Chihaya Kisaragi

Chihaya Kisaragi is one of the main characters from The iDOLM@STER series.
== Charactah Account ==
Cool and serious, Chihaya has the greatest enthusiasm towards music (and, according to the game, the greatest natural talent for it) out of all of the girls, earnestly believing that if she were no longer able to sing, she would rather die.
Chihaya doesn't very much care for the title "idol" in fact, and prefers to refer to herself as a "vocalist" instead, somewhat shunning the non-singing parts of being an idol.
During her time off, Chihaya enjoys listening to classical music, along with generally spending time by herself, giving an aura of maturity about her. Though in actuality, she's really just awkward when it comes to communicating with other people.

== Trivia ==
* According to the arcade version, Chihaya's email address is carl_czerny50@idolmaster.jp. Carl Czerny was an Austrian composer.
* While not known for being an instrumentalist, Chihaya can play a little piano and violin.
** This is referenced in her role in D/Zeal, where Chihaya is a nationalist level piano player and in a band with Julia.
* The song Hanamuke no Tori is a direct reference to Chihaya. The song cover and MV include a blue feather, while the lyrics discuss her directly.
* Chihaya loves dogs and would buy one if she could. However, her apartment complex restricts the keeping of house animals and she'd need to ask someone to watch it while she's away at work.
* Chihaya's least favorite sound in the world is car tires screeching. She says they send her into a panic.
* Before joining 765 Production, Chihaya was part of the chorus at her school. Being somewhat asocial, she only joined to improve her singing, as she did not like to sing with others.
* Chihaya has a very odd sense of humor, laughing loudly at the lamest jokes, almost making herself look a little foolish and childish to others sometimes.
* Aside from having no passion other than singing, it is noted that in THE iDOLM@STER Drama CD Scene.05 EXTRA STAGE 1 that Chihaya also has a strong interest in the Japanese Genroku Era art (called Kabuki) and Greek Architecture.
** In THE IDOLM@STER MOVIE, Chihaya is revealed to have picked up an interest in photography. This has also been shown in Platinum Stars and episode 9 of the Million Live! anime.
* Chihaya tries to avoid showing her cold or bad side towards Producer. Instead, she tries to remain cheerful and happy around him.
* Though Chihaya can be stubborn, often refusing various requests made by the Producer, when forced she will do virtually anything.
** Chihaya dislikes dressing up, especially in feminine clothes, which makes being an idol hard for her.
* Chihaya sometimes idolizes Ritsuko Akizuki as a role model due to Ritsuko helping out in the productions as well as teaching her how to understand and remember lyrics.
* Chihaya wishes to be fat sometimes. Her idea of singing or being a "vocalist" is actually an opera singer.
* Chihaya said once that she likes vanilla ice cream. This inspired Animate Cafe's New Years End 2020 collaboration menu for her, a vanilla ice cream added with blue syrup.
* Chihaya drinks homemade juice for breakfast.
* Chihaya has a habit of saying "Ku..." when she's upset or annoyed, and it has become a sort of catchphrase. In fan works and even in the anime, she often says it when her bust size is brought up.
* Chihaya shares the same birthday with Kogane Tsukioka and Miyu Mifune.
* Chihaya is self-conscious about her bust size (72). (See THE iDOLM@STER (anime) episodes 5 & 15, THE iDOLM@STER 2 Colorful Days [chapters 6 & 7], and THE iDOLM@STER Live for You! OVA.)
