Nao Tōyama

I'll be honest, Nao Tōyama has one of those voices I can pick out of a lineup in half a second, this clear, slightly weightless tone that just reads as "her." What I love is the range underneath it: she can play the sweet, gentle types and then flip into something sharper without it ever sounding like she's straining, and that kind of flexibility is harder than she makes it look. Then she goes and sings too, runs around a stage live, and apparently has the energy to chase a TV producer credit on top of it, which makes me wonder when she sleeps. The Waseda brain is in there somewhere, but she wears it lightly, and that easy, sunny vibe is a big part of why people root for her. Those two 2019 Seiyu Awards tell me the industry trusts her, and honestly, so do I.

Nao Tōyama is a Japanese singer, voice actress, and television producer born on March 11, 1992, in Tokyo. She is a graduate of Waseda University. In 2019 she received two Voice Acting Awards, the Supporting Actress Award and the Game Award, recognizing her prominence in the voice-acting field.
