Kohara Konomi (小原 好美, born June 28, 1992) is a Japanese seiyuu (and briefly an actress) from Kanagawa Prefecture. She found success as a seiyuu relatively early, getting her first main role in 2017 as Kukuri in Magical Circle Guru Guru only one year after her 2016 debut. She's had many notable roles in a short period of time including Akane Mizuno in Tsuki ga Kirei (2018 AniTrendz Anime of the Year), [1] Kasumi Nomura in Asobi Asobase, Shamiko in The Demon Girl Next Door, her most famous role as Chika Fujiwara in Kaguya-sama: Love Is War?, and Roxy Migurdia in Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation. While generally not a singer or a dancer, she went viral doing the Chikatto Chika Chika♡ (「チカっとチカ千花っ♡」) song at the end of episode 3 of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War?. She performed the dance while singing live later for a stage event with the video being included with the blu-ray of the first season.
