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 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.

In 2011, her 4koma Mahou Shoujo Jitaku-chan began serialization in Otapoke magazine.

In April 2012, she was appointed as the tourism ambassador for her hometown of Minamibōsō in Southern Chiba Prefecture.

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

As older footage shows, she formerly was in the habit of referring to herself using the masculine pronoun "boku," revealed via interviews to be unwittingly cultivated through practicing her lines for Yuzurizaki Nero repeatedly.

For undisclosed reasons, Tokui is very deterred by going down flights of stairs, to the point where she has claimed she would prefer sliding down a pole over taking stairs during a performance.

Jitaku-chan, the main character of Mahou Shoujo Jitaku-chan, is based largely on the personality and experiences of Tokui, a self-admitted "home security guard" (自宅警備員, a term used to describe stay-at-home nerds).

Tokui is a huge fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion, and in particular the character Asuka Langley Soryu which she has cosplayed in multiple occasions. She credits Miyamura Yuuko, the voice actress for Asuka, as the inspiration for her to become a voice actress herself. On 6 February 2015, she displayed a screenshot showing her donation to a crowdfunding project to send a replica of the Spear of Longinus to the moon.

Trivia

 * Due to her long working history with Mimori Suzuko, the pair enjoy a tight friendship. They often celebrate their birthdays together with other voice-actresses from Milky Holmes.
 * She also is a heavy fan of the NicoMaki pairing alongside Pile, though her relationship with the other voice actress do not appear to be as close as to other members of the team, possibly a result of a lack of collaboration opportunities. Nevertheless, BiBi as a unit have said they get along well during the interview compiled in the 5th Live's event guide, and both Nanjou Yoshino and Pile address and refer to Tokui by her given name directly without any honorifics or suffixes, showing their familiarity.
 * The images of Nico and Maki displayed on the moving stages at the 5th Live's performance of Zurui yo Magnetic today were drawn by Tokui and Pile respectively.
 * Tokui is the only member to have consistently addressed Nanjou and Uchida Aya as "Nanjou-san" and "Uchida-san" respectively, out of respect for their seniority to her in the voice acting industry.
 * Tokui also voices Applejack (アップルジャック) in the Japanese dub of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
 * Tokui reviews her JP Wikipedia article from time to time, and has pointed out inaccuracies in it; however, she does not seem to have edited the article despite noting its inaccuracies.
