Just like we were introduced to Aharen-san’s little brother Ren in episode 6 of Aharan-san wa Hakarenai, this week Aharen’s younger sister Eru Aharen showed up in Episode 9 of the popular comedy anime.
A sister Raido meets when she is outside a sword shop choosing ‘a big knife’ for cooking.
And a sister that is more than just a little tsundere. Especially when it comes to protecting her beloved Reina, who she loves more than anyone.
But who voices Eru Aharen in Aharen-san wa Hakarenai, and how many anime roles has she had in the past?
Who voices Eru Aharen?
The Japanese voice actress who plays Aharen-san wa Hakarenai’s Eru Aharen is Rina Hidaka (aka 日高 里菜, Hidaka Rina).
An actress with an enormous number of previous roles under her belt, and one that has probably played at least one of your favorite anime characters.
Rina Hidaka was born on June 15, 1994 in Chiba Prefecture, so she will be 28-years-old next month.
