Ugh, somebody just make her go away. I'm tired of every week there being some kind of stupid ass drama she is attached to. Aya Hirano has been cruising off her popularity as Konata/Haruhi for far too long.

I want to know too. She's not a bad VA at all.

People dislike her because of her personal dramas, which are none of our bussiness.

I hope to see her participate in more projects this year, tbh.

She makes her personal problems quite public through twitter(as she did with this very article), so obviously she wants it to be our(the fans) business.

People dislike her because shes stupid and arrogant. Like this instance where she is basically blaming her management for no longer VAing new shows. Shes an adult, she could easily leave her management company and join another(particularly one for seiyuu), but she hasn't. She either likes her new situation on variety shows or she is just too dumb to make decisions for herself, either way its not very laudable.

Or her contract is made so it's a lot easier for her to whine than change it.

Also, I see no reason why dumb or stupid people can't be VA's, as long as they do their job. And she does not bother me at all even if she did at least ok job on her shows.

Hmm, pretty much spoiled character voice. Not really bad. I don't judge seiyuu because of their personal life. Judge their performance.
There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list

Aya should do some very unladylike and violent things to her manager, seriously he needs to get what he deserves. Although she's an average Seiyuu overall, she still deserves some spotlight every so often.

You say perspective, I say pity. What it boils down to me is that she isn't being forced to do anything, but she's trying to make the argument. If the contract is that bad, bite the fees and move on. If the contract is too hard for her to get out of, again that's her fault for signing herself into servitude.

err ok you got a point there, but is it common and normal in showbiz for popular artist to be always problematic and make it public? another best example is britney spears lol

Well isn't this supposed to be good news? This way they could give more spotlight to underappreciated VAs. I like her as Reira & Konata, and she already had too much attention from being Haruhi so yeah... :/

Rakuten Woman reported that the new manager of Hirano is trying to convert her from an idol seiyu to a multi-media "Talent" personality.

I think everyone answered why....

Everyone makes a huge deal over anything she does, she's nothing but drama over stupid shit that shouldn't even be news.

But God forbid Aya left anime.....can you imagine if she's gone, anime will disappear, Otaku might actually get a job, and Japan will be doomed....

She's HORRIBLY overrated, the less I hear about her the better....

When there's more Haruhi anime, or if there's ever more anime of Lucky Star, will she resume her roles as Haruhi and Konata? I don't know if new seasons of old roles she's had would count as taking on new voice work or not =/

Loved her as Reira, but other than that she's not exactly my favourite voice actor so I don't care much. It's probably good for her to move onto things other than the seiyuu business. Some of those Japanese fans are scary.

I don't care too much about her personal life, but I do like some of her songs as well as her voice acting.

Going by what I've read, apparently she puts all her personal problems out for the public willingly, and that I don't really agree with.

They wouldn't make Haruhi or Lucky Star without her. In Japan, a seiyuu is everything. You don't have the seiyuu of a major character, then people won't buy it.

Too bad she's being restricted from doing VA work but I'm looking forward to when she'll be back and I'll surely enjoy her roles in the new season, too.
