Marshmallow Yakitaro
BIOGRAPHY
Marshmallow Yakitaro (Japanese: マシュマロ焼太郎, read Mashumaro Yakitaro, also romanised Marshmallow Yakitarou) is a Japanese voice actor working under a pen name, the customary arrangement in Japan’s boys’ love audio industry. He is indexed in Japan’s mainstream broadcast and film directories, including The Television’s talent listing, Niconico’s N-Anime credit index and allcinema.
His television anime credit is the male lead Fukami Yu, the reserved IT specialist, in Unexpectedly Naughty Fukami (やたらやらしい深見くん, 2025). The series adapts Ayaka Matsumoto’s manga across eight episodes and was broadcast on TOKYO MX and BS11 from April 6 to June 8, 2025, directed by Akane Oozora, with series composition by Eyo Kurosaki, character design by Reina Nasu, animation by studio HOKIBOSHI and production by Suiseisha.
The production carries a two-person voice cast: Marshmallow Yakitaro and Chasuke share every episode between them, and the two also perform the theme song “Bokura no Rendezvous” in character. Taking a named lead across a full broadcast run, plus the theme song credit, makes this his principal documented screen work to date.
BLGLFlix editorial view
His professional name translates to something close to grilled marshmallow, and the silliness is the point.
Marshmallow Yakitaro (マシュマロ焼太郎) voices Fukami Yu in Unexpectedly Naughty Fukami, the eight episode 2025 adaptation, and performs its theme song in character alongside his co-star.
Pen names in Japan’s boys love audio industry are not disguises pretending to be real names. They are obviously invented, often comic, and everybody involved knows it. That openness is what makes the convention work: nobody is being deceived, a separate professional identity is simply being maintained in plain sight, and the audience treats the name as belonging to the performances rather than to a person.
A reference site has to take that at face value. There is no legal name to find, no birth date behind the pseudonym to confirm, and the credits under this name are the complete and correct record of the work.
He is indexed in the mainstream Japanese broadcast and film directories, which matters: this is catalogued professional work in the ordinary listings, not something operating at the edge of the industry.
The page records the name, the profession, the confirmed roles and the theme song credit. Nothing else exists to record.
