Biography

edit

Yonaga was born in Kanagawa Prefecture[1] and raised in Ushiku, Ibaraki.[3] He has an older sister who is six years older than him and a younger sister who is four years younger than him.[3] When he was in the fifth grade, his voice hardly changed. When he talked to his homeroom teacher, who knew that he liked singing, acting, and recitation, he was told about the profession of voice acting, which led him to become a voice actor.[3] He has been a member of a drama club since his second year of high school. After graduating from the voice actor vocal course at the vocational school Tokyo Media Academy (now the voice actor training course at Tokyo Seiyu Academy), he entered School Duo, a voice actor training school attached to Ken Production, as a 6th year student. He then made his debut in his third year at Ken Production, when he was entrusted to the office.[3]

In 2006, he made his voice acting debut as a student in the OVA Cluster Edge Secret Episode. In 2007, he played the role of Shingo Suwa in Gigantic Formula and Ren Mihashi in Big Windup!, his first leading role in an anime.[3] In 2008, Yonaga won the Best Rookie award at the 2nd Seiyu Awards.[4]

In April 2011, he formed the music unit "Trignal" with Takuya Eguchi and Ryōhei Kimura.[5] On December 12, 2012, he made his CD debut as "Trignal" with the mini-album "PARTY" under the Kiramune label.[6] He has also formed a unit called "BRAVE WING" with Yuki Kaji, and "Genki Dan" with Fumihiro Okabayashi and Yuka Nishigaki, who belong to the same agency.[7] On May 4, 2015, he announced on his Twitter page that he had married Nishigaki.[2] On July 18, 2018, he announced the birth of their first child.[8]

On November 18, 2019, his office and his Twitter announced that he would be limiting some of his activities due to treatment for dysphonia.[9][10][11]

On October 9, 2024, he announced the birth of their second child.[12]
