Apparently, Yasumoto-san has expressed his enthusiasm for the second installment in an interview, saying, “For the second project, we want to make something that women will like.”
Otaku no mayo” is a rare cross-industry collaboration, but eating is something common to everyone, regardless of occupation, and the combination of Hiroki Yasumoto’s popularity as a voice actor and Ryuji’s popularity has led to the expansion of both fans and their recognition of each other.
Mr. Yasumoto himself says, “I told staff that I couldn’t sell the product with only me, so I wanted to collaborate with Ryuji, that way, the conversation went well.”
I think this is one of the reasons why the product became such a hit that orders were temporarily halted.
This collaboration was the best of both worlds, and we believe that there may be more synergies to come from a voice actor with a deep knowledge and understanding of a certain field X an expert in that field (and an influencer)!
