Talk:Aya Hirano

message: Since this has been reverted back and forth a couple of times I thought I'd mention that, despite some online stores like Yes Asia listing the single as "Asu no Prism" the actual sung lyric is "Ashita no Prism". Shiroi Hane 21:25, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

message: The image currenty on the page has been disputed as apparently this subject requires a free use image. I've been told to either find a free licensed image, and I have no idea where to find one of those; request the copyright holder release the image, which I cannot do as my Japanese isn't good enough; or take a picture myself, which I can't as I'm in the wrong country. If anyone happens to have a copyright free image then please replace the current one and update the tags. Shiroi Hane 12:26, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Check the date; that was a notice from February with a previous picture. I have recently updated it with a new picture I found on her website.--十八 09:07, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Current pic is out of date anyway, she changed her hair a while back, although I have to say that she was cuter with the hair shown in this pic. 150.101.121.216 08:46, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Aaaand.. we're without an image again. Surely there's something out there that's free use? Shiroi Hane (talk) 13:21, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Either find one or make one. Flickr gives no hints. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 15:14, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Bit of a long way to travel and she might object to being stalked with a camera.. Shiroi Hane (talk) 14:14, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Pretty much, we will have to talk to the Japanese in order to get a photograph, but I believe we don't have to resort to stalkerish activities. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 19:40, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There is an image now but I do not think it will stay at Commons for long. No evidence that the image is free can be found at the source URL. -- allen四names 05:03, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

message: I'll think about writing in her past history with spring and other seiyuus, what I'm wondering is if there's anything else people are interested in adding? A list of commercials she was in for example? Eternal Sleeper 14:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Other works

message: There are a few points/facts from the Japanese Aya entry on the Personal section that I feel a bit shaky about, and several more that I did not attempt to translate. Some facts, however, I did not want to put in during my edits because I feel like they fall into useless trivia. But I could be wrong since I might misinterpret its context. Either way, help from fluent Japanese speakers would definitely be appreciated. --Willsun 01:47, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nonsense! precognition is a renowned skill. Quit your jibber jabber Zerocannon (talk) 08:29, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was the one who added that part in. My concern were the other parts I did not translate from the Japanese Aya entry that seemed to be very trivial information without references. Just because it's the Japanese page, doesn't mean that it isn't still part of a Wiki community and vulnerable to tactless edits. --Willsun (talk) 21:41, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Could you upload it. It's a nice picture :)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kunang Api (talk • contribs) 04:46, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I think she contributed to the ED albums of the anime Zettai Karen Children along with the other seiyus under the pseudonym, THE CHILDREN. You may want to add those in.

replies: text: Those are more a collaboration effort rather than her solo singing career. It can be discussed though whether those groupings should be added as a separate section; she's in a ton of them. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:44, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

message: What's the difference between a seiyuu and a voice actor/actress? 70.176.210.244 (talk) 03:27, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: On the surface, nothing except a difference in language used. On the other hand, Seiyuu has through colloquial use has developed a life of its own, just like Anime vs Animation, and should be included in its own in the lexicon when referring to Japanese voice talent.

thread_title: Using Japanese words when the English equivalent exists

message: The following reference can be used to at least partly replace the reference to Newtype USA. 6 (12) p. 50. December 2007.

thread_title:  Replacement reference? 

message: This reference, which is cited as Anime News Network, doesn't actually come from Anime News Network. Moreover, the real source doesn't contain the story referenced, nor do any news sources I've been able to find. Bongomatic 06:20, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bogus reference 

message: Not that it requires much explaining, but she has a benign tumor inside her head she's been carrying since her early teens, and that's the major impact on her career as of 2011. No psychological crack-up, attempted suicide, or any descent into madness; just a combination of the usual Japanese workaholic mindset and a tumor she can't get operated on unless she's prepared to end her career bringing her down after 10 good years. Reference in Japanese added. Jun Kayama  00:03, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Illness 

message: I've put in the discography from her website and also from Oricon, however, there are a bunch of singles and albums where she was working in collaboration with other singers, especially for Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky Star, and Zettai Karen Children (The Children). These particular ones are not listed in her discography. Should those be considered for Hirano's page, or relegated to just those articles dealing with the soundtrack?

message: I've ran into this issue before on Yukika Teramoto, Mamoru Miyano, and Ryunosuke Kamiki, but Aya Hirano has also made television appearances as a regular on variety shows and in live-action dramas. This article in particular states that she played one of the characters in the drama Muse no Kagami. I see that "Filmography" has been separated into "Anime", etc. but what would these roles be categorized under? lullabying (talk) 05:38, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
