About Mariko B.

Hi, how are you?

I'm a bilingual Japanese voice actor in the Washington DC area. I was born and raised in Japan, and has been in the US for quite a long time. So I speak native Japanese as well as English with a slight Japanese accent. You can find my voice samples both in Japanese and English in my website. Home studio ready.

Some of the recent work:

  • FX SHOGUN English dub: Lady Ochiba

  • Haruna Tatsushima in "Everlasting Shenjiu" (Audio drama)

  • Ami in "Serenity" (animation short)

I love acting and do more in audio drama! It's just a pure joy to be part of creating an art work together. My natural voice is lower than typical Japanese anime girl characters.

Just in case you need anything else - I'm also a professional translator and a writer (in Japanese), so I can help translate your English script into Japanese or edit it from a voice artist's and native speaker's point of view as well (translation fee may apply). 

Please feel free to reach me out for your current and future projects.
