In the West, Tomoe Shinohara is perhaps best known in the
anime world for contributing the single "Ultra Relax" as the second opening theme song for the seriesKodomo no Omocha , though this single is a small footnote to a larger body of musical work. Aside from music, she has taken parts in several films,dorama , commercials, and TV programs. She is a regular cast member on the children's TV series "Monsterdio", from which five albums of cast recordings were released in 2005 and 2006.Shinohara has also had some experience as an anime voice actor.
In 2005 she formed a music, dance and performance group called PANIKARAQS (which means "Water Ballet" in
Urdu ) withYuka Honda (formerly ofCibo Matto ), Steve Eto, and Chikage. Focusing on live performance, they have not released any CDs to date. However in 2005, Shinohara released a solo CD single, "asoFever 2005", which served as the sixth Ending Theme for the animeZatch Bell! .Shinohara has had at least one song appearance on the
NHK program "Minna no Uta ".Music
