For those who don't look in the "Show History" section, I'll explain again why I put 1969 for the date of birth.

Indeed Japanese Wikipedia puts 1971 for Hiroe Oka's date of birth, but we have a written profile dating from 1987 on her single and the album "Warau Hyouteki":
https://vgmdb.net/db/covers.php?do=view&cover=701969
https://vgmdb.net/db/covers.php?do=view&cover=526392

So in this profile she was born in 1969 (= Showa 44). I don't see why she would lie about her year of birth that year.

There'a also a note on Wikipedia which says that the Talent Data Bank lists her as born in 1969.
Note that on the Bungakuza website, her year of birth is not indicated, this artist seems to have a problem with her real age:

So I follow the profile written in 1987 and put 1969 for her date of birth.
