Kaede is a mature and mysterious idol. She is very quiet, never saying more than necessary. Her hobbies are visiting and relaxing in onsen. She's also is a huge fan of lame puns and can continue for hours with this if the Producer can’t stop it. She can instantly smell the difference between body wash and shampoo products, has heterochromia, and has a beauty mark under her right eye.

Once Kaede has had a few drinks, all of her common sense goes out the window. She gains a devious and manipulative persona when intoxicated. She will push aside any notion to quit drinking and is not above encouraging the teenage idols to drink with her. She loves to enjoy expensive or really tasty drinks, particularly wines.

While her everyday speaking voice is soft and quiet, her singing voice is powerful and resonant.

There are many idols with long-established talent agency 346 Production. And now the company is starting a new program, the Cinderella Project! 
 
Girls leading normal lives... 
 
They are chosen to be aspiring idols and see another world for the first time in this Cinderella story. Can they all climb the stairs that lead to the palace? 
 
The magic begins now...
