Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger
Kawai is best known for her role as Lamie in the 1992 "Super Sentai" series "Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger". While some people have distanced themselves from their role in the Super Sentai series, she appears to have fond memories of her role. As she appeared towards the middle of the series, she had a tough learning curve to overcome, but overcame it well. Kawai's official websites mentions several behind-the-scene experiences playing the role. These include confronting her fear of heights when she had to stand from the tip of a tall building the first time she appeared on screen and her embarrassment of turning into a monster when her character became a giant.
