As most know, Rie Kugimiya is a famous VA that has voiced many of the famous tsunderes. Examples are Shana, Taiga, Yuuhi, Nagi, and Louise. I've seen some people in this club say that they hate her voice and others claim she just voices bad characters, but her voice is great. Do you like her?

I personally like her voice but hate some of the characters she voices. I loved her as Alphonse, Kagura, and Hotaru.Her singing isn't bad either.

tsundere roles notwithstanding, she is a decent voice actress. i just hate how they overuse her for tsundere roles, especially if it's coming from studio JC staff. this could be me thinking this, but i think they're doing this as blatant pandering or some sort of fanservice.

I'm with Lordcrab on this one, although I haven't heard her much in her Tsundere roles but she's done way too much from what I can tell.

She's done different roles like Alphonse from FMA and Mizore in Rosario + Vampire, so why not something different for her?

I find her voice naturally irritating, so when she voices those damn loli tsundere it just makes it THAT much worse to listen to...

She did really great as Kagura from Gintama though! I'll give her that.

Now that I think about it her voice is a little irritating... but I never noticed it while watching the anime so no I don't dislike her

I don't really like her, her voice starts to be a little bit annoying. Probably because of all the tsundere-characters she voiced.
But I really liked her as Al in FMA. I also like the way she portays emotions.

Alphonse is THE BEST CHARACTER. That her voiced.

I f*cking HATE her voice.

Thanks to her tsundere voices i couldnt fully enjoy Persona 4's Rise Kujikawa after i came to realisation ive already heard that voice before, and this honest and energetic character has to suffer from the infamy of Kugimiya.

I hate tsundere-characters she voiced, but her voice is okay for me. Like her as Shannon and Shirayuki Mizore.

I used to not notice her voice, but when I watched a few tsundere series she did and saw how annoying and irritating it was I noticed the irritating tone of her voice all the time, thus ruining a lot of anime for me D:

I hate her because of the tsunderes mainly, but I guess I can't blame that on her 100%, she is given tsundere roles because she is known for tsundere roles. Her voice can be ok, I'll give her that but it's annoying a lot of the time.

I especially hate the tsundere voiced by her.
and I hate her favourite line: "You're a dog/slave/insect"

I adore her role as Happy. Some people hate Happy's voice, but that's part of what makes him so goddamn hilarious to me. But yeah, not a fan of her tsundere loli roles.
