About

Rei Igarashi (五十嵐麗) is a Japanese voice actress born on January 9, 1963, in Fuchu, Tokyo.

Her best-known role is Precia Testarossa in the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha series, a grief-stricken, obsessive mother whose choices destroy her; she later reprised the part in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha: The Movie 1st. Other credits include Kuroha Diana Shiratori in Eden of the East, Ryoko Naruse in Shangri-La, Nike in Appleseed: Ex Machina, Misha in...
