Biography

[edit]

Maeda was born in Kitakyushu on April 25, 1996.[1] As a child she was interested in fantasy, and she would write stories while she was in elementary school. During her high school years, she had an interest in music, and was a member of a band that covered songs by LiSA, Chatmonchy, and other artists.[2] Her interest in voice acting began when she read the manga Voice Over! Seiyu Academy; she was also influenced by her enjoyment of plays from an early age.[2]

In 2016, Maeda participated in a voice acting audition, where she won the grand prize. She began her acting career the following year after becoming affiliated with the talent agency Amuse.[1] Among her earliest roles were Aria Futaba in the anime television series Aikatsu Stars! and Nice Nature in the multimedia franchise Uma Musume Pretty Derby.[2][3] Nice Nature was the first role she got via an audition.[4] In 2018, she played Mari Tachibana in the anime series Back Street Girls and Selka Zuberg in Sword Art Online: Alicization.[5][6] In 2019, she played Yuzu Midorikawa in Kandagawa Jet Girls.[7] In 2020, she played Yomi Takeda in the anime series Tamayomi and Shizuku Ōsaka in Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club.[8][9]

On November 25, 2022, she made her solo singer debut under Amuse Inc. with her debut single "Hikatta Koin ga Shimesu Hou" (光ったコインが示す方, Where the Glimmering Coin Leads), releasing on March 15, 2023. The song was used at the opening theme song for the anime, Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement.[10][11][12] In 2023, she and Miku Itō voiced an instructional video for the Pokémon Home service.[13] In 2024 she voiced Lilysa Amano in 2.5 Dimensional Seduction, also singing the series' ending themes with her co-stars.[14][15]
