Description
Chantal Busse is a German voice actor and speaker based in Stuttgart and Hamburg. She studied at the State University of Music and Performing Arts in Stuttgart, an education that laid the foundation for her professional career. Her work is characterized by a youthful, empathetic, and versatile voice, which she deploys across a range of media including audiobooks, radio features, commercials, video games, and dubbing for film and television.
In the realm of anime and animation dubbing, Busse has contributed her voice to several German-language adaptations. A notable example is her role as Oborozukiyo in the 1987 animated film Genji Monogatari: Die Geschichte von Prinz Genji, an adaptation of the classic literary work by Murasaki Shikibu. The German dubbed version was produced by the studio LAB SIX sound & media solutions in Heilbronn and released on DVD and Blu-ray in June 2018. Her other anime synchronization roles include providing the German voice for the character Ichigo, also known as Code 015, in the series Darling in the Franxx, and for Naaza Erisuis in DanMachi II. She also voiced characters in series such as Seven Mortal Sins, Knight's & Magic, The Anonymous Noise, and Two Car.
Beyond anime, a significant portion of Busse's career is dedicated to audiobook narration. She has recorded titles for major publishers, including works for the Der Audio Verlag and the LYX Verlag. Her narration of Forever & ever by Samantha Young and Kristen Callihan was recognized as one of the six most-listened-to audiobooks on the Bookbeat platform in 2021. She frequently collaborates with other prominent German voice actors on dual-narration projects; for instance, she narrated A Million Stars Above by Ayla Dade alongside Nicolás Artajo, and Dark Cinderella by Anya Omah with Vincent Fallow. In addition to her recorded work, Busse also performs live, appearing in readings, live radio plays, and artistic stage performances. For a period of over two years, she was also the voice of the event tips for the German radio station SWR3.
