- Before joining AKB48, competed in The 30th HoriPro Talent Contest (第30回ホリプロタレントスカウトキャラバン) and was among the Top 15 out of 52,547 contestants
- She received the loudest applause after her singing performance during this contest, and was the only girl who didn't cry when the winner was announced
- Original center of AKB48
- She is the only AKB48 member who participated in all singles (except Janken Tournament singles)
- Was officially announced as Team A captain during the 2009 Team Shuffle
- Known for her "failing" (suberi) character on TV (telling stories that she thinks are funny, but actually are not)

- Would eat Ginza Bairin's katsudon for her last meal
- Her childhood hero is Kakuranger
- Based on Shukan AKB 100Q, she thinks that she is good at decisive dance choreography, but not as good at graceful dance steps
- As seen on AKB 1ji 59fun!, she can't skip properly
- Likes guys who wear suits. Thinks it's dreamy when they're fixing their collars
- Rates herself as a 3 out of 10, her reasoning being that she doesn't think she has many feminine points and is probably a disappointment as a female
- Can often be seen giving speeches and leading the group huddles for both concerts and stage performances.
