Biography: Shibuya Kaori was a shy girl seeking change in herself, raised in a traditional family, this neat and tidy girl was scouted during a school performance in Okinawa, where she stood in for a sick school idol. Ever since then she was included into the school idol group and took on the role of vice captain, when the time came for the 1st generation Oracle auditions she was part of a failing group who the director an emotional man decided to cut out the entire group of six for their "Cookie cutter appearance, and pretentious attitudes of just role playing an idol" The director demanded girls that we fresh original and new to the idol scene, five of the six would immediately leave and return home with the exception of Shibuya, who on an impulsive drive argued for her right to be in the audition, and so the director only replied to her with a single sentence "show me that you want to be an idol, not just to act like one" with that Shibuya left the audition room to the relief of the staff and the uncaring opinion of the director. Surprisingly returning not to long after the girl took on the director's interest when she removed her hair with shears, cutting it short, while confidently asking for her right to audition. Being the only girl in the room with short hair she declared her difference and she was allowed to audition becoming one of the first Generations members.  As an Idol and a member of 48 Shibuya she has a strong will and leadership qualities, overcoming her shyness as she became one of the main pillar members of 48.

Why you made this idol: I have a deep respect for Takamina the former captain or AKB48 Team A and Mariko who is currently the captain of team A, so I wanted an idol that would take all these good qualities they had and add alittle bit of my own to make an Original Idol that is loved and respected by her members. And of course I love Idols! it's why I got together with friends to make this group in the first place
