__Hometown:__ Yamagata Prefecture, Japan

An honest and friendly country girl who loves ramen and apples, both being her hometown's specialty products. She grew up on her family's apple farm, giving herself the nickname "Akaringo" at a young age. After moving to Tokyo, Akari decided to hide her Yamagata dialect as she finds it uncute, but it occasionally slips when she is flustered or excited. She usually ends her sentences with "-ngo," thinking this quirk would make her popular in the city. Along with her dialect and her love for apples, her other defining feature is her ahoge shaped like apple leaves. In her in-game sprites and models, it can be seen moving on its own depending on the way she feels; other idols often wonder how it works. Additionally, she carries around a mascot called Ringorou (Japanese: りんごろう), who is said to be her family's apple farm mascot.

When initially getting scouted by the Producer, she is very flustered and doesn't know what to say. At first she rejects the offer, as she thinks that a cuter girl should get the chance to be an idol instead of her. However, after consulting with her parents, they actually push her to be an idol and to take lessons. Because of her parents' acceptance and Producer's confidence in choosing her, she gladly starts her journey as an idol. Her parents may have used Akari's newfound idol status as publicity for their apple farm, as she often brings her family's apples to the production. Having a humble disposition given to her by her parents, she does not think she has the skills to succeed as an idol and finds it hard to stand out. Despite this, she is a hard worker and very determined, wanting to clear all the obstacles in the way to reach her dream.

A special commemorating the 10th anniversary of the THE IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls franchise. The anime features all 190 idols from the series.
