Voice Actors Kaito Ishikawa and Maaya Uchida Share Marriage Announcement

Voice actors Kaito Ishikawa and Maaya Uchida have announced their marriage. The two posted a joint message on their social media accounts on September 30, 2025, sharing the news with fans and expressing their gratitude to everyone who has supported their careers in entertainment.

In the statement, they described themselves as two people who genuinely understand each other’s world as fellow entertainment professionals. After spending more time together, they said they both felt strongly that they wanted to move through life as partners.

Ishikawa is perhaps best known to anime fans as the voice of Tobio Kageyama in Haikyu!!, though his roles span a wide range of genres and styles, including Jin “Jiji” Enjoji in DAN DA DAN and Roid Brehm in Macross Delta. Uchida is equally well known, recognized especially for playing Catarina Claes in My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!, along with Frenda Selvelun in A Certain Magical Index and Francesca Prelati in the Fate/ franchise. The two previously shared the screen in GATE, where Ishikawa voiced Takeo Kurata and Uchida voiced Shino Kuribayashi.

The announcement received a warm reception online, with close to 4,000 congratulatory replies across their combined posts at the time of publication.

My take: Kaito Ishikawa and Maaya Uchida are both genuinely beloved performers, and this is one of those announcements that lands softly and warmly for anyone who grew up watching their respective shows. Wishing them well in this next chapter.
