Maaya Sakamoto, who has been active as a voice actress and singer for many years, has announced the top 10 most popular and well-known characters she has played!
She is known for her wide range of acting skills, playing not only women but also boys, so which role is her masterpiece?
No.10:Echidna
The “Witch of Greed” will appear in the second season of “Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World” airing in the summer of 2020.
She is a mass of curiosity who desires everything in this world and calls herself “the rightful owner of knowledge”.
He is one of the few people who know about the “return to death” of the protagonist, Subaru, and attempts to get in touch with him to satisfy his desire for knowledge.
Since her voice acting debut as a child, Ms. Sakamoto has played a variety of main characters, but there are many characters like Echidna who appear in the middle of the story and drive the story.
Scheherazade in Magi also started her appearance in the second season.
It is because of her acting ability and the trust of the anime staff that she can fit in well even when she joins the story from the middle, and such roles naturally increase.

It is a humanoid weapon developed as a weapon for shadow suppression. At first, it baffles the protagonists with its machine-like thought patterns and strange behavior, but it gradually acquires a human touch.
