Her favourite vehicle is the motorcycle. She learn to play the piano from the age of three, and started singing vocals from high school.
She graduated from the Senzoku Gakuen College of Music Music Vocal Course in March 2009.[1][2] While studying at the university, she passed the audition of Okaasan to Issho (NHK Educational TV), and since 20 March 2008 served as Uta no Onēsan of the twentieth generation (except Friday of the previous week (28 March 2008), she appeared at the end of the program in the form of taking over as the first successor of the predecessor's successor). Her tenure has been in eight years, along with Miki Kamada of BS Okaasan to Issho, as Uta no Onēsan for the longest record of all time. Daisuke Yokoyama was her Uta no Onīsan and co-star, Yoshihisa Kobayashi was her Taisō no Onīsan, and her Dance no Onēsan was Maya Ito in the first four years (until 31 March 2012) and Risa Uehara (she was also a junior of the same university; however, the graduated courses were different) in the latter four years (from 2 April 2012 until 2 April 2016).
On 31 March 2016, graduation greetings by Mitani took place at the end of the programme, and Atsuko Ono[3] serving as her successor was introduced. After that, they sang "Arigatō no Hana" with Yokoyama, Kobayashi, Uehara to continue.
She finished with the appearance of the "Family Concert" broadcast on 2 April 2016, and graduated from Okaasan to Issho at the age of thirty. At the time of a news conference, she said that she did not belong to the entertainment office and spent it for a while,[4] and her last activity outlining the guest appearance to the Okaasan to Issho Family Concert Shiritoriji made Daibōken in May of the same year and is in a dormant state.
