Biography
[edit]Emi Shinohara was born in Fukushima Prefecture on August 8, 1963, and raised in Ueda, Nagano.[2][3] She joined the drama and choir clubs during her later years in elementary school.[4] Since junior high school, she had always wanted to become an actor, and after graduating from Ueda High School, she thought that "singing can also be a way to study acting", and she was subsequently educated at the Kunitachi College of Music Department of Music Education.[4][5] While at the college, she joined an off-campus club and performed in musicals.[4]
While aiming to become an actor, she joined a study group called Voice Arts, and she took part in an audition at the invitation of sound director Yasunori Honda, who was a teacher of hers at Voice Arts, and passed, and she was cast as B-ko Daitokuji in the 1986 film Project A-ko.[4] Subsequently, she joined Arts Vision and then 81 Produce.[4]
In 1992, Shinohara began starring as Sailor Jupiter, one of the major characters in the first anime adaptation of Sailor Moon.[6] Megan Peters of ComicBook.com that "her work on Sailor Moon helped kickstart one of anime's most magical stories ... Shinohara brought that headstrong performance to life with ease."[6] In addition to Sailor Jupiter, she also voiced other background characters.[6]
In addition to Sailor Jupiter, she also voiced Presea in Magic Knight Rayearth, Kaho Mizuki in Cardcaptor Sakura, Charlotte Elbourne in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (2000), Ophelia in Claymore, and Kushina Uzumaki in Naruto: Shippuden[2][7] She also voiced Agarte Lindblum in the video game Tales of Rebirth and Bakuryū Pteranodon in the tokusatsu series Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger.[8] She would often voice "older sister" or "mother" characters in anime.[4] In the last few years of her career, she reprised her role as Kaho in the 2018 sequel series Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card,[2] and she voiced Sachiko in the 2020 film A Whisker Away.[6]
Her husband is tokusatsu actor Hiroshi Watari.[8] She had an older brother.[9] She also shared the same birthday as her Sailor Moon co-star Rika Fukami, and there was even a joint birthday concert for the two.[10]
