is a Japanese voice actress affiliated with Ken Production. Her major roles include Maria Ross in Fullmetal Alchemist, Yoite in Nabari no Ou, Kuranosuke Koibuchi in Princess Jellyfish, Tiz Arrior in Bravely Default, Mòrag in Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Hibiki Shikyoin in PriPara and Solulu in Kiratto Pri☆Chan. Her deep and rich voice make her a versatile and fluid actress.
Career She started working as an actress at the age of 18. "But I didn't have any regular gigs," she told Newtype in 2003. By the time she was 20, she recalled, "I was lucky if I landed one role in six months – or even one audition a year," adding: "I didn't worry about it because I thought it was my learning period." She still got work, however small, and appreciated whatever job she could land, whether she had just "a single line" or many. "I was happy just to be in the recording studio," she continued. "I guess I was on the starting line, about to take the first step toward becoming a voice actress." Her career only truly took off with notable roles five years down the road when she turned 25. "Twenty – or rather, the twenties – is a time for polishing your skills. None of the experience you get during that time will be wasted, so it's a very meaningful period."
She won a Best Supporting Actress Award at the 2nd Seiyu Awards for her work in Moyasimon: Tales of Agriculture, Gurren Lagann, and Toward the Terra. She also won the Overseas Fan Award at the 4th Seiyu Awards for her portrayals of Wolfram in Kyo Kara Maoh! and Souji Okita in Peacemaker Kurogane. As the band Mitsuki Saiga feat. Just, she released several albums and singles that have charted on Oricon.
