Aya-chan, still cute as always. :3
She looks more cute than sexy :3
Moe Moe Playboy!
Pic 06 looks nice.
Well, they all look nice.
And none of them have light reflecting off her forehead, which is good (for my eyes)
Like Abel said, more towards cuteness that sexy anyways.
I like pic 06 more, the others are nice also, still was hoping for nude pic with it being a playboy mag.
@4:29
you mean saying stuff on the same shows she's been saying stuff on for months?
some of you really need to learn the concept of selection bias.
she hasn't been getting any more exposure than she was before.
but if all you do is pick out things she says every other day on the same shows she's been on for months, and present that like its all the news in the Japanese entertainment world; yeah, it looks like she's suddenly got a huge boost in news.
whether its working or not for her is pretty debatable.
and that's not me being a "creepy otaku hater" (as the Aya Defense Force is ironically, considering their nature as a bunch of creepy otaku, quick to throw out), that's me being realistic about the state of her career based on probably reading more Japanese entertainment news than a lot of you here who probably get all your news from Sankaku.
she's getting attention, but her newfound celebrity has mostly consisted of Paris Hilton-style celebrity.
lot of attention, not much actual career substance behind it.
so far Aya's been unable to leverage it into much (i think she's gotten 1 role out of the whole deal and its ironically enough an anime adaptation; continuing here trend of no matter what she does, in whatever medium, her only success comes when hooked to anime).
and unlike Paris Hilton, Aya's not rich enough to ham-fist her own entertainment career by throwing money at it.
that having been said, Paris Hilton still makes A LOT of money for doing little else than being stupid and going to nightclubs. so arguably its as viable of a career as any.
the debate is simply what exactly was Aya expecting her career to be.
she's quickly, if not already, becoming more professional entertainMENT instead of professional entertainER.
Re: Anonymous 04:29 09/12/2010
I believe you were referring to PUBLIC exposure, sir.
Waiting for "leaked" porn video.
Meh...
aya seems to be a little confused as to what the hell she is doing... all this stuff she is doing right now just make her seem indecisive, she needs to pick something and stick with it...
mmm 6 is good, but given the rest I'd say she is an idiot. Oh wait, that was always ascertained months back.
Why is it that I get the feeling that almost everyone viewing this article is chanting: "Take it off!, Take it off!?"
Guess that her AV debut shouldn't be in a too far off in the future.
Like it or not, haters and other bad publicity is working to her advantage. anybody notice how much pubic exposure she's had the past few weeks?
Its true what they say in showbiz, bad publicity is STILL publicity. Just hope she stops doing crazy things from now on.
lol yeah was totally expecting nude when i read playboy
personally i love 6 and the lowest pic to the left in the last one O_O
totally cute xD
"the shoot proving something of a masterclass in Photoshop usage"
y? so mean, its not her fault :D
nah but seriously i like the pics^^
She only looks good with make-up. Without it she looks very plain.
"(the official Japanese version, “Monthly Playboy,” also published by Shueisha, ceased publication in 2009 due to declining sales)."
No wonder, Japan invented the 2D!
I wasn't trying to troll. I honestly think she is gross looking. Being popular does not instantly make a person good looking. Perhaps I became biased via all the articles. Lots of people find beauty in ugly people if they like the personality. But I'm not sure if that is the case here for me. No, really, something is off with her looks. Is it her eyes? 006 looks okay. Bottom left of 007 had me wondering if she had somehow managed to catch down syndrome (as if that were possible). I suppose that is kawaii for some. Not for me. Does that make me jealous, maybe. Yes, having good taste can be a painful limitation on oneself. So, you're right, I actually am jealous. But not jealous of her ugly looks. I'm jealous that you like her looks. (;_;)
@anon 04:27
you don't know much about looks do you? ;o
Jealousy isn't a good reason to bash somebodies looks~.
How bad is it that not even all the photoshop in Japan still can't make Aya Hirano attractive?
ewww, do not want...
She needs to stick to lending her voice to 2D. This girl is high profile of which I am a fan but she is not much of a looker. Certainly not a looker for me. I actually find myself grossed out a bit. DFC is fine...maybe longer hair or a bag would help her. *waits for ultra-fanboys to mark as drivel*
Avoid bikinis and keep those bangs down, miss and you'll be fine in my books.
Tho, I do have to wonder about the requirements of being on the cover of Playboy.....
Sorry to tell you but this is not the first time she appeared in weekly playboy.
The last images I uploaded of Aya to idol chan came from Weekly Playboy.
i want to see her in the japanese hustler. playboy is too artsy.
i've seen shonen jumps with more saucy pics than this.
Looks like an ugly version of Sakura Aida in a way.
She's whoring herself even more, that slut.
Even so, there's still no AV?
I guess it is matter of time
You forget that if she becomes AV, that would mean bye-bye Haruhi for good. And I DON'T want to happen!
but you can imagine Haruhi doing sexual things instead. It's the same voice afterall.
Seconded this, I wonder if Konata is having her H's days
nooooo i don't want to Aya became a gravure AV idol
How random can she get..?
I'm just wondering why anyone cares what shit she does. If she does shit, well, her life. As far as I know, posing for playboy doesn't really harm much.
As they say, all press is godd press.

no thats advertising. im fairly certain that it doesn't apply to people too.
and also, the fuck i get down voted for? recapping her the shit she did and said?
What an ugly, retarded bitch, even her playboy pics are boring.
shes trying to get more popular through hate vote.. you see people now tends to check all shes doing... and comment it.. some stupid tactics
lets see
i leave my promising career in which i have multiple major roles and iconic characters. (like or hate the anime, you know the characters she plays)
i fuck many old guys
i like thin condoms
i have a tumor
the continued variety shows as cultural significant as jerry springer (equlivlance, not content equilivliant, but culture wise)
and now one step up from a smut rag
all this not counting the twitter shit, her few meltdowns, and other bullshit because its common with "celberitys" to do stupid shit on social networks
the fuck does she want to do with her life? i mean can people rebound from how much she has fallen without being a mainstream iconic person?
Meh...
Where's my Minori Chihara?
Never happening lol
I kind of figured it wouldn't be -that- "playboy". Sancon has fooled me on more than one occasion with misleading titles.
Yea D:<
I was expecting the first photo to be blurry, considering Artefact's MO.
OMFG nosebleed° °w°, well anyways... no surprise, somehow I saw this coming
next up a full JAV and i will die from fapping too much.
I SEE A NIPPLE!!!!
REALLY *double checks pictures*. :3
All according to keikaku.
...
Nevermind.
*note* Keikaku mea-HURGH!! GRAARRGH!! *slumps over dead from heart attack*
