-Dedication-

Sara Wittenzellner

“I’m actually an angel! I’ll grow wings one day and return to the sky.” – Tsushima Yoshiko, Love Live! Sunshine!!
We would like to dedicate IDOL*USA 2023 to the memory of Sara Wittenzellner, known to many of you as Nao from Danzoo Dash. Sara passed away on July 2nd after a hard-fought battle with cancer.
I had the pleasure of collaborating with Sara for AUSA’s first Showcase in 2017, as she was simultaneously working to build the Starlight Idol Festival at Anime Weekend Atlanta. Since she already had experience performing with DZD, I was able to benefit from her perspective in order to ensure the success of our event, and her performance on our stage demonstrated all of the best parts of idol culture. Her kindness, energy and love of performing will be keenly missed by everyone in our community.
