STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| I liked her roles as Ilulu in Kobayashi Maid-o Dragon S and Yoshinaga-chan in Slow Loop, so it's sad that she'll be retiring but I wish her all the best in her future endeavors nonetheless. |

| What a shame, she is really great and I like some of her roles. I'm so sad |
RedChrome said: What a shame, she is really great and I like some of her roles. I'm so sad When a young VA retires, they've either achieved everything they wanted to or they just don't see the future. Or they got married, but that's a separate conversation. |
 |
| she's quite young! Both in years and in career. and so sudden! ...welp, I hope Mica is able to find a suitable replacement for UMP45's role, especially as Exilium is coming out soon |
| I love her voice as Ilulu and especially as Koi from Slow Loop. I wish her luck to whatever she is now putting her life towards now. |

| Ohhh, really young. Liked her roles so Im kinda sad but she probably has her reasons as to why |
  |
| Happy retirement and hopefully her future is good in whatever she does I loved her Ilulu |
| Yeah yeah, see you next year lol |
| It's either she's getting married, she doesn't get enough roles, or she's transitioning to doing AV. She's "too young" for the first two, so... |
 |
| honestly retiring after 5 years of work is such a mood. |

| Very sad news indeed. She's just new and I really liked her calm but cute voice as Ilulu and Koi. Wishing all the best for her. |

| Well, good luck for her, she must have a very good reason to retire. |

Anti-Username said: Very sad, her role in absolutely nothing memorable will be greatly missed. Truly a loss for the anime industry. BTW isn't she supposed to do VA for Itou Junji: Maniac? Which is supposed to premier in 2023. Am I missing something? she still has until December 31 and the Itou Junji anime is a Netflix anime, which comes out all at once, so she'll easily be able to do her part before it comes out in mid January, if its not already done. |

| I respect her decision of stepping down from this industry, she might thinking this is the end of my journey Well i just wish her good luck in her new life |
| I really hope the retirement isn't for anything bad. I'll miss her Ilulu, I was hoping to hear her again in that role, but I guess she'll have to be recast if we get any more Maid Dragon. |

She's "too young" for the first two, so... Erm, no. It happened to a bunch of former idols but not to seiyuus. Unless you consider working on eroge as such. As for this case, most probably she just got some health issues. Pretty common thing. |
 |
| Liked her role as Ilulu, wonder why she quit so early. |
 |
| Tomomi Mineuchi, you did a great job as Ilulu and some others. Once a rising star in a now heavily saturated female Seiyuu selection, it's sad seeing her leave this early and young, but full gratitude for what she has done. You will be missed, and thank you. |
 |
| My first thought is illness so I'm hoping this isn't the case. May she not regret this decision and enjoy her life away from VA! |

| there can't be a good reason for why you'd retire so early. or maybe there is. i guess we'll just have to live with the reason being permanently obscured |
 |
| I never heard of her before. Congrats anyway! |
