The original MV for "Kogarashi ni Idakarete" remake by the ex-idol group Springs, featuring Hirano Aya in her idol-wannabe days, together with one Izumi Konata's awesome otaku karaoke performance.
It is so weird watching young Aya while listening to Kona-chan. Aya at the time is probably close to Kona's age. There's just so many subtext to this I think I need Miyuki to explain it all.
I hate to say this, I can't say Aya-chan really has what it takes to be an idol. She's not even the cutest in her little group, much less compare to girls in Momusu. And none of the current idols can even hold a candle to KyonKyon, the song's original singer. Her real calling is indeed voice acting... and now she's an otaku goddess. She probably make more money than Michishige Sayumi. HA! Who's laughing now?
