The most popular female voice actresses according to female anime fans


Voice actresses have their own personal fan base and they often interact with fans either online through their own blogs or at live events. However, the majority of a voice actress’s fan base is male.

1 Yui Ogura- 536 votes
Hinata Hakamada from Ro-Kyu-Bu!, Athena from Campione!, Tamaki Gokou from OreImo and Tsukiko Tsukakishi from Hentai Ouji


There you have it, Yui Ogura’s sweet, childish loli voice has even won over other females as she takes the #1 spot on the list with 536 votes.

Because this poll was directed to the female audience, it isn’t very surprising that most of the female voice actresses near the top of the list have voiced MALE characters, and not just male characters, but bishounen male characters while some have even been known for voicing androgynous female characters like Megumi Ogata.

Some voice acting legends also made it to the list like Nobuyo Ooyama who voices both Doraemon and Monokuma as well as Masako Nozawa who voices Son Goku. Yes, the MANLY Son Goku was originally voiced by a woman in the Japanese dub, mostly because Son Goku started out as a kid in the early stages of the legendary anime.

Well, there you have it, Anime One’s most popular female voice actresses among other women. Certainly, if this poll was aimed towards GUYS or both men and women, the result would have been very different.

Do you agree with Anime One’s poll?
