Biography

On 19 March 2017, she passed the final examination of the STU48 First Generation audition and was provisionally accepted into the group.[2]

On 25 April 2017, in the official book AKB48 General Election Official Guidebook 2017 (Kodansha, released 17 May 2017) of the 9th AKB48 Senbatsu General Election deciding AKB48's 49th Senbatsu Members, she was included as one of 100 members most discussed in social media.[3]

At the stage of the 2017 Hiroshima Flower Festival which started in Hiroshima City on 3 May 2017, it was announced that she would participate.[4]

She graced the cover of "Weekly Shōnen Magazine" released on 31 May 2017. Her comic magazine cover debut on the 73rd day after passing her audition is the fastest of any AKB48 Group, Nogizaka46, or Keyakizaka46 member.[5]

On 3 June 2017, STU48's first live was held at AEON Mall Okayama. They performed five songs, including the first performance of the STU48 original song "Setouchi no Koe" with Takino being the center.[6]

On 8 July 2017, the sixteen selected members for the STU48 debut single to be released on 1 November were announced on the video distribution site "SHOWROOM" with Takino as the center.[7] It is the second song following STU48's original song "Setouchi no Koe", which is included in the 48th single "Negaigoto no Mochigusare" of AKB48.[7]

In October 2018, a documentary about the Shinkansen that she hosts will air on TV Asahi.[8]

Personal life

Takino had wanted to become an idol since she was a primary school student, but didn't actively pursue that dream until she found out about STU48 since it would not be realistic to become an idol in rural areas.[9] She moved from Yamaguchi to Hiroshima in 2016 to attend university[1][10] and took the audition for STU48 in Hiroshima.[11] In a post-acceptance interview, she said that she wanted "to be in a group that makes many people feel the goodness of Setouchi."[12]

She belonged to a saxophone band when she was a junior high school student.[13] According to her, by participating in concerts, she was "able to learn not only technical skills but also the importance of friends."[1] According to Manabu Yamamoto, theater manager of STU48, her saxophone skills are "clearly at a professional level," and she is "a member who will increase the expectation for future activities".[1]

Her favorite foods are mango and Onomichi ramen.[14] A railway enthusiast,[15] she loves the Shinkansen Iron character[1][13] and recommends Setouchi visitors to ride the steam train SL Yamaguchi.[14]

In 2016, she worked part time at a Mazda Stadium beer stand and consistently placed in the top three in sales.[10][16]
