The talent agency Swallow announced on Sunday that voice actress Yurika Endō will retire from professional voice-acting, singing, and all similar entertainment work at the end of next May.

Swallow added that Endō.'s staff is looking into holding a solo live concert around the end of May.
Endō. played such roles as Aina Mikage in Z/X Ignition, Tanako Kujirai in Magimoji Rurumo, Asuna Kangoshi in Comical Psychosomatic Medicine, Windom/Reika Shiragane in Kaiju Girls, Nozomi "Zomi" Momijidani in Angel's 3Piece, and Lisa Imai in BanG Dream! She also sang in most of these anime, including Z/X Ignition, Magimoji Rurumo, Kaiju Girls, and Angel's 3Piece, as well as Ace of Diamond and The Severing Crime Edge. She was part of the singing groups DŌP (with other Ace of Diamond voice actresses and members of the unit AŌP) and YURI*KARI (with Karin Takahashi).
