Fukushima emerged as one of Japan's most prominent shooters in its Olympic history. She won the silver medal in the

sport pistol at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Beijing, accumulating scores of 483.7 and 684.8 points, respectively. She also competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens
, but she neither reached the final round, nor claimed an Olympic medal.

Twenty years after competing in her first Olympics, Fukushima qualified for her fourth Japanese team, as a 44-year-old, at the

women's 10 m air pistol by two points behind United States' Brenda Shinn from the final attempt, with a total score of 373 targets.[4] Three days later, Fukushima competed for her second event, 25 m pistol, where she was able to shoot 288 targets in the precision stage, and 293 in the rapid fire, for a total score of 581 points, finishing only in tenth place.[5]
