My top favourites are:
Yuki Kaji
Kouki Uchiyama
Takahiro Sakurai
Kensho Ono
Hiro Shimono
Miyu Irino
Akira Ishida
Yuuki Ono
Kenichi Suzumura

but don’t get me wrong; I absolutely love seiyuu and I love watching seiyuu events/radios. Some other seiyuu that I like a lot because they’re funny/have an entertaining personality are Natsuki Hanae (pls check out his youtube channel - he has some hilarious uno videos with Onoken and Eguchi Takuya), Nobuhiko Okamoto, Ayumu Murase, Daiki Yamashita and Kappei Yamaguchi. There are a bunch more but, you know, I’m not about to list every known seiyuu that I like, no matter how much I like them LOL

Oh yes, and for the ladies: Sachi Kokuryu, Mariya Ise, Megumi Ogata, Minami Takayama, Sakura Tange and Megumi Han.

I have many and (at risk of self-promotion, if you can call it that) can check the complete list here.
Now, if you want me to make a top or something, at the moment, it would be something like this:

Top 5 male seiyuus

1. Junichi Suwabe: Liked him while watching Bleach, but I fell in love with his voice when I heard his acting in Fate/stay night. A man with an epic voice that can sound badass, sexy, pleasant and even hilarious depending on his roles. Still my favorite male Japanese voice actor to date.
Some roles of him I like: Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez (Bleach), Archer (Fate/stay night), Yami Sukehiro (Black Clover)

2. Hiroshi Kamiya: Probably the most hilarious voice actor I had the pleasure to heard, his acting never fails to crack me up. Very easy to recognize. Also awesome to play insane characters.
Some roles of him I like: Shinji Matou (Fate/stay night), Koyomi Araragi (Monogatari Series), Kiyoshi Fujino (Prison School)

3. Jouji Nakata: Most badass voice ever and one of the most recognizable voice actors to ever live. Especially good while acting for evil characters, but I always love to hear him in whatever role they assign to him. Surprisingly good for comedies too.
Some roles of him I like: Kirei Kotomine (Fate/stay night), Alucard (Hellsing), Shigaraki (Gugure! Kokkuri-san)

4. Toshiyuki Morikawa: Love him for how classy and badass he sounds in most of his roles. Just like Nakata, very good while playing villains, but also very funny in comedic roles.
Some roles of him I like: Tyki Mikk (D.Gray-man), Yoshikage Kira (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure), Bondrewd (Made in Abyss)

5. Katsuyuki Konishi: This man is one of the examples of how quick one can go from sounding badass and imposing to absolutely hilarious. Along with Kamiya, one of my favorite voice actors in what refers to comedies. Knows well to play villains despite having lots of heroic roles.
Some roles of him I like: Kenji Kazama (D-Frag!), Gakuto (Prison School), Diavolo (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure)

Top 5 female seiyuus

1. Nana Mizuki: Favorite female Japanese voice actress. Not only does she have a pretty incredible range (being able to voice little girls and adult women alike) and a beautiful voice, but she’s also an excellent singer.
Some roles of her I like: Pandora (Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas), Najimi Ajimu (Medaka Box), Moka Akashiya (Rosario + Vampire)

2. Rina Satou: Just like Nana Mizuki, very wide range, from cutesy to very deep and imposing contralto. Perfect for voicing tomboys, mature women or caring onee-sans. She was one of my first favorite seiyuus too.
Some roles of her I like: Punie Tanaka (Dai Mahou Touge), Kaoru Tanamachi (Amagami SS), Velvet Crowe (Tales of Berseria)

3. Shizuka Itou: One of the sexiest voices of the industry. She’s also very pleasant to hear when she uses a higher pitch (like with teenagers or young girls). Another of my first favorites.
Some roles of her I like: Lenalee Lee (D.Gray-man), Kaori Kanzaki (Toaru Majutsu no Index), Takao (D-Frag!)

4. Marina Inoue: I love how deep and sultry her voice can get, yet how cute and silly she can sound in other instances. Love her when she gives voice to mentally scarred characters.
Some roles of her I like: Sodachi Oikura (Monogatari Series), Kyouko Kouda (3-gatsu no Lion), Kana Minami (Minami-ke)

5. Yukari Tamura: I really dig her sassy, high-pitched voice and is probably one of my favorite loli voices. Funny thing is that I didn’t liked her voice much at first, but watching more and more series with her ended making me loving her voice a lot.
Some roles of her I like: Suzuha Amane (Steins;Gate), Togame (Katanagatari), Yamada (B-gata H-Kei)

This may change from time to time, but so far, things would be something like this.

I love seiyuu, mainly because I love seeing the behind the scenes of things (hence the reason I'm studying chemistry) and the VA industry is so interesting lol

It's why I feel so conflicting right now regarding the seiyuu Okamoto Nobuhiku (Bakugo, Usui, Nishinoya) because although I love his voice and he's a funny guy, he's recently been involved in a (potential) cheating scandal towards his wife, another seiyuu Oogame Asuka

I really love the seiyuus who voiced gintama cast. It seems like they were having fun while voicing the characters. Especially sugita tomokazu and akira ishida really bought their characters to the life.

Other than that, tomoyo kurosawa and chika anzai totally nailed it while voicing kumiko and reina from hibike! euphonium.

Norio Wakamoto - No explanation necessary.

Takehito Koyasu - Can voice practically any role. Him voicing comedic characters are the best, especially characters like Ryo Kuroyanagi (Yakitate!! Japan) and Adam Blade (Needless).

