One commenter also asked her if she was familiar with the manga, and Reimold had an affirmative reply, which explains her brilliance as Aira.
You must’ve read the manga cause there’s no way you clocked her this good 😭🔥

Usually, fans are more critical of English dubs, so it’s good to see that they are so welcoming to the voice actor. And to be fair, she has proved herself deserving of all the praise directed her way.
Starting off as petty and pretentious, Aira undergoes great character development and becomes more likable as the story progresses. So, Reimold will get to showcase different aspects of her character. Aira is integral to the main plotline and it’s good to know that the actor is as enthusiastic about her role as fans are. Even before playing Aira, Reimold has been a part of many renowned anime and video game series.
Who is Aira’s Voice Actor Lisa Reimold?
Lisa Reimold is a 26-year-old American voice actress. Over the years, Reimold has played many anime and video game characters. Her recent roles include Uran from Pluto, Anju from Zom 100, and Kurumi from Lycoris Recoil. She has also played several roles in The Irregular at Magic High School including Izumi and Michaela.
Some other anime series that she worked in include Re: Zero, Madoka Magica, Cells at Work, and Edens Zero. Besides the anime characters that she has played, her role as Eitri in the Fire Emblem Heroes video game also caught special attention from fans.
Now, as Aira, the voice actor has the opportunity to showcase her talent to a whole new fanbase. Aira’s prominence in the story allows her to experiment with different tones given the character’s tsundere duality. Hopefully, the show ends up being as rewarding for the voice actor as it has been for the audience so far.
Dandadan is available to stream on Crunchyroll and the manga can be read on the MangaPlus app and website.
