EXiNA is a Japanese singer-songwriter from Saitama, born on February 23, 1997. She first drew attention after winning the first annual FlyingDog Audition in 2014, when she was still a third-year high school student. Her early musical path was shaped by an old guitar once used by her father, which she began playing in junior high school and later became a starting point for her interest in writing songs freely.
EXiNA made her debut as a singer with the ending theme for KanColle (Kantai Collection), introducing herself to anime and anisong listeners through that release. That debut established her connection to anime music, and her profile continues to be closely associated with FlyingDog and with the early momentum created by that KanColle appearance. For listeners searching for newer Japanese female vocalists linked to anime songs, EXiNA remains a notable name in the scene.
