Ikuta Erika (Ikuchan) / 1st Gen

I doubt she'll be resting much if she plans to take part in the upcoming 5th BD live concerts (or at the very least, in Nanamin's grad concert). Man, I really miss her so bad. Nogi just doesn't feel the same without her. It's a great wonder how I even survived her previous hiatus...

 

Yeah, she wont take a rest anyway. She've doing great job to take care herself. Her self defense is eccentric.

i just found this, ikuchan so funny here,

 

You should've seen it live. Although... I didn't, but I did see her first time doing Levann Polka on the 4th Year 46 Hour TV Marathon and it was really something. It had me laughing because I could not believe she was going to sing it. Then she did, and it was glorious.

Ikuta rulez!

 

Funny. I showed this video to a friend who said idols didn't have talent. She got shocked and said "this girl is special".

 

spread love to ikuchan,,,

 

I love this so much.

 

I love Ikuchan but watching this is just weird to me. She did well don't get me wrong, just don't know if I'll smile, laugh or stop watching it. This also reminds me of her alien drawing and when she did an impersonation of how alien speaks, so yeah in a way I find this a little funny....
But really, she is such a great talent...

 

Every time I watch it, Ikuchan's polka makes me love her even more. Who else in the idol world could have pulled it off?

Ikuchan will sing 「For the First Time in Forever」,「 Love is an Open Door」 from Frozen and 「I See the Light」 from Tangled in the Special NHK Symphony Orchestra concert (pardon me if the tittles are wrong) along with other musical superstars on July 30th, the theme is "Princess on Classics"
She's considered "musical superstars" here, and those Frozen songs, I'm SCREAMING!!!!!!

 

Another prestigious jobs. I'm proud of her. Alot of fans waiting for her to become Disney princess, and... this answers of that hope.

She's no Disney Princess. She's Ikuta Erika! There's none like her.

And dang. When will we get to see that performance? DVD anytime soon? And can it not be so damn expensive!

 

But there lott of friend of her ( Himetan try be that 1. ) . E... Ikuchan is so popular... so cute... and so on.

 

I'm so happy for her. We only got to hear bits and pieces of "For the first time in forever" in their Kojichuu episode.

We're going to lose Ikuta to the stage within the next year...

 

Do you understand what were they talking about?

I just hope that Ikuchan would take a rest from musicals/acting after les mis so that she can be center again before she might get busy again next year. It would really be inevitable that she might get more musical/acting related works outside nogi after the success she is having though its jus the start of the year.
