Person
She has had a consistent black haircut bob style since her idol days.
He uses the first-person pronoun "boku" (or "boku" in hiragana) and speaks in a fluffy manner. He used to speak rather clearly when he debuted, but when he appeared on TV Asahi's official YouTube channel "Video, Hajimemashita," he said, "(At that time) I was at a level where I didn't know how to speak, so I couldn't talk to people...I couldn't even talk to the other members," and "When I try to raise my voice, the tone (of my voice) changes," so he says that this way of speaking is natural to him now.
He is basically introverted and goes at his own pace. He is gentle, but he also has a sharp tongue, and his exchanges with Yamazato Ryota and Karahashi Yumi were popular on the variety show Shinshock Kan.
He often mentions that he doesn't like being treated as a mysterious character.
He stopped going to school in junior high school due to bullying, and he couldn't fit in at high school either, so he voluntarily dropped out shortly after entering and lived a reclusive life for a while.
She didn't particularly want to be an idol or a musician, but she saw an ad for Yurumerumo! on Twitter, and as the description said "People who like music" and "People who like comedy", she thought she could play an instrument and the atmosphere seemed relaxed, so she applied.
After applying, she received contact from the producer, but she was scared of going to the interview, so she ignored the emails for a while. She was invited many times to "at least come and see a live performance", and when she went to see them, she decided to join because the live performance by the members at that time was incomplete, it was the first time she had the experience she was wanted for, and there was nothing else she wanted to do.
The member color of "Yurumerumo!" was light blue.
Although she usually appears quiet, she performs extreme performances at live performances, such as screaming and diving into the audience.
A photo from one live performance was compared to Hashimoto Kanna's miraculous photo, and it became a hot topic as the "final battle between angels and demons.
She did not mention the reason when she left the group, but later, in an Instagram story post, she commented, "I was stressed because the group's policies did not suit me, but I couldn't quit my work because of my sense of responsibility, and I gradually became mentally cornered and reached my limit."
Regarding her relationship with the other members, she said, "We weren't that close when we were in the group," but former member Chiffon also mentioned at a talk event, "There are people who are close to each other among the four of us," so rather than being on bad terms, it seems that the members were not in a clingy relationship with each other.
It is said that Ano-chan's fans are relatively young women. Particularly enthusiastic female fans are called "Ano-chan gals." A well-known example is the talent Nae Nano, who openly stated that she was an Ano-chan otaku. However, it is true that she is popular with a wide range of people, regardless of age or gender. Ano-chan is also a person who has a diverse influence on a diverse range of people. For example, 17-year-old influencer Tenman is said to have been influenced by her and started her own influencer activities. In addition, in terms of fashion and hairstyles, styles influenced by her are popular among subcultural girls, and there is a genre called the "light blue neighborhood" based on the member color.
In addition, she comes to watch the audience in the studio for "Uwa! Damasareta Taisho", but she is inexperienced as both the target and the prankster.
Her basic hair style is a black bob, but for a while she has appeared on other programs with blonde hair for a while to prepare for the role. For a long time, it was unknown what work she will be appearing in, but in 2024 it was announced that the work is "Oshi no Ko" and that she will play the role of MEMcho.
Hobbies and tastes
Her favorite foods are soup, shrimp, gummy candy, and potato chips. She is quite a picky eater.
Her favorite animals are mice, dogs, cats, and pandas.
Her hobby is looking at the alignment of people's teeth, and her favorite type is "people with separate teeth." In a Mad Max TV segment, he once had a debate with Hiroyuki about the alignment of teeth. Recently, he has become fond of Iguchi's Westland teeth alignment (double dentition).
He is a fan of Keisuke Honda.

Side note
When he appeared on the October 13, 2021 episode of "Lovett!," he gave a series of crazy answers that rivaled those of comedians during the quiz, such as "the red part of a chi-so," "loose red lark," "Yada-san>Yada Akiko's shaved gums," and "Moriyama's De Agostini."
However, these were remotely controlled by a comedian in a "Wednesday Downtown" project.
In "Yokai Sensei Tanaka", he gives a series of unusual answers that are not much different from the Ogiri answers mentioned above, and is often in the worst three along with KNakaK.
Of course, this one has no remote control.
- Nyuudougumo → Milf tool cow
- Area of trapezoid = (base + height) x air ÷ 1
- Electricity can be calculated by smoke x light
- Translate "Hi, Cathy. I think I'm lost." → Yes, Cathy, I'm disappointed in your 〇〇こ
On the other hand, as can be seen from his extreme performances in the aforementioned Yurumerumo! era, he is highly regarded as the best in athletic ability among the performers.
