@innosu posted a translation of an interview of Miichan and Mako. Among other things, they talked about the new Team K shonichi and Naru. Here is the Naru part: 【Kojima】Ee... Before I entered AKB I didn't have any experience at all, so when people complimented me on my dancing I am really happy. This time I am actually a double-center with Naru-chan (Kurano Narumi). I got to research a lot of things. (Small grin) 【Minegishi】That's good. I wanted to know, what do you think of Narumi? 【Kojima】Narumi~ First, I am scared of her, even though she is younger than me (laugh). 【Minegishi】I know that (serious face). ―That's because she is the type who overworked herself. 【Kojima】Her performance is really powerful. Even within the K group that is good at performing, she really stood out. And it is not my place to tell her that "You don't have to carry the team by yourself", because that is how Naru-chan is. So for me who is next to her, I don't want to think that I need to show the same amount of power or I would lose, so instead, I got to research (laugh). http://stage48.net/forum/index.php?threads/kojima-mako-kojimako.5234/page-179#post-1511359

Casual Clothes Point Check! I feel the calmest when I’m wearing monochrome. The last three pairs of shoes that I’ve bought have all been black. Recently, I’ve also bought a lot of berets. Because I cut my hair, you know. I have about five or six. Whenever I’m in Tokyo and have free time, I’ve started to go clothes shopping. My Memorable Hashtags: (Instagram) #KumamonChocolateAndMe I want everyone to eat this Most recommended! Hometown gourmet Taipien I cut my hair at the beginning of the year! Since I joined Eight, this is the shortest it’s ever been. As for why I cut it, I’d been thinking that I wanted to change myself. I wanted to do something that would trigger it, and it was something I could do that I’d be able to physically see (lol). But, not only could I physically see it, but I also changed internally. I began to focus more on fashion and makeup. Until now, I’ve only placed importance on my performance, but I’ve changed in that I realize that I need to focus on other things as well. It’s like I’ve awakened to being a “girl.” It’s a bit late, though (lol). Actually, I was afraid of cutting my hair. I asked some fans ahead of time, and the majority didn’t want me to do it. I wore a ponytail for the past four years, so that impression of me is really strong. But since I cut it, I’ve been told “It suits you!” a lot, so I feel reassured. Somehow, I was ranked second in AKBingo!’s Lucky Girl Ranking! I was wondering what my good luck would be, and I entered my first senbatsu with “Jaabaaja.” I was dropped for the following single, but I do think that ‘18 was a good year, and that from now on, I’ll keep working on improving my femininity. Naturally, I won’t forget about my performance power, please don’t worry!
good for you there is someone in Nara who cut her hair and now become a "boy" she basically said she doesn't admire anyone

she looks so much like the TPE Team TP twins with those bangs (Miyabi even has the mole, at almost the same place)
I thought she was trying to copy obata yuna’s hairstyle Naru must be really, really happy with her role in Majimuri Gakuen... She posted FOUR pictures with Oguri Yui in her twitter. Trust me. This is a miracle. https://mobile.twitter.com/Kuranoo_Narumi_/status/1025588668675764224/photo/1 https://mobile.twitter.com/Kuranoo_Narumi_/status/1029014476199084032/photo/1 https://mobile.twitter.com/Kuranoo_Narumi_/status/1024473886698553344/photo/1 https://mobile.twitter.com/Kuranoo_Narumi_/status/1022091906308759555/photo/1
It's not that rare. She's someone that usually posts "sets" with many members when they have an event together, including Yuiyui. Unless you mean specifically Twitter, since it's more common for her to release those on 755. ===================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================== Macharin's Twitter Spoiler: Sources https://twitter.com/macyacyarin/status/1029621872780967936 https://twitter.com/macyacyarin/status/1029709268067540992
She is getting smart now. Finally. Really? I didn't follow her that often on 755 and was the first time I saw Naru posting pictures with Oguri on Twitter

https://twitter.com/mak0_k0jima/status/1029992902275911680 good thing Mako isn't in PD48 anymore, else Knetz would call it "Tokyo-born girl doesn't even know her teammates have Twitter". And she still doesn't follow her.
