Ever since the audition before I made my debut as a voice actress, I've always thought, "My smile is easy to remember, so be sure to remember it!" and always used my smile as something of a weapon, so I'm glad my thoughts were able to reach Good Smile Company!　When I think about that, I'm so happy to have been selected!

What do you think of when you hear "Good Smile Company"?

Figures!
And Wooser!
Ever since I was a kid, I've always liked figures, so ever since I became an adult and could buy really high-quality figures, I've relied on Good Smile Company many times.
I also love Wooser, so in the past when I've gone to Anime Summer, I've always worn a Wooser T-shirt.

Do you have a message for your fans?

I'm going to try my hardest to make Good Smile Company's celebration a lot of fun, and learn as much as I can as an Otaku myself!

I'm glad to hear my smile was complimented!!
A long time ago, I used to think my face would get really round when I smiled, so I didn't like it that much, but now I smile a whole lot when having fun! Thank you!

What do you think of when you hear "Good Smile Company"?

Good Smile Company made figures of a series called PriPara that I was in, so I have a Nendoroid Co-de figure of Mirei from PriPara on my shelf at home!
Her expression and poses are so cute!
