Although having debuted as the lead vocalist for the band day after tomorrow in 2002, misono debuted as a solo artist on March 29, 2006, with her single VS. The single debuted in the top five of the Oricon charts, but would become her only solo single to break the top five.
Despite releasing multiple singles annually, along with annual albums, misono's releases would fail to chart well. Her debut album Never+Land (2007) charted at No. 20, Sei -say- (2008) at No. 20, Me (2010) at No. 35 and Uchi (2014) at No. 49. Due to her decreasing sales, her final album, Uchi, had the message, "If we do not sell 10,000 albums, misono can't release another CD," as a subtitle to the album.[1]
As of October 13, 2014, misono has not released another single or album.[2]
