Akane Kumada

Akane Kumada is a Japanese singer and anime song artist from Tokyo, Japan, born on February 3, 2000. She came to wider attention in 2017 after winning the Grand Prix in the ANISONG STARS seiyuu artist audition, a competition organized by Lantis, Amuse, Bandai Visual, and Bandai Namco Live Creative. Kumada was chosen from 4,846 contestants and 24 finalists, and that breakthrough connected her directly to Japan’s anison and voice-acting scene. Kumada’s official profile also lists a height of 167 cm, hobbies of cooking and jazz dance, and a special skill in koto. Her artist profile is associated with J-pop and the Lantis label, and her background through ANISONG STARS makes her a recognizable name for listeners searching for Japanese artists linked to anime music. The combination of a documented audition win, a clear Tokyo background, and her personal profile details gives Akane Kumada a distinct place in the anime song landscape.
