8	-->[[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Let me describe Yuu Asakawa gently...]]
9
10	Yuu Asakawa (born March 20, 1975) is a Japanese voice actress known for her deep and calm voice, often getting typecast as {{Aloof Dark Haired Girl}}s or {{Statuesque Stunner}}s (in fact, she's not quite one in RealLife at all, especially the tall part — she's only 5'3''). As a result, her characters usually overlap with MsFanservice and it's what makes her famous.
11
12	She was once married to another well-known voice actor, Creator/ShowtaroMorikubo. Unfortunately, they quickly divorced.
13
14	She keeps her [[http://twitter.com/Julia320 twitter]] updated, in English no less (and increasingly good English). Later, she added an English-language [[https://www.facebook.com/yuu.asakawa.320 Facebook page]]. She also hosted a web-based show called ''Otaku Verse Zero'' with Patrick Macias for a few years till the show stopped updating on 2013, introducing Japanese subculture to English speakers. Which means, yes, she had to speak English most of the time (had to speak Japanese to deal with some natives). She also [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClxFK1kq9FX4MNXj0lflkuA streams games]] like ''VideoGame/DarkSouls''. In June 2020, she stopped using Youtube and has since moved her streaming activities to [[https://www.twitch.tv/yuu_twitch a Twitch channel.]]
15
16	Often cast with Creator/YuuichiNakamura, Creator/TomokazuSugita, Creator/KaoriNazuka, Creator/HiroshiKamiya and others.

93	!! Tropes associated with her:
94	%%As with all Creator/ pages, trivia tropes about the creator specifically are to be posted here, not a Trivia/ page, as they technically are InUniverse in the case of the person's career.
95	%%However: As with all Creator/ pages, items that could go on a specific work's trivia page go there, not here.
96	%% Administrivia/ZeroContextExample: GamerChick: (depends on whether she's putting on a persona for her streaming videos. If she's not, then it doesn't apply.)
97	* MsFanservice: Not herself but her characters - particularly [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Rider/Medusa]], [[Anime/{{Gravion}} Mizuki]], [[Manga/AkameGaKill Leone]] and [[Literature/TheTestamentOfSisterNewDevil Chisato]] - do qualify.
