- Part of "Group D" of the 99th class, which performed with Snow Troupe before receiving official troupe assignments in February 2014.
- Her favorite Takarazuka plays are 'Phantom' and 'Ephemeral Love'. Her favorite stories are 'Little Women' and 'Little House on the Prairie', her favorite animals are rabbits and bears, and her favorite main characters are Snow White and Nausicaä. Her charm point is her eyes disappearing when she smiles, it happened ever since she was a child. She wants to be in a dance ball scene wearing a huge gown and in her free time she would like to visit Vienna to watch operettas. (Kageki 2016.07)
- First Takarazuka performance she saw was Flower Troupe Phantom production.
- Close friends with Hozumi Mahiro. They had a special program together in 2019.
- Admires Sakurano Ayane and Hinami Fuu.
- As a student, belonged to the Go club and was generally passionate about the game because of her grandfather.
- Originally scheduled to appear in Thunderbolt Fantasy / Amazing Star☆Killer Rouge, on 07/23/18 she was announced absent from all performances due to injury.
