Biography

Koyama was born in Hokkaido on November 30, 1995.[2] Her mother is a nursery teacher. From an early age, she had an interest in acting, particularly after becoming familiar with stage play adaptations of the manga series Sailor Moon; it would become her dream to perform in a play of the series.[7]

Koyama became affiliated with the Sapporo-based acting office Egg in 2007, and she would begin performing in several theatrical plays in Hokkaido.[8] In 2014, she was cast as Sailor Mercury in the stage musical Sailor Moon: Petite Étrangère,[9] and she would reprise the role the following year in the stage musical Sailor Moon: Un Nouveau Voyage.[10] At some point in her career, as she was unsure of what her future held, she considered retiring from acting and pursuing a different career.[7] Following a recommendation from the director of the Sailor Moon stage plays, who was surprised to hear that she was not a voice actress, she decided to try out voice acting.[7] After passing an audition held by the talent agency Stardust Promotion, she became affiliated with them in 2017 and moved to Tokyo.[4] [7]

In 2017, Koyama was cast as Karen Aijō, the protagonist of the multimedia franchise Revue Starlight.[11] Her participation in the series began when she played Karen in the franchise's stage play, which was initially performed at the AiiA 2.5 Theater in Tokyo; she would then reprise the role in the 2018 anime television series.[4] [11] To promote the series, she appeared at panels at C3 AFA Singapore, and CharaExpo USA in 2018.[12] [13] She has also been cast as the character Haruka Shima in the multimedia franchise Onsen Musume.[14]
