Yurika Kubo Announces Her Marriage to a Non-Celebrity

Voice actress Yurika Kubo, known for her role as Kikyo Kushida in Classroom of the Elite, has shared some exciting personal news. On Tuesday, she announced via her social media that she has gotten married to someone outside the entertainment industry.

"To everyone who supports me and everyone who cares about me, At a time when the summer sky is shining brightly, I apologize for raising a personal matter, but I, Yurika Kubo, have been fortunate enough to marry a non-celebrity. Also, this may not normally be something I would go out of my way to reveal in a written message, but… If I were to convey my honest feelings to everyone as honestly as possible, I would say I am more surprised than anyone else by this situation. I am truly unable to accept this. And while I cannot say “nothing will change,” I intend to work even harder than ever before as a person and as a voice actor, so I would appreciate your kind support. Finally, I wish you all good health and happiness. July 1, 2025 — Yurika Kubo

Her announcement has garnered nearly 2,000 responses, mostly filled with congratulations from fans and colleagues. Among the comments, fellow voice actor Satomi Akesaka humorously expressed her feelings:

"Aaaaah don't go! I'm happy and it's good news but don't go!"

Kubo responded playfully:

"Ake-chan, I'm right here! I'm here. I'm happy to receive your message, but I can't see you, Ake-chan (let's go for yakitori)."

Yurika Kubo has appeared in various popular anime, including Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest as Touka, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? as Loki, and My Deer Friend Nokotan as Neko Nekoyamada. Her full résumé can be found on her agency's website.
