Aya Hirano has descended upon Akihabara to promote her new single, “Hysteric Barbie,” even more eye-wateringly dressed than usual.
The scene as recorded by the Aya on her blog:
The scene from the perspective of one of her otaku peons:
She then went home – apparently she dresses as a boy in her spare time:

Listening to the single now... Not really very good. I liked 'Riot Girl', too. Huh...
I love it! I wanna dress up like this too... ^_^
cute aya is cute
for any ignorant fool out there, google lucky star,SHnY.
so i'll just say it J-pop lady gaga
you FAIL! ayana looks y better than lady gaga! D://<) so yeah had to blur that out.
She looked best as a little boy. o_o
gorgeous simply gorgeous :D love the new look not to mention she's in a barbie world XD
That outfit is...oh my god my eyes lol. That said, although I do think she's dangerously underweight, that's not all that unique among idols, she just gets the most flak for it since she's quite prominent. Compare Mizuki Nana, who is definitely not anorexic and actually has quite a nice ass. Aya's still cute even with the ugly outfit if I focus on the part above her shoulders, that wig is very bright but still works for her. Of course, the best picture is the last one. Who knew Aya dressed like a shotaro would be so cute?
I do have an issue with the Paris Hilton comment though--Aya actually does something for a living and she's not a complete unapologetic bitch.
lol, if boys looked like that i would so be gay
yeah i think she's even hotter as a boy
no surprise preggers, always a plus in my book.
anyone notice, no one bought any CDs?
Looks like some cheap low rent idol.
All i want to know is how long before the mattel lawsuite
Aya is my waifu
my first thought about Aya, she not the cutest but still she kinda cute, but after looking at her without make-up, gosh, she's not even close to cute. But she brave to let the media snap her photo without having any make-up on. Now i wonder again, how about others? how do they really looks without a make-up? Some artist even forbid the media to snap her photo while not having make-up.
This girl seems awesome.
Looks best in the last pic by far :)
That last picture was the best
Great single. Listen to it! And Aya's still hot as usual, no matter how her weird her hairdo is!
LOL,she can portray kinoshita hideyoshi in a live-action baka test if she looks like that in the last pic or any other trap/male clothes-wearing female character.
First of all : I WANT THAT SKIRT!! o><o
Secondly : I prefer her with boyish look...
More appealing and less freaky - gomen Aya fans...
Hm...Actually...Dressed as a boy she looks kind of like the ideal little brother of my dreams LOL
Nice reverse trap, Aya-chan XD
IRL Misty
You know its fail (or win depending on your pov) when you look 9000 times better dressing up as a boy .....
Aya in anything would suffice for me, but I'd say she looks better dressed like a tomboy
The ending joke, sir, was lame. Low below the standard I have come to expect from thee.
What joke?
Aha. I was wondering about that and no wonder since the last picture didn't show up then. Sorry.
the last pic?
she was so much cuter when she wasn't a maniac
Her legs in picture 8 ?
Do not want. Wtf how can she even have the muscles to support her body in there?!
As most Americans wouldn't know, you don't need thick legs to support a tiny 110 lbs body.
but look at it from here.
little body mass means lesser figure over all, less ass less boobs (not that those matter to me)
but damn she has a great face. heres hoping she proves me wrong and has a great ass too.
Her 'shirt' says "all ya gotta do is just gimme that..." can't quite make out the rest, but I'll assume it's "TONGUEBATH"
I still prefer her friend from the last article.
Am I the only one who's too concerned about wanting that Ookiku Furikabutte bulletin board in the 15th picture?
The only thing right about this is the "Hysteric" part. Nailed it.
Nice
She looks fine.
If anyone has seen Lady Gaga lately, this is a rather minor fashion statement.
However she'll probably need to sack her image stylist, something is seriously wrong when her reverse trap mode looks better than her promotional image...
She looks like an idiot...major boner killer.
Since she is a singer, and not a hooker, this might be her intent.
I think u look more idiot.
don't worry waxman will help you out ???
Who is she? Why every times in Sankaku mention her name? Is she really that famous? I mean there are many girls in AV idol, actresses, singer etc... that is more kawaii or sexier than her?
She did voices for very key anime characters, that would certainly be one thing.
she's like Paris Hilton.. except she actually does something other than drinking and flashing her couche to the public...
I hate that \V/ stuff, it gets far to cliche, although the vampire mickey shirt was a nice ending touch.
she's moe if you compare her to your fat ass mom.
How is she the Japanese Paris Hilton if she lacks the key things that make Paris Hilton, Paris Hilton?
1 thing I love about Aya Hirano is her ability, she may not as good as Megumi Hayashibara yet, but I'd like to vote her to second place in seiyuu world anytime.
Japanese paris hilton is like so much more moe then xD
Last pic . . . vampire mickey
How can you hate her
She is really cute with the tomboy look.
Sadly, only the last pic look decent...
Oh no she didn't....
Mi*** ***** !!!
This is madness! Why are you guys voting up this comment? This should be a drivel...
will that store really sell all those cd's?
you dare doubt the power of her cult!
love the tomboy look
Reverse trap FTW!!!
>apparently she dresses as a boy in her spare time
Do want.
waaaaai aya-kun kyawaiiii <3
Thx ^___^
why is your comment -1'd?
Aya, what happened? D:
cocaine?
.. had an old g/f that was a bit portly... then she got on cocaine, and the lbs just melted away.. then she when insane.. go figure..
Look, so many people that you can't even see her!
I'm not a big fan of this new "hysteric" look..., the tomboy is kinda cute, though :)
Obviously, she dresses like a boy because she doesn't want to be bothered by people who recognize her. Common sense.
That last picture struck a chord within me and reawakened my love of tomboys. Probably the first and only time I'd ever think Aya Hirano is cute.
Besides that?
She's annoying like all fuck.
she looks sweet dressed up as a dude, lolz
I'd prefer the reverse-trap Aya in the end, much cuter.
Every time I look at her, I have a craving for strawberry sundae...
That said, I like her looks...Go have fun like nobody's business, Aya~
Whoever came up with that new look needs a serious kick in the balls.
As for the last pic, casual dressed aya is always cute<3
awww, the last picture of her is so cute!
^__^ Thank you for your compliment!
hmm.. the tomboy look is nice...
and she needs a big mac... with fries.. and a diet coke...
i highly doubt she's even 110 lbs....
