Newly taken photos of Manami Ono in uniform and a handwritten profile of her, a new 5th generation member joining the idol group Hinatazaka46, have been released.
Ohno is 17 years old, born on May 5, 2007. She is from Tokyo. In her profile, she writes, "It still feels like a dream to be able to join Hinatazaka46, the group I love the most in the world. Now it's my turn to give back to everyone the immense 'love' that Hinatazaka46 has taught me."
The 5th generation members were selected to join Hinatazaka46 after auditions held in August last year. Eleven members passed, but one declined, leaving a total of 10. The oldest is 20 years old, and the youngest is 15. The average age is 17.9 years old.
Starting at noon on March 24th, a new photo and handwritten profile will be released every day at noon for five consecutive days. She will also appear at the live concert "6th Hina Birthday Festival" to be held at Yokohama Stadium (Naka-ku, Yokohama) on April 5th and 6th.
