Description
Kaede Ichinose is a student and idol at Starlight Academy, introduced as the final member of the series' "main eight" cast. She transferred later than other main characters, debuting in Episode 33 of the anime's first season. Her enrollment coincided with auditions to become Mizuki Kanzaki's partner in the unit Tristar.
Born on November 23, she is 13 years old during the first season, aging to 16-17 by the fourth season. She stands 158 cm tall with blood type O and a Sagittarius star sign. Previously living in America, her father is president of the "Kaede Sushi" restaurant chain. Her popularity stemmed partly from appearing in its commercials, leading to her signature exclamation, "Yes! Kaede Sushi!" She was also part of the popular American children's idol show "Kids' Club."
Her appearance features cropped, curly red hair, rosy-pink eyes, and accessories including a silver pin with a gold diamond in her hair, a brown choker with a diamond accent, and a white bracelet. Her initial idol uniform consists of a pale-pink blouse with orange striped sleeve cuffs and lapels, an orange-checkered mini skirt with a pink petticoat, and brown stiletto boots.
Her American upbringing is evident through her frequent use of English phrases and her habit of greeting people with cheek kisses, sometimes surprising others. Outgoing and friendly, she possesses a strong fascination with magic, often performing tricks casually to entertain. She prioritizes fan enjoyment during performances and occasionally makes dramatic entrances, like skydiving into the Tristar auditions. Her favorite foods are hamburgers and California rolls, while she dislikes natto. Her special skills include dancing and magic, and her favorite colors are red and orange.
Her primary idol brand is Magical Toy, categorized under the Pop type. Her performances are characterized by an aura manifesting as bright, colorful toys and rainbows.
Key relationships include forming Tristar with Yurika Tōdō and Mizuki Kanzaki. She initially partnered with Yurika for the Partners Cup, overcoming Yurika's reluctance about reviving Tristar by demonstrating their potential. She was already friends with Mizuki prior to transferring. She nicknames Ichigo Hoshimiya "Strawberry" and influenced Ichigo's decision to study in America.
She successfully joined Tristar following the auditions and later became a member of the unit Magic Blood. She is the first main character shown with short hair and the only first-generation main character to receive her Premium Rare coord prior to her anime debut. She holds distinctions within the main cast: she has the fewest appearances, never performed in her basic coord within the anime, is the only main character without a solo performance, and has the fewest performances among the first-generation characters.
