Aya Hirano's 12th single sells only 1,471 units in its first week--- "This is my current self"

1：れいおφ ★ 2013/10/18(金) 20:52:32.13 ID:???0

Aya Hirano (26), who once stood on top of the idol seiyuu (voice actor) world, released her 12th single titled "Promise" on the 9th.

After learning of the sales results -- 36th in the Oricon weekly ranking and only 1,471 copies sold -- she wrote on her blog that "This is my current self".

Hirano made her debut as a child actress, and made her huge break as a voice actress with Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu, which got her top honors at the Seiyuu Awards in 2008, both as a voice actress and as a singer. She reigned over the seiyuu world, and even extended her activities outside of animation and into serial dramas and variety shows.

Hirano has always had a "pure idol" image attached to her, but she suddenly revealed her love life on Fuji TV's Gout Temps Nouveau in 2010. The following year, her "Nyan-nyan" pictures with who was thought to be a member of her backing band got leaked.

Due to these series of events, her public image came crashing down, which drastically decreased the number of her fans. Her CDs which used to sell over 20,000 copies in its first week have taken a hit thanks to her scandal.

Aya herself is accepting these consequences. Despite hearing news of these sales, she wrote on her blog: "There are people who comment on the ranking and the number of sales, but I personally think that this is still something amazing. This is my current self. I'm not bitter about it, but I just hope that my feeling of gratitude has reached the people who have bought it and listened to it".

According to a seiyuu magazine writer: "Hirano-san declared that she'll be switching over to becoming an actress, but all the projects that she's been getting are voice acting roles. Her past image of being this idol-seiyuu is still pulling on her tail. But she's been in stage plays recently, most notably in Les Miserables and has also gotten hold of musical fans. She always said that she wanted to do musicals, so she might actually be content with her current self".

The damage that an idol-seiyuu receives once she is hit by a romance scandal is much more colossal than what sort of damage AKB48 would receive. Will Hirano still be able to gain more fans who are not otakus?

@Hysteric_Barbie
やっと綾さんが私の忠告を受け入れてブログに集中してくれるようになって嬉しいです。
ツイッターでアンチの相手をする必要はありません。ブログでファンと交流してください。
2月24日

I'm glad that Aya-san finally heeded my warning and she's now concentrating on her blog. There's no need for you to fight back against your haters on Twitter. Just communicate with your fans on your blog.

@Hysteric_Barbie
綾さんまたアンチを見つけました。
isikawasunsuKをブロックして下さい。明らかにアンチです。
2月24日

Aya-san, I found another hater. Please block isikawasunsuK. He's definitely a hater.
Feb 24

@Hysteric_Barbie
綾さんツイッターはもう駄目だと思います。
新しいアンチが次から次へと出てきてきりがありません。
2月24日

Aya-san, I think Twitter's no good anymore. New haters just come out one after another, there's no end to them.
Feb 24

@Hysteric_Barbie
綾さんの本スレで名前が出てるAir_PresidentとAryaArcbalとBD_1speedの三人をブロックして下さい。この三人はファンのふりしたアンチです。今から説明します。
2月28日

These people Air_President, AryaArcbal and BD_1speed who are in your main thread, please block them. They'r haters disguised as fans. I'll explain it to you now.
Feb 28

@Hysteric_Barbie
綾さん注意して下さい。今後は事件の防止のために警備を厳重にして下さい。
ミュージカルの会場には警官を配備した方がいいと思います。
6月1日

Aya-san, please be careful. Please tighten your security to prevent any incidents. I think it will be better to station police guards around the venue of your musical.

@Hysteric_Barbie
この前綾さんがツイートしたＴＢＳの作為的な編集について抗議電話をしました。
「担当部署に必ず伝える」と約束してくれました。またテレビ局に変な編集されたらツイッターで報告してください。
6月4日

I called TBS and complained concerning your tweet that the way they edited your video felt fabricated. They promised me that they'll definitely make sure the department who made that will know about this. Please tell us again if TV stations make evil edits about you.
June 4

@Hysteric_Barbie
テレビ出演のことはどんどんツイートしてください。
特にこの前のＴＢＳみたいに作為的な編集されたら必ずツイートして下さい。必ずテレビ局に抗議電話しますので。
6月15日

Please keep tweeting about your TV appearances. Especially like the past case about TBS. I'll definitely call the TV station and complain.

最初はそっくりさんかと思ったけどホクロの位置も目玉の向きも歯並びも全部綾さんと一致しました。もう応援できません。今すごく不愉快な気分でトイレで何回も吐きました。すごく不愉快です。
3時間前

At first I thought it was just a look-alike, but the mole position, the teeth and the eyeballs are all exactly like Aya-san's. I cannot root for you anymore. I truly feel unpleasant right now, and I've already puked a number of times in the toilet. This is really sickening.

@Hysteric_Barbie
ずっと吐き気が止まらない。こんな醜い生き物に騙され続けてきた自分の愚かさが許せない。

I really feel sick. I cannot forgive my stupidness for being deceived by such an ugly living creature as you.

