Risa Oribe (Japanese: ็น้จ้ๆฒ, Oribe Risa, born June 24, 1987), better known by her stage name LiSA is a Japanese pop singer from Seki, Gifu Prefecture.
Lisa started her music career in high school with a band she formed called "Chucky". She then moved to Tokyo in 2008 where she formed another band, "Love is Same All" (her stage name, LiSA, comes from its acronym).
She had her official debut in 2010, when she landed the role as the singing voice of Yui, the lead singer of Girls Dead Monster, from Angel Beats!. A year later, she released her first single as a solo artist, oath sign, the first opening of Fate/Zero. She has been singing for anime series since then such as Sword Art Online and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (in which she has performed multiple songs for both series).
She has also done some voice acting with the Japanese dub of Minions, where she voiced Madge Nelson.
In 2019, she got engaged to voice actor and singer, Tatsuhisa Suzuki, and married in the next year.

Tropes associated with LiSA:
- Cover Version: She sang a cover of "THIS ILLUSION", the main theme of Fate/stay night visual novel for the Fate/stay night [Unlimited Blade Works] series.

- Fun with Acronyms: Her stage name is an acronym meaning "Love is Same All".
- Gratuitous English: Some of her songs like "ADAMAS" tend to have this with lyrics like:SHiNY SWORD MY DiAMOND
- Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: All of her album titles start with the letter "L".
- Solemn Ending Theme: Has performed several for anime such as "Shirushi" and "Homura".
