    Normally I don't like seiyuu's music/voices... but I like some of Mizuki Nana's music.
    I have the "Great Activity" album, which I think is really nice - it has some great songs.
    I haven't heard her earlier music though...
    I'll listen to Ultimate Diamond soon.

    big fan of hers, she's one of the best live singers I've ever heard. Her concert in Saitama is my favorite. Her performances in Animelo are really good too.

    here's one of my favorite performances of her. Secret Ambition from Animelo 2007.

    yeah she's the ultimate seiyuu idol. She brings life to such great anime characters and can also sing her heart out on her songs.

    Trivia: did you guys know that she was the one who voiced Hinata from Naruto. :D

    I find it surprising that a lot of people don't seem to know that Nanachan voiced Hinata; it's one of her more 'notable' roles.
    There's a list of her seiyuu roles here. She's a relatively versatile seiyuu with moe voice (Shinobu - Shinobuden), grown up (Misaki - Darker than Black) and boyish roles (Wrath - FMA, Touma - Minami-ke).

    IMO, Great Activity is a very good album, one of the better ones. Since I've been looping Ultimate Diamond for the past two days, while it has some great songs, on the whole, I still like GA better.

    You should definitely check out some of her older stuff though; there are great songs there. She also has a 'the best of' album, The Museum, that was released just before GA.

    I've the whole of Live Formula through a few times already, lol. She is an amazing live singer <3
    Her performance at animelo is always the one I look forward to the most (then Suara and Minorin). I love the duet of Rondo-Revolution she did with Okui Masami.

    It's hard to pick just one favourite though; all her live performances are awesome (although I've lost count of how many times I've watched Dancing in the Velvet Moon :fear:). I can't wait to hear Shin Ai performed in a concert.

    This girl's impressive. You may've just started me on a new obsession.
    I'm going to go find her best album and give it a try.

    :awesome:



    I'm not her big fan but I love most of her latest song. My fav would be Shin Ai. Some songs that I love are mostly from anime, such as Meikyuu Butterfly, Black Diamond, Shin Ai and several more which I don't remember the titles. But to compare Ultimate Diamond and her previous album, The Museum, the latest one would be better. <3

    Ultimate Diamond is #1 on the Oricon Weekly Ranking!!!

    I believe this is the first time her album placed first in the weekly chart. What's more, the sales total for the first week was 74206. IIRC, the first week sales for Great Activity was around 45k. Almost 30k more, zOMG!!! :worthy: :worthy:

    Yesterday I listened to the album and to be honest the singles really didn't impress me. But the album is a very good whole package. I enjoyed it very much and I liked her voice more than I expected.
