Biography

Yu Miyazaki, a native of Kanagawa Prefecture, was born on 7 October 1991. He became interested in narration after being impressed by the narration of a commercial for the Central Japan Railway Company's {{ill|Sō da: Kyōto, ikō|ja|そうだ 京都、行こう。|italics=y}} campaign.{{Cite interview |last=Miyazaki |first=Yu |title=連載第4回夢王国と眠れる100人の王子様-宮崎 遊×ひいろゆきな-後編 |url=https://funs-project.com/cretalk/004/index_2.html |access-date=2024-01-13 |work=Fun's Project}} While looking for jobs as a college student, he recalled his memory of the commercial, which he saw when he was nine years old, and considered a voice acting career. However, he had no acting experience at all, so before entering a training school, he relied on the assistance of a friend of his to do a one-man show, which he wrote himself, in front of about a hundred guests. He graduated as part of the Haikyo Voice Actors Studio's 46th class in 2014, and he joined Tokyo Actor's Consumer's Cooperative Society in 2015.

Miyazaki made his voice acting debut as an English-speaking combatant in the 2016 anime Matoi the Sacred Slayer, later recalling in an interview that he said two English-language words as that character. In June 2018, he was cast as Kiel in 100 Sleeping Princes and the Kingdom of Dreams: The Animation. In March 2020, he was cast as Sachirō Hirugami in Haikyu!!. In July 2020, he was cast as Vergil in Angelique Luminarise. In September 2021, he was cast in The Heike Story. He voiced Tsubaki in "Akakiri", a 2021 episode of Star Wars: Visions. In August 2022, he was cast as Quartz in I'm the Villainess, So I'm Taming the Final Boss. In July 2023, he was cast as Itsuomi Nagi in A Sign of Affection.

Miyazaki substituted for Yūichirō Umehara on the 13 May 2018 episode of the Kōtarō to Yūichirō Hyorotto Danshi radio program.{{Cite news |last=Pineda |first=Rafael Antonio |date=2018-05-10 |title=Voice Actor Yuichiro Umehara Hospitalized Due to Autoimmune Disease |language=en |work=Anime News Network |url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-05-10/voice-actor-yuichiro-umehara-hospitalized-due-to-autoimmune-disease/.131387 |access-date=2024-01-12}}
