Watch Ra Ra Ra no Song on 8th live, the way she screams. Nuff said.
Maipuru is a hidden gem, during Idoling!!! she just shows the tip of the iceberg, with her solo live we got a bit more of that warm iceberg, I hope she can bloom to her full potential one day!

No, I don't think so. Just the movie dvd

Maipuru has one of those magic voices. It's not always 100% stable, but you know it has a colour to itself and what a beautiful colour. Idols with a comparable voice are really rare. Maipuru voice is actually one of the things that made me an Idoling!!! fan.
I simply love this woman.

^^ Agreed.
Maipuru (and most of Idoling!!!'s over 20s club) already reach her mature women "voice", which mean she doesn't really suit for typical "idol" songs (high pitched voices, or "noisy girl" voice

). IMO Maipuru (and the rest of 1st-gen) should try more smaller group (between Idoling!!! members) or even solo career just like her 1st solo concert.

Btw between rest of 1st-gen member, each one have different voice characterization.
Maipuru = Soft & melodic, not have much power => pretty much like Mai Kuraki
Ruri = high pitched & deep with so much power => maybe like Ayumi Hamasaki with different type
Ton-chan = typical japanese women singer, not so much power also => pretty much like Kana Nishino

In uRa Idoling!!! birthday event FC (Maipuru, Hiichan, Aichan, Reia-chan), Rurika & Yurippe pointed Maipuru as a ハーフ or half japanese (even Yurippe ask 日本人?? or is it japanese??). Me also will be asking the same question (if i have a chance).

IMO Maipuru looks different than many ordinary Japanese girls, first her face & her skin tone resemble south-east asian girl rather than typical Japanese girl. Her deep voice is also different from typical Japanese girl (quite nasal & high-pitched). And the last one, her expression & emotion are somewhat unique compare to typical Japanese girl in the same age. I've watched Maipuru from 2008 to now, her character was too calm & too mature compared to the other members (Even Sayanee who was older than her still acted as typical Japanese girl)

And last one, if i can ask her, i still ask "あなたは日本人ですか???"

Mai is my goddess of Idoling!!!

Her voice just sends chills down my spine. It conveys so much emotion no matter what she's singing and has lots of power, yet is smooth as butter. Her solos in Idoling!!! songs just make me want to melt, they sound so good. We really need to hear more stuff from her as a solo, hopefully it'll happen soon. I plan to look through this whole thread more thoroughly when I get home, just wanted to chime in and show some love for my girl

I just finished downloading late last night..can't wait to get home from work today.

Just watched her solo version of "U" from a live Idoling episode last night, and that's already one of my favorite songs, I was in heaven <3
