Family, early life, and education

edit

Yuna Ogata, a native of Hiroshima Prefecture, was born on 31 July 1997.[1][2] She is the daughter of baseball player Koichi Ogata and television personality Kanako Ogata.[3] She was educated at Hiroshima Nagisa Junior and Senior High School [ja] and Keio University Department of Literature and Social Sciences.[4]

Career

edit

She initially intended to become an announcer, but discovered an interest in theatre after a friend invited her to join Keio's Theatrical Research Group.[5][6] She eventually entered the Japan Narration Actor Institute [ja], and after learning that several students enrolled to become voice actors, she realized she could still do narration work as a voice actor, so she settled on the latter.[5]

In January 2018, she collaborated with her mother Kanako Ogata to produce a picture book in support of the Hiroshima Toyo Carp, a Nippon Professional Baseball team managed at the time by her father Koichi Ogata.[7]

She joined the I'm Enterprise agency in April 2018.[8] In 2019, she became one of the founding members of the voice acting unit Dialogue.[9]

She voices Honoka Tsukii in the mobile game Cue!.[10] She is also part of the game's seiyū unit  [ja] Airblue and its sub-unit Airblue Flower, and she also performed in both Airblue Flower singles, both charting in the Top 40 of the Oricon Singles Chart.[11][12][13] She reprised her role in the 2022 anime and the group released a single in January 2022 which appeared in the Oricon chart for 5 weeks and peaked in 7th place.[14][15] The group's album, Talk About Bverything, appeared in the Top 10 of the Oricon Albums Chart for three weeks.[16]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan, she reportedly spent some spare time at home working out and making apple and strawberry candy at home to record herself making chewing sounds.[17] In October 2022, she indefinitely suspended live performances and other physical activities for medical reasons.[18] In May 2024, she announced on her monthly syndicated column for Seiyū Grand Prix  [ja] magazine that she had launched a personal YouTube channel.[19]

Personal life

edit

She is experienced in jazz dance and yosakoi.[5] She enjoys visiting Shinto shrines and has listed the Shimogamo and Seimei shrines in Kyoto as her favorite shrines.[5][20] Her favorite anime is the 2001 film Spirited Away.[5]
