Biography
editShinohara was born in Fukushima Prefecture on August 8, 1963, and raised in Ueda, Nagano.[a] She joined the drama and choir clubs during her later years in elementary school.[10] 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.[10][11] While at the college, she joined an off-campus club and performed in musicals.[10]
While aiming to become an actress, 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.[10] Subsequently, she joined Arts Vision and then 81 Produce.[10]
In 1992, Shinohara began starring as Sailor Jupiter, one of the major characters in the first anime adaptation of Sailor Moon.[12] According to Megan Peters of ComicBook.com, Shinohara's "work on Sailor Moon helped kickstart one of anime's most magical stories" and she "brought that headstrong performance to life with ease."[12] In addition to Sailor Jupiter, she also voiced other background characters.[12]
In addition to Sailor Jupiter, she also voiced Presea in Magic Knight Rayearth, Kaho Mizuki in Cardcaptor Sakura, Yayoi Matsunaga in Nightwalker: The Midnight Detective, Charlotte Elbourne in Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (2000), Yōko Mizuno in Maria-sama ga Miteru, Ophelia in Claymore, and Kushina Uzumaki in Naruto: Shippuden.[5][13][14] She also voiced Agarte Lindblum in the video game Tales of Rebirth and Bakuryū Pteranodon in the tokusatsu series Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger.[15] She would often voice "older sister" or "mother" characters in anime.[10] In the last few years of her career, she reprised her role as Kaho in the 2018 sequel series Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card,[5] and she voiced Sachiko in the 2020 film A Whisker Away.[12]
She released three albums through Apollon (now Bandai Music Entertainment : Windows (1994), Street (1994), and Ashita e (1996).[16][17][18] In 1997, she released another album from Nippon Columbia, Missing Piece.[19]
Her husband was tokusatsu actor Hiroshi Watari.[15] She had an older brother.[20] She also shared the same birth date as her Sailor Moon co-star Rika Fukami, and they even had a joint birthday concert together, performing as the duo Funky Twins on their 33rd birthday in 1996.[21][22] She also worked at Senzoku Gakuen College of Music as a voice acting and anison teacher.[23]
Death
editShinohara died on September 8, 2024, one month after her 61st birthday.[1] Undergoing treatment for an unspecified illness at the time,[5] she reportedly had recently been on a respirator and wheelchair and some of her bones had fractured.[23] In addition to her husband, several other voice actors offered condolences, including her Sailor Moon co-stars Kotono Mitsuishi, Rika Fukami, Megumi Ogata, and her Naruto co-star Toshiyuki Morikawa.[24] Additionally, Sailor Moon creator Naoko Takeuchi and her husband, YuYu Hakusho and Hunter × Hunter creator Yoshihiro Togashi both drew Sailor Jupiter as a tribute to Shinohara.[25]
