Mano Sakuragi

Hometown: Tokyo, Japan Hobbies: Going out, Sun basking in the park

Mano is a gentle girl who you want to protect. Her catchphrases are “Howa~” and “Mun!”. Mano has a kind personality and rarely gets angry or gives her opinion without being asked, but she has a tendency to saddle herself with worries in secret... Raised close to nature since she was young, Mano loves spending her time relaxing in the park. When Mano visits the park birds tend to gather around her and she often loses track of time playing with them. Mano loves birds and has a pet pigeon named Pii-chan. Mano also loves shopping and going on excursions. However, Mano has a slight aversion to large crowds since she often gets pushed around.

Social interaction isn't Mano’s strong suit, and she was scouted by Producer while she was wondering whether she’d be alright staying her shy self forever. While usually not the type to take initiative on her own, after being offered several times Mano came to think being an idol “could be a chance to change herself” and decided to become an idol. Mano is a part of the unit “illumination STARS”. She has great respect for her unit-mate
