Future ambition: Actress
Together with Kobayashi Marina and Nakamata Shiori, was the first member of her generation to debut at the theater.
She is an only child.
Member of the now-disbanded Drama Club.
Due to her small size, she was called the mascot of the Melonpan Alliance and the original Team 4.
She was scouted by Stardust Promotion when she was in 5th grade of elementary school while walking in Harajuku with her mother.
She worked as a child actress and junior idol from 10 to 13 years old. Her first successful audition was for a Canon printer advertisement.
She was a member of the idol group Power Age when she was 12 years old. The group disbanded after one year.
After her former idol group Power Age disbanded, Stardust Promotion refused to renew her contract. She joined another talent agency, Box Corporation, but after two years they did not renew her contract either. She said in a 2013 interview that this period was difficult for both her and her mother, who took Miori to auditions every week and handled all of Miori's paperwork, on top of working her own job and doing housework.
When she passed the audition for AKB48, her previous talent agency had already made plans to dissolve Miori's contract with them. Miori had been informed two months prior, but did not have the courage to tell her mother about the agency. Instead, she told her mother about it on the same day she told her that she had been accepted into AKB48. Miori said her mother did not know if she should celebrate or be upset.
Her nickname (Lemon) comes from her love of lemons and her ability to eat them raw without flinching.
The "fresh lemon" mentioned in her catchphrase means "top idol". She was inspired after she saw a pile of lemons in the grocery store, and thought the lemon on the very top looked freshest and best.
When she received her concurrent position in Team N, she created a version of her catchphrase using Kansai dialect. She changed "Fresh Lemon ni naritai no!" (フレッシュレモンになりたいの！) to Kansai's "Fresh Lemon ni naritai nen!" (フレッシュレモンになりたいねん！).
She is known to have a small but strong head. Her special skill is headbutting others, which she demonstrated on episodes of AKBINGO!.
She sleeps with a stuffed Funassyi doll and takes it with her during trips.
She loves the color yellow and has many yellow goods.
Her favorite idol is Michishige Sayumi of Morning Musume.
Her first concert unit was as center of Nagisa no Cherry during the unit shuffle of the Surprise wa Arimasen Day 2 concert.
Even though she had already been an AKB48 member for 4 years, she received her first original and center song, ONEW no Uwabaki, while holding a concurrent position with Team N.
She, Murayama Yuiri, and Mukaichi Mion went hiking in June 2015 for an AKB48 Tabisho Shoujo episode called "Mountain Climbing Trip of Former Child Actors". The three members had all been child actors in the past.
Appeared in the music video "Tokyo Love" by Night Tempo: Youtube Link.
