Atsuko was born on November 14, 1962 in Gunma Prefecture. She is best known as Motoko Kusanagi in the Ghost in the Shell franchise, Harumi Kiyama in A Certain Scientific Railgun, Carmilla in Fate/Grand Carnival, and Caster in the Fate/stay night series, among others.
Her more recent roles include Hanami in Jujutsu Kaisen, Flamme in Frieren: Beyond Journey's End, Rose in The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic, and Ōmurasaki no Omae in YATAGARASU: The Raven Does Not Choose Its Master, among others.
Atsuko also voiced game characters such as Poison in Street Fighter III, Street Fighter V, and Street Fighter X Tekken; Layla Hassan in Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Assassin's Creed Origins, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla; Jerri in Persona 5 Tactica, Gaby in Shin Megami Tensei IV, and Impa in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.
A filmography spanning over 30 years, an amazingly recognizable voice, and a gold standard when it comes to older mature voices (for me personally atleast). A grand name in history of anime and games.
