Emi Shinohara was born Emiko Shinohara in Fukushima Prefecture on August 8, 1963, and raised in Ueda, Nagano.[5][6] She joined the drama and choir clubs during her later years in elementary school.[7] 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.[7][8] While at the college, she joined an off-campus club and performed in musicals.[7]

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.[7] Subsequently, she joined Arts Vision and then 81 Produce.[7]

In 1992, Shinohara began starring as Sailor Jupiter, one of the major characters in the first anime adaptation of Sailor Moon.[9] 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."[9] In addition to Sailor Jupiter, she also voiced other background characters.[9]

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[5][10] She also voiced Agarte Lindblum in the video game Tales of Rebirth and Bakuryū Pteranodon in the tokusatsu series Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger.[11] She would often voice "older sister" or "mother" characters in anime.[7] 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.[9]

She released three albums through Apollon (now Bandai Music Entertainment (ja): Windows (1994), Street (1994), and Ashita e (1996).[12][13][14] In 1997, she released another album from Nippon Columbia, Missing Piece.[15]

Her husband was tokusatsu actor Hiroshi Watari.[11] She had an older brother.[16] 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.[17]
