills. Now tsundere has become completely stereotyped, so she can give way to newcomers. She can now play more different types of roles, and I look forward to her future activities."
