Chihaya Anon's Soul Voice: An In-depth Look at Voice Actress Rin Tateishi, the Miracle Journey from Rookie to MyGO!!!!! Guitarist

In the anime 'BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!!', Chihaya Anon, with her cheerful, sociable nature combined with a bit of cleverness and clumsiness, became the indispensable 'mood maker' and adhesive of the band. Her voice, full of energy and细腻情感, perfectly portrays this girl who 'wants to be popular' yet deeply cherishes her companions. The one who gave Anon her soul is the new-generation voice actress—Rin Tateishi. This article will take you deep into understanding this voice actress who grew alongside her character, exploring how she一步步 transformed from a新人 into a shining guitarist on stage.

Who is Rin Tateishi? A New Star Rising in Sync with MyGO!!!!!

Rin Tateishi (たていし りん, Tateishi Rin) is a young voice actress affiliated with the agency '響 (HiBiKi),' born on July 10, 2001, in Osaka Prefecture. For many viewers, Rin Tateishi's name is tightly bound with Chihaya Anon, as Chihaya Anon from 'BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!!' is her representative work and the first major role in her voice acting career.

After joining the agency through a joint audition in 2021, Rin Tateishi began her voice acting career. Besides voice acting, she also worked as a live announcer for the women's professional wrestling group 'STARDOM,' showcasing her diverse talents. However, what truly made her shine was the MyGO!!!!! project, which officially debuted in 2023. As a rookie voice actress, she not only had to voice the character but also face the biggest challenge of the 'BanG Dream!' project—becoming a real band member.

The Real-Life Guitarist: Perfect Synchronization Between Voice Actress and Character

The most unique charm of the 'BanG Dream!' project lies in the voice actresses forming real bands and performing live. In reality, Rin Tateishi, much like the character Chihaya Anon she portrays, serves as the guitarist for MyGO!!!!!. Interestingly, although Rin Tateishi had experience playing acoustic guitar in high school, she only truly started learning electric guitar after confirming her participation in MyGO!!!!!.

This experience interestingly overlaps with the background of the character Anon. Although Anon in the anime had formed a band in middle school, her guitar skills were still immature, and she decided to pick up the guitar again to fit into her new environment. Similarly, Rin Tateishi invested a great deal of time practicing electric guitar to qualify for this role. Now, her confident and stable guitar playing on stage, along with her默契配合 with the other guitarist Aoki Haruna (who plays Raana Asahi), allows the audience to see the轨迹 of her growth同步 with the character.

Interpreting the Extraordinary in the 'Ordinary': The Charm of Rin Tateishi's Voice

Chihaya Anon is a character with rich layers. On the surface, she is a 'bright character' (sunny and cheerful person) who pursues fashion and craves the spotlight, but inside, she feels inferior and insecure due to her failed study abroad experience. Rin Tateishi's voice acting accurately captures this complexity.

Her vocal range can express both Anon's liveliness and lightness when interacting with people, as well as reveal the character's inner vulnerability and wavering at critical moments. In interviews, Rin Tateishi mentioned that when dubbing the scene in episode 5 where Anon is accused by Rikki of 'always running away,' she deeply empathized and felt pain because she understood Anon's struggle of wanting to admit yet not wanting to admit her weaknesses. It is precisely this profound understanding of the character that makes her performance feel authentic, making Anon, despite being calculating, impossible to dislike and instead incredibly relatable.

Conclusion: Lost Stars Growing Together

From a complete novice to a band member who can now perform confidently on stages of thousands, Rin Tateishi's journey itself is an inspiring story of 'moving forward despite being lost.' She not only gave Chihaya Anon a lively voice but also embodied the character's growth in reality through her own sweat and effort. Rin Tateishi and Chihaya Anon, voice actress and character, achieved perfect resonance in the MyGO!!!!! project, growing together from lost children into shining stars illuminating each other's paths.
