plotamariatoriSeriously setting to work on R:3 now. Hashing out some profiles. Some are only half-done, some aren't done at all. They'll get there.
Name: Aizawa Tsumiki (相沢津美貴)
Nickname: Batsu (ばつ), Tsu-chan (つちゃん)
Birthday: April 22nd
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Height: 5'3"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Priestess Mia)
Formerly a theatre actress before a car accident that left her partially disabled, she turned her talents to voice acting instead, unwilling to fully leave the industry that she enjoys so much. She's most prominently known for playing sternly authoritative roles, as she's so good at them, but she's got a wide range of experience that lets her shine in just about any role she takes on. When offered the role of Mia after auditioning, she jumped at the chance, considering giving a voice to the serene and mysterious priestess a challenge she was excited to try her hand at. She's also the daughter of Aizawa Hidenori, a prominent CC Corp stockholder, though she tries to distance herself from that as much as she can, not wanting people to think her being chosen was a result of someone playing favourites.
Name: Aoi Takuya (蒼井拓也)
Nickname: Taku-san (拓さん), Taku-nii (拓にい), Takkun (たっくん)
Birthday: May 22nd
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Height: 6'
Role: Collaborative VA (voices of Nano Edgewalker, Zephyr)
A veteran voice actor who's highly in demand for the unusually broad range of his voice. Able to take on just about any role from young teens to mature adults, he's lent his skills to countless productions, and his coworkers like to joke that anything he has a role in is made good simply by association; he's also fond of using different voices in his daily life, much to the amusement and occasional chagrin of those around him. Outside of work, he's an avid reader and loves to cook, and occasionally plays online games when he has some free time, though he's the first to admit he's not that great at them and would rather just watch others play. Though he'll never admit it outright, he's terrified of storms. He's the good friend and roommate of Azakami Shun, having known him since their childhood when they lived next door to one another.
Name: Azakami Shun (阿座上駿)
Nickname: Azacchi (阿座っち)
Birthday: August 7th
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Height: 5'5"
Role: Graphic designer, VA (male PC voice)
One of the newest additions to CC Corp's motley crew, energetic and helpful with a passion for graphics work. Unlike most employees, he didn't enter as an intern, but was scouted specifically for graphic design due to CC Corp's contract with the design school he attended. While his work definitely has a certain flair to it and is immediately recognisable, he still tends to favour far more understated and elegant designs than certain other graphic designers, which has led to him jokingly being called the "anti-Piros". He's in a sort-of relationship with Shimokawa Takahiro, the two of them having hit it off during recording sessions for the PC voices, though he'll deny it vehemently if anyone brings it up. He's also good friends and roommates with his childhood friend, Aoi Takuya.
Name: Eguchi Kousuke (江口浩輔)
Nickname: Eguchin (えぐちん)
Birthday: May 16th
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Height: 5'10"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Creator)
A television and theatre actor who also does some voice work, having a soft and slightly rough voice that's been described as quite charming. Though he prefers physical acting, finding the challenge of using only his voice instead of gestures and expressions a little too taxing to do all the time, he still genuinely enjoys his voice roles and tries to put as much effort as he can into them. As a result, he's developed quite a following of fans who are always glad to hear him voicing a new character. Outside of work, he rather enjoys bike rides and spending time with his friends and family, and plays tennis with his younger brother Naoto every weekend.
Name: Enoki Makoto (榎木誠斗)
Nickname: Mako (マコ), Enokin (えのきん)
Birthday: November 12th
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Height: 5'9"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Apollo)
A voice actor who just recently returned to Japan, having spent a few years in Sweden to take care of his mother, who was seeking treatment there for a severe illness. Somewhat shy and endowed with a youthful and gentle voice, he's often cast in "underclassman" sort of roles, but he honestly prefers that, enjoying the effort it takes to make those characters stand out just as much as any lead role. He's very fond of saying that it isn't the role that matters so much as the talent that goes into it, a sentiment embodied wholeheartedly in the entirety of his work. When he isn't working, he enjoys watching television and spending time with his friends. He's the cousin of Oreki Satomi, though the two of them don't get to spend much time together outside of work, both being terribly busy.
Name: Fujiwara Yukitaka (藤原幸孝)
Nickname: Yukkin (ゆっきん)
Birthday: August 4th
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7"
Role: Scenario writer
A quiet and friendly young man with aspirations of becoming a novelist. He also occasionally does voice work for adult games, under the name Saitou Azuma, but tends to keep that a secret from most people. He entered CC Corp's internship program eight months ago and quickly carved out a niche for himself developing and writing scenarios for R:3 (and other, less popular CC Corp offerings), and it's safe to say many stories wouldn't be nearly so expansive without his assistance. He has a bit of a crush on Matoi, but respects the fact that she's not interested, instead pouring out his feelings into his writing - in all honesty, that's probably what makes his romantic scenarios as good as they are.
Name: Hirasawa Kikue (平澤菊衣)
Nickname: Hirapyon (ひらぴょん)
Birthday: October 26th
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Height: 5'1"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Katerine, female PC voice)
A fairly new voice actress, having had only a very small handful of major roles before being cast as Katerine and one of the female PC voice options. Brash and excitable, she can be a little overwhelming to those around her at times, but in general her cheerful attitude tends to make her fairly well-liked, and she's really pretty easygoing. She's good friends with Teramoto Yuzuka and Yanagi Sarika, the three of them having attended voice classes together, and she's grateful for the opportunity to work with them again. In her spare time, she loves to play online games, and while it's confirmed that she plays R:3, her character information isn't known to the general public.
Name: Hosoyama Mei (細山芽衣)
Nickname: Hoso-chan (ほそちゃん), Meimei (めいめい)

