Akiho Sendou
Description
Akiho Sendou is a Japanese actress born on April 5, 1969, in Amagasaki, Hyogo Prefecture. She graduated from Hyogo Prefectural Takarazuka Kita High School. Sendou began her career in the entertainment industry, initially debuting as a singer in 1990 before gaining widespread recognition as a television actress.
Her most prominent and defining role came in 1991 when she was cast as Nagasaki Naoko in the highly successful and popular television drama Tokyo Love Story. This performance established her as a recognizable figure in Japanese drama. She continued to build her career with significant roles in other notable television series, such as Shikaotoko Aoniyoshi (also known as He Is Always There or Look Back at Him) in 1993 and New Flight by Night in 1999. Her filmography primarily consists of live-action television dramas, with her work spanning from the late 1980s through the 2000s.
Regarding the specific inquiry about voice acting in anime, available records indicate one credit. In the anime series 108 Ward Inside and Out: Make-Up Artist (original title: Yaoya Shohyo Ura Omote Keshoshi), which aired starting in October 1990, she provided the voice for the character Hanabi. This role represents her sole documented entry in the field of anime voice acting, as her career has been overwhelmingly focused on live-action performance. Later in her career, she also took on a voice role in the 2023 drama Bentoya-san no Omotenashi, though this is not an anime production.
In her personal life, Sendou married a scuba diving instructor in 2000 and relocated her base of activities to Hokkaido. She has two daughters, born in 2008 and 2011. She has also taken on the role of supporting ambassador for the Hokkaido Fisheries Cooperative Women's Association.
