Come from Inuyasha is one of my all time favorite endings. She has a beautiful voice and makes really great ballads so it'll be sad to see her go. But I'm thankful for the gifts she's bestowed on us.

......why? Sad.

Four Seasons was one of my gateway Jpop songs and one of my top 3 InuYasha songs.

edit: Never forget she gave us this gem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_UhKcAy6xc

I'll never forget her InuYasha TV ending. Both a musically and visually stunning ending.

Loved Four Seasons in the Inuyasha movie "Swords of an Honorable Ruler". One of my favorite anime movies of all time had such a beautiful ending theme sung by this lady. Come (the sixth ending theme for the anime) was seductive and lovely to fall asleep to, though I didn't know until recently that it was by the same artist. I'll miss hearing her sing.

This apparently caused quite a stir in Japan. Even Avex wasn't aware of the announcement until it was posted on her own website.

Whoa, didn't know that. Makes it really shocking. I hope she was being spontaneous and that something isn't going on personally or something.

This was surprising, even though I haven't really kept up with her recently. But I hope she will stick with producing, song writing and more.
