In 2001 she was cast as [[Mizuno Ami]] in the [[Sera Myu]] stage musicals, and in 2002 she became a model for the junior fashion magazine [[Love Berry]]. She soon became a fan favorite and was featured in the ''[[U-15 (photobook)|U-15]]'' and ''[[Berry Smile]]'' photobooks. She released her solo photobook, [[15 (Kawabe Chieko photobook)|15]]" in 2002 and an idol DVD, ''[[Pop!|Pop!]]'' followed.
| |
− | | |
− | In 2003 Ochi played the role of [[Osaka Naru]] in the live action adaption of ''[[Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon]]''. She also co-hosted the annual [[Music Express]] concert. It was announced in the April 2005 edition of Love Berry that Ochi would be departing from the magazine.
| |
− | | |
− | === Musical Career ===
| |
− | Ochi started to show her interest in singing at the annual ''[[Love Berry]]'' fashion shows where she would perform. In 2003 Ochi and fellow ''[[Love Berry]]'' model [[Oda Mizuho]] teamed up to form '''156P''' and released the single "[[15 no Blues]]".
| |
− | | |
− | In 2004 Ochi signed with [[VAP]] and released her debut single, "[[Be Your Girl|be your girl]]" on April 28, 2004. The song had a downbeat pop-rock sound and it was used as the ending theme for the ''[[Elfen Lied]]'' [[Anime|anime]]. The single reached #67 on [[Oricon]] and charted for a total of three weeks. Ochi's second single, "[[Shining! / Cry Baby|Shining! / cry baby]]" was released seven months after her debut single. The single reached #157 on the [[Oricon]] and charted for only one week.
| |

− | Ochi's third single, "[[Kizunairo]]" was released two months after [[Shining! / Cry Baby|her previous single]] and was the first single she wrote. The single reached #150 on the [[Oricon]] and charted for only one week. Almost two months later brought the release of her debut album, ''[[Brilliance|brilliance]]''. The album barely cracked into the top hundred, ranking at #92 and charting for only two weeks.
| |
− | | |
− | Only four months after the release of her debut album, she released her fourth single "[[Candy Baby / Mama Made]]". This single is currently her worst selling single, as it did not rank on the [[Oricon]].

− | On July 26th, 2006 Ochi released her fifth single, "[[Sakura Kiss]]". The song was used as the opening song for the ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'' anime.
