Now an adult, she will become 20 years old soon
In 2009, she had her major debut with “Otome no Inori”. The “super innocent” type of idol Mano-chan will become 20 years old on March 11. Starting March 16, the movie “A bed ~Hatachi no Koi~” will be shown on theaters. Her 9th single “Seishun no Serenade” is currently on sale!

Lately, I’ve been doing a lot photoshoots for movies
Lately, I’ve been doing a lot photoshoots for movies. It’s not just songs, I’m also doing my best in acting. Though I had my debut three years ago, I never forget my shoshin (original intention/mind/heart)*, and I think it’s been strong lately. Also, since I will become 20 years old, I want an adult charm to come out… (lol). I always want to be someone whose development continues!

* This can be thought of as a “beginner mentality”, but the kind of beginner that’s got motivation.
