Yūko Minaguchi (皆口 裕子, Minaguchi Yūko, born June 26, 1966) is a Japanese actress, voice actress and narrator from Bunkyō, Tokyo. She is affiliated with Aoni Production.
In 2012, Minaguchi took a nineteen-month-long hiatus from acting in order to study abroad in the United States. This resulted in Shino Kakinuma being cast as Videl for the final arc of Dragon Ball Kai,[1] although Minaguchi did reprise her role as the character for 2013's theatrical film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods and continued to voice her afterwards.
