Nyan Fest Blog Posts – May’n and Megumi

Monday, January 9th, 2012

Thanks to Xard for the links!

There’s not much that these two girls reported, but they definitely delivered some songs we never heard live before. Megumi sang Niji Iro Kuma Kuma, May’n sang Kindan no Elixir, and together they sang dShudistab and Sayonara no Tsubasa. The most interesting part is that May’n mentioned that she thought singing the Valkyrie-aaaaa part in Sayonara no Tsubasa was very hard. She said that they took around 30 takes of singing that part during recording :P

Read Megumi’s post here, and May’n's post here.

Macross F Happy ~Nyan Year~ Festival in Pacifico Yokohama

Sunday, January 1st, 2012

Oh, and we thought there’d be no more of these kinds of Macross F events? The tagline of this event is even, “There’s no more stage like this!” It’s pretty clear that this event would include a song performance since May’n is in the guest list, and her role in the animation is purely to sing, unlike the other guests who are voice artists – Nakajima, Endo, Kamiya and Nakamura. The event is slated to happen on January 8, 2012 at Pacifico Yokohama. Gates open at 12nn for the first run of the event, and at 4:30pm for the second.
