## Bio

### Appearance

### Personality

Kanon is a sweet, nervous bubbly girl, always full of enthusiasm and energy. You can also find her annoying sometimes, but also amusing as well. Kanon was passionate to be an idol. She was scared to talk to new people. She sometimes lacks self-confidence when talking on variety shows and doing choreography. She was also very ambitious.

### Background

Kanon was born in Finland. She likes to run and sing in the fields, listening to the rhythm of nature. Her mom is a journalist who travels around the world. Her Japanese dad was deceased at a very young age and she never talks about him since it made her really uncomfortable. At the age of 11, she went to Japan because her sister open a flower shop in Japan and she doesn't like to travel to places too much with her mom. When her sister got an extra ticket to go to 2Skies performance, she became interested in the idol world and decided to attend Daybreak Academy with Sayomi.

## Idol Activities

### Aura

Kanon's aura contains colorful flower petals and music notes. There are only pastel fog and some pink petals all around her at the beginning of the song. At the climax of the song, there will start having color petals and flowers wreaths floating everywhere. The light pinkish and blueish music notes will soon appear.

### Ability

Singing is her specialty. Kanon loves singing when she is very small. She always sings when she was sad or happy. She likes to sing with the birds in the woods. People say that hearing her sing is like going to heaven.

The only thing she knows how to dance is a little bit of ballet, taught by a teacher in Finland. She is very slow at remembering choreography though. Kanon loses self-confidence in the steps she isn't too familiar with. But if she gets everything right with confidence, she holds an unbelievable performance, dancing like a fairy on stage.

She learns the flute and piano in Finland when she's young from her sister. Her sister can actually be a great musician, but she decided to just open a flower shop. Kanon helps her sister with the shop when she's free. Kanons can magically give you a flower and learn flower language. Customers always ask her for advice about what kind of flowers to buy.

Kanon read books when she was bored and likes to quote what others say. Sometimes she can give memorable speeches without thinking. Expressing her feelings is what she always does in her speech, thus making her speech more powerful and significant. Still, though, she didn't attend Gold Speech Course because she thought there are other places she needs to improve.
