This was awesome and hilarious. When you find out she's going to sing a song you assume she's going to stick with character acting like a cute idol when in work mode, hiding her real face as a jaded cynic of the entertainment industry the rest of the time. You just expect some cute j-pop thing like the opening of lucky star to fit with that, some typical idol type song. And she comes out with freaking Enka! And she isn't even messing around, the seiyuu belts it out with intense passion in such a throaty voice! I almost died the first time I watched it. And she sings it pretty damned well too. I actually liked the Lucky Channel segments even more than the actual show, and this is my favourite one. :)
@@kenshinflyer As I understand it, Ishikawa Sayuri has been the queen of modern enka for decades so I wouldn't be surprised if this song is modelled on her and her music and is practically a direct homage to her. When anyone in japan thinks of female enka they think of her.
And after 23 episodes of Lucky Channel, Akira finally apears in episode 24 among the main cast. Unless you count a cardboard cutout of her that appeared in the middle of the show. I just finished watching the show today and it was a great show. Probably the best alongside Yuyushiki. I wish to see more anime of this genre as my life goes on.
I love this. When I was in japan couple of years ago, I was out in the restaurant with my friend and her friends and we were discussing Japanese songs and they said there was a style of singing with the growls and I told them I had heard it, they were surprised and when I said the name of the song they all blushed. I had never really thought about this song that much but apparently it’s about (or at least the name that’s a term) around 30 year old women (unmarried I think) and that’s about the time they have midlife crisis in Japan and they all fit the description and started blushing and laughing. Idk. I just remembered that fondly :s
omg!! the ending is soo beautiful yet so low!! i mean the woman's voice at the end is soo low! my throat wud hav dried out after i can perfectly do it..well, at least im proud of myself that i can do the normal kind of angry ones, but still if i overdo it its over for me :(( :)
@@Guaporacer she is also a smoker. But hey, if you would have been used by the idol industry since age 3 without seeing a cent and are already past the peek of your lifetime career with 14 you would probaply smoke too.
@AbbumiCurseMarkQu Would it be a possible interpretation that she claims to be 14 in character to get popularity (her character is quite career-driven after all) when she really is a lot older? I've always had a feeling that popular culture (esp. Japanese) prefers teenagers on stage, after all.
In one of the earlier episodes, she basically admits to going through packs of "smokes" a day just to get through the daily grind. Not to mention it seems to be heavily implied that her drink in this episode is some sort of alcoholic beverage like beer.
was i the only one that thought dirty thoughts when all u heard was '-sounds like shes drinking- good stuff.." then when she's on stage she has the reddest face =3

Reminds me of Ishikawa Sayuri performing "Amagi-goe."

Its cute cough
@@rokkfel4999 its diabollogen
Definitely the highlight of the whole series.
The smooth animation just makes this one of the best moments in Lucky Star history
This Time I understand why she is pissed of. But hell, this Face and this Voice is brilliant.
Sucks to be her.
She was promised a concert last episode and this is what happens...
Holy shit. This comment is 10 years old...OP, are you still there?
@@Justfillintheblank I'm still here lol I had memories of when I had memorized this whole song
@@rachellecollin3661 woahhh Is this the real OP?
Are u still alive?
Wow 14 years ago
I love how she's shouting at him one second and the next she's singing as if nothing happened... kinda like me, but i'm not as awesome as akira~
ENA !
A real pro lol
E att she heard a singer
Yatta shenfrienenfriends No desu
You're not quirky

It’s the facial expressions that get me, they’re so freaking detailed, the way she matches all the emotions of the song, freaking gold
0:22 I like how she was mad at Minoru before she immediately sings the song when it starts 😂

Wow, 30 is pretty young to have a midlife crisis, but I definitely do get that vibe from Japanese media.
her song is great
Akira's so good at singing xD
Man she's idol
I love how she says “Ch-ch-ch-chotto“ in a totally different voice
The fact this video is now 16 years old 👀
She has coped for thirty years, indeed
Wa-wa-wa-wasuremono at the end XD
Can japanese have such a strong voice?
Yeah, they can. Just watch some Chinese movies about Japan invading during WWII.
BANZAIIIIII
Yeah, the high pitched voices are exagerated.
Go watch Outrage movies from Best Takashi

