I can imagine if Eva gets rebooted in the future, she could reprise this theme for the OP.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't her career effectively over after her scandal incident?

She has been an idol, or at least they attempted to make her one. Other than the CDs she had at least two photobooks and one idol DVD (I know this because I have two of her photobooks and one idol DVD. The DVD was the point I realised I was only really interested in her seiyuu work so I cant really remember what else they brought out, other than at least one calendar)

She's the female lead in Fairy Tail, Dende in Dragon Ball Super, and Migi in Parasyte. She's still kind of a big deal.

Aya Hirano's career ended for a moment, but then she found new work. Aya Hirano was even allowed to voice Haruhi again.

She sounded okay performing 'The Card Games Thesis', but I want to hear the kid for comparison.

No.

Considering her English voice acting for Lucy in Fairy Tail sounded pretty good, she could replace Luci Christian's role as Lucy in the English dub if anything happens. Wink

Cherami Leigh is Lucy in the FT dub, not Luci Christian.

And she regularly performs in stage musicals.

Aya-san's singing of Cruel Angel's Thesis sounded fantastic! Smile

^ Yes, I agree. I wish she'd do more singing in recent anime.

So close. Wonder what that does to an ego of a professional, losing to an amateur by factions of a point?

As mentioned above, Aya did get less work after the scandal. But she did get enough support by Mashima and others that she got some voice acting roles. Though for the most part she moved on to stage acting, which she still does today. That's why she went to New York a few months ago, to learn Broadway-style performances.

In fact, her going to New York allowed her to become fluent in English. So don't be surprised someday of hearing her getting acting roles in the United States.
