Person: Nanri Yuuka

Nanri Yuuka (born March 13, 1984 in Nagasaki, Japan), commonly referred to as Yuuka, is a seiyuu and also a known Japanese pop singer. She is contracted to Space Craft Entertainment of Space Craft Group.

Yuuka Nanri first debuted on NHK's Utatte Odoronpa (うたってオドロンパ) (an educational programme) in 1995, as a child star.

In 1997, she joined Minami Aoyama Shoujo Kageki Dan (南青山少女歌劇団, Nanshou), a stage group for young girls as one of its seventh generation members, and began acting in musicals and other theatrical performances. She quit the group in August 2001.

In 2001, she also debuted as a seiyuu in the Japanese version of The Powerpuff Girls as Bubbles. After that, she officially started her seiyuu activities as the lead of Gunslinger Girl. In late 2003, tiaraway, a fixed-term seiyuu duo consisting of Nanri and fellow Japanese singer Saeko Chiba, was formed. After releasing three singles and an album, they disbanded on March 6, 2005 after its first (and final) live concert, both wanting to go separate paths. Currently, she is a vocalist of Yuki Kajiura's "FictionJunction" project.

FictionJunction Yuuka is a duo with Yuki Kajiura, a famed anime music composer who writes and produces all their music. FictionJunction YUUKA achieved fame and attention from the media with songs such as "Akatsuki no Kuruma" (暁の車) and "Honoh no Tobira" (焔の扉) which were used as insert songs in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and its sequel Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny respectively. Nanri also performed most of the vocal tracks featured in Madlax (soundtracked by Kajiura), such as Margaret, Cradle and Madlax, in addition to the opening and ending themes recorded by FictionJunction Yuuka.

In 2006, she was selected to be the main character of the musical ANGEL GATE ~Haru no Yokan~ (ANGEL GATE～春の予感～). The musical had four performances in total, from April 13 to April 16 of the same year. Because of this, she was not able to voice act for Karen Ichijou from the second season of the anime School Rumble, which also broadcasted in April. She also graduated from university with a major in vocal music that year in March.

She held her first solo concert, entitled Premium Live 2007, as FictionJunction Yuuka in 2007, on February 8 and February 15. It was announced at the concert that there will be another showing of ANGEL GATE.
