Ayaka Suwa

Ayaka Suwa (諏訪 彩花, Suwa Ayaka, born May 27, 1988 in Nisshin, Aichi Prefecture) is a Japanese voice actress from Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. She is represented by the agency Arts Vision.^[1][2] She has loved watching anime since she was a child, and realized the joy of acting in a Musical theatre she did in elementary school. She first learned about voice acting when she fell in love with Ryoma Echizen from The Prince of Tennis in junior high school. She was fascinated by the breadth of voice acting work, and after being involved in theater in high school and college, and with the encouragement of my friends around her, she decided to become a voice actor. Since there were not many training schools or vocational schools for voice actors in Nagoya, where she was born, she entered the Japan Narration Acting Institute, which had a school in Nagoya. She took lessons once a week while attending university. After working at the Japan Narration Acting Institute, she joined her current agency.
