The photo is poor quality and the white text on light green is nearly unreadable. Font choices aren't very inspired either.
From what I've read it was the Taiwanese company Star Cube that screwed up, but I can't convince haters.
Good luck enforcing Admin Code of Conduct. Up to now enforcing those kind of behaviors has been spotty at best... we'll see if users benefit.
Nope, you are just guessing.
I figured it out... in kanji her name is 綾野ましろ (Ayano Mashiro), so the family name in her stage name is Ayano... it's just that Ayano and Mashiro can both be given names, but usually not family names.
I'm confused... which is her family name?
You obviously know very little about her... she didn't make any money from TV dramas.
Her forced hiatus was a crime. Good to see she can make a comeback.
You can really show your fandom by making a page for her.
Sadly many artists come and go... maybe she couldn't make a living with her music.
From what I can tell of what "christian horse girl" music is that there are literally gajillions of J-Pop songs and groups that have this style. I was a bit surprised that ClariS counted under this style.
From the video, you'll notice there are several anime idol units like μ's (pronounced muse) which is part of the Love Live! franchise of girl anime idol units. This franchise has several groups including the main ones: µ's, Aqours, Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, Liella!, Hasunosora Girls' High School Idol Club, Tsubakisakuhana Girls' High School, & Takizakura Girls' Academy.
There is another anime franchise, BanG Dream, that has more rock and metal oriented music, but they mix in songs more in the "christian horse girl" style songs, mostly from their groups like: Poppin'Party, Afterglow, Pastel✽Palettes, Hello, Happy World!, Morfonica, & MyGO!!!!!.
As for non-anime groups, here's some that are not as well known as the big AKB48 spin-off type groups or ones like Morning Musume or Supergirls...
Check out:
A few anime groups too:
Note some of the above groups have disbanded, but they still have lots of music to listen to...
YOASOBI is a duo with Lilas Ikuta as the singer and Ayase as the composer.
YOASOBI is generally nothing like "christian horse girl" music (which is a very strange concept).
Hmmm... I've seen some crazy signatures by K-drama actors/actresses and sometimes I can't tell what script they are using... LOL.
I guess K-pop idols who tour Japan and sing songs in Japanese might need to think about kanji versions, but TBH I think they shouldn't. Written Japanese is probably one of the most F'd up things in the world and almost the complete opposite of the elegance and simplicity of Hangul. The one thing I don't like about Hangul is how blocky it is usually rendered.
Kanji only applies to Japanese words (or Chinese in original form). Think of Kanji like Hanja (한자).
Japanese has three scripts:
Kanji - for Japanese words and names
Hiragana - phonetic representation of Japanese words
Katakana - phonetic representation of foreign words, but can be used for Japanese words (not sure why, but I've seen it)
