Manaka Iwami

Manaka Iwami (石見 舞菜香, Iwami Manaka, born April 30, 1998 in Saitama) is a Japanese voice actor affiliated with Pro-Fit. She first entered the dubbing industry in 2016, making her one of the more recent faces in the field. Her nickname with fans is Manati.

During her middle school years, Iwami wanted to take up voice acting as a career after watching Ai Kayano's inspirational performance in Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day. To compensate for her innate awkwardness, she wanted to get a head start by applying for voice acting courses early on to the point of refusing to attend high school if her father did not grant his approval.

Iwami eventually landed her first leading role in Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms which also featured her role model Kayano as a co-star. In time, she became one of the winners for the best new actress category during the 13th Seiyu Awards.

Some of Iwami's hobbies are walking, reading, and moving her ears. She is also skilled at playing both the piano and tuba. A few of her roles include Ukogi in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Amber in Genshin Impact, and Chiemi in Wonder Egg Priority.
