Personality
Ayumu is a hardworking girl that puts her everything into what she does. She is not very skilled in her school idol activities, but she continues to try her hardest. Sometimes, she becomes anxious about her capabilities, but she can be comforted by her fellow idols.

She is kind, innocent, and sincere, often responding to the mischief from Karin Asaka and Kasumi Nakasu in a pure manner, which throws the two of them off-guard. However, she doesn't do this intentionally and is truly a pure-hearted girl. She tries her best to be helpful to others.

She can also be rather clumsy at times.
