I was still very little, but from that time on I liked watching Takarazuka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>School clubs:<\/em><br>I was in the Tea Ceremony Club.

I love Shirahane-san\u2019s beautiful and charming stage presence as a musumeyaku, and I really admire her.

Also, I want to improve each day so that I can leave the impression of my performance with even one more person.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To the Future is a small\u00a0GRAPH\u00a0interview of junior actresses.
