Yui is someone who used to have a thread at the old jpopmusic forum and now doesn't seem to have one at any place I'm familiar with.  So I was rather pleased to see one pop up here. 

I may break the habit of a lifetime and start a thread myself soon.  I'm getting a little frustrated with yuku.com.  It's difficult to use - and I'm increasingly unable to see the logic behind some of what is happening there.  Thank goodness for jph!p.

Yui has done a lot of good stuff over the years.  She's not my all time favourite anison artist but she's a real character and I've developed quite a soft spot for her.  She seems fantastically self-sufficient.  So, yes, I really thought someone should follow up on your initative.

I may try and dig out my copy of the "Nyanderful" PV because it's quite brilliant.  In the mean time here's another old song I like, "Far Away".

Yui and a bunch of the other usual suspects lined up for the "Super Game Song 2012" event in Yokohama on May26th.  Looks like someone is trying to set up an Animelo style event with a specific game music focus.
