## Biography

Anna Yamaki, a native of Tottori Prefecture, was born on 15 October. She studied the piano, played the drums in high school, and played table tennis during her youth.
She started considering a voice acting career as an elementary school student and attended a vocational school as a high school student, before going to attend a university while studying acting at the same time. She subsequently graduated from the Doshisha University Department of Cultural History.
In 2018, Yamaki was cast as Sakuya Shirase, one of the five members of the unit L'Antica, in The Idolmaster Shiny Colors, a spinoff of The Idolmaster franchise. Since then, she has performed in several Idolmaster music releases, including the 2018 single "The Idolmaster Shiny Colors Brilliant Wing 03: Babel City Grace" (which charted at #13 in the Oricon Singles Chart) and the 2022 single "The Idolmaster Shiny Colors Synthe-Side 01" (which charted at #29 in the Oricon Singles Chart).

In August 2022, a Twitter account that appeared to belong to Yamaki, separate from her official one, containing suspicious tweets was discovered. On 30 August, her agency Remax responded to the incident posted a handwritten comment from Yamaki on their website, admitting to and apologizing for these posts. On the 2 September 2022 episode of her Niconico Live show Yamaki Anna no Anna Koto Konna Koto!, Yamaki spent ten minutes on an apology where she had black hair and wore a black suit.
