Shoko Nakagawa Speaks: Pi Pi-chuu Chuu!

Mm, delicious adorable Shoko-tan!

If you're on this site, odds are pretty good that you have a fondness for Pokemon and/or otaku queen/Jpop idol/seiyuu/camgirl/blogger/mangaka-turned-animeka Shoko “Shoko-tan” Nakagawa. (Okay, I'm sure some of you don't care for either, but I'm thinking most of you do.)


It was announced a while back that Shoko-tan would be voicing Pichuu in the upcoming Pokemon: Arceus ni Semaru E film, a fact of which I was recently reminded. Shoko-tan has a short movie up on the flick's site, and while you may not care about the Japanese words she speaks (she basically introduces herself, says she's in the movie playing a female Pichuu with a weird ear who becomes friends with Pikachu), but her little Pichuu sounds are freakin' adorable.


Perfect for a giggle on a snowy Monday morning. (Man, why does it always snow when I come back home these days? Yeesh.)
