Hitomi Nabatame (born August 4, 1976) is one of the newer generation voice actresses with an impressive vocal range. She's done bratty girls, an Emotionless Elegant Gothic Lolita, a sexy, mature lady, and then an abrasive woman. She finds herself pigeonholed into Hard-Drinking Party Girl characters and anything with Les Yay (her Eroge roles, however, put her in a cute childish). She also has a habit of calling some her fellow voice actresses 'wives' (Yui Horie as Wife #1, Mamiko Noto as Wife #2, Kaori Shimizu as Wife #3, Ami Koshimizu as Wife #4). She also had a short relationship acting stint with Kenichi Suzumura.
Nabatame has an interesting entry in the world of anime, as she was considered such a genius in her area of expertise that after graduating from her school she immediately got scouted for a main character position in Maburaho.
She announced her marriage, on her birthday which is also the same birthday of one of her characters, Mana Aida/Cure Heart.
