Azusa Nakano‘s legion of fans has been celebrating her November 11th birthday with more enthusiasm than ever, crashing TBS’s site repeatedly in their frenzy to get at her birthday goods, and flooding the Internet with their many tributes.

I always wondered what would have happend if Ayana Taketatsu hadn’t gotten teh role of Azusa, if she would have continued doing more roles like Ako from Kiss x Sis or maybe even get an H-game debut. Ooh now that I think about it…I really want to hear her voice in an eroge…heh heh heh.
Azusa sucks! Worst K-ON! character ever!
Did you know the happy birthday is copywritted. This is why Hollywood movies can no longer have the happy birthday song in it.
Interesting less azunyan merchandise out on display during her birthday than last year. Is the Azunyan fever finally calming down?
it’s almost like worshipping no’?
p.s happy birthday.. i guess
Everytime I open an article that has ‘otaku’ in its title, it’s like being hit with the virtual stenchwall of Eu de ForeverAlone.
Belated Happy Birthday Azunyan ^_^
lol picture 43 LMAO
Gawd K-ON…WHEN WILL YOU FINALLY DIE???
あずにゃん!誕生日おめでとう!
Happy Birthday Azunyan
I don’t know which is funnier, the people that can’t tolerate others having different interests than them, or the hardcore fans taking up pitchforks to anyone that disagrees.
This is why we can’t have nice things.
Everything was good until No. 43.
That’s what is the truth, though. Pathetic that people obsess over fictional characters.
my birthday is also on november 11.
Coincidentally 11/11 is Remembrance Day observed in commonwealth nations to commemorate the veterans who served on the frontlines and it began at the conclusion of ww1.
Now I’m no scientist but I think ww1 ended cause everyone agreed to <3 Azusa rather then to fight.
Who gives a shit.
angry person right here.
I miss Azu-nyan so much. Happy Birthday, Azu-nyan!
So… the animated girl is supposidly 18 now right?
When you wish someone “a happy birthday,” you do it to make them feel special. Loved. Cared for. Whichever. You do it and they normally respond in kind because they *usually* have some sort of friendship going with you and value your being in some way.
Cartoons do *NONE* of this. They sit there. Unassuming. Unfeeling. Incapable in independent or SENTIENT thought.
So why, WHY do people continue to wish these “things” a “happy birthday” when the feeling will never be reciprocated?
Heyyyy you baked a cake for that character on your lcd screen. TOO BAD SHE CAN’T FRIGGIN’ EAT IT DUE TO NOT BEING ALIVE.
WTF.
Picture 43. Just. Great.
True roniness knows no bounds!
Didn’t some guy in South Korea marry his pillow?
Happy Birthday my beloved Azunyan!!
Wrong guitar in pics 002-006 and 041-043. It must be a Fender Mustang. If she holds it, then you can add more guitars, if you want.
Sorry, pics 021-024, not 041-043.
Are they celebrating the same birthday every year or do they imagine shes aging?
How old is she now?
3 years. She was born in the end episodes of first TV series in June 2009.
They wil despair when she hits the 30 number. Unless you are into that thing off course.
Btw I think they are celebrating the day that she is born not that she is aging every year.
Good for otakus, ww1’s armistice is a better reason to remember this partciular date though.
particular*, dat typo.
Happy Birthday Azunyan
Question is…this kind of people…do they make the cakes or are sold somewhere????????
I don’t know if you have a Baskin Robbins anywhere near you, but they do draw it out for you on the cake if you bring an image.
I got a Azusa and Yui one once for the hell of it. Very nicely done.
May Yui and the rest of your band-mates shower you with affection…
Happy Birthday, Alessa–er, I mean Azusa!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AZUSA!!!
She can’t hear you because she doesn’t exist.
someone’s got butthurt. boo, go back to your cave, troll. 🙂
“Says the Crazy-Fat-Guy, dressed as a yellow butterfly…..”
Doesn’t stop us celebrating Christmas…..
That’s what you think.
well well matey i think thee hangs around the wrong harbor.
Not big on K-ON but, meh, each to their own. Happy birthday Azunyan!
Happy Birthday Azunyan!!! :3
We love you!
Azunyan let feel your cat ears!
Happy Birthday Azunyan!

