Huh. This not an easy to topic.

I don't agree with those who say she is overrated; I think she is good, and from all the good seiyuus working now she was the one lucky enough to win the hype lottery.

However, I agree with the "accusations" to some extent. In a very general sense: picking one choice over all the others, sometimes even without consideration, because it makes sense commercially from the viewpoint of the individual, can have detrimental effects from the viewpoint of the overall economic system. What they say is just this general statement in the case of japanese voice acting, so I believe it is true.

However, I don't blame her (or any other disproportionally famous artist, for that matter (again, this is not entirely true - socially engineered marketing campaigns can go and suck it)). You are an actress, you are offered a role, of course you will take it. Especially if you like your job. Why wouldn't you?

I agree with your second paragraph wholeheartedly. Good (voice) actors get even better if they find their match. Let's see where they can go with our Mamiko-chan (Mavis). ^^
