  • In school she was good at Japanese, math, and social studies but bad at science. She once ranked first in her class in Japanese, but last in science.

• She did ballet outside of school since she was young.
• She worked at a pizza parlor and as a barista before becoming an idol.
• She has poor eyesight and wears contact lenses.
• She has liked idols such as Nogizaka46 since she was in high school, but her school did not allow students to work part-time as entertainers. She decided to apply for the Hiragana Keyakizaka46 auditions as soon as she graduated.
  • Additionally, according to her "Kyun" solo bonus video, her parents had banned any idol, anime, or manga content when she was in high school. They were also opposed to her auditioning after she graduated because she had just been accepted into university. Her parents made her write and sign a letter that promised she would graduate from university within four years. Only then did they agree to let her join the group.
  • After Manamo entered Hiragana Keyakizaka46, her mother came to watch a live performance. She enjoyed it so much that she began to earnestly support the group, and now regularly watches Takase Mana's Showroom lives.

• She has expressed support for the LGBTQ+ and non-binary communities in her official blog.