これ誰かパロディとして演劇作品に取り入れないかな？
Can someone make a parody of this and include it in a theatrical play?

まあ元ファンの俺から言わせるとファンをないがしろにしすぎた感はあったな

Well, as a former fan, I can say that she did seem to neglect her fans a bit too much back then

グータンみたことなかったけど

ほんと誰得な番組だったんだな

I never saw Gout Temps, but it really was a a show that no one benefited from

一時期、やたら擁護され過ぎて気持ち悪かったが、最近は逆に叩かれ過ぎてるな

同じ奴だろw

It was so gross how much she was protected at one point and now she's being bashed so much.
Must be the same guy, huh w

最近はむしろ声優としていい仕事してると思う

他の活動はまったく知らんが

I actually think she's doing a good job as a voice actress these days.
I don't know about her other activities, though.

170：名無しさん＠恐縮です 2013/10/18(金) 22:01:34.41 ID:hE8+qCCl0

正直可愛いし歌も上手いし声優も完璧だしほんと素晴らしいとは思うんだが、スキャンダルはダメだね致命的。

ビ●チのイメージがついてしまった。

Honestly, she's cute, she's a good singer, she's a perfect seiyuu, and she's really wonderful, but the scandal was truly fatal for her.
Because of that, people regard her as a bi+ch.

もう終わったよな・・・・・いつ事務所からクビ切られるかでしょうな

She's totally washed up..... it might only be a matter of time until her agency fires her.

212：名無しさん＠恐縮です 2013/10/18(金) 22:15:44.83 ID:k9OV5oiI0

ライフさんがまだ1000人以上居るなんて

凄いじゃん

But she still has over 1,000 lifeliners*, right?
That's amazing.
* seiyuu fans

未だに生き残ってる猛者がたった1枚しか買わないとかありえないだろ

上級ライフライナー14匹×100枚で1400枚と考えるのが妥当

残りは平野本人とその親戚
I don't believe that her remaining core fans will only buy 1 copy each.
It might be more appropriate to think that there are 14 expert lifeliners x 100 copies=1,400 sold.
The rest was bought by Hirano herself and her relatives.

特別ファンってわけじゃないけど、天然装ってキャラ作ってた昔より今のやけっぱちな感じの方が面白くて好きだわ。

逆に人間味ある。

多分少数派だろうけどね。

I'm not really a fan or anything, but I actually like her desperate persona now rather than her past persona that felt fake.
She actually feels more "human" now.
I think I'm in the minority, though.

あん時こいつを擁護してた連中もこいつの事なんかすっかり忘れちまってんだろな

I bet the guys who tried to stand up for her that time must have totally forgotten about her now

274：名無しさん＠恐縮です 2013/10/18(金) 22:49:52.12 ID:Z6po6qpm0

失敗は写真流出させるようなヤツとつきあったことくらいだろ？

Her only failure is dating someone who'd leak those pictures, right?

275：名無しさん＠恐縮です 2013/10/18(金) 22:51:05.58 ID:0T7DGNaJ0: >>274

But wasn't that fatal?

That was a huge miss on her part

転落って言うか自分でアーティストの道を選んだんだろ、オタのファンをバッサリ切って

まあ作詞作曲してもらってのアーティストですがね

People say that she's fallen, but she chose to become an artist herself by cutting off ties with her ota fans, right?
Well, she's an artist who still needs songs written and composed for her, though.

今でも何食わぬ顔してアニメイベントに出てるのが凄い

会場で野次やブーイング起きないのか？

And I'm amazed that she's still appearing at anime events as if nothing ever happened.
Don't people harass her or boo her at those events?

374：名無しさん＠恐縮です 2013/10/18(金) 23:29:09.80 ID:JsKPfgJBP

本人にとってはつらい話ばかりだが

いっそ話題になるだけましと思わないと

I'm sure that this is all painful for her, but she should at least think positively that at least she's getting some buzz.

なんかひでえ扱いだな

Why was she frozen out? She was treated rather harshly, huh.

干されたというより

自分から陸に上がって天日干しになった感じ
It's not really frozen out, but it felt like she surfaced on her own and dried herself out under the sun

And maybe it wasn't just her bad luck, but there was also something behind her leaving Pikaru

平野綾が出たことのあるバラエティがほとんど終わるか

低視聴率になってるのがおもしろい

And what's funny is that all these variety shows Aya Hirano used to be on are ending or currently have low ratings.

戸松遥と白石涼子と野中藍と野川さくらと中原麻衣と能登麻美子と川澄綾子と井上麻里奈と花澤香菜と豊崎愛生と竹達彩奈と三森すずこと茅野愛衣以外で

I don't know much about anime and seiyuus, but are there other seiyuus who are cuter than Aya Hirano?

Other than Haruka Tomatsu, Ryoko Shiraishi, Ai Nonaka, Sakura Nogawa, Mai Nakahara, Mamiko Noto, Ayako Kawasumi, Marina Inoue, Kana Hanazawa, Aki Toyosaki, Ayana Taketatsu, Suzuko Mimori, and Ai Kayano.
