Her performance improved Rapidly due to the sensation she felt when looking at AKB48
Ayana was born and raised in Osaka, Japan until she was 5 y.o . She then came back to Japan when she’s at 2nd grade and lives there for two years. Due to the fact that she could speak Japanese fluently, Rena-chan became one of her best friend and unconsciously she always talks using Osakan dialect.
On the other hand, her innocent and no-ill intention nature makes her loved by the other members and thinks of her as a little sister, even by those who even younger than her. When performing together with AKB48, Ayana who usually very vibrant cannot hide her surprise with the high dancing skills AKB48 members had shown her. While looking at how good the MC session was brought by AKB48 members, Ayana was amazed and gave her a new inspiration,
“I have to try harder!” she thought.
Since then, the staffs admitted that she improved herself rapidly. When training, her mind is full of the hope that one day, she could go on a stage together again with the AKB48 members.

Growth in a year which can’t be compared with anything
“My days are delightful filled by TV and commercial shooting. But among all, the most delightful is theater since I can get the strength from the fans. Every day feels so packed,” Ayana said while remembering her anxiety welcoming theatre debut.
“There were only several songs that would be performed then, and suddenly I had to memorize 16 songs, it felt so difficult. Just the middle of setlist and I had already lost my power,” Told Ayana about the struggle in training during one year memorizing lyrics, choreography, and positioning.
“Now is different from the past. Everything is getting better. It can’t be compared. For example, I needed a month time on Heavy Rotation to memorize the choreography. But now, I am already progressing more and able to master the moves only in one day,” she said.
