Hometown: Nagasaki Hobbies: "My excellent home cookin'!"

A 19-year-old from Sasebo City, Nagasaki. A very cute, clumsy girl who speaks with a Nagasaki accent. "I ain't gonna lose to anyone when it comes to hard work" is her motto and she possesses the (unfounded) belief that she can do anything. The truth is, overall, her failures outweigh her successes, but she has a strong mind and doesn't see failures as failures. Without fear, she marches forward and gains experience and then grows as a person. Basically, she's the type that wants to be praised and when she's praised she'll want to do anything.

Working at her parents' restaurant on the bay, she drew in many customers with her cuteness. Because she was doted on, her local pride is twice as strong as the average person's. She's always bragging about her family or the local fishermen.

She wanted to be one of the idols dancing and singing on TV. Aiming to be an idol and never believing she couldn't reach her dream, she headed to Tokyo after graduating from high school. She failed countless auditions, but never lost her positive attitude and kept trying. The result of this was that she joined 283 Productions as a trainee and moved to the dorms and took lessons every day. Because she's especially talented at cooking, she often cooks for the Producer and the other idols at the dorm.
