• For her stage performances she used perfume a lot, even sprayed it on the soles of her heels when walking on the silver bridge. While rehearsing, she would think about "what kind of perfume this person would wear".
• In 2018, won the Newcomer Award at the Japan Arts Festival Awards for her role in Goodbye, Charlie.
