Biography
[edit]Mayu Iizuka, a native of Saitama Prefecture, was born on 15 April 1996.[1] While watching The Prince of Tennis anime with her older siblings, whom she described in an interview as being "from the Prince of Tennis generation", she saw that a woman was credited for a male character, and her sister told her that female voice actors are able to do characters regardless of gender, inspiring her to join the voice acting industry.[2] She was educated at Clark Memorial International High School , where she would about three hours commuting back and forth to and where she started an idol club.[2]
Her voice acting career began while she was a first-year high school student.[2] In December 2014, it was announced that she and Aya Uchida would voice the kōhai in Tamayura: Sotsugyō Shashin.[3] In April 2015, she was cast as Rina in Million Doll.[4]

In 2019, she became one of the founding members of the voice acting unit Dialogue.[7]
On 29 January 2022, she revealed that she was the "inner person" behind Yume Kotobuki (琴吹 ゆめ, Kotobuki Yume), a VTuber who became active in 2018.[8] Iizuka said that this decision was to counter the stigma of self-revealing real-life identities among VTubers.[8]
