I was skeptical when you posted that because it looked nothing like Kyururun but the video confirmed it Any particular reason why she didn't stick with Haru-chan and chose such a "foreigner-unfriendly" one? Does that nickname mean anything in particular?
Isn't Wannabe Tomochin's (Umeda Haruka) nickname Haru as well? Maybe she did it to distinguish herself.
"Haru-chan" is the most original nickname, and Kyururun's a lot more memorable, so maybe that's why she changed it. I like referring to her as "Kohara", though, because I think it's so pretty-sounding. xD
Kohara Haruka caught my eye in the latest PV for SDN48's new single and while I don't know any of the members yet, I want to start learning so I'll be following her thread Kay
^ Kyururun is the greatest! If you'd like to learn more about her, you should check out some B4 LODs! Kyururun was in Team B before the shuffle. :3 She's also in a lot of A5 LODs-- she performed with A a lot during her days as a kenkyuusei.
^ She was in Kioku no Dilemma, too. She wasn't in the group songs, unfortunately, and her and Chikarina both took Yuka's spot. Kohara's amazing in Kioku no Dilemma. It's how I became a fan. [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUZLTQLRkcE[/yt]
