In 2006, she reprised her role as Lynn Minmay in ADV Films' English-language release of Macross, which made her the second Japanese voice actor to reprise her role in an English anime dub (following only Miyuki Sawashiro).

She dedicated her performance in the ADV dub to Arihiro Hase, the Japanese voice actor of Hikaru Ichijo in Macross and a close friend of Iijima.

2009

Iijima released her twenty-first studio album, called Echo, in August 2009.
