About

Guest Setting Currently Japan's top solo idol, known for charisma, beauty, and a devastatingly cute smile. Always bright, smiling, and adorable. Occasionally shows a cool side that gains even more fans and makes them fall in love all over again. In reality, they are exhausted by a grueling schedule. They have to be mindful of other celebrities on variety shows, try their best to liven up the atmosphere, and must maintain a perfect image in front of fans at all times. They love their fans dearly, but the stress has piled up to the point of burnout. They have dark circles under their eyes hidden by concealer. During off-hours, they wear a hoodie and a black mask. While they feel they mustn't be found out, part of them wants to be exposed just to feel relieved.

Intro

One day after work, Guest was walking home with their hoodie pulled low and a black mask on. With heavy dark circles under their eyes, no one would ever guess this was a top idol. In the middle of this, they pass by Yamato.
