Momoyama Ion

Description
Momoyama Ion is a pseudonym used by the Japanese voice actress and singer Juri Nagatsuma specifically for her work in adult games and anime, a common practice in the voice acting industry to separate different facets of a career. As Juri Nagatsuma, she has a substantial and well-documented career in mainstream anime and video games.

Born on October 27, 1988, in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, she is a graduate of the 11th generation of the Pro Fit Voice Actor Training School. She was formerly affiliated with Pro Fit but is now represented by the agency Raccoon Dog. She is also a singer signed to the ZERO-A label. Her mainstream career gained attention in 2013 with her first regular role as Kanna Makino in the Kyoto Animation series Tamako Market. She subsequently made her artist debut in 2014 with the single "Ienai Ice Cream."

In her mainstream work as Juri Nagatsuma, she has accumulated an extensive list of anime and video game credits. Notable anime roles include Karin Miyoshi in the Yuki Yuna is a Hero series, Satone Shichimiya in Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions, Kanna Makino in the Tamako Market franchise, and Maaya Sawashita in Magimoji Rurumo. She has also appeared in series such as Silver Spoon, The Asterisk War, Wise Man's Grandchild, Interspecies Reviewers, and The Elusive Samurai as Hikari. In the realm of video games, she is well-known for voicing Dorothea Arnault in Fire Emblem Three Houses and its spinoff Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, as well as Kūka in Princess Connect! Re:Dive.

The alias Momoyama Ion is used for projects with mature content. The most prominent example of this is her role as Ryo Fujihashi in the Fire in His Fingertips anime series. In this production, which aired in two versions, she voices the character in the "Premium" or "Complete" version, which includes more explicit content, while the standard broadcast version features a different actress. For the second season, Fire in His Fingertips 2: My Boyfriend is a Fireman, she also performed the theme song for the premium version.

Under the Momoyama Ion alias, her work is predominantly focused on specific adult-oriented projects and does not typically involve recurring collaborations with mainstream directors or studios in the way her work as Juri Nagatsuma does. Her notable achievements are primarily tied to her mainstream career, where she has built a reputation as a versatile voice actress capable of handling a wide range of roles across multiple popular franchises. Her long-running roles in series like Yuki Yuna is a Hero and her high-profile performance in a global hit like Fire Emblem Three Houses represent significant career milestones.
