Yuna Ogata (Japanese: 緒方 佑奈, Hepburn: Ogata Yūna, born 31 July 1997) is a Japanese voice actress and singer from Hiroshima Prefecture, affiliated with I'm Enterprise.[1] A founding member of the voice acting unit Dialogue, she is also known for voicing Honoka Tsukii in Cue!.

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]

She collaborated with her mother Kanako Ogata to produce a picture book in support of the Hiroshima Toyo Carp professional baseball team, managed at the time by her father Koichi Ogata. The book was released in January 2018 and available in stores nationwide.[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 everything, appeared in the top 10 of the Oricon Albums Chart for three weeks.[16]

During the Coronavirus pandemic she reportedly spent time making apple and strawberry candy at home to record chewing sounds and working out.[17] In October 2022, she indefinitely suspended live performances and other physical activities for medical reasons.[18] In May 2024, she announced that she had launched a personal YouTube channel in her monthly syndicated column for 声優グランプリ [ja] magazine.[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]
