Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

"Be careful not just of influenza, but also cars."

Chisa Yokoyama is a veteran seiyuu who is also a genuine anime fan herself. She tends to voice Yamato Nadeshiko or Cool Big Sis roles, sometimes tended to be Hot-Blooded like Subaru in Martian Successor Nadesico. Against that type, her most famous role in North America for years was Sasami from Tenchi Muyo!

In 1996, she visited Los Angeles to perform a live concert (along with Sharyn Scott, her English-language counterpart) to promote the various Tenchi Muyo! series and spinoffs. She showed that both her fluency in English and her ability to sing were just as good as her seiyuu skills. (Clips from this concert can be found with a simple search on YouTube.)

In August 2009, she suffered an accident while riding a scooter. A car hit her hard and Chisa earned broken bones. Thankfully, they healed, and this caused her to say that quote of hers in her blog.

She eventually married a man 11 years younger than her. Good luck on it, Mrs. and Mr. Yokoyama!
