Idol and J-pop entertainer 菊地彩香 / Ayaka Kikuchi (15), of group AKB48, announced on her blog that she has been given the chop after a tryst with her boyfriend came to light, with this news coming on the heels of the earlier compromising photos of her that were spread on the net.

More of the at times improbably beautiful modern seiyuu; it is little wonder the number turning their hand to a spot of idolling has been increasing, or it is it instead the case that lately idolisable seiyuu are the ones landing the prominent roles?

In a development which has turned the heads of many gravure magazine readers, idol and manga magazine ヤングチャンピオン / Young Champion has crossed the unspoken boundary which formerly was the limit these magazines were loathe to cross: the latest issue includes a photo shoot with JAV porn star かすみりさ / Risa Kasumi, not in itself too notable, but we also hear that she modelled in what is technically termed “hair nude”, a term which assuredly does not refer to exposing a fine head of hair.

In this gallery of most appealing young lady seiyuu, you are sure to find something of interest whilst furthering your knowledge of the profession at the same time. The question asked on the Vipper threads was whether seiyuu are lately getting cuter; perhaps only reference to the images can resolve this.

With the news that mega seiyuu Tubby Hirano (also known as Aya Hirano) is dieting, with the intent of no longer being in danger from Japan’s oceanic research initiatives, I thought it might be helpful to provide some more photographic evidence of her flabby frame, which came to my attention only recently.
Amazing that she has the gall to stuff herself into those bikinis…

Handsome producer つんく♂ / Tsunku looks to have added super-seiyuu Aya Hirano to his harem if their onstage antics are anything to go by; a jolly time looks to have been had in this promotional event for their upcoming collaboration, with Tsunku jolliest of all to have had Aya Hirano hanging off of him, by the looks of things.
The two are engaged in their first “collaboration”, if a singer’s relationship with a producer could be called that, for the ED tune to ヒャッコ / Hyakko, the upcoming anime adaptation of a digitally distributed manga of the same name.

Actress and idol 吉野公佳 / Kimika Yoshino (32), known for a long string of drama and film appearances, including the drama adaptation of Jigoku Shoujo, has shocked the show business establishment with the news that she has accepted a 25 million yen contract to star in an AV film, to be titled “Impact”, and published by “Muteki”.
The contract is said to cover a number of titles, but the 25 million only covers the first title, so she could be set for millions of dollars…

Aya Hirano, star seiyuu of Haruhi and Lucky Star fame, beloved of a legion of fans, has revealed on her blog that she is in fact hugely fat; she vows a diet in order to trim her figure to less gargantuan proportions.

We’ve seen some rather accomplished MikuMiku Dance MADs, but never one executed with such realism and charm as this, I think. Hatsune Miku dances rather more enticingly than the mere human whose moves she emulates; song is Bararaika, and the idol dancing is a Morning Musume.

A gallery of star idol actress 堀北真希 / Maki Horikita. Her career is perhaps less interesting than the likes of Aya Hirano, being a string of drama, film, and television appearances, with some earlier dabbling in light gravure, but she does photograph rather well, as you can see. Very well indeed.

A gallery of Japanese girls engaged in acts of sport. Some of the images are certainly enticing, although I’m not sure I share the sentiments of the many Vippers getting extremely excited over them. Clearly, a question of taste. On to the gallery…

A seiyuu and a porn star? 落合祐里香 / Ochiai Yurika (or Yurishii/Yurisyi), noted for voicing Yukiho Hagiwara of Idol Master (above), and Konomi Yuzuhara of eroge ToHeart, has a career which doesn’t stop at the normal boundaries of seiyuu idol, it would seem – all the evidence seems to suggest she had an active career as adult model prior to rising to fame as a seiyuu.
Of course, you can see for yourself the evidence below.
