Looking for an Anime Voice Actor Game? Here’s How It Works
If you have ever searched for a game about anime voice actors — something that connects anime through the seiyuu they share, or an anime version of "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" — this is it. AnimeToAnime is a free browser game built entirely around Japanese voice actors, and this page explains what it is and how to start.
What kind of game is it?
AnimeToAnime is an anime voice-actor chain game. You begin on one anime and reach another by finding a Japanese voice actor (a seiyuu) that both casts share. Pick that actor, jump to any other anime they appeared in, and keep the chain going. It is part trivia, part puzzle, and part strategy — and it works because the same prolific seiyuu turn up across hundreds of shows, so almost any two anime can be linked in just a few steps.
What people are usually looking for
- "A game to connect anime by voice actors" — the core mode. Chain as many anime as you can in Endless mode.
- "A seiyuu game" — every connection is judged on the original Japanese cast, so it rewards knowing your voice actors.
- "Six degrees of separation for anime" — the exact idea the game is built on, applied to anime instead of Hollywood.
- "A free anime browser game" — no download, no account needed to play solo or the daily puzzles.
How to play in one minute
- Start on the given anime and pick a Japanese voice actor from its cast.
- Any other anime that actor has appeared in becomes your next step.
- Only the original Japanese cast counts — English dub actors do not create connections.
- Each anime can be used once per chain. See the How to Play page for the full rules.
Ways to play
- Endless Mode — a solo race to build the longest chain before time runs out.
- Casual & Ranked 1v1 — real-time turn-based matches with powerups and an ELO rating.
- Daily Puzzles — Daily Chain, Anime Bingo, and Anime Connections, refreshed every day.
Why voice actors make it work
Japan's voice-acting industry runs on an apprenticeship system that produces performers with hundreds of credits each. Because those same seiyuu reappear across wildly different series, the connections are dense enough to turn "link these two anime" into a genuinely fun puzzle. If the concept is new to you, start with What Is a Seiyuu? and how anime are secretly connected.
