Biography
[edit]Chiharu Sawashiro was born in Tokyo on December 20, 1987.[1][2] Chiharu is the younger brother of voice actress Miyuki Sawashiro. Miyuki had been voice acting since she was in middle school. At first, Chiharu was a bit skeptical of voice acting, since it was a lot less popular at the time. However, as voice acting got more popular, his peers continued to ask him questions about his sister. Chiharu later became a stage actor during college before he decided to give voice acting a try after voicing additional voices in the Dog & Scissors series with the Dead Stock Unit. Using connections from his sister, he was able to enter vocational school and eventually made his full debut as a voice actor with Masamuse Shiga in Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters.[3]
In August 2021, he was diagnosed with COVID-19, but was asymptomatic.[4]
