With his successful performance at Tokyo's Budokan hall, Hekiru Shiina has changed the image of voice acting as we know it, from an unknown face behind the scenes into a central presence in creative productions. Her show at Budokan hall was as energetic and entertaining as that of any other top artist in other genres, and her varied activities in redefining the profession make her a leading figure in Japan's voice acting circles.

"Shiina [first name] was unable to attend today in person, but he has sent
the following message. 'I'm very happy to have received this award, although
unfortunately I have some work today and am unable to receive it in person.
This award will encourage me to put even greater effort into my work as a
voice actor, and I promise to give it everything I've got. Thank you very
much.'"
