Description
Shitaya Noriko and Nomizu Iori are two Japanese music artists and performers whose work is notably connected to anime productions. They are recognized for their collaborative performance on the song "Baby! baby!" for the anime series Maken-Ki! Battling Venus, which serves as a primary example of their joint credit within the industry.
The connection between Shitaya Noriko and Nomizu Iori as a credited musical duo is most prominently documented for the 2011 anime Maken-Ki! Battling Venus. The ending theme for the series, "Baby! baby!", was performed by a rotating cast of voice actors, with the version for the first episode credited to Shitaya Noriko and Nomizu Iori. The duo also performed the song together again for the twelfth and final episode of the season alongside a third vocalist, Yahagi Sayuri.
Beyond their collaboration, both artists have individual musical careers. Noriko Shitaya has contributed to anime character song albums. In 2007, she performed "Egao Hitotsu De" as the character Sakura Matou for the Fate/stay night character image song series. In 2009, she also contributed vocals to "HYPER POSITIVE!!" for a theme song release connected to the Kurokami The Animation radio program.
Iori Nomizu has a more extensive solo music career as a singer and lyricist. She made her solo debut in 2011 with the single "M・Ka・Se・Te Tonight" which was used as the opening theme for the anime Kore wa Zombie Desu ka?. Her second single, "*** Passionato", served as the opening theme for the second season, Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? of the Dead, in 2012. Nomizu is known for her lyricism, having written the words for many of her own songs, including "Black†White" for Problem Children Are Coming from Another World, Aren't They?, "DARAKENA" for Chaika - The Coffin Princess, and "S.O.S". Her musical style often incorporates elements of gothic fantasy and rock, as heard on her album Hat Trick.
The musical identity of both artists is closely tied to the anime industry, with their work appearing in opening and ending theme songs as well as character-based image albums. Shitaya Noriko and Nomizu Iori are thus recognized for both their individual contributions as anime music vocalists and their specific collaboration on the track "Baby! baby!" for the series Maken-Ki! Battling Venus.
