Anime Expo - Mari Iijima Sings - July 16, 1999

Sometimes the ironies of life - and fate - never cease to amaze. Mari Iijima has stated over and over again her intention to become a pop star in the U.S. by mastering the English language as a performer. She worked hard to create the all-English album, "No Limit." Then, when she performed at Anime Expo, the audience shouted out that they wanted to hear Iijima sing...in Japanese.

Ever graceful, Iijima accomodated the audience, which loved every note. Any strange feelings that followed were offset by the massive crowd that followed Iijima to buy the first copies of "No Limit" after the concert...
