Kanata Minato is a 15-year-old male student at an academy for aspiring idols and a member of the unit F∞F. He sports salmon pink hair with a small braid on the right side, green eyes, and a slim build, standing 162 cm tall and weighing 49 kg. He consistently carries Rabirabi, a rabbit plush toy cherished since his early career as a child actor, treating it as an essential emotional support partner.

Initially shy around strangers, Kanata radiates cheerful energy and instinctively soothes others, often bringing smiles to those around him. His unit regards him as a mascot-like figure. Once comfortable, he reveals a bright, compassionate nature and actively seeks to understand others' feelings to forge connections. Though outwardly childlike, he holds serious talent in performing arts, particularly expressing joy through dance.

Kanata's background includes childhood acting in commercials and dramas. He withdrew after an unspecified incident, fostering self-doubt about idol work upon academy entry. Fellow F∞F member Seiya Aido bolstered his confidence, enabling him to commit fully to becoming an idol and overcome hesitation.

Within F∞F, Kanata delivers energetic dancing and heartfelt performances. He evolves by tackling professional challenges like producing and selling CDs for a demanding academy requirement. This growth shifts him from relying on Rabirabi for comfort toward greater assurance onstage, though he retains his kindness and attachment to the plush. His interactions highlight admiration for Seiya's leadership and respect for Akira Mitsurugi's calm guidance.

Beyond performing, Kanata enjoys origami and appreciates historical Japanese songs for their elegant atmosphere. He dislikes mushrooms but favors meat-based dishes. His favorite character is the rabbit mascot "Warring States Usa-chan," aligning with his fondness for rabbit-themed items.