@@kevinjin8321 lmao
Never have I accepted a wonderful song being interrupted as much as this one.
ruclips.net/video/X0hq8bPUbJg/видео.html
@@ВольфМаксим-з3п Oh yeah I've heard the full song before, just saying how the way it gets interrupted in here was just fun to watch and not annoying.
I love his look disgusted at the beginning when she sings
all jokes aside, shes amazing at singing
OMG!!! it's the best episode of luck star! GOD! i love that song.
Also Shiraishi Minoru mentions "Exhausting Life Returns" or Kentai Life Returns, Kyon's single from TMoHS
Damn this is like 13 years old now...
14
16!
So Akira really is 30 now! Way to go with the cape, old girl!
Minoru went crazy with those Haruhi references...=3
I am wondering if Hiromi Konno is a trained enka singer. She nails it perfectly--a la Sayuri Ishikawa.
I can’t stop laughing at the beginnings this is epic! I’m gonna watch the show again lol 😆😅
I just remembered this. So good.
hahahah she's awesome. finally get to see what her seiyuu looks like
The singing is really well done lol Akira is the best part about Lucky Star imo
I was looking for this everywhere😅
And this was also HAKASE and SAKAMOTO San from Nichijou.
What the hell this is actually really good
*sings into the tune (Thrown into the spray of the waves)*
With Akiraaaaaa~singing madly~♫
She still...SINGS SO CUTELY!!!~♪
lol this is the first time i fell pity for Kogami Akira xD
Hakase and Sakamoto before reincarnated to Nichijou after throat cancer lvl 5
The Lucky Star characters look rad when they sing lol
lucky star is the best Moe Anime Comedy Trendsetter ever . and Japanese VA is best since most of em can sing .
omg!! the ending is soo beautiful yet so low!! i mean the woman's voice at the end is soo low! my throat wud hav dried out after i can perfectly do it..well, at least im proud of myself that i can do the normal kind of angry ones, but still if i overdo it its over for me :(( :)
Love the Kentai Life returns reference.
Could you imagine Akira singing "What's Going On?"
Akira's 14 XD everyone else in the show ranges from 16 to 18
b-but she drinks alcohol... i think i'll call the police
@@Guaporacer she is also a smoker. But hey, if you would have been used by the idol industry since age 3 without seeing a cent and are already past the peek of your lifetime career with 14 you would probaply smoke too.
@@Guaporacer I like how you replied to an 11 year old comment.
@@isaac10231 lol.
@@isaac10231Comments sections are timeless, just like coping 30-year idols!
How can she hold the microphone with such long sleeves 😂😂
Akira is awesome,
Her fights with Minoru are funny ^_^
I love how she got a well budgeted music video while Minoru got the most amateur looking "MV"
"Gone Astray" omg she sounds drunk!
wawawawasuremono
Even if it's from TMoHS, "wa-wa-wasuremono" totally belongs to Shiraishi now, hahaha
Best (budget) concert ever hahahaha
今野さん 綺麗だなぁ
Houshou Marine of Lucky Star
THIS IS THE BEST EPISODE EVER :)
Happy birthday Aikira!🎉🎂🎊
sebastiaaaaaaaan~~
Cute Akira singing
Really growling into the mic...
Hahaha
Minoru run run!
i has just found out that Shiraishi had just learnt how those hosts of enka-related TV programmes in Japan introduces~ LOL
I hate this character except for this scene. She is beautiful there.
Today i got 14...hope i don't get like akira :)
Damn, you're 23 now, hope you're doing allright.

She has ultimate PMS but yet she's funny as hell
poor akira
Is that Akira's VA singing in the video at the end?
Yes, may be (15 years later)
Akira, annoying as she is, is actually a pretty good singer
Ye

There are idols who claim themselves to be younger than they really are, but that's been exaggerated in Japanese media
GINIUS
yea.
Yea.
Wow
@XxNoobKiraXx No, I thought that too. That's probably why she was offscreen
... Who?
meh, I typed that about 5 seconds into the credits so I realized too late =P
🌐💠
When is that said in Haruhi?
@SkyTenshi888 NO WAY! shes 14?? but she smokes O_O
Where?
