Debuting in 1996 with the Single "Do-Do for Me", Rina's career transitioned through bouncy pop songs and ballads to rock and then R&B. Rina had a powerful and versatile voice and could deliver powerful rock ballads such as "In Your Eyes", hard rock "Yes!" or bouncy pop-cum-dance "Baby Love." Her voice is at its best when she sings at lower, throaty pitches. Some earlier songs such as "God Bless the World" and “Wing” sung in a high-pitched voice, perhaps in an attempt to come across as cutesy, are not so pleasant to the ear. Although there are many high-pitched singers in Japan, in Rina's case this tended to polarise listeners in a way seldom seem. The songs were hits nonetheless. Like other Okinawa Actors School alumni, she is an accomplished dancer.