According to your top-50, Haruhi (24) and Yui (25) have the status of classics. Also, K-ON! (2009-2010) is the “youngest” show to have a character included in the ranking.
“You can enjoy it , love it but have the sincerity and objectivity to accept moe and kyoani dont mean = “best ever” “masterpiece” ”
Objectivity has nothing to do with this. There is no objective standard by which to EVER decide that one anime is “better” than another. What is “best” is inherently a subjective decision on the part of the individual.
So when a moe-lover says that they think moe is the “best ever” what they really are saying is that moe is best FOR THEM. When you (and so many others) say moe sucks, you mean moe is not the best FOR YOU.
All these lists and polls are simply opinion polls, with no objectivity present or implied.
So when I say that I find K-On to be the best anime that I have ever seen (and I’ve been around since the Dirty Pair days, son; no, the original ones), that is only my opinion, and you don’t need to take it as an attack on your own opinion. It’s perfectly okay if you don’t like it. But you don’t need to crap on those who do.
So let the Azu-nyan devotees have their fun. (Although I believe that Mugi-chan is clearly the better choice.) (that’s a *joke*, you know… remember what those are?)

ITS FUJIS TV TOP 50 not some fan or some rorums fans.
Nothing wrong haviong moe charactres there, some of us may not like it but they made their mark in anime history for good or bad.
Noe the issue here is that moe/fanservice lovers are NEVER onbective and will only rank their series targette at them as “best” “top” “masterpiece” “greatest”
This is one of the biggest issues with moe lovers, how many lists have we seen here when they rank the top best series/heroines, etc, etc, and they are only moe and fanservice series/characters listed?
When you have equal ground and take into account ALL fans and not just certain types, then you have balanced lists like FUJIS TV 50, theirs no WAY IN HELL Haruhi and K-ON, Madoka can as a series or characters can be top any objective ranks, that these series appear around the middle is fair enough sound extremely more real like labeling them automatically and blindly “best ever” in any ranks.
At this point I just say that K-on did to slice of life anime what Haruhi did for anime as a whole back on 2006. KyoAni definitely has people that prove that there are still people who can truly take something to a level beyond expectation in their work.
Having just finished Hyouka, I had to rewatch parts of the last episode because fucking museum quality background art distracted the hell out of me.
This is pathetic. She’s fake. Grow the hell up people.
so what are you doing here then eh?
Pathetic virgins. Pathetic virgins everywhere!
^
Awww, a man-child who assume things like an idiot…
You’re North American, huh…
People actually like Azusa?
My favorite character <3
Oh, and you're close-minded as fuck.
I literally laughed on picture 43, so true, so sad.
Another forever alone otaku.
Speaking from experience mah brotha?
You teached me, bro.
Well fuck yeah! *bro-fist*
FFS, why won’t that moe-fest K-on die already
Already dying anyway, it lasted much less than i originally tought, but is already being forgotten because of the moe-fest of the season
No it’s not, peon. You have no fucking idea what you’re talking about… just like a peon.
Butthurt fan that denies the reality above me
Why don’t you die already and stop your bitching?
Drawing fan art of a character on their birthday is nice, but when you start buying and making cakes to feed to your monitor or hugging pillow, then you have a problem.
What is this “problem” you speak of? Because I see no problem.
The problem must be: how is she going to eat her anyway? and if she could, she would be a fat fuck already because of the tons of candies and cakes many otaku buy for her
better buy her a dietary plan
She can’t eat it because she’s STUFFED
It’s you loser! You disgrace mankind!
Eh, not really. Moral-fags… now that’s a disgrace!
Sadly, moetards keep giving you negative because they know they are fucked up already
And you are bitching about it… you are fucked up.
@Darion Calm down, shit-for-brains. I’m guessing you don’t even know what the fuck Moe means, right…
Go on, keep degrading yourself to an idiot with no brains to ever think of a dignified comeback over the internet
