frequently asked questions

  • Do I have to pay to print and mail my letter?

    • No, but donations of any amount are highly appreciated and will help us create more events like this one!
  • Will the voice actresses read my letter? Will they reply?

    • We have verified that the address we are mailing the letters to is the correct one for overseas fan mail. However, due to numerous factors we cannot guarantee that the voice actresses themselves will open them, read them or acknowledge them in any way. All letters are to be sent with this in mind.
  • What about A-RISE, Saint Snow, and Liella? What about Lanzhu and Mia? Can we write to their voice actresses too?

    • We are only including the voice actresses for currently playable All Stars idols with the exception of Yu due to her large role in All Stars and the Nijigasaki anime. We may consider adding non All Stars members for future versions of this event though so please keep your eyes peeled!
  • I want to submit fan art with my letter! Does an edit count? Can I include transparent card renders?

    • Unfortunately we can not accept edits or art submissions that use renders. Please ensure all art work is drawn entirely by you.
  • Do I need to write my letter in Japanese?

    • Nope! English is perfectly acceptable and preferred. Letters will be sent to the Overseas fan mail address.

To Saito Shuka-san..

Hello there, my name is Dorielle, and I wanted to thank you for all your hard work. I've followed you since Aqours began, and I've loved you and your work ever since. Thank you for the energy you bring to everything you do, and I always look forward to what comes next. I love Papapa! And I loved hearing you in ワンダーエッグ・プライオリティ! It's really cool meeting different characters from you! I hope you like the art I drew of You as a Pokémon trainer! I thought Zenigame and Iwanko fit you well! Again, thank you for your hard work! You encourage me to try my best and have fun! Congratulations on being April's Weather Caster! I hope it goes well!

Dear Rikako Aida,

I am an overseas fan from California. I have been a Love Liver since 2016, and I only fell in love with Aqours in 2017. When I first started to watch the live concerts, the 1st live resonated with me incredibly. When you played the piano for that live, it was amazing to witness. Even more so when I read into the context for it. Ever since I watched that live, I admired you greatly. Seeing you and everyone in Aqours at Anime Expo even cemented my admiration. It's been a few years since then, and after all this time, I still idolize you. Especially with your recent ventures in a solo career, I couldn't be more proud and happy for you. I think I will be a fan for life. I look forward to your future. I hope soon I will be able to see you at a live, either in Japan or in LA.

Sincerely, a fan for life, Eri

For Yurika Kubo:

I haven't been a fan of Love Live! for as long as others, and I was never able to see u's live, but I still really enjoy the franchise and the amount of work the seiyuu put into it. Since I discovered the anime, I've loved hearing Hanayo's singing no matter what song it is. I also loved seeing you in the 9th anniversary Love Live! Fes delayed viewing, and I cheered for you with a blade in Hanayo's green. I hope you've been doing well since u's stopped performing.

Sincerely, Ben.

Dear Emi Nitta,

it's been a very long journey since μ's first debuted. I started my journey in the year 2014 when I discovered Love Live School Idol Festival and witnessed my first ever μ's song 僕らのLIVE 君とのLIFE. It was such a hapoy song, though I didn't understand since I couldn't speak japanese. But I looked up the lyrics and discovered it was a song of beginnings and to push forward with your goals, no matter how difficult it may seem as long as you believe. That's when I also discovered the anime. Right off the bat, I fell in love with Honoka's optimistic personality and her bond with her friends along with the songs μ's produced over the years. I knew right there that Love Live, μ's was what brought me back on my feet during my life of emotional pain and turmoil. This may sound exaggerated, but I feel like if it wasn't for the discovery of μ's, I most likely wouldn't be in this world anymore. That's the influence you've created on this earth. Everyone in μ's I appreciate greatly to the highest degree for all that you've done over the years for us, for Aqours, Nijigasaki and hopefully Liella. Around the world, people view the group μ's as legendary, because not onlt in the anime but in real life, you've all created a miracle. A miracle that has brought millions together to listen and share the joy that is Love Live. You nine became hope itself with your music and that's something I will hold close to me in my heart for as long as I live. I love μ's and I love Honoka Kousaka. I love them so much. I wish not only you but all the members who expresses the wishes of Love Live to live long, filled with great health and happiness and blessings. I, Kerozin, feel glad to be alive to witness the continued growth of Love Live. I hope this letter reaches you and i'm sorry that it's so long. Though, if I could make one request. In the Love Live School Idol Movie, the unknown female singer sang the song "As time goes by" by Dooley Wilson. It would bring me the highest amount of happiness if you made a cover of it, as Emi Nitta and Honoka Kousaka. Anyways, thank you for everything and have a prosperous future. いまが最高!

Thank you for your hard work on your solos too I love Tough Heart and No Life Code so much, listening to your songs and watching you preform brings me happiness and hopefully I’ll see you live one day! I really love you! From Emma

To Suwawa:

I wish I could write this in Japanese, since I started studying it so I could fully understand you at Fuwasata radio program, but it’s still too early (but I promise I’m doing my best, and that my next letter will be in Japanese!). I wish I could say all that I feel when I think of you, but I just can’t put all these 6 years of admiring you in a short letter. I admire how much you’ve progressed since your first live, clearly shows how much effort you put in practice, and inspires me to do the same. I love how funny and cute you always are, please never change. I hope all the best in your future projects, because without a doubt I will be there supporting you. Love, a fan from Uruguay.

Hello Shikaco!

From the very beginning when I got into Love Live, Hanayo completely captured my heart from the first sight, and your performance of her elevated my love immensely. You always have a lovely voice no matter how you apply it, and I can't think of any of your songs that I am not in love with. I feel nervous and that it is hard to express how I'm feeling, but idols have changed my life and I will always thank you for being my spark. I believe that you have the power to captivate many people with your cuteness and your talent. I hope that everything goes well for you and you stay happy in your successful future.

With Love, Hayden
