Michiko Neya

Michiko Neya is a Japanese voice actress based in Takefu, Fukui Prefecture. She was affiliated with Arts Vision and works as a freelancer. She is one of the more well known veteran voice actresses recognized for her sweet, but dignified voice, which makes her the go-girl for either the mother or Cool Big Sis characters. The difference is that Neya's roles seems to deviate more to the side of action rather than being conservative. She was educated at the Katsuta Seiyuu Institute (also known as the Katsuta Voice Actor's Academy). Some of her major roles in anime include the title character in New Cutie Honey, Jun the Swan in Gatchaman 94, Ritsuko Takahashi in Hell Teacher Nube, Melissa Mao in Full Metal Panic!, Riza Hawkeye in Fullmetal Alchemist, Vinsmoke Reiju in the One Piece series, Dai Heart in Sailor Moon S, Chie Sagamiono in You're Under Arrest, Irene "Rally" Vincent in Gunsmith Cats, Jun Tao in Shaman King and Shaman King 2021, and Doll Izumi in Super Doll Licca-chan.
