Piano and choral experience

From competitions to record debut
YURiKA won the NHK Singing Competition in 2014, passed the TOHO animation RECORDS singer selection in 2016, and officially debuted in 2017 with "Shiny Ray."
Accept the invitation from Ye Souhua
In March 2018, YURiKA learned she would perform the insert song "Night Flowers" from "Summer Pockets," and made a public appearance at the Prologue Party on March 23. She recalled that when she learned about the new game, she was initially just considering buying the version.
Preparing for reading the Night Flower Reading Manuscript
Before recording and singing "Night Playing Flowers," YURiKA requested to read the entire script and read it repeatedly. She believes that understanding the situations of the four female leads and the content before the song appears is necessary to grasp the meaning of objects like picture books and paper airplanes in the song.
Recording guidance for Ye Souhua
"Night Flowers" was recorded in the Visual Arts studio, directed by Tomohiro Takeshita. YURiKA practiced controlling the crying during the singing to complete the entire song; This was also the first time she was recorded under the guidance of someone other than her usual producer.
Lia as a singing target
In a 2019 interview, YURiKA listed Lia as a singing target. She values the balance between songs and works, believing that theme songs should neither overpower the works nor rely entirely on the impression of them.
The starting point of interest in animated songs
In sixth grade, YURiKA heard about "Sousei no Akuerion" from an advertisement, which led her to start paying attention to anime theme songs and gradually delving deeper into anime and theme songs.
Singing work after transferring
She transferred to F.I.X. RECORDS in October 2023. She recalled that before and after transferring, AQUAPLUS-related work gradually increased, and these singing opportunities also expanded her range of performances.
Pre-debut selection experience
YURiKA recalls that before debuting, she participated in multiple selection contests but reached the final stage several times but did not win. She learned about TOHO's selection through someone else's introduction; she was already over 20 at the time, and she participated with the thought of having one last chance.
