- not a review just the observation that this is not interesting to me at all: two unrelated facts, both nothing special, which doesn't get better by the combination --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:13, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
- Personally I would have thought that a voice actress doing something totally unrelated to voice acting (i.e. gaming) was unusual at least. It's like, for example, if an opera singer had a day job as a dentist. It would be surprising and unusual. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:45, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
- All I'm trying to explain is that one person's interesting is some other's boring, and trying to please all will result in some limited common denominator. What I want to know about a singer is when did she performs what kind of music, and how, which is often hard enough in the few chars we have, without adding some quirky extra. If you can interest me in this particular voice actress by a hook specific to her voice acting, I'll review. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:09, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

- Also not a review but is this person even notable? They don't meet WP:NACTOR as they only have 1 significant role (not 2+) and all the sources here are interviews or casting announcements, neither of which are significant coverage and independent. Link20XX (talk) 13:19, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
- For what it's worth, [3] isn't an interview or a casting announcement. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:42, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
- It isn't sigcov though as it just mentions that she joined a larger group. Link20XX (talk) 01:17, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
- If she were a professional esports player as well as a professional voice actress, I would find that interesting. An amateur is not interesting, nor is being a school handball player. There really isn't much to the article, and it's borderline as to length, on top of the notability issues. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:53, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
