Her anime and OVA voice roles are diverse. She is credited with providing the voice of Jimmy in the special Daikyouryu Jidai (The Age of the Great Dinosaurs). In the science fiction OVA Megazone 23 Part II, she voiced the character Dump in the original English dub. For the supernatural OVA Phantom Quest Corp., she is credited as the voice of Suimei. Another notable credit is in the horror anime Dracula: Sovereign Of The Damned, where she voiced the character Dolores.

Banas's extensive filmography also includes voices in Robotech, where she performed multiple roles under the name Celena Banas, and in other dubs such as Tekkaman Blade, Gate Keepers, and the movie Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise. Her career reflects a pattern of working on anime localization projects during the 1980s and 1990s, particularly those adapted for the American market by companies like Harmony Gold. The use of multiple pseudonyms throughout her career means that a comprehensive list of her roles is often compiled from several different credited names.
