Information
At the age of 12, Shion was selected to go to the Avex Artist Academy. After 4 years of long-term lessons, she graduated with fellow classmate Kojo Seara.
They both were signed under the label Rhythm Zone and became the project "The Rival". They both released a single, Shion's was called "BOY" and Seara's was called "JOY". Both leading songs had the same melody, only a different arrangement. Both singles were released on the same day but failed reaching the top 100 on the Oricon chart.
After their first single they both released a 1000 copied limited single. The one selling her copies the fastest would be the first one re-signed on their label and would be the first one to release new material. Shion won this competition selling her single "Shinin' Star" a couple of weeks before Seara and so she started recording her mini-debut album "dear". Because they both out sold their single they got their own official websites.
Shion now writes a cellphone dorama story named "Koi Uta". This is a story about Shion's experience with love. On 21 April 2009, Shion's official website presented a new arranged version of "Shinin' Star" that would be available for online download on mu-mo. On the 17th of June the official website released a new song named "Everything is you -MAKAI original mix-" for the cellphone. On 17 July 2009, a second mini-album was confirmed by Shion's official website titled "LOVE SONGS - Koi Uta". The mini-album contained songs in which she sang about her experience that were told in "Koi Uta".
