Chiko is played by Aya Hirano? I'm so dissapointed. Hirano is one of the most annoying seiyuus I've ever heard, she is popular only for the moe wave.

I can tell you, upon watching the first episode, that her performance is one of her most subdued yet. It's nothing like Haruhi, Konata, Misa, or any of her other performances that might have irritated you.

Wow. I knew she was cute and all, but she looks insanely hot on that webpage. Seems she had her mole removed, or Photoshopped out at least. Smile

Nah look closely at the album cover. You can see it under her left cheek.

But this is the type of music that Aya is really good at. I cannot wait to get this single.

I agree with one of the previously made comments. She's look really nice, and the song is also very good. Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

On the point regarding her voice acting, I can't say since I only watch dubbed anime (subtitles are a problem for me) but the pieces I've heard from her weren't irritating at all.

In essence I'm quite a fan of hers, mainly for the musical aspect but there's nothing that I've heard that irritated me, or anything of the sort as far as the voice work is concerned.

She did a fabulous job in this series.

And the song is the type of songs that Hirano Aya does best - catchy upbeat pop-rock songs in the style of God Knows from Haruhi. Please she's amazingly hot Very Happy

I need to order this single online to help bump her Oricon sales Very Happy
