Meet Ichika, a 23-year old who doesn’t look her age due to her petite body type, and almost doll-like skin. She is proud of her extremely long hair, which she hasn’t properly cut since middle school.

She wears an alternative gothic lolita style. Despite her intimidating looks, Chiyo and Aya see past the surface: forming an instant connection with Ichika and introducing her to the rest of NETDREAM.

She thinks of herself as the ultimate fan of Coco, which sparks a clash between her and Kanna. Despite their differences, their shared enthusiasm and love for idols eventually creates a bond between them.

Her connection to Coco runs deeper than the “usual idol fan”, as her father managed Coco during her idol days. Due to being so close to Coco even as a child, she views Coco as a big sister; and even sang with her as kids. Ichika has conflicting emotions on this: although she admires her, a big jealousy is hidden within Ichika as she sees her father backing Coco’s idol career, which overshadows Ichika’s own dreams and ambitions as an idol.
