Naoko Kamio (神尾直子 Kamio Naoko) is a Japanese suit and voice actress. Active since 1988 and still consistently employed as a suit actress today, Kamio has enjoyed the longest career of any suit actress. She is most renowned for her longstanding presence as a suit actress in Toei's Super Sentai franchise, with her most famous role being that of Mega Pink in Electromagnetic Squadron Megaranger. In addition to Super Sentai, Kamio frequently appears in Toei's other major tokusatsu franchise, Kamen Rider. She not only performs action and stunts, but is also responsible for dubbing over female characters in action scenes and has worked as a voice actress in both television and in video games. Kamio is married to fellow suit actor Hirofumi Fukuzawa, who like her is a mainstay in the Super Sentai and Kamen Rider series and even played Gamera in Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris. Kamio portrayed both Rodan and Minilla in Godzilla Final Wars.
