In the realm of anime voice acting, Yamamoto's credited roles are few. She voiced the title character, Wappi-chan, in the 2006 educational television anime Wa Wa Wa Wappi-chan, which focused on teaching Japanese language and culture. Her most recognized anime role followed in 2008 when she was cast as Kanna Kirishima in the original net animation (ONA) Ikuze! Gen-san. This slapstick comedy series was based on Irem's Gen-san (Hammerin' Harry) game franchise. In it, she played the childhood friend of the protagonist, a role that was announced alongside her previous work on Wa Wa Wa Wappi-chan. Additionally, she provided a voice for herself in a 2007 Detective Conan special feature.
