Rest in Peace to Sayuri, an awesome singer-songwriter of many anime & J-pop songs. Hearing the ED of Erased made me a huge fan of her unique voice. 28 is so young. 😢🙏 pic.twitter.com/uOpuOPmlGI

He wrote, “We sincerely thank everyone for their affection towards Sayuri over the years. We hope you will pray for her soul to rest in peace.”
He mentioned that Sayuri battled illness in her final days. She remained committed to her music and treasured the memories of people who loved her voice despite her pain.
According to media reports, the family decided not to share the facts of Sayuri’s chronic illness and health problems out of respect for her privacy. She had, however, already declared on social media in July that she was stopping her work because she was having trouble speaking. She stopped posting updates on social media and stopped appearing in public after that as she had been battling a chronic illness and took a hiatus in July due to functional dysphonia, a voice disorder.
Age 28 Sayuri was born on June 7, 1996. She was 4ft 11in tall. Sayuri announced her wedding to musician Amaarashi in March 2018. Despite not finishing high school, she claimed that she passed the certification exam for high school.
Sayuri career
Sayuri was impressed in sixth grade that Kanjani Eight created a band despite being idols. In her sophomore year of junior high school, Sayuri took up music composition, trying to emulate the lyrics and songs of Kanjani Eight.
Later while performing under the name Asuka, she joined the Fukuoka-based acoustic duet LONGTAL and began giving street and live performances in cities including Hiroshima, Osaka, and Nagoya.
Sayuri, who was the youngest competitor at the age of 15, won the Grand Prix in the Yamaha Music-sponsored fifth Music Revolution competition in 2012 as part of LONGTAL. She then started working as an independent artist.
In August 2013, Sayuri relocated to Tokyo. Even though she sang in live venues, she found it awkward to sing in front of a select group of people, so she started doing street performances for a variety of audiences.
In March 2015, she performed live for the first time alone at Tokyo’s Tsutaya O-East. She made her major debut at the age of eighteen on August 26, when she released her first song, “Mikazuki”. The song served as Rampo Kitan: Game of Laplace, Mikazuki’s closing theme on Fuji TV.
“It’s like a small light” was her second single, which she released on February 24, 2016. The song served as Erased’s closing theme on Fuji TV animation. The lyrics and melody for the song were written by Yuki Kajiura, the anime’s music supervisor.
The announcement was made on May 16, 2020, that the anime Sing “Yesterday” for Me would use the new song “Aoibashi” as its theme song. On May 22, it was made available digitally after being featured in seven episodes that aired on the same day.
“Hana no Tō” was released on July 3, 2022. She released her second album, Sanketsu-shoujo, on August 10.
Japanese singer and musician Sayuri passed away on September 20 at the age of 28. She was known for performing the ending songs for Scum's Wish, Lycoris Recoil, My Hero Academia Season 4, and Erased, among others. 🥺
