As a musician, Kusunoki records under the Sacra Music label, a subsidiary of Sony Music. In March 2023, she stepped down from her role as Setsuna Yuki in the Love Live! franchise due to her health no longer allowing her to keep up with the demanding dance choreography of live tours. The role was subsequently recast with Coco Hayashi. Now 26, she stays active in both voice acting and music, and she stands at 5'1" with a slim build.
