My Take
Maaya Uchida is one of those voice actresses who makes me sit up because of how much range hides behind that sweet, soft tone of hers. She can do adorable and innocent, sure, but she'll just as easily slide into something sly or quietly steely, and you never quite know where she's going to take a role. What I love is that she didn't stop at voice acting; she sings, she acts, she carries a radio show with that easy chatty charm, and she's been running on all cylinders since picking up Best New Actress at the 2014 Seiyu Awards. Staying frontline that long isn't luck, it's craft. Add in that her younger brother is a voice actor too, and you've got a seriously talented family. That mix of fluffy warmth and stubborn pro instinct really gets me.
