Sora Tokui

Tokui Sora was born on December 26, 1989 in Minamibōsō City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan. Her blood type is O and her zodiac sign is Capricorn. Her most commonly-used voice actress nickname is "Soramaru". She voices Yazawa Nico in Love Live!.

Her call-and-response during concerts begins with a variant of "Sore dewa mina-san go isshoni", followed by a simultaneous "Nico Nico Nii~" with the audience. During the 5th live, she added the secondary line "Dai ginga uchuu?", to which the audience responds "Number one!". This is a reference to Season 2 Episode 4 where Nico proclaims herself the Number 1 Idol in the Universe.

Background
Her parents work as karate-practitioners and she has a younger brother.

Tokui Sora graduated from Dwango Creative School, a voice-acting/vocalist training school operated by MAGES. Inc. Starting from December 2009, she has been a member of the singer group Milky Holmes (alongside Mimori Suzuko), which consists of the four main voice actresses in the media franchise Tantei Opera Milky Holmes. Starting from 2011, her 4koma Mahou Shoujo Jitaku-chan began serialization in Otapoke magazine.

Personality & Hobbies
Her favorite foods include Pepsi Nex, white rice, salmon and meat. Her disliked foods include boiled eggs, tofu and tomato juice.

She prefers to play as a male protagonist instead of a female one in games with gender choices such as Pokémon. It is likely due to this fact that she has been cast in many tomboyish roles where her characters use masculine pronouns to refer to oneself.

A self-proclaimed otaku, Tokui Sora is a huge fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion, and in particular the character Asuka Langley Soryu which she has cosplayed in multiple occasions.
