Mariya Ise

Mariya Ise (伊瀬 茉莉也, Ise Maria, born September 25, 1988 in Yokohama, Kanagawa) is a Japanese actor and voice actor affiliated with Across Entertainment. She used to be affiliated with Across Entertainment (called Bring-Up at the time). An alumnus of Toho Gakuen College of Drama and Music, fans sometimes refer to her as Riya or Ise-chan. She got married in January 2015 and has one child.

When Ise watched Princess Mononoke for the first time, she became enticed at the idea of producing works that have a lasting impact on people. She had initially wanted to take up directing until a musical producer convinced the girl that voice acting would be a more suitable profession for someone like her. To convince her parents to let her enroll in vocational school, she agreed to pay the admission fee herself using the New Year's money she had been saving since her childhood.

Having done a good variety of roles throughout the years, Ise is capable of voicing different characters ranging from boisterous boys to alluring women. She has lent her performances to Saku in Star Wars: Visions, Setsuko Sasaki in Jujutsu Kaisen, and Nanamo Ul Namo in Final Fantasy XIV.
