Given name: 紗子
Family name: 千葉
Birthday: Aug 2, 1977
Website: http://www.chibasaeko.n...Member Favorites: 160 More: Saeko Chiba took up ballet at a young age with ambitions of becoming part of Takarazuka Revue. However, having failed the entrance exam for Takarazuka Music School in her third year of middle-school she joined the Minami Aoyama Shōjo Kageki Dan (南青山少女歌劇団, South Aoyama Female Opera Group?, also called Nanshō for short) a stage group for teenage girls.
Having had several lead roles over the three years she spent with the troupe, Saeko was then cast in the lead voice acting role of Kotori Haruno in the Sega Dreamcast game Diamond Daydreams. Having had a taste of being a seiyū and deciding that she preferred voice acting to performing on stage, Saeko decided to pursue the career full-time.
Some of her earlier roles include her seiyū debut as Tsubaki Sakura in Kare Kano, Kitsune no Akane in Angel Tales, and Elliot Chapman in Sci-fi Harry. Saeko was famed for her long, straight, black hair and seemingly cold outward appearance which led to her being cast in various tsundere and 'cool-girl' roles. She then cut her hair short in the spring of 2005, which strangely coincided with the increasing diversity of her roles, as Saeko herself noted on the My-HiME fandisc interview.
Saeko has also pursued a singing career with Yuki Kajiura, who wrote music for some of the Nanshō stage shows, writing and producing almost all her material. Her first single was Koi no Kiseki, the theme song for the PlayStation game Meguri Aishite. She has since released nine singles and two albums, along with various character song and drama CDs. She has also performed theme songs for games such as Alundra 2 and Atelier Judie.
Saeko was also part of the group tiaraway with fellow Nanshō member Yuuka Nanri. Originally recording and performing as 'Saeko Chiba & Yuuka Nanri' for Memories Off 2nd, the duo released three singles and an album before breaking up on 6 March 2005.

Over the extremes, I prefer her mid pitch roles: Birdy, Ruby, andn to a certain extent, Nina.

Kirky | 11-02-08, 4:21 PM
I agree with Seishi. Her pitch for Natsuki and Mio was awesome.

Where do I begin? I hated Ajimu... loved Momo, hated Nina, loved Chika....
@_@

Seishi | 10-31-08, 1:52 AM
Mio and Natsuki...ah. She needs more roles like those, rather than high-pitched voices. Nadeshiko was a pretty great character, too.

I can't believe she did Nina, she sounds totally different when she's voicing birdy *__*.
|
|
cafekko | 09-01-08, 5:33 AM
she's doing very great voicing birdy

checking this profile because i heard one of her character songs for Rosario + Vampire on a radio. couldn't recognize her voice, but then again i never had any interest in Ruby.. lol. she had a really late character introduction.
but it's nice to know she also played Natsuki (Mai-HiME), Mio (Strike Witches) and... NINA?! NOOOOOOO!!

quicksilverzx | 08-20-08, 6:57 AM
lots of roles! Dokoro-chan, Azmaria, Birdy, Nina (lol), and Mio!

She was such a rango of voices...
Nina and Dokuro are like, opposites.
