Nanami Atsugi (厚木 那奈美, Atsugi Nanami, born 11 October 1997) is a Japanese voice actress associated with 81 Produce [2] and Avex Pictures. [3] [4] She is best known for voicing Itsuka Atsugi in Wake Up, Girls! New Chapter! and Rinka Aoba in Kiratto Pri Chan.
Nanami Atsugi was born on 11 October 1997 [5] [6] in Nagano Prefecture. [2] As a child, she admired Petit Charat, a major character in Di Gi Charat, [6] [7] [8] and during elementary school, [8] she learned there was a voice actor playing Pichiko, and thought that if she became a voice actor she could become Petit Charat. [6] Afterwards, when she looked at Iris, the band best known for the PriPara anime, she came to think "I want to be a singing and dancing voice actor". [6]
After graduating from high school, she considered going to a voice acting school, but consulted with her parents before going to college. [9] She gave up midway in the seiyu path, but as a college freshman, [10] she checked out an audition that was taking place because she had leisure time during her winter break. [9] She learned that it was the avex×81produce Wake Up, Girls! AUDITION 3rd Anison Vocal Audition and, having liked both Iris and Wake Up, Girls!, [9] was inspired by the words "Your Dream Awakens" in the audition advertisement. [11] [12] She participated in the final audition. [9]
Atsugi was one of three people who passed the audition in 2017 out of 2,000 applicants, along with Coco Hayashi and Yuuka Morishima, and they formed the three-person unit Run Girls, Run!. [13] Her first impression from the other two members of Run Girls! Run was " Nogizaka46 came", which was thought to be graceful and young, though Atsugi denied that this was the case. [11] However, the members said that it is better to recommend the place where the atmosphere is a young lady. [9]
Her voice acting debut was in the Wake Up, Girls! spinoff New Chapter, [10] starring as Itsuka Atsuki. [14] After her debut, she was performing as a voice actress in tandem with the university. [15] In 2018, she starred as Rinka Aoba in Kiratto Pri Chan, which she definitely wanted to be involved in as a voice actor. [16] All three members of Run Girls, Run! were involved as voice actors and theme song singers. [17]
She had spent more than ten years in classic ballet classes since she was three years old. [18] She quit ballet due to a foot injury, but continues to dance in other genres, mimicking dances from Wake Up, Girls! and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. [12] Before her debut, she also posted a video called Odottemita (踊ってみた, lit. I tried dancing). [12] The only thing that she excels in is dancing, [11] and she choreographed her choreography to make her dance appeal at auditions. [12]
Voice actress Mayu Mineda was her classmate in junior high school, and the two have co-starred in the radio show Maji! Anilive. [19] [20] [7] Mineda was a classmate of Atsugi for three years, [19]、and they danced together as dance companions. [20]
