Otakon '12: Aya Hirano solo live

Otakon '12: Aya Hirano solo live photo



One of the biggest draw at this year's Otakon down in Baltimore is Aya Hirano. The singer-personality-seiyuu talent showed off her renewed poise and mesmerized the masses this past weekend, and part of that is her very first solo live in America.

The set was only about an hour long but she got us when "God Knows" and "Lost My Music" played back to back, forming that magical 8-minute-stretch of time that transported us back to 2006, the year Aya Hirano made a name for herself as the lead actress for one of the biggest Japanese animation work in the past decade. And by that I mean the whole place erupted in a sea of cheerful con-goers, as cheerful as they can be on a Sunday afternoon. It's no easy feat.

The rest, well, is history, much like this concert. Besides from the four Haruhi tracks (Bouken Desho Desho? and Super Driver are the other two), the set is made up from various Hirano albums: Fragments, Riot Girl, and Speed Star. Those of you who were there, you can relive your memory through Hirano's tweet. For those of you who were not there, see if the gallery does anything to tame your envy.

A Daily Dose of Music: Aya Hirano

Voice actress extraordinaire and excellent singer, Aya Hirano is back with a hot new video! Her new single, Sunday is full of all the rock pop goodness you have come to know and love from this Japanator favorite. I am also loving her new look! What do you guys think of the new song?

Why can't Aya Hirano act in any more anime?

That's what I'd like to know, because her Twitter account has yet to release more detailed info. Her voice will still be heard in ongoing anime, however. She'll still be speaking in Maria Holic Alive (rejoice, Marcus!), Fairy...

Bakemonogatari gets Kizumonogatari anime prequel!

Bakemonogatari was a series that I loved and hated. As a fan of anime studio SHAFT, I loved their presentation, and the characters were delightful. As a person who values something happening...well, they pretty much just stoo...

Aya Hirano didn't like Endless Eight either

Watching the never-ending Endless Eight was hard for us, and it was hard for the voice of Haruhi, Aya Hirano, as well. She said she was really surprised when she found out that she would basically be doing the same act 8 time...

Failkini: Aya Hirano wears her bikini top backwards... for a calendar shoot

Oh, Aya. If we were still going out, I would have stopped you before you left the house. You know I would have. We were close like that. But you had to leave me. For that, you can be embarrassed in front of the Japanese publi...
