She's quite a surprise from the 2nd gen. Great voice and singing skill!

Definitely one to watch, she's impressive.

 

With that hair and singing skill, it's like Yahagi Moeka STU version

 

I actually haven't gotten to watching her perform yet, I am shocked! She is so good! I started liking her because I got a lot of her cards on 7 Narabe and she was really cute, but I barely watch SR or performances so I only saw her in photos so far. She is amazing! I am really really impressed. Well, she secured her spot in my top STU 2ki ranking.

 

Ikechan won the 3rd AKB48Group Singing competition!!! Congratulations

 

She was so overwhelmed by the moment that she burst into tears. Love her voice; really looking forward to her solo song & the single release by the finalists!

 

Yeah, so stoked she won - the other two girls who came 2nd and 3rd both KNOW they're great singers, so this went to the person it will mean the most to. And her voice is really strong - definitely a voice strong enough for solo work, and probably fairly adaptable to different styles and genres. Good for her!

 

Congrats Ikeyan!

I skimmed again through some press articles.
Surprisingly, right after her victory, she said she has never met Aki-p until now. Even despite of her 1st win

She seemed quite confident lol. You can see her full cover in the show here!

 

Yura attended the TV show "Chidori no Oni Renchan" on 08/06
The show has a challenge whose goal is to be able to sing 10 songs in a row, without missing a note.

she completed 90% of the challenge, had she succeed, she would have been the 1st feminine idol and youngest to do this exploit.
