History Characters / STU48

* PlatonicDeclarationOfLove: She once shared in a Showroom live stream (November 27, 2022) that when she went for a short-term study abroad, she casually said to a male Chinese fellow exchange student that she'd known for some time "I love you" (我爱你) when she was about to return to Japan. He took it way too seriously and the next thing she knew, ''he had bought her a BMW and a house for them to live and go to university together in China''.

* KansaiRegionalAccent: Being from Hyogo, she can speak the dialect.

* KansaiRegionalAccent: Being from Osaka, she can speak the dialect.

* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish: She's conversational in English and often responds to overseas fans during live streams.

These are the tropes related to the characters presented by the members in their public appearances, including their individual works.[[labelnote:*]]Troping [[{{Kayfabe}} public persona]] is allowed on this wiki, even if it's based on the members' real personalities, as long as proper context is provided.[[/labelnote]]

* BuxomIsBetter: She likes to subtly show off her bust in social media and doesn't mind if other members grope her on camera.

* NiceHat: As the captain, she was given a ship captain's hat for her 21st birthday. She's also the only one to wear a sailor's cap in the "Shukkou" MV since she was the center, which many compare to WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck's.

* PassionateSportsGirl: She's a huge fan of Hiroshima Toyo Carp. She often posts pictures wearing various Carp merch and occasionally even wears them over her STU uniform. Her preferred lightstick color is the baseball club's red for both sticks. The club took notice and she got a supporting role in a [[https://tv.rcc.jp/tv60-koidrama/ Hiroshima local TV series]] about their fandom.
* PunnyName: Her morning Showroom live stream is titled in English, ''Morning Cocoa''.

27th class Actor's School Hiroshima student. Member of STUDIO.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Often changes her hair color, sometimes to blue or green.

!! Kadowaki Miyuna
-> "I present you sweeeet onions along with my sweeeet voice!"

* DancingRoyalty: She's considered one of the best dancers in the entire 48 Group and occasionally performs solo. Her solo performances are usually titled ''Dance Dance Onion''.
* GirlishPigtails: Her trademark hairstyle.
* KansaiRegionalAccent: Being from Hyogo, she can speak the dialect.
* MsFanservice: Accidentally or otherwise, she's had plenty of wardrobe malfunctions on her live streams.
* {{Otaku}}: She loves anime and had a voice acting cameo as a minor character in the anime adaptation of ''Manga/ChildrenOfTheSea'' with Otani Marina.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: The onions from her home Awaji Island, Hyogo Prefecture. It's part of her personal greeting and her Twitter handle, and her fans are called the Onion Corps (オニオン隊 ''Onion-tai''; they use the English name, for some reason). The 48 Group ''actually has a song'' called "Awajishima no Tamanegi" ("Awaji Island Onions", originally by the disbanded [=SDN48=]) and she has performed it solo.

!! Okada Nana
-> "Departure preparations are all... OK!"

First captain of the group until January 2020. Concurrently a member of Music/AKB48 Team 4. Runs the [=YuuNaaMogiOn YouTube=] channel with three other AKB members.

