Nanaka Suwa (諏訪 ななか, Suwa Nanaka, born November 2, 1994) is a Japanese voice actress and singer from Kawagoe, Saitama. She is known for her role as Kanan Matsuura from Love Live! Sunshine!!.

Biography

Suwa was inspired to become a voice actress after watching the anime Hidamari Sketch.[3] She later debuted as a voice actress in 2013. She hosted an internet radio program on A&G+ as a unit called "Urumeitsu Junior."[4] On April 8, 2015, she officially joined the talent office Amuleto.[5]

In the same year, she joined the multimedia franchise Love Live! Sunshine!! as Kanan Matsuura and became a member of Aqours.[6] The character is her first role as a main character, and during the audition, she already aimed to become Kanan's voice actress.[7] She is nicknamed "Suwawa" by both fans and Aqours members.[8]

In 2017, Suwa's agency Amuleto prohibited the reproducing of her photos from various official sources. This is most likely to prevent any more impostor incidents, which she had mentioned a few days before.[9]

On March 31, 2021, Suwa announced that she would be leaving Amuleto.[10]
