Kaede Hondo

Kaede Hondo (本渡 楓, Hondo Kaede, born March 6, 1996 in Nagoya, Aichi) is a Japanese voice actor affiliated with I'm Enterprise since 2015. She won the award for Best New Actress at the 13th Seiyu Awards.

During her time in school, Hondo was active in both sports and theater. At the time, a woman once told her she had a face that would go well with makeup. Not sure what that statement was about, the young girl later realized it meant her face made her suitable for acting or modeling.

While this encouraged her to audition for jobs related to those fields, she did not consider voice acting as a career option until one of her instructors, who was a radio personality, convinced her to pursue it. As a result, she attended the Japan Narration Acting Institute and graduated. Her interests are spicy food and colorful fashion.

Because Hondo was already an anime fan since her youth, she quickly adapted to the various roles given to her. She has lent her voice to Myonri in Heavy Object, Sakura Minamoto in Zombie Land Saga, and Tsukino Saotome in Judgment.
