3	Taeko Kawata is a Japanese voice actress born March 20, 1965. She is best known by fans from across the globe as the Japanese voice of Amy Rose in the ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' series. Because of her child-like vocal range, she is often cast as young girls or [[TokenMiniMoe mini moe-type characters that hadn't reached puberty]] or [[GenkiGirl some that are cheery at times]] (compare Creator/SatomiKoorogi, Creator/MikaKanai, Creator/IkueOtani, Creator/YuriShiratori and Creator/YukariTamura in this example).
4
5	Not to say that one of her only roles, she occasionally [[PlayingAgainstType plays against her own type]] as being [[ShrinkingViolet shy]] or being [[EmotionlessGirl emotionless]]. It seems Amy's moe-like persona is Taeko's signature move, as some of her other characters have the same persona.

7	She occasionally appears in some anime with Creator/JunichiKanemaru (whom she's worked with in the Sonic games since 1998), and has a Twitter account.
