Biography
editMayu Mineda, a native of Nagano Prefecture, was born on 28 November 1997.[1][2] As a junior high school student, she was head of her school's art club, went to school with future voice actress Nanami Atsugi, discovered an interest in anime while watching MegaMan NT Warrior, bought a character CD of Azusa Nakano (the main protagonist of K-On) and felt that two of the characters Aoi Yūki was voicing – Diane from The Seven Deadly Sins and Madoka Kaname from Puella Magi Madoka Magica – "fit perfectly together" despite having "completely different personalities".[3][4] She became interested in voice acting because of her interest in anime and acting, the latter of which was inspired by her family's visits to Shiki Theatre Company musicals.[3]

Mineda voices Meguru Hachimiya in The Idolmaster Shiny Colors, a spin-off of The Idolmaster franchise.[1] As part of the franchise, she performed in several of Illumination Stars' singles, two of which reached the Top 5 in the Oricon Singles Chart.[10]
