Nana-chan on TV – post Kouhaku Edition
LOL @ the spin machine working at full force. Before Kouhaku, the majority of Nana-chan’s mainstream TV interviews can only be said to be degrading and painful to watch. How things have changed. Look at how they managed to turn one of the biggest lolicon otaku cult fav franchise that is the remake of the original Nanoha (when Nanoha and Fate were still 3rd graders) into something that sounds positive. The difference is striking, in the interview at the 3:15 mark they managed to put on videos of pretty female interviewees, and the guys can easily pass off as normal or even イケメン (ikemen which means good looking/handsome, like the two young guys after the two females), instead of the usual stereotypical pale otaku with glasses and bad hair (ok there was one at around the one minute mark). They even managed to spin the Nanoha movie premiere event into one where it looked as if everyone were there for Nana-chan’s appearance, despite the event has other seiyuu like Yukarin (whose fans are even MORE rabid).
Ah, TV entertainment industry, how manufactured your are.

The exposure is sure good for her, Mizuki Nana was the 3rd most searched Kouhaku artist name right now. The spin is causing backlash amongst the seiyuu ota, and even some of us Nanatards are ashame of this spin.

Nah, I may be a Nanatard but I also like Yukarin and other seiyuu, so I feel bad for Yukarin too!