Name: Kamiya Souji (神谷総司)
Nickname: Souyan (そうやん)
Birthday: January 28th
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Fazer Shiva, male PC voice)
A voice actor who's most happy in background roles, preferring not to stand out from the crowd too much.
Name: Kitagawa Shion (来川詩音)
Nickname: Utane (うたね), Shicchan (シっちゃん)
Birthday: February 7th
Age: 30
Gender: Female
Height: 5'4"
Role: Collaborative VA (voices of Kei & Kaku, Nephele)
A voice actress well known for her deep and gentle voice, often cast in the roles of young boys and mature women. Having taken a bit of a hiatus from voice work due to health issues, her return to work was at CC Corp's open voice auditions, and she was pleased to earn two different roles even despite being comparatively out of practice. Outside the studio, she works part-time writing articles for a popular women's magazine, and just recently married Suzumura Atsushi, a computer technician who was her childhood sweetheart. While she enjoys the story of R:3 and all the work that's gone into it, she prefers not to play, online games not really being her field of interest.
Name: Kobayashi Sakia (小林咲亜)
Nickname: Kochou (胡蝶)
Birthday: July 24th
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5"
Role: Sound effects director, VA (voice of Nena)
The daughter of a concert musician and a sound technician, actively having pursued musical interests from a very young age. She's said before that her first toy was an old soundboard given to her by her father, and that's probably what set the stage for her to follow the path she has in life.
Name: Kusatsu Matoi (草津纏)
Nickname: Matoi-chan (纏ちゃん), Kusacchan (草っちゃん)
Birthday: February 17th
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Height: 5'
Role: Scenario writer, VA (female PC voice)
The newest CC Corp employee, currently working as an intern alongside Fujiwara Yukitaka. She'd originally planned to attend a university several hours away, but had to put that plan on hold due to illness in the family that required her to stay close to home, and when the internship program opened back up, she decided she may as well take the opportunity; quickly discovering she had a knack for creating elaborate backstories, she settled right in as a scenario writer, finding it surprisingly enjoyable and a good way to forget about her daily stresses for a little while. While she's aware Yukitaka has a small crush on her, she's decidedly not interested in a relationship, and she's glad he accepts that and won't try to change her mind. She's one of only a few people to play a Tota in R:3, finding the small race unbearably adorable.
Name: Morimura Akira (守村明)
Nickname: Moririn (もりりん), Mori-san (守さん)
Birthday: November 2nd
Age: 28
Gender: Male

