Maaya Uchida

Maaya Uchida (内田 真礼, Uchida Maaya, born December 27, 1989 in Tokyo) is a Japanese voice actor affiliated with I'm Enterprise. She graduated from the Nihon Narration Acting Institute in 2009 and made her debut one year later. Her younger brother Yuuma is part of the same agency as her.

As a child, Uchida was fond of video games, particularly Nintama Rantarō and Final Fantasy VII. Having dreamed of voicing characters from those games herself someday, she eagerly joined her middle school's theater club and researched which university offered voice acting courses.

After making a name of herself in the dubbing business, she began a singing career under the Pony Canyon label. One of her idols in the industry is veteran voice actor Kikuko Inoue. She is also a fan of baseball and is close friends with Sumire Uesaka. Her known nicknames include "Marei-chan", "Mayayan", and "Mareitaso".

Uchida usually lends her voice to young energetic girls or rough tomboys. A few of the roles she has done throughout her voice acting career include Izumi Yunomoto in Bodacious Space Pirates, Sharena in Fire Emblem Heroes, and Yuki Yoshino in Shokugeki no Soma.
