●Drama CD and original song featuring female voice actors' boy voices

I believe that the voices of female voice actors playing boys are filled with many unique charms.
However, in recent years, due to the increase in the number of male voice actors with high key voices and their improved skills, I feel that male voice actors are now playing male characters in their early teens at a higher rate than ever before. Of course, male voice actors' boy voices are also very wonderful. I do not intend to deny that at all. Both have their own charm.
The boy characters of the main characters in the anime I watched as a child were often played by female voice actors, so I still have a deep feeling in my heart that "the boy I admire who grows up through friendly competition = the voice of a female voice actor".
The longing and romance I had for the main characters when I was watching anime may be the reason why I find the boy voices of female voice actors more appealing.

In the case of anime broadcasted in the evening slot to promote hobby products, female voice actors are often used to play boys, but in the case of general works, they are often in charge of the childhood of young characters, and I feel that their voices are a little insufficient for me to fully enjoy them.
I just hope that the genre that I personally love, "boy voices by female voice actors," will be more enriched, and that it will not decrease because the importance is properly there! I continue to create this work with this wish in mind.
　I want to fully enjoy the boys' voices of female voice actors as they compete with their friends in friendly rivalry and grow together overcoming obstacles! I want them to sing cool songs in boys' voices that male characters might sing! With this in mind, we have taken on the challenge of creating an unlikely motif of "boy idols.
We often hear people say, "I heard it was a female voice actor with a boy's voice, but it looks too shiny. The story is about boys overcoming various problems and growing up, even though the story is based on an idol. The live performance scenes are hardly depicted in the film. The story is about the boys and their growth through their various problems! If you are a fan of female voice actors' boy voices, you should really listen to this story! I really want you to listen to it! I really want you to listen to it and talk about it with your friends.

I really want you to listen to it and talk about it.
　I didn't know there were up to 5. You might think that I can't catch up... but "Aishota idol show time 5" is the second installment of the idol unit Lùcifer. If you are interested in the show, you can listen to it from the previous episode (4) and you will understand the contents even if you listen to it from this episode. We hope you will give it a listen.

About the guest voice actors

　In addition to the main cast, many other voice actors participate in each episode to enhance the story. Among the guests this time are Chouzu Kiritani and Tomokazu Sugita. Choucho-san is a great friend who I often play with at Real Dasshutsu Game, and we were both at the Comic Market where we distributed Aishota 1 on the same day, so we both got our copies of the game at the market.
Also, you have known Aishota for a long time, and I had hoped that you would play a role in the show someday, and now my wish has come true. Please look forward to seeing how he will appear and what kind of role he will play.

What is the doujinshi circle "Sakuraenke"?
idol show time is a drama CD produced by Yuka Maruyama, a voice actress.
It is often mistaken for a commercial work, but idol show time is a completely personal production.
