Sakamoto has many collaborations with the aforementioned Yoko Kanno and CLAMP. Her star as a seiyuu is still rising, even landing her parts in stage plays, including a multi-year run as Eponine in the Japanese production of Les Misérables. Several of her roles she has done alongside Mamoru Miyano and Kenichi Suzumura. On August 8, 2011, she and Kenichi got married. Congratulations to them both!
