A Japanese singer whose voice has soundtracked series from Fullmetal Alchemist to Naruto Shippuden.
For her range, try 'Ureshii Sora No Tobi Kata' for the upbeat side and something like 'Winter Wish' for the quieter end. They frame what she does pretty well.
Her songs show up in places that matter to a certain kind of fan, the opening credits of Fullmetal Alchemist, the background of Naruto Shippuden. A track like 'Ureshii Sora No Tobi Kata' has that bright, determined energy that fits right into an anime world. She came back from a vocal cord polyp in 2011 and kept recording, which says something about sticking with it.
She started solo in 2000 with 'Sentimental Journey.' Her debut album 'Love Sprouts' hit number seven on the Oricon charts two years later. These days she works with musicians like guitarist Hidenori Tanaka, but she's still fundamentally a solo voice.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
