[edit] Early life

As a child, Rina enjoyed singing for others, and put on shows for her mother. At the age of 5, she began musical training on the piano, becoming the class pianist for her kindergarten class and elementary school.

[edit] Career

Rina made her debut on March 23, 2000, with the release of the single, "Close To Your Heart". She released three more singles that year, and her title "Koi wa Thrill, Shock, Suspense (恋はスリル、ショック、サスペンス?)" was used as an opening theme for the anime series "Detective Conan", and made a great hit for the first time in her career. In 2001, Rina's first album, "Be Happy", that includes "Koi wa Thrill, Shock, Suspense", was released. Since then, she came to appear on TV, and became very popular in Japan. In 2002, Rina's second album "POWER OF WORDS" was released, and it is the most popular album in her work.

Her singles have since been used in other anime series, as well as video games. For example, her song, "CODE CRUSH", was chosen to be the opening theme to Capcom's Rockman X7. In 2003, with one of her most famous tunes "FULL JUMP", she performed on the stage of "NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen", the biggest concert event in Japan.

Rina is known for her wide voice range when singing, but her speaking voice is high pitched.
