Shortly before E.M.U disbanded, he joined with his fellow seiyū and friend, Nobutoshi Canna, to create a new group, Zero Phoenix. The duo only released one CD so far titled "Kirameki". It's unknown whether or not the group is still together or when they will release another CD.[1] He manages his own website called Hikaru's Bar.
