Even though she isn't active now..that doesn't mean we can't talk about an artist we love!

Monshen (still again)

As a comment on an unnamed person's blog, Ms. Yumi Tamai—the composer/musician/scenario writer of the film Monshen and the voice actress who did the girl named "Rin" in Hayao Miyazaki's film Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi)—posted an inside story of Chihiro's comment on Monshen.

As a friend of hers, Tamai-san was unsure if she could ask for a comment from Chihiro—who has been inactive for a long time—and brooded over it since it may have a significant impact to post her comment on a public site. But Chihiro quite gladly accommodated her request.

Chihiro also gave her permission to post photos of the live performance at the premiere but Tamai-san is cautious about the idea because she feels that the environment that surrounds Chihiro is exposed to something that is both "unimaginably rapid and sharp."

Tamai-san has been delivering Oni fans' message to Chihiro—the message that every fan is waiting for her to come back. Although Chihiro doesn't seem to readily believe it, Tamai-san hopes every fan will believe in Chihiro and will continue waiting.

Tamai-san also hopes that someday she will have the chance to report on the live performance.

Come back, Oni. We seriously miss you. I guess that depression is really getting to her.
