Career
Fujino joined an entertainment agency in October 2011. In 2014, she was cast as the main character in Izuru Narushima's film Solomon's Perjury, an adaptation of Miyuki Miyabe's novel of the same name. She was selected out of approximately 10,000 people in an audition process that took an unprecedent six months. At the time of her debut, Fujino had only acted as an extra. She used her character's name as her stage name because she "doesn't want to forget the feelings" of receiving the role.
