5	Ami Koshimizu (born February 15, 1986 in Tokyo, Japan) is one of the prominent new-age voice actors. Her first breakout role as Tenma Tsukamoto in ''Anime/SchoolRumble'' was... good, but nothing too groundbreaking. Then she was lucky enough to be numbered amongst the voice actors who received a huge boom in popularity thanks to ''Anime/CodeGeass'', alongside Creator/JunFukuyama, for which she won an award, and has since become the go-to-lady if you need to cast a deep voiced, serious and masculine girl. This isn't always the case, however, and she has also found herself voicing perky girly-girls, or sometimes the shyer type.

7	She isn't very good at English or reading kanji. She also did not know what the word "rise" meant before Jun Fukuyama told her.

9	Creator/HitomiNabatame, who has a habit of hitting on her female co-workers, refers to her as "Wife #4".

175
176	!!Ami Koshimizu and her works provide examples of:
177
178	* ActionGirl: Most of Koshimizu's roles are women who are capable of wiping the floor with others, regardless of the personality of her character.
179	* CrossdressingVoice: While not as frequently as other voice actresses, she has performed the role of young males on some instances.
180	* MsFanservice: Most her characters do qualify particularly [[Anime/CodeGeass Kallen]], [[Anime/KillLaKill Ryuko]] and [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters Mai]].
181	* StarMakingRole: First noticed as [[Manga/SchoolRumble Tenma Tsukamoto]]. Ultimately, it is [[Anime/CodeGeass Kallen Stadtfeld]] that launched her into ultimate stardom...and pretty much codified her being cast as an ActionGirl.
182	* TrrrillingRrrs: A spate of HotBlooded roles have shown her to be quite good at this. (See any of Ryuuko's battle scenes for an example.)
