Minami Takayama

Real Name: Izumi Arai
Date of Birth: May 5th, 1964

Minami Takayama is certainly a very famous singer in the J-POP business, as well as being a fairly famous voice actress as well, having about as many as Noriko under her belt. Not only is she lead singer of TWO-MIX, but she is also a member of DoCo.

She has done the voices for Edogawa Conan in Detective Conan, Kiki in Kiki's Delivery Service, Ohki Takeshi in Kodomo no Omocha (OAV), Ascot in Magic Knight Rayearth, Seeris in Record of Lodoss War, Chibi Rowdy in Slayers the Motion Picture, Dilando Albatau in Vision of Escaflowne, and (saving best for last!), lastly, Nabiki Tendo in Ranma 1/2, among other roles. She bas even done voices for the Japanese dubs of Twin Peaks!

She has appeared in 41 different animes, according to the Seiyuu Photo Gallery. She has several anime opening songs to her credit as well, with her band TWO-MIX, mostly from Detective Conan and Gundam Wing. Some of her singing credits include:

Detective Conan:
Truth (Detective Conan opening)
Gundam Wing
Just Communication (Gundam Wing 1st season opening)
Rhythm Emotion (Gundam Wing opening, not sure which season)
J-POP:
Eternal Motion
Justice - Another Possibility
Naked Dance
She has hordes of other songs, but these are merely the ones I have the MP3s of. I have found a site where the owner claims to have 500 MB of TWO-MIX music on the web, and I will be providing a link to his site soon.
