According to Natalie News, management agency Spacecraft Entertainment admitted that seiyu Hirano Aya will quit the office and her official fan club "Hirano Juku" will be closed on August 20th. Web magazine Cyzo reported that there has been a discord between Hirano and the agency and she was trying to find a new management office. She apologized to the office by prostrating herself on the floor when the plan of the transfer was exposed to the staff. Hirano stopped posting tweets on her twitter since photos of Hirano kissing man on a bed were leaked on a gossip magazine last month.

Update
Hirano posted in her official blog that she had been negotiating with Spacecraft agency over the termination of the contract with them since last year. She said her new management office has already been decided.

Update August 21st
Hirano has launched a new official website and announced that she entered a new agency "Grick", which mainly does the management of TV personalities and idols. No seiyu other than Hirano belongs to the office.

She already quit the anime industry long before this so they should've been planning a replacement voice already.

Wait does that mean that she might sign on with another agency and get a second chance? Everyone deserves a second chance; no matter who they are. Yes, even you; flamers and haters.
For me, I pray that she is given a second chance at whatever she wants to do. Everyone deserves them, but not everyone gets them. Her talent can take her far no matter what past actions have mired her.

Not that Haruhi S3 was likely to be made, but I'm not even interested in it anymore (for me she basically IS Haruhi). Well, I guess I'm going to start reading the LNs now.

I can't imagine what will happen to anime like Haruhi. I don't think anyone can just replace her.

I agree with the one saying, "I don't really care what she do in her life as long as she voices Haruhi"

They don't need Haruhi to make money anymore. They're not even done milking the K-ON cash cow dry. Besides, they're practically unrivaled in selecting upcoming voice talent. Almost all the voice actresses who had their first big roles with KyoAni went on to be successful.

The same thing can happen with American VAs they can quit to and move on to something else just as easily.

I hated her role as Misa (Death Note) and Kurumi (Kimi ni Todoke). Both characters deserved to be hated, making her a successful seiyuu for those roles in the process.

Konata and Haruhi are two Kyoani characters adored by a huge section of anime fans all over the world and I am sure the characters became popular for her ever energetic roles in those two anime.

Beside Lucy (Fairy Tail), Kana (Nurarihyon S2) wasn't she supposed to give her voice in Kizumonogatari to as Shinobu?

I am not a fan of her but why do we have to dig into her personal life? did she do any bad to anime industry? i don't think so. then why all the hate?

I want to say that in America her scandals wouldn't have ruined her career.

I hope that she at least continues voicing the characters she already has in sequels and what not.

All this hate over something so simple. Why cant she live her life the way she wants. If she wants to quit she can. Also so what that some pictures was leaked about her kissing a man people do that everyday and they don't get hated for it by some people on a forum. My opinion I like her voice.

People will forget her in an instant and any chance of a comeback will be ruined, as soon as they find another cutesy, "virgin" VA to voice tsundere characters in mainstream anime.

Then again, Sankaku Complex will probably be after her for a long time still.

Good riddance, I guess. Some of their decisions in this past year have been pretty retarded and I believe agencies in Japan have far more power over their talent than in other countries.

Hopefully she'll do more voice work now.

As a fan of her voicing Suzumiya Haruhi, I think this is great news. IMO Lucy Heartfilia has also has huge shoes to fill.

Oh, haters gonna hate.

As bad as her decisions are, she'll still be my favorite seiyuu.

I'd rather there be no more Haruhi if there were plans to have a replacement seiyuu.
No matter how good the replacement would be, it just wouldn't be the same.

I don't really hate or like her, but she have done many great roles so far and she's quite talent so it'll be a loss if she really quite voice acting

BTW why she's hated so much here?
