Like most anison artists, animation isn't just a career for Inori Minase—she's so engrossed in that world, she says Mickey Mouse is her ideal husband. A beloved Japanese voice actress since her teens, Minase took a page from Nana Mizuki's playbook, establishing herself as the go-to singer for anime soundtracks, while being equally capable of selling out a stadium. Latter-day singles showcase a voice beyond her years: searing vocal highs ring clear above frenetic, chopped-up video game chiptune on "TRUST IN ETERNITY", but are deftly harnessed and mellowed on the poignant ballad "BLUE COMPASS".
