Kikuko Inoue





Just call her "Onee-san", because Kikuko Inoue is probably the most motherly or elder sisterly regarded voice actress in the Japanese voice acting industry. She voiced some of the most angelic, mother/elder sister figure type characters, all with that deep, mature voice that she portrays. Of course, even though she's almost in her fifties now, that doesn't stop her from sounding 20 if she needs to. Valkyrie (Valkyrie No Densetsu) and Phillia (Tales Of Destiny) are pretty much the kindred souls that can do no wrong. Cecile (Code Geass) is more of a leader figure, Nanase sensei (Chunibyo series) is a kind and angelic teacher that has her own sense of responsibility. Eleanor (Zero No Tsukaima) has a demonic temper, but can be a loving sister if she needs to be, the exact opposite of Akira (Baka To Test To Shokanju), who's a total bro-con that tries to seduce her brother at all times. Tycho (Devil Survivor 2:The Animation) shows us that she can do an energetic, lively girl no problem, and I-no (Guilty Gear) is just the exact opposite of all of her roles, a total sadistic, bad-ass bitch.

Aoi Yuki





Aoi Yuki was one of the few voice actresses with a loli voice that I used to absolutely adore, until many others came up. Still, I do love her voice, she's pretty versatile when it boils down to it, and for someone her age, I think she's doing a pretty fantastic job with all of her characters. I think she has a fantastic voice for young, energetic girls. Platinum (Blazblue Series) both fit the bill here Iris (Pokemon Best Wishes Series), and while Kohina (Black Bullet) is rather jumpy as well, she's has a nice, sinister touch to her that makes her super evil at the same time. She makes a great magical girl with a shounen hero personality with characters like Hibiki (Senki Zesshou Symphogear Series) and Madoka (Puella Magi Madoka Magica). She does well as a soft spoken high school girl with Mio (The World God Only Knows), as well as a technical genius with Akira (Valvrave:The Liberator), and she can be plain old, ditsy and clueless if she wants to with Meme (Soul Eater Not!). Then there's the devilish little sister with Komachi (My Teenage Romantic Comedy SNAFU), and Jubei (Hyakka Ryouran Series), whose a badass mix of two personalities.

Rina Hidaka






When it comes to lolis, she's got you covered, almost more than anybody else, really. Rina Hidaka just has a voice that's perfect for the likes of young girls, and she's got a lot to show for it. Her more famous roles come from the incredibly energetic lolis, Enju (Black Bullet) and Last Order (To Aru Majutsu No Index Series), both of which are also capable of insane mood swings. Airi (Ro-Kyu-Bu) is soft spoken, kind, and really shy, while Silica (Sword Art Online) is a typical representation of a damsel in distress (who's also a loli). Nagisa (Strike The Blood) is a perfect middle school little sister, while Anko (Tamako Market) is an even cuter little sister. Hozuki (Galilei Donna) is a fired up little genius girl who wants to explore endless possibilities, while the Red King (Accel World) just wants to fool people with that fake smile of hers and smash all her opponents into bits.

Rikiya Koyama





Here comes the boss! Rikiya Koyama has one of the manliest voices in the voice acting industry, and while his characters range from weird to badass to heroic, its this strange diversity that makes him what he is. He has the perfect voice for villain type characters IMO, especially the calm, cool and collected ones. Kagetane (Black Bullet) is freaking perfect, being a villain who's always unpredictable, and he currently might be my favorite character of his at the moment. Kiritsugu (Fate/Zero) is a badass main character AND father, Azazel (High School DxD New) is just a swaggy old man who likes to joke around, but can really mean business if he gets serious. Then we've got the serious fellas, like Ronaldo (Devil Survivor 2:The Animation) and Mishima (Coppelion), or the bloodthirsty warlord who always craves a challenge, Takeda (Nobunaga The Fool). Kira (Jojo Series) is yet again another delicious villain, while Stark (Bleach) is just a freakishly strong fella who doesn't give a f**k about anything else. Shinigami (Soul Eater) is just troll as hell, no words are needed.

Maaya Uchida





There's really not much of an ongoing trait for Maaya Uchida, I mean, she voices all freaking types of characters, its crazy. I guess if its something she's good at...its pretty much everything. She can do innocent, soft spoken high school girls like Rea (Sankarea). She can go full retard, while still being shy and soft spoken with Rikka (Chunibyo Series). Then there's the occasional cocky high school girl that can put up a fight with some epic ability with Frenda (To Aru Kagaku No Railgun S), or Irina (High School DxD New). If you need an older sister archetype, she's got it too with Minori (Outbreak Company). Need a crazy, stupid and illogical girl who just can't shut up about her jokes? Mao (Gj-Bu) has got you covered! How about a typical, serious main heroine who's in high school? Rei (Vividred Operation) is here for all your heroine needs. Badass, merciless slayers? Zero (Drakengard 3) says hi. Then we have my 2 favorite characters from her, Hajime (Gatchaman Crowds) who's cheerful and enthusiastic as all hell, as well as Hiyori (Noragami), who's a funny girl with lots of personality.

3rd row: Minori (Outbreak Company), Hiyori (Noragami), Zero (Drakengard 3)



Peace.
