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.

yeah, how come she doesn't releases stuff now a days? her ballads are the best.

Aw, she's been depressed?

Is that why she hasn't really been back lately?

explodingbird · #4 19th December 2006, 05:44 AM

Aw, man, I was waiting for a thread on her! I love her. Along with Megumi Hayashibara, she was one of my very first J-Pop artists... actually, my first proper J-Pop artist, since before then, all my exposure was in anime and video game songs (I discovered her via Breath of Fire V's castle.imitation). My first love~.

I hope she comes back soon. She doesn't seem to believe in herself, judging by the article... hope she cheers up eventually,. realzies she has fans who want her back, and makes a nice-sized comeback with awesome music (I wasn't fond of her last single, but Sign and Arashi ga Oka were awesome songs).

This Armor = love.

jeffycue · #5 19th December 2006, 10:36 AM

best songs for me are Infection, Our Song and Koe.

midnightispure · #6 19th December 2006, 07:43 PM

I think my favorite songs are..edge, suna no tate, BORDERLINE, Ryuuseigun, Sign, Koe, call..there are probably some more, but those are the ones that come to mind first.

sexysaucestar · #7 19th December 2006, 08:02 PM

I really like the song Cage.

Hope she will try to come back sometime soon...her voice is very soothing to listen to, imo.

jeffycue · #8 20th December 2006, 12:45 AM

actually she has a lot of great songs... it's just a bummer that she's on haitus releasing.
