Orikasa is from Tokyo, Japan. After moving on from high school in 1982, she graduated from the drama department of the Nihon Denshikōgakuin College, now Nihon Kogakuin College. After performing on stage as an actress with the Bungeiza Theater Company and the Sōhen Theater Company, she participated in an audition for the TV series Little Lord Fauntleroy out of a desire to broaden her work. After several rounds of auditions, she made her debut as a voice actress in 1988, playing the main character, Cedie. According to Orikasa, Minami Takayama and Megumi Hayashibara were the other finalists in the audition for the role of Cedie, and she was chosen for the role of Cedie because of her innocence rather than her acting ability. Her stage name, "Ai Orikasa," implies her wish to be loved by everyone. The staff came up with her stage name after going to the restroom while thinking of it. Early on, she appeared in many works of Nippon Animation. Especially in the World Masterpiece Theater, she was among the frequently appearing voice actors such as Kazue Ikura, Ginga Banjō, and Ken'ichi Ogata, alongside the "three major voice actors" Mitsuko Horie, Eiko Yamada, and Keiko Han. Of all the characters she has played in anime, she cites Ryōko from the Tenchi Muyo! series as her most memorable character. She has also dubbed for dramas, movies, and animation produced overseas, and has been active as a singer. At the end of September 2011, it was announced that she had left Production Baobab, where she had belonged for many years since her debut, and moved to Axlone, Toshiyuki Morikawa's agency.
