Famed for her performance as Yuki Nagato in The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, voice actor and singer Minori Chihara will make an appearance at New York Anime Fest. She will be performing a concert, which should include the character themes she’s performed over the years and her recent solo pop career. This is Chihara’s second American appearance; the first was at Anime Expo 2007 with the other Haruhi voice actors, Aya Hirano and Yuko Goto. Fans should make plans now to attend as soon as possible – especially those who were shut out of the SOS Brigade’s signing in 2007. New York Anime Fest will run from October 8 – 10 in New York City.