* {{Bifauxnen}}: Her usual look. Her costumes also tend to include trousers, instead of dresses, when feasible.
* ChivalrousPervert: She's really kind and caring, but there's nothing "covert" about her perversion. She often says she has the sense of humor of a middle school boy, and often gropes other members' breasts during concerts.
* CityMouse: She often plays this role in the music videos.
* TheComicallySerious: Her original shtick in AKB which has now been downplayed, although she's still the diligent type.
* ConflictingLoyalty: As a concurrent member of AKB and STU, she has publicly stated she wants to restore AKB's dominance as the main group over its sister groups, but also aims for the group she captains to grow to rival AKB. In the variety show ''Setobingo'', she insists that both groups are equally important to her and compares AKB and STU to her right and left hands... but [[AnalogyBackfire Kazlaser points out that she's right-handed which means that she puts AKB first]].
** A {{crossover}} between ''[=AKB48=] Nemousu TV'' and ''[=STU48=] Imousu TV'', billed the "Whose Okada Show" (literally "Okada of Which [Group] Show"), plays this up by having members of AKB (Utada Hatsuka, Taniguchi Megu, and Murayama Yuiri) and STU (Takino Yumiko, Iwata Hina, and Otani Marina) compete for the right to claim Naachan for their group. The winner is [[spoiler:STU, and the AKB members have to go home wearing "It's Okada Nana of [=STU48=]" T-shirts]] (of course, Naachan wasn't actually required to leave either group, whatever the result was).[[labelnote:*]]The final seduction segment might be inspired by the erotic late-night show ''Gilgamesh'', which was also hosted by this show's host, Ijiri Okada. Naachan herself pays homage to that show's catchphrase.[[/labelnote]]
---> '''TrashTalk by Ogi Hiroaki, host of ''Nemousu TV''''': So you're [=STU48=], huh? You look like country bumpkins, you're not cute at all!
* DoesNotLikeSpam: Her "Spams" are tomato and milk.
** In the aforementioned "Whose Okada Show", the STU team [[spoiler:earn points for specifying that her hamburger order must skip the tomato]]. However, [[spoiler:AKB's Murayama Yuiri counters by claiming that both of them had promised to get over that aversion, forcing the match to a draw]].
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: She pretty much has [[AGirlInEveryPort a girl or two in almost every sister group, including the overseas ones]], although her closest companion is still AKB's Murayama Yuiri. Of course, she has plenty of female fans too.
* TheFettered: In 2017, she unofficially appointed herself the AKB Group's Public Morals Chairman. This may seem laughably hypocritical at first glance, but what she meant was she wants to improve the media and public's trust in the group (since there had been many scandals brought to light that year) and ensure that members follow the group's rules (i.e. ''the group's'' morals), instead of being a MoralGuardian in the traditional sense.
* FriendVersusLover: While the three of them have a good relationship, AKB's Shinozaki Ayana often complains that Naachan took Murayama Yuiri away from her, even though Ayanan and Yuirii became friends first and Naachan is their junior. Ayanan even jokingly claims that [=YuuNaa=] shouldn't be allowed because it's a real romantic relationship and is therefore in violation of the group's romance ban.
* HappilyEverAfter: [=YuuNaa=] did a "Literature/SnowWhite" parody skit in their duo concert which ended with their characters getting married, which pretty much everybody treats as the real thing. The abbreviation "[=YuuNaaCon=]" became a DoubleEntendre, since ''kon'' (婚) also means "marriage".
* HeroesLoveDogs: Fans are quite familiar with her two Toy Poodles, Saran (black coat) and Miran (white coat), who often appear in her social media and even in her (and Yuiri's) self-produced photocards. [[IronicAllergy Ironically]], she's actually allergic to dogs.
* HopelessWithTech: One of her often-stated weaknesses. She's pretty good at taking pictures with her phone and always gets the latest [=iPhone=], but was stumped by slightly more complex features like Instagram Live. Since starting her [=YouTube=] channel, she got herself a high-end [=MacBook=] Pro and has been trying to overcome this to be able to edit her own videos.
* NiceHat: As the captain, she was given a ship captain's hat for her 21st birthday. She's also the only one to wear a sailor's cap in the "Shukkou" MV since she was the center, which many compare to WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck's.
* SiblingTeam: While most idols prefer to keep their families out of the public eye, her real younger sister Rina, who is not a public figure, occasionally accompanies her during live streams. It helps that Rina is also a good singer and, according to some, looks even prettier than her sister.[[labelnote:*]]Her entire family and a childhood friend are shown in her documentary, but she is mostly not in character there.[[/labelnote]]
* TeamMom: The most senior member after Sashihara Rino and former captain of the group.
** In her 22nd birthday letter, other members expressed their wish to become as close to Naachan as the likes of Takino Yumiko and Kai Kokoa.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She often talks about and indulges in chocolate mint-flavored food. She also tends to wear mint green clothes.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Often changes her hair color, sometimes to blue or green.
* YuriFan: She's well known for this. The stage play she produced for the group is full of ''yuri'' songs. She shares a PseudoRomanticFriendship with AKB's Murayama Yuiri, and their ConcertKiss in 2018's Coming of Age concert was a hot topic.
** She's also known to give encouragement to fans struggling with their sexuality, and doesn't mind answering very personal questions like whether she or Yuiri is the "top" (they take turns).

!! Sakaki Miyu
-> "Will you eat (''kuu ka'') udon with CUCA?"

Former popular [=YouTube=] cover dancer, now runs the [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDokp2sahIe_fwLSF67XMfA CUCA Channel]]. Drummer of Aoi Himawari.

* ChildProdigy: She taught herself dancing since the age of five and had independently accumulated 21,000 subscribers on her previous [=YouTube=] channel, which content she took down after she joined STU and later put back up.
* CookingShow: A large portion of CUCA Channel are her cooking videos.
* InSeriesNickname: She's gone by CUCA from the time she was an independent cover dancer. It's what her younger brother called her during their childhood.
* ProductPlacement: She occasionally visits Setouchi Region's producers of award-winning artisan food items, such as Yamaroku soy sauce and Shōdo Island olive oil, to learn how they were made and purchase them for her cooking.
* SweetBaker: She bakes various kinds of cake and bread.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She drinks a lot of coffee and cooks using olive oil in her [=YouTube=] channel.

!! Tanaka Kouko
-> "Kokkokko... Kokekokko!" (Japanese equivalent of "cockadoodledoo")

* {{Otaku}}: She's a huge fan of Music/HKT48's Matsuoka Natsumi. They have worked together on several occasions and Natsu also wrote her a letter for her 24th birthday.