Name: Osano Youhei (小佐野洋平)
Nickname: You-kun (洋くん)
Birthday: March 25th
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Height: 5'11"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Amano, male PC voice)
A new addition to the voice acting industry, already making quite a name for himself due to the sweet and polite voice that puts him in high demand for otome games. He hasn't yet learned how to handle that popularity, though, and can get a bit panicky if recognised by fans outside of work, so he tends to keep to himself and greatly values his privacy.
Name: Renjou Keita (連上啓太)
Nickname: Ren-kun (連くん), Keitan (啓たん) (by Takahiro)
Birthday: September 12th
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Height: 5'8"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Ellis)
A voice actor who's rather popular for his surprisingly youthful and passionate voice. Having wanted to get into the industry since he was very young, he enjoys his work wholeheartedly, and makes sure to be very appreciative to the fans who support him and make what he does possible. He has a policy of keeping his public life as separate as possible from his private one, though, so outside of work, he can often come off as indifferent and even rather cold at times. Even so, he's not the type to outright snub anyone and makes it a point to at least be distantly friendly to anyone who happens to recognise him. In the past, he's often been partnered with Shimokawa Takahiro for various roles, and though they rarely work together anymore, the two of them remain on good terms and can often be found enjoying each other's company. He's also rather amused by, and fully supportive of, Takahiro's "relationship" with Azakami Shun.

Nickname: Sada-san (定さん), Mittsu (みっつ)
Birthday: June 7th

Name: Serizawa Toki (芹沢十紀)

Birthday: January 5th
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Height: 5'4"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Aurora, female PC voice)
A bright and energetic voice actress with a talent for mimicking different accents, making her highly sought after despite her relative newness to the field. Ever since R:1, it's been her dream to someday have a role in some version of The World, and she's ecstatic that she was able to finally reach that goal. Outside of work, she's a very competitive gamer, and is in fact one of the few female members of the infamous gaming group Team Vortex, though she hides her true gender behind a pseudonym to avoid harassment. She's also often at odds with her parents, who are constantly telling her she'll never find someone to marry if she doesn't start acting more feminine, completely ignoring the fact that she doesn't want to settle down any time soon - if ever. She does have a secret crush on Aoi Takuya, though.
Name: Shimazaki Yayoi (島崎夜宵)
Nickname: Ya-chan (やちゃん), Zakki-chan (ザッキちゃん)
Birthday: July 17th
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5"
Role: BGM composer
A quiet and polite young woman who's been deeply interested in music for many years, after going nearly deaf as a child and having multiple surgeries to eventually correct the condition affecting her hearing. Turning this interest into a desire to compose music of her own, she quickly became sought after by multiple companies for her talent, eventually deciding to take an offer from CC Corp simply because she liked the looks of what they were producing. She works well with others and values any input on how she might improve her compositions, wholeheartedly believing that the best music is that which comes from multiple minds. For a while, she had a rather embarrassing (to her, at least) crush on Yanagi Takeru, and is relieved that it's finally managed to fade. Outside of work, she and Kobayashi Sakia can often be found discussing music together, and are tentatively planning to form a collaborative composition unit in their spare time.
Name: Shimokawa Takahiro (霜川隆尋)
Nickname: Shimo-kun (霜くん), Taka-chan (隆ちゃん) (by Keita)
Birthday: June 13th
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Height: 5'10"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Lucien, male PC voice)
A very popular voice actor who also hosts In The Game, a weekly radio show on the subject of online gaming. He tends to seem overly serious and reserved most of the time, but he's really got a wicked sense of humour and a playful side that he generally only shows to those he's fairly close to. He also has a tendency to mentor the younger voice actors he works with, which makes him a well-liked figure in the industry. Having become quite friendly with Azakami Shun during recording for the PC voices, they're rumoured to be in a relationship of sorts, but he chooses to neither confirm or deny this fact. He's also good friends with Renjou Keita, the two of them having worked together often in the past.
Name: Tachibana Shouta (橘翔太)
Nickname: Shoutan (翔たん), Tacchin (たっちん)
Birthday: August 11th
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Height: 5'9"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice/vocals of Mizar, opening/ending/insert song vocals)
A very popular singer who's recently begun to gain some popularity as a net idol as well, especially beloved by female fans due to his cute voice and exceptional range. He was originally tapped by CC Corp to serve as Mizar, a temporary partner for Alcor for one event, but ended up landing that role permanently when fan reaction was unexpectedly (at least to CC Corp) positive. He tends to be rather private outside performances, probably as a result of being so popular, but he's been spotted out and about recently in the company of Yanagi Takeru, leading to quite a bit of speculation about possible collaborative projects outside R:3. It's said that he plays R:3, but there's no information available to the public on who or what his character is.
Name: Takeshima Setsuna (武島刹那)
Nickname: Setsu-kun (刹くん), Takeshii (たけしい)
Birthday: December 6th
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Height: 5'6"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Saiph, male PC voice)
A part-time voice actor who takes on small roles for money while also attending university. Having been very fond of R:2, he decided to enter the open auditions for R:3 when he heard about them, expecting to land only a bit part at most, but finding himself pleasantly surprised to end up cast for both a PC voice and the major role of Saiph. Formerly rather fragile, both mentally and physically, and unwilling to trust most people due to a chaotic home life, he only managed to start straightening himself out shortly after turning 17, thanks to the intervention of a close friend who arranged for him to be placed in a far more stable situation; up until then, he hadn't known what he wanted to do with his life, and it was only on a suggestion from that same friend that he decided to pursue voice acting and discovered he quite enjoyed it. Though he still tends to be reserved around most people, he's really quite a kind person who likes to help others whenever he can.
Name: Teramoto Yuzuka (寺本柚香)
Nickname: Yuzu-tan (柚たん)
Birthday: April 8th
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Height: 5'2"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Lycoris)
A shy young woman who's new to the voice acting industry, having landed the part of Lycoris as her first major role. She's known Yanagi Sarika and Hirasawa Kikue for several years now, the three of them having attended voice classes together, and was pleased to end up working with the both of them again for R:3. Though she tends to be quiet and a little reticent around people she doesn't know, which can make her come off as cold, she's still a friendly and helpful person who genuinely cares about her supporters, and has attained a small following of devoted fans for her dedication to making sure every last fan feels appreciated. She loves to read, and can almost always be found with a book at hand.
Name: Uemura Akane (上村紅音)
Nickname: Ue-chan (上ちゃん), Akachin (あかちん)
Birthday: November 27th
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Height: 5'6"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Asya)
A voice actress who does the great majority of her work in adult games and animation, under the name Tsuma Shizuku, but also takes on more conservative roles every so often just for a change of pace. She's worked with Fujiwara Yukitaka quite a bit in the past, and while she enjoys working with him and wishes he'd do more in their shared industry, she understands his reasons for shying away somewhat and doesn't try to pressure him into it.
Name: Urakata Ichika (浦方衣千夏)
Nickname: Urako (うらこ), Icchi (いっち)
Birthday: December 3rd
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Height: 5'1"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Sera)
A voice actress who's mostly famous for motherly-type roles, having a warm and lovingly stern sort of voice which she attributes to being one of the oldest children in a very large family. Her original intent wasn't to become a voice actress, but one of her sisters convinced her she ought to give it a try several years back, and she proved talented enough to make a decent career out of it. Outside of work, she's very friendly and more than willing to lend a hand to anyone who might need her help, though she does have a tendency to overwork herself quite a bit and has a bit of trouble figuring out when she needs to take a break from what she's doing. She was Mutsuno Sako's mentor when the younger woman was just starting out in the voice world, and the two of them are still close friends.
Name: Yanagi Sarika (柳木沙李香)
Nickname: Sari-chan (沙李ちゃん), Sarii (サリィ)
Birthday: May 14th
Age: 20

