THE iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Self-Introduction

"Hey~ Producer-san, Saya… Since the day we met, I couldn't get you out of my head… That's why I couldn't refuse this offer! I'm counting on you, Producer-san♪"

Character Description

A cutesy young woman with a sweet way of speaking who has her eyes set on the Producer ever since she first saw him. Her interests are always switching around, but it seems like she's always interested in a shopping trip. While always trying to be cute, she isn't the type to ignore other idol's cuteness in favor of her own, such as praising Yuuki Otokura for also being cute in lines where they share a unit. While generally preferring to wear cute outfits as that's how her personal style skews, she's not opposed to wearing cooler, more handsome outfits if the Producer recommends it. While only being a model previously, she's very open to other idol work, such as variety shows, and is also quite skilled at acting. Saya also runs a blog where she talks about her work and the things she likes.

Saya used to be a reader model for magazines, and ended up switching over from modeling to becoming an idol after hearing her model colleagues speak ill behind her back, describing her as being too intrusive and trying to get all the focus on herself by being cute. In truth, Saya had no such intentions; she just wants to be cute, no more and no less, but believes through her experiences that the cuter you try to the appear, the more people will think that you're actually just putting on a show to get people to like you. She also seems to get quite frustrated when referred to as "burikko", a term referring to women or girls who acts cute by playing innocent and helpless, possibly because it's something she's been called in the past. After the Producer re-affirms that she is truly cute, she becomes fascinated with him. Despite her worries about how people will perceive her because of her ambitions to be cute, she still wants to be an idol for the people that truly love her.

While having a poor experience with some of her past model co-workers, she does have a close friend from her model days that she's still in contact with and gets excited to see at lives. Likely due to her past troubles, Saya often worries about people liking her, and while not a particularly lonely person, she doesn't like being forgotten about. However, she's working on growing away from her worries about people liking her, bit by bit, as in her Theater Wide comic for her first SSR, she admits she doesn't really care about the opinions of antis anymore; instead, her goal is to make those who say they don't like her think she's cute, even if it's just for a second.

In the tie in Cinderella Girls Theater skits, Saya shows a severe lack of stamina when training with Ema Senzaki and Rumi Wakui. To help her out, she has recently started taking protein supplements stating that they are easy to mix in with food and have a variety of tastes.
