I'm pretty sure you know hitomi released lotsof album too :P

Chara has released a lot f albums too, you should try her, if you can stand her voice. she has been in the industry for 20 years

Seiko matsuda and matsutoya yumi have lots of album.

only I can think of Kelly Chen

she's not japanese but Chinese

Every Little Thing, Do As Infinity, both are bands with just female soloists. =D

Also Tomoko Kawase (which has albums under the brilliant green, Tommy february6 and Tommy heavenly6).

Nana Mizuki
KOTOKO

I know them too :P
but I'll give Kelly Chen a try :yes what's her genre?

I know that Anri has many albums

Elva Hsiao is a Chinese singer who has some fantastic albums. Her best ones are 1087, 3-faced Elva and Diamond Candy.

I second that :)

～Modern～
Mai Kuraki (8 albums + 2 best albums)
Rina Aiuchi (7 original + 2 best + 1 B-side best)
aiko (9 albums)
Ai Otsuka (5 albums + 2 best)

～Oldies～
Akina Nakamori (23 albums + 3 cover albums + 32 best/compilations)
Kyoko Koizumi (24 albums + 20 best/compilations)

I know the most of them :laugh

is hard to find Kelly's albums though >.<

she's sort of pop

Good luck finding their older releases: any KPop album older than, like, 5 years is hard to find. :P
