**Hometown:** Tokyo **Height:** 159 cm Though she might give off the aura of someone who's confident in themselves, Karen is actually a shy and reserved girl. The reason she dresses in a flashy way is because she thinks if she dresses in such a way she’ll become less shy, which evidently hasn't worked so far. She also has low self-esteem, always referring herself as simple and having nothing that stands out. The reason she became an idol is similar to Yukiho in that she wants to change herself, but Karen also wants to become a role model for girls that have similar problems; to be proof that those who have low self-esteem might change themselves for the better.
