| 7 | Minori Chihara (FanNickname: Minorin, born November 18, 1980 in Utsunomiya, Japan) is a Japanese voice actress and a J-Pop solo artist. She shot to fame in the anime industry in her [[StarMakingRole breakout role]] as [[Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya Yuki Nagato]], along with [[Creator/DaisukeOno a]] [[Creator/AyaHirano few]] [[Creator/YukoGoto other]] [[Creator/TomokazuSugita individuals]]. While her debut is actually {{The Ditz}}y [[Manga/TenjhoTenge Aya Natsume]], thanks to her role as Yuki Nagato, she's now currently viewed as ''the'' seiyuu for EmotionlessGirl. That said, in RealLife, she's actually a bit of a ditz. Her blog can make for sometimes unintentionally funny reading. |
