Her song Ro Ro Ro Russian Roulette (ロ・ロ・ロ・ロシアンルーレット) and Uchū Ren'ai (宇宙恋愛(スペースファンタジー)) were respectively the opening theme and the ending theme for the 1985 anime television series Dirty Pair. For the 1987–1988 anime television series Kimagure Orange Road, Kagami no Naka no Actress (鏡の中のアクトレス) was the third opening theme song and Dance in the Memories (ダンス・イン・ザ・メモリーズ) was the third ending song. The 1992 live tour was the last public performance from her and her singing career is considered to have ended around this time. Even after ceasing to continue as a singer, Nakahara has still worked as a composer for groups and singers like Checkicco and Vivian Hsu. A tribute band to her called Lotos was formed in 2010 and was still active as of 2019.
