Kano Yamanouchi

Kano Yamanouchi was born on July 4, 2006.

She has a slim frame and small C-cup bust.

Her face is very pretty and her nose is described as "like Cleopatra."

When she was an idol called "Nonoka Tachibana," she had black hair.

After leaving the group, she dyed her hair blonde.

Kano is bold and always goes straightforward toward what she wants.

She has strong opinions and doesn't easily change her mind just because of others.

Sometimes, she acts without thinking much and rushes into things.

She is very optimistic, even when others think her ideas are not realistic.

For example, she once tried to push a super hard schedule and wanted to learn songwriting overnight even though she had no experience.

Her friend Mahiru Kōzuki once asked, "Kano, are you maybe really silly?" because of this.

She can sometimes be seen as thoughtless or too simple, but she is always honest.

Kano used to be a famous idol in the group "Sunflower Dolls."

Her idol stage name was "Nonoka Tachibana," and she was the leader and center of the group.

During her time in the group, Kano felt lonely as jealousy from other members made her isolated.

Especially with Mero Setō, she always got into fights.

A rumor that Kano hit Mero became the reason she quit the group.

When Kano was in elementary school, her parents got divorced.

Now she lives with her older sister, Mion Hayakawa, in an apartment.

Her mother, Yukine Hayakawa, works as the manager of Sunflower Dolls.

Kano is the main singer and lyricist for the unit "JELEE-chan."

She is passionate about singing and lyric writing, even if she can't compose music yet.

Previously, JELEE-chan was her solo project, but now it’s a team with her as the leader.

Kano is a big fan of illustrator Mahiru Kōzuki, who goes by the artist name "Yoru Kurage."

The group name "JELEE-chan" comes from a jellyfish painting Mahiru did when she was young, but Kano spelled it wrong.

Mei "Kim Anouk" Takanashi is a huge fan of Kano’s old idol self “Nonoka Tachibana," but has complicated feelings about Kano's new direction.

Kano lives with her big sister, Mion Hayakawa.

Her mother is the manager of her old idol group.

Kano is described as having a "Cleopatra-like" nose.

She is not good at composing music, but she tries hard to learn, even picking up books called things like "Composition for Gals: The Ultimate Edition."

She loves jellyfish, which inspired her stage name.

As an idol, she stood out, but also dealt with being left out due to jealousy.

Leaving the Idol World

Kano was once the bright center and leader of a famous idol group, "Sunflower Dolls."

She was known as Nonoka Tachibana.

Through jealousy and rumors, she became more and more alone in the group.

A rumor that she hit Mero Setō made things worse and led to her leaving.

After the scandal, Kano decided to quit and start over.

Finding Herself with New Friends

Kano wanted to do things she truly enjoyed.

She met Mahiru Kōzuki, a talented illustrator, whose jellyfish mural changed how Kano sees life.

Inspired, Kano started her masked artist life as JELEE-chan.

With Mahiru and other friends joining her group, Kano found meaning in making music and lyrics.

Facing Challenges and Growing

Even after leaving the idol group, Kano doesn't always have it easy.

Some fans like Mei "Kim Anouk" Takanashi are confused or unhappy about her new path.

But Kano keeps going, driven by her dreams and strong will.

She pushes herself to work hard, grow, and support her group, even if she sometimes acts before thinking.
