Formerly known as "Yukana Nogami" until she shortened her name in 2001. Yukana (born January 6, 1975 in Futtsu, Japan) is one of the [[ManOfAThousandVoices more versatile voice actresses]] that can go between cutesy or into sarcastic voices. Apparently as a child, she was so sickly that even she didn't expect to live longer than 20 years. To ensure she left a mark in history, she chose to become an actress. Her first big hit actually was as the titular character of ''Manga/AzukiChan'' and from then on, she started rolling even more roles, from [[Manga/{{X 1999}} Yuzuriha Nekoi]] and [[Manga/CardcaptorSakura Meiling]] and finally, the one that solidified her popularity overseas: [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Capt. Teletha "Tessa" Testarossa.]] The career also recovered her health that she's no longer sickly and she has lived on with her age doubling her earlier death expectancy.

As some radio shows have revealed, she has an interesting relationship with Creator/TomokazuSugita; she would often act as his CoolBigSis and would tease him like a cute little brother. There's a good reason behind this actually. She's also repeatedly been castmates with Creator/AyaHisakawa, Creator/HiroShimono, Creator/RieKugimiya, and Creator/ShinichiroMiki.

She opened a [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAt2ejts-_kslH4B0wAVRgQ/videos Youtube channel]] on March 2nd, 2020.

Coincidentally, her birthday is only one day off from her ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure'' co-star Creator/YokoHonna's (though she was born in '79, while Yukana was born in '75).
