[Eng Sub] Interview with Manaka Iwami on her role as Akane Kurokawa - Oshi no Ko

A top-tier seiyuu for a top-tier character. But I'm still one of the Kanabros.

She's Manaka Iwami, a voice actor for Raccoon Dog; an agency made from the remnants of the former Pro-Fit. Her nickname is Manatee, though I personally use Mana-chan. She won the Rookie Seiyuu Award in 2019 alongside Tomori Kusunoki, Coco Hayashi, and Kaede Hondo.

Her best-known roles outside Akane are probably Tohru Honda from Fruit Basket, Mahiru Shiina from The Angel Next Door, and Maquia from Sayoasa.

True to what she says in this video, she mostly just retweet or share content related to animes she voices in. But she does occasionally post her own photos with comments, as well as tweet her own thoughts every so often.
