This week, Lantis posted a short music video for the ending song of Nagato Yuki-Chan No Shoushitsu, titled “Arigato, Daisuki” sung by Minori Chihara. Not only does Minori Chihara produce music for the anime, she is also the voice actor of the protagonist, Nagato Yuki, and one of the main characters of the original anime, Haruhi Suzumiya no Yuutsu or The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. Chihara has voiced Nagato Yuki in every anime based on Haruhi Suzumiya no Yuutsu, including Haruhi Suzumiya-Chan no Yuutsu, the chibi spinoff that aired between season 1 and season 2 of the original anime.
Chihara Minori has sung other anime openings such as “Paradise Lost” from Ga:Rei Zero. Chihara’s 22nd single, “Arigato, Daisuki” will be available for purchasing on June 24th.
In the Nagato Yuki-chan No Shoushitsu character songs, Chihara sings a duet with Natsuko Kuwatani, the voice of Asakura Ryoko. The song is titled “In Love,” and will release on May 24th. Both Mikuru and Tsuruya’s character songs release on June 24th, while Haruhi Suzumiya (Aya Hirano)’s releases on July 22nd. Nagato Yuki and Asakura Ryoko’s character song pictures can be seen below.
