Song you sing at Karaoke Ririkku by TOKIO
Reason you joined Jrs My parents sent the application form without me knowing
Thing you're happiest about since joining Jrs Getting to hold a mic and sing HO! Summer on Music Station - It was about 3 or 4 years after I joined. I was like “Why me?!” and was extremely nervous
I won't lose to anyone at this... Dance, art of forcefulness - The “art of forcefulnes” is where you have to be proactive and push yourself forward. It seems like anyone could do it but it’s difficult to get the timing right. You have to have courage to do it!
When was you first love? Middle year of kindergarten - There was a girl who said she loved me so I fell for her too. I guess I’m weak to being pushed.
Date plan 1 night 2 day seafood tour - In the afternoon we’d have an “all you can eat” on freshly caught fish grilled at the beach. In the evening we’d go to a traditional inn and eat local “dancing abalone” (T/N It’s a shellfish that moves like it’s dancing as you cook it). Then we’d relax in the hot springs and the next day we’d eat sushi. I want to have a date where we indulge in seafood.
Ideal girl Someone who gets along with her father - Someone who can just casually go shopping with her Dad or go out to eat with him will definitely be a good person!
Dream for the future I want to be told my performance is outstanding and be a person whose superiority is acknowledged by others.
What do you aim to accomplish by March 2017? I want to succeed in dance - I want people to think of me if they’re talking about Johnny’s who can dance. I also want to learn a foreign language. When I studied dance in LA for a short time I really felt how useful it would be
