History

In 2008, Ogura Yui was placed into HAPPY! STYLE a new Up-Front Style unit which performs live musical performances of famous idol and anime songs. In that same year Yui was the dance motion capture model for the vocaloid character Hatsune Miku. In 2009, Yui was placed into the group Team DEKARIS along with Noto Arisa, Ishihara Kaori & Matsunaga Maho. Then in May of 2010 Yui along with Ishihara Kaori were placed into a new duo group called YuiKaori.

In 2011 Yui took part in the seiyuu group RO-KYU-BU! in order to sing the theme songs for the anime series in which she voiced a character. Later in October of 2011 she was placed into the promotional unit StylipS with the same members of former group Team DEKARIS.

Her debut solo single was announced in April 2012, to be the ending theme song for the light novel-based TV anime series "Campione!", where Yui also provided the voice of the character Atena.
