His pink-beige hair in Distant Goal.

High school club activities?
Though he joined the music/ band club (軽音楽部), he barely participated in it.
A happy moment since he became a seiyuu?
Tokyo Revengers got popular, and a lot of people he hadn't met in a long while got in contact with him again.
What quirk/ habit of women's does he like? (what gives the 'kyun' feeling)
When she adjusts her hair behind her ear as she's eating ramen/ soupy food.
What to keep in mind during recording sessions?
Trying to feel your chara's emotions is important, but pay attention to others' dialogue lines too.

Collab with various singers.
What does he do for daily motivation?
(I didn't really follow but seems to be on the lines of just thinking a lot)
Udon or soba?
Soba.
Difference between acting techniques for anime vs foreign film dubbing?
For anime you have to imagine how to portray the character on your own, as for film dubbing there's already an existing screen actor so the consideration is to fill in as the actor's voice.
Favourite manga?
Recently, it's The Fable (by Minami Katsuhisa).
Any quirks/ habits?
While deeply concentrated in gaming, he'd stick his tongue out (as demonstrated in the YT video), and he's worried about unconsciously doing it when doing game activities for work.

Many, but if he were to pick one, Shirai Yuusuke because he seems to be the most involved with YT activities.
'Dark' personal history?
In high school, he was a gyaruo who'd try to hit on girls.

(Some kind of whiskey I didn't catch, not commonly stocked in shops; from his earliest livestream, I think it's Kirin Fuji Single Grain Whiskey)
Embarrassing experience?
In the 2nd year of middle school, while in the library he gotta rip a silent fart. You can guess what happened :)

A lot of Super Famicom games during primary school, stuff like Captain Tsubasa.

He's not really into animals, but if he had to pick, cat.
Most laborious/ tiring moment?