Height: 5'1"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Goddess Harvestasha, female PC voice, insert song vocals)
Takeru's younger sister, a popular singer who's always wanted to try her hand at voice acting and finally got her chance in R:3. At the recommendation of her brother, she entered CC Corp's open auditions, and ended up being chosen to voice Harvestasha as well as lend vocals to the goddess' theme song. Generally a polite and cheerful person, she throws herself wholeheartedly into everything she does, sometimes to the point of overworking herself. She's good friends with Teramoto Yuzuka and Hirasawa Kikue, who she attended voice classes with in the past and who also ended up auditioning for voice roles. She has a habit of humming quietly to herself when she's really concentrating on something.
Name: Yanagi Takeru (柳木健)
Nickname: Takkyun (たっきゅん), Yanagin (やなぎん)
Birthday: December 20th
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7"
Role: Programmer, VA (voice/vocals of Alcor, insert song vocals)
A long-time employee of CC Corp, still just as quiet and mostly uncertain as he's ever been, though he's finally managed to shed his tendency to end up on top of filing cabinets or under desks when someone surprises him. He's also the talent and amazing voice behind the net singer Alcor, whose immense popularity led to him being included in R:3 as a virtual idol. Close friends with the Kinoshita twins, he can often be found having fun with the two of them when he's not working, although of late he's also been spotted enjoying the company of the singer Tachibana Shouta, who performs as Alcor's idol partner Mizar. He was the one who suggested his younger sister Sarika, an equally popular singer and aspiring voice actor, should audition for a role in R:3, and he's incredibly proud of her for landing the role of Harvestasha.

