<p><strong><em>This centers around Noto Mamiko, but you can answer the question from a general/industry stand point if you want.</em></strong></p>

<p>Specifically since 2013, I'm noticing <strong><a href="http://myanimelist.net/people/40/Mamiko_Noto" rel="nofollow">Noto Mamiko</a></strong> is pretty much a bit-character voice actress. She's not even "the MC's best friend" or anything. </p>

<p>I can think of 1 main character role in 2013 - Satellizer el Bridget in Freezing Vibration. That's it.
Even last year, her biggest role was probably Nishiki in Donten ni Warau, not even a main character!</p>

<p>In severe cases she is in the show for literally 1-2 episodes.</p>

<p>Why would this GREAT VA, who has played some very memorable main character roles, now be playing barely supporting characters?</p>

<p>Did she get married? Start TV acting? Any reasonable suggestion for this atrocity?</p>

<p><em>Is it me or is <strong><a href="http://myanimelist.net/people/869/Saori_Hayami" rel="nofollow">Hayami Saori</a></strong> stealing her roles?</em></p>

Why would VAs that have many memorable lead roles take lesser roles?

Recently, voice actor has been idle reduction.

It also is might cause.
