Aki Toyosaki



Aki Toyosaki (豊崎愛生) is a seiyuu born in 1986, and is best-known for her role as the ditzy guitarist Yui Hirasawa in the anime K-On. Her actual voice seems to be rather similar to Yui's on that show, judging by interviews (however, she used to hate her high-pitched voice when younger). Toyosaki typically lends her voice to characters that are silly but kind hearted.

She's also been expanding as a music idol: she joined a J Pop group called Sphere in 2009, along with fellow seiyuus Haruka Tomatsu, Ayahi Takagaki, and Minako Kotobuki, releasing a solo single that same year. As a result of her roles, she is a relationships with Minako Kotobuki and Yoko Hikasa, both costars on K-On!, as well as Kanae Ito, who are Su and Amu/Dia, Momo and Nana, Uiharu and Saten, Otohime and Ringo, Melwin and Eris, Nako and Ohana and Jun and Elsie respectively.