A voice actress well known for her deep and gentle voice, often cast in the roles of young boys and mature women. Having taken a bit of a hiatus from voice work due to health issues, her return to work was at CC Corp's open voice auditions, and she was pleased to earn two different roles even despite being comparatively out of practice. Outside the studio, she works part-time writing articles for a popular women's magazine, and just recently married Suzumura Atsushi, a computer technician who was her childhood sweetheart. While she enjoys the story of R:3 and all the work that's gone into it, she prefers not to play, online games not really being her field of interest.

Role: Scenario writer, VA (female PC voice)
The newest CC Corp employee, currently working as an intern alongside Fujiwara Yukitaka. She'd originally planned to attend a university several hours away, but had to put that plan on hold due to illness in the family that required her to stay close to home, and when the internship program opened back up, she decided she may as well take the opportunity; quickly discovering she had a knack for creating elaborate backstories, she settled right in as a scenario writer, finding it surprisingly enjoyable and a good way to forget about her daily stresses for a little while. While she's aware Yukitaka has a small crush on her, she's decidedly not interested in a relationship, and she's glad he accepts that and won't try to change her mind. She's one of only a few people to play a Tota in R:3, finding the small race unbearably adorable.

Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Amano, male PC voice)
A new addition to the voice acting industry, already making quite a name for himself due to the sweet and polite voice that puts him in high demand for otome games. He hasn't yet learned how to handle that popularity, though, and can get a bit panicky if recognised by fans outside of work, so he tends to keep to himself and greatly values his privacy.

Birthday: September 12th
Age: 32

Height: 5'8"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Ellis)
A voice actor who's rather popular for his surprisingly youthful and passionate voice. Having wanted to get into the industry since he was very young, he enjoys his work wholeheartedly, and makes sure to be very appreciative to the fans who support him and make what he does possible. He has a policy of keeping his public life as separate as possible from his private one, though, so outside of work, he can often come off as indifferent and even rather cold at times. Even so, he's not the type to outright snub anyone and makes it a point to at least be distantly friendly to anyone who happens to recognise him. In the past, he's often been partnered with Shimokawa Takahiro for various roles, and though they rarely work together anymore, the two of them remain on good terms and can often be found enjoying each other's company. He's also rather amused by, and fully supportive of, Takahiro's "relationship" with Azakami Shun.

Gender: Female
Height: 5'4"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Aurora, female PC voice)
A bright and energetic voice actress with a talent for mimicking different accents, making her highly sought after despite her relative newness to the field. Ever since R:1, it's been her dream to someday have a role in some version of The World, and she's ecstatic that she was able to finally reach that goal. Outside of work, she's a very competitive gamer, and is in fact one of the few female members of the infamous gaming group Team Vortex, though she hides her true gender behind a pseudonym to avoid harassment. She's also often at odds with her parents, who are constantly telling her she'll never find someone to marry if she doesn't start acting more feminine, completely ignoring the fact that she doesn't want to settle down any time soon - if ever. She does have a secret crush on Aoi Takuya, though.

Height: 5'5"
Role: BGM composer
A quiet and polite young woman who's been deeply interested in music for many years, after going nearly deaf as a child and having multiple surgeries to eventually correct the condition affecting her hearing. Turning this interest into a desire to compose music of her own, she quickly became sought after by multiple companies for her talent, eventually deciding to take an offer from CC Corp simply because she liked the looks of what they were producing. She works well with others and values any input on how she might improve her compositions, wholeheartedly believing that the best music is that which comes from multiple minds. For a while, she had a rather embarrassing (to her, at least) crush on Yanagi Takeru, and is relieved that it's finally managed to fade. Outside of work, she and Kobayashi Sakia can often be found discussing music together, and are tentatively planning to form a collaborative composition unit in their spare time.

Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Lucien, male PC voice)
A very popular voice actor who also hosts In The Game, a weekly radio show on the subject of online gaming. He tends to seem overly serious and reserved most of the time, but he's really got a wicked sense of humour and a playful side that he generally only shows to those he's fairly close to. He also has a tendency to mentor the younger voice actors he works with, which makes him a well-liked figure in the industry. Having become quite friendly with Azakami Shun during recording for the PC voices, they're rumoured to be in a relationship of sorts, but he chooses to neither confirm or deny this fact. He's also good friends with Renjou Keita, the two of them having worked together often in the past.

Birthday: August 11th
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Height: 5'9"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice/vocals of Mizar, opening/ending/insert song vocals)
A very popular singer who's recently begun to gain some popularity as a net idol as well, especially beloved by female fans due to his cute voice and exceptional range. He was originally tapped by CC Corp to serve as Mizar, a temporary partner for Alcor for one event, but ended up landing that role permanently when fan reaction was unexpectedly (at least to CC Corp) positive. He tends to be rather private outside performances, probably as a result of being so popular, but he's been spotted out and about recently in the company of Yanagi Takeru, leading to quite a bit of speculation about possible collaborative projects outside R:3. It's said that he plays R:3, but there's no information available to the public on who or what his character is.

Birthday: December 6th

Gender: Male
Height: 5'6"
Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Saiph, male PC voice)
A part-time voice actor who takes on small roles for money while also attending university. Having been very fond of R:2, he decided to enter the open auditions for R:3 when he heard about them, expecting to land only a bit part at most, but finding himself pleasantly surprised to end up cast for both a PC voice and the major role of Saiph. Formerly rather fragile, both mentally and physically, and unwilling to trust most people due to a chaotic home life, he only managed to start straightening himself out shortly after turning 17, thanks to the intervention of a close friend who arranged for him to be placed in a far more stable situation; up until then, he hadn't known what he wanted to do with his life, and it was only on a suggestion from that same friend that he decided to pursue voice acting and discovered he quite enjoyed it. Though he still tends to be reserved around most people, he's really quite a kind person who likes to help others whenever he can.

She's known Yanagi Sarika and Hirasawa Kikue for several years now, the three of them having attended voice classes together, and was pleased to end up working with the both of them again for R:3. Though she tends to be quiet and a little reticent around people she doesn't know, which can make her come off as cold, she's still a friendly and helpful person who genuinely cares about her supporters, and has attained a small following of devoted fans for her dedication to making sure every last fan feels appreciated. She loves to read, and can almost always be found with a book at hand.

Role: Collaborative VA (voice of Sera)
A voice actress who's mostly famous for motherly-type roles, having a warm and lovingly stern sort of voice which she attributes to being one of the oldest children in a very large family. Her original intent wasn't to become a voice actress, but one of her sisters convinced her she ought to give it a try several years back, and she proved talented enough to make a decent career out of it. Outside of work, she's very friendly and more than willing to lend a hand to anyone who might need her help, though she does have a tendency to overwork herself quite a bit and has a bit of trouble figuring out when she needs to take a break from what she's doing. She was Mutsuno Sako's mentor when the younger woman was just starting out in the voice world, and the two of them are still close friends.

Takeru's younger sister, a popular singer who's always wanted to try her hand at voice acting and finally got her chance in R:3. At the recommendation of her brother, she entered CC Corp's open auditions, and ended up being chosen to voice Harvestasha as well as lend vocals to the goddess' theme song. Generally a polite and cheerful person, she throws herself wholeheartedly into everything she does, sometimes to the point of overworking herself. She's good friends with Teramoto Yuzuka and Hirasawa Kikue, who she attended voice classes with in the past and who also ended up auditioning for voice roles. She has a habit of humming quietly to herself when she's really concentrating on something.

Height: 5'7"
Role: Programmer, VA (voice/vocals of Alcor, insert song vocals)
A long-time employee of CC Corp, still just as quiet and mostly uncertain as he's ever been, though he's finally managed to shed his tendency to end up on top of filing cabinets or under desks when someone surprises him. He's also the talent and amazing voice behind the net singer Alcor, whose immense popularity led to him being included in R:3 as a virtual idol. Close friends with the Kinoshita twins, he can often be found having fun with the two of them when he's not working, although of late he's also been spotted enjoying the company of the singer Tachibana Shouta, who performs as Alcor's idol partner Mizar. He was the one who suggested his younger sister Sarika, an equally popular singer and aspiring voice actor, should audition for a role in R:3, and he's incredibly proud of her for landing the role of Harvestasha.
