Kanata is known as the group's "sleeping beauty", Kanata has the uncanny ability to somehow calm anybody in her presence. She formerly attended Shinonome Academy and has a younger sister named Haruka. Along with Shizuku Osaka and Emma Verde, Kanata works with the Love Live! School idol festival app. Kanata attends Nijigasaki on a scholarship, so she studies very hard every day, and works part-time at a grocery store. This contributes to her sleep deprivation.
