Biography

Taniguchi was born on August 17, 1994, in Osaka Prefecture. Taniguchi dreaming of becoming a voice actress, she once told her mother that she wanted to attend a high school where she could study acting. Her mother, however, suggested she go to a regular academic high school instead. During her first year of high school, while considering attending a specialized school after graduation, a classmate told her about a training school that even high school students could attend. Inspired, Taniguchi joined the Japan Narration Acting Institute during her second year of high school, managing to balance her regular studies with voice acting training. After completing the basic course, Taniguchi passed the in-house audition and officially joined Arts Vision.^[3] Taniguchi also has a nickname, "Poyo," which was given to her by Asami Shimoda, a fellow voice actress at the same agency.^[4]

In January 2014, Taniguchi made her debut as Gromazen R9 in Robot Girls Z. Later, in 2019, she landed her first lead role in a TV anime, playing Nao Nanao in Ahiru no Sora.^[5]
