Biography

Noto was born in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan.[4][5] After graduating from Baba Elementary School in Kanazawa City in 1992, she entered Kanazawa City Koshomachi Junior High School. In 1995, Noto entered Hokuriku Gakuin High School. After graduating from high school in 1998, Noto attended Yoyogi Animation Gakuin for a year, after which she became a trainee at the Osawa office. There, she was in charge of the script for episode 21 of the UHF anime, Tōka Gettan, first broadcast in April 2007.

Noto was introduced as a person from her hometown of Ishikawa Prefecture in the morning edition of the Hokkoku Shimbun column, "In the distance," dated April 7, 2008.

Noto agreed to appear as a voice actress in the seventh volume of Haruka Nogizaka's Secret. The scene where she encounters Haruka at the CD release event is depicted with the impression that "the voice and characters are similar to Haruka." In volume nine, she reappears as "N's" and depicts the workplace and the scene of accepting autograph requests.

Career

Voice acting

Noto's voice has been described as a "whisper voice" and a "healing voice".[5] Yasunori Honda commented, "There is no such thing as a muddy voice. This is a place that was born with a natural nature and is a little out of the ordinary, isn't it?"[citation needed]

Since the mid-2000s, Noto has been increasingly in charge of narration. Her voice is heard in promotional commercials such as for Mitsubishi Electric, Kewpie Corporation, and "Avocado.com". Aside from commercials, she is also in charge of the anime Inadvertently Penelope and the DVD The Scottish Fold Brothers: Atom & Luke.

Noto supervised the use of the Kanazawa dialect in Hanasaku Iroha, which is set in Noto's home of Ishikawa Prefecture. It has been noted that Noto requested her parents' cooperation, and in the staff roll of the seventh episode, "People of the Noto family" are credited as supervisors of the Kanazawa dialect.

In 2024, Noto was one of the recipients of the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 18th Seiyu Awards.[6]

Music

Noto sang "Ashita no Te" (あしたの手) in the anime series Witchblade.

On November 23, 2011, Glory Heaven released Noto's debut single, "Ao no Kiseki". The OP / ED theme of the radio "Mamiko Noto / Earth NOTE", for which she is a personality, was recorded by her. Before that, she released the CD "Scoop! / 7 days after" in collaboration with Ayako Kawasumi, who often co-stars at the same office.

Personal life

Noto announced her marriage on September 14, 2018.[4] Noto announced the birth of her first child on February 1, 2019.
