Bish
Prior to joining Bish, Aina the End moved to Tokyo and first worked as a singer at a nightclub in Shibuya, then in a backup dancing unit named Parallel for the singer Yucat.[2][3] Following the disbandment of Bis, the manager of the group, Junnosuke Watanabe, began auditions for a new group named Bish in January 2015.[4] In March of the same year, Aina the End was revealed as one of the five members who passed the auditions.[5] Within the group, she is known for her husky voice, and has also choreographed songs for Bish and Empire.[1][6]
In December 2016, Bish briefly went on hiatus as she underwent surgery for vocal polyps.[6][7] She returned the next year for the release of the single "Promise the Star".[8] After the release of Wack & Scrambles Works, a joint album of groups under the management of WACK that included the reformed Bis and Gang Parade, a popularity contest was held for all participating members. The top two ranked members would release a single together under Avex Trax. Aina the End won second place behind fellow Bish member Cent Chihiro Chittiii.[9] The single titled "Yoru Ōji to Tsuki no Hime / Kienaide" was released on September 19, 2018, with Aina the End singing the second song.[10]

The song, which is titled after the series, was the first song written entirely by Aina the End.[18]
She released her debut solo album, The End, on February 3, 2021.[19] Her first EP, Naisho (内緒), was released on March 2.[20] She released her second solo album, The Zombie, on November 24.[21]

In 2023, her singles "Red:birthmark" and "Ai Kotoba" were used in anime series' Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury's second season and The Apothecary Diaries, respectively, as the ending songs.[24][25] She also played the leading role in Kyrie.[26]
