A running joke referring the existence of a "Kokura prefecture" in Japan which share's the same kanji as Yui-chan's family name (小倉県). Hence fans are often jokingly referred to as the Kokura/Ogura Prefecture. Yui-chan visited this prefecture a lot during her debut single "Raise" tour.

The summer orihime is a reference to the meeting of Vega (Orihime) and Altair (Hikoboshi) that results in the astronomical "summer triangle" on Tanabata. Tanabata, largest festival in Japan, is a Sendai festival which occurs typically around August 6-8, and of course is Kaori's birth date

Loves manga, karaoke, PC. -- Especially dancing
Since her role in Lagrange - The Flower of Rin-ne- she is good friends with Asami Seto since they are of the same age and live in the same city and work in the same agency, she was also the one to convince Kaori and Yui Ogura to switch from Style Cube to Sigma 7e.
Has an older brother
Won "Best Rookie Actress" in the 7th Seiyuu Awards on March 1, 2013
Transferred from Style Cube to Sigma 7e on September 16th, 2013 together with Yui Ogura
I'm gonna be in Japan when this comes out so I'm probably gonna buy it so I can save on shipping costs and whatnot
To anyone whose been to Japan, do you know where I should go if I wanted to get brand new Blu-rays for the best price? Being an ignorant foreigner it's gonna be difficult for me to price match and I don't want to waste 1000 yen if I don't have to.
Yui-chan has been drinking age since last year (Drinking age in Japan is 20).
Updated anime and character relations, and fixed broken link to Seiyuuri translations. Seiyuuri has been doing accurate translations of Yui and Kaori's blogs for some time, so no need for my own terrible translations from Google Translate. ^^
Gosh everyone has been so lazy busy to fix up this club for the longest time. Looks other way >_>
And Gonzo... try and take advantage of a drunk Yui-chan and she'll kick your ass with her newly learned kickboxing skills~ :P