Nana Mizuki - Excellent vocal range that can be easily recognized despite changing pitch between older and younger characters. Has a tendency to be placed in roles where her character suffers or cries, and she does a great job portraying that making her a great drama voice actress.

Mamiko Noto - Very distinguishable voice that can bring the life out of a character. Very well suited for shy and timid characters, and her voice becomes super sexy when she does an angry tone. She is unequaled when it comes to voicing a drunk female character. Her performance in Net-juu no Susume is easily one of her best. The tone of her voice does limit who she can voice though as I believe her role in Freezing was miscast and could have picked someone more suitable for it.

Yoko Hikasa - She is in like every anime made post 2010, and her voice is very expressive depending on the character.

Kikuko Inoue - The Goddess of voice actresses. While she mostly does support roles, her voice is easily recognizable. In her softer tones, her voice can melt the hearts of those who hear her, but in her more serious tones, she can strike fear in the hearts of her listeners. She is not as active now considering her age, but it's well worth checking out the anime where she lends her voice. I do hope that her daughter, Honoka Inoue, can succeed her.

Mariko Honda and it is entirely because of Nichijou, where she played Yuuko. I've never seen an actor put on so many crazy voices in quick succession and have them all be funny as hell. Runner up would be Tomoyo Kurosawa.

By the way, sometimes I feel like the I'm the one man on the planet who doesn't like Mamoru Miyano when, by the same logic, I should love him too.

Hayami, Saori

Sakurai, Takahiro

Kaji, Yuki

Kamiya, Hiroshi (The fact that he is the seiyuu of a lot of favoured characters and yet is also the seiyuu of one of the most hated characters, if not the most hated character, of the Fate franchise is kind of funny)

Naganawa, Maria (within my favourite sorta-fresh seiyuu squad)

I like Miyano Mamoru like everybody else does

Also Kino Hina, shes a new but very distinct voice actor who is just hilarious and fun to listen to.

But I just want everyone to appreciate Saori Hayami, listen to her acting please, she has such a beautiful rich voice, she is an amazing actress that actually makes the character sound like a real person, which is rare in anime. She is extremely talented and incredible at her art. Listen:

I love seiyuu, way too many to name. Mind if I just touch on the Pokemon seiyuu? They are all in my top 5 anyway.

Hayshibara Megumi and Miki Shin'ichirou I loved from their roles in other shows (especially Slayers and Virtua Fighter respectively) before I found out they were Musashi and Kojiro (Jessie and James) and just had to see the original.

Matsumoto Rica is kind of my celebrity crush. She's obviously the best Satoshi (Ash), and was also great as the second Bakura in Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Monsters. I've heard her in a few other roles. They aren't as memorable, though she's always awesome. Also love her singing.

I'm mostly a dub watcher, but there are still some of seiyuus I like.

The seiyuu that I'm mostly familiar with is Yui Horie. I just love her cutesy voice and also her songs are great. Her best role is probably Hanyuu from Higurashi.

There are also girls like Kana Hanazawa (pretty overrated imo, but still packs a punch), Marina Inoue, Rie Takahashi and Sora Amamiya.

I'm less familiar with male seiyuus, but some of the ones I like include Hiroshi Kamiya, Kouki Uchiyama, Kaito Ishikawa, Daisuke Ono and Jun Fukuyama.

Finally, of course, there's my two favorite seiyuus, Hiro Shimono and Saori Hayami. Shimono has this very cute, high pitched voice that I kinda like; whereas Hayami's voice is somewhat deep yet also soft and sweet sounding. Even though I haven't really heard them that much, their voices really stand out.
EDIT: Also, @Seijatachiiii, thanks for that clip of Hayami-sama.

I also want to add in some unpopular opinions that I would like to say here since I dunno where to say this but anways....

While I don't really care about the whole loving seiyuu culture, I do appreciate Tomokazu Sugita. He has his own style of voicing his characters and it's hard to imagine them without his voice, compared to all the squeaky VAs that are completely interchangeable

Hard to say favorite. But here's a few that come to mind in no particular order:

Iguchi Yuka
Gorgeous voice and great as Tsukihi (Monogatari) and Miku (Symphogear) but her lead role as Myne from Bookworm made me fall in love.

Takahashi Rie
Takagi / Megumin <3

Kohara Konomi
Not so much her characters as her two(!) award-winning radio shows.

Koga Aoi
Kaguya-sama <3

Hanazawa Kana
Yeah she got that amazingly soft, perfect moe voice, but have you heard her work on Happy Sugar Life!? She has real hidden range.

i don't really understand that scandal. did he really cheat or not?
they don't confirm it but the way he apologize can seems like he has affair or can be like apologize to fans that he keep secret married.

i don't really understand that scandal. did he really cheat or not?
they don't confirm it but the way he apologize can seems like he has affair or can be like apologize to fans that he keep secret married.

It’s pretty confusing cause arguments can be made on both sides. The source that saw him was the same source that found out Ono Kensho and Hana Kanazawa were/are still(?) dating, so they have some infamy with finding this stuff.

He was also seen exiting a love hotel with an unknown woman but they were both also seen holding a shit ton of sweets when they left (the love hotel's entrance was directly connected to a bar and a sweet parlour) which doesn’t really seem like the thing you’d do if you’re having an affair with your masseuse

But, in his apology he vaguely acknowledged the love hotel rumours and that he was sorry he let everyone and his wife down (and that he wants to be a better person). He acknowledged the truth in those rumours, but his wording was so vague it’s hard to tell what exactly he was referring to lol (could’ve been just admitting to being out with another woman without the cheating)

Given what’s happened to others recently like James Charles and Johnny Depp, I don’t want to jump too much to conclusions though
