It has been revealed that Akari Yura, who works as a voice actress and singer, will have her first radio show hosted by her, starting late at night on April 11th on ZIP-FM.
Yura is active as a voice actress and singer, playing the role of Shinomiya Kokona, a member of the unit "UniChØrd," in the smartphone game app "D4DJ Groovy Mix," which is part of the "D4DJ" media mix project themed around DJs. She appeared in the 2026 No. 2 issue of the manga magazine "Weekly Young Jump" (Shueisha), released on December 11, 2025, and it was also noteworthy that she tried gravure modeling for the first time in five years for the magazine.
The title of her radio show is "FAIR NEXT INNOVATION ASIAN MUSIC CONNECTION feat. Akari Yura". In addition to sharing aspects of herself and culture that she doesn't usually show through her own words and sensibilities, Yura will also engage in talks that can only be heard here, creating a space to connect with listeners. It will air from April 11th, every second Saturday of the month around 2:30 AM.
Yura commented, "I'm so happy to announce that I'll be hosting a radio show on ZIP-FM! Actually, hosting a radio show has always been a dream of mine, so I'm thrilled that it's finally happening. I hope to gradually share some aspects of myself that I haven't shown much of before through this program. I also want to make this a show where listeners can feel comfortable talking, and where we can think together about their concerns. I'd love to grow this show together with all of you. I'm looking forward to receiving lots of letters and questions! Thank you!"
