Missed the opportunity to start with Hinatazaka's latest generation? You're never too late to follow their rocky journey in proving themselves, and of course their varying personalities. 🏃♀️ 👇
#日向坂46四期生 #hinatrivia
Ishizuka Tamaki (Tama-chan)
🏟️ Born August 6, 2004
🏟️ Hyper and playful, members claim to have been "harassed" by her, but...
🏟️ She practices, dances, and updates her fans twice as hard!
🏟️ Baseball and Giants nerd, she would rant about it on her blogs and messages.
#石塚瑶季
Besides having the outgoing and playful personality as one of 4th gen's moodmakers, she's also their best dancer. Having learned dancing for 14 years, Tamaki showcases sharp and clean movements when she dances. Even TRF had no complains!

Konishi Nanami (Konishi)
🐺 Born October 3, 2004
🐺 The aspiring fashion leader of the 4th gen
🐺 A cold beauty looks-wise, but...
🐺 She loves comedy, loves to tsukkomi anything from members to the TV, and a self-proclaimed dummy!
#小西夏菜実
The fans nicknamed her "The Final Boss" when she was first getting introduced due to her strikingly cold gaze. However, she's shown her crazier, "gyaru"-ish side on their variety shows and loves doing back-and-forth with the fans! 🐺
#小西夏菜実
Shimizu Rio (Riotamu)
🫶 Born January 15, 2005
🫶 The gen's athletics monster. No one comes close!
🫶 A Koushien-level cheerleader back in school, now the leader in not only performing, but also cheering and hyping both the members and audience!
#清水理央
The other members noted that Riotamu has a wilder streak of... ripping her sleeves off when it gets too hot, and of course she's also ready to bring that infectious wilding energy on stage! 🫶🔊
#清水理央
Shogenji Yoko (Shogeko/Yoko)
🍫 Born February 14, 2007
🍫 Can play the flute, has brown belt in karate
🍫 As the ace, she puts out an expressive performance, but...
🍫 To her genmates, she's the mischievous little brother who playfully bothers anyone and everyone!
#正源司陽子
Part of Yoko's charms apart from her center charisma is her boyish mischievousness, finding it fun to bother the other members, like terrorizing them with kisses. Hiraho is her regular victim. 🍫
#正源司陽子
Takeuchi Kirari (Kirarincho)
✨ Born February 20, 2006
✨ An innocent country girl from Hiroshima, her mother was worried "Tokyo would turn her a city girl"
✨ Contrary to her appearance, she's soft spoken, but she's got a strong core. Careful not to get her mad!
#竹内希来里
Kirarin's cuteness contrasts with how snappy she can be when things don't go as expected. She's quite the serious person inside, and that's why Tamaki finds joy in chasing after her for no reason in the dressing room. ✨
#竹内希来里
Hirao Honoka (Hiraho)
⛵️ Born July 31, 2003
⛵️ From Tottori; was Haruyo's schoolmate ⚾️
⛵️ Plays the piano.
⛵️ Her tagline is "Hira-hou (砲/cannon)" while shooting an air-cannon is a hit among the fans, and she has surprised many with her word sense and oogiri skill!
#平尾帆夏
When Hiraho was first introduced, fans expected her to be a sweet and meek girl, but fittingly as a huge former member Watanabe Miho fan, her skillful talk is a welcome addition to their variety shows. She also has a solo local Tottori radio! ⛵️
#平尾帆夏
Hiraoka Mitsuki (Micchan)
🪼 Born April 9, 2002
🪼 Her name can be read as "jellyfish", as her father is a fisherman in the small town of Mihama, Fukui.
🪼 An avid reader, she's known for her eloquent word choice as the gen's leading spokesman and on her blogs!
#平岡海月
Having failed the auditions for Hiragana Keyaki, the rest of the Sakamichi auditions that came after, Micchan made it in her final chance. She's now the reliable eldest in the gen that makes sure they're all in line. 🪼
#平岡海月
Fujishima Kaho (Kahorin)
🐑 Born August 7, 2006
🐑 The chill Kahorin from the north - Hokkaido - likes to sleep and laze around, but...
🐑 She's the 4th gen's songstress, and a charismatic performer!
🐑 She has done calligraphy work for their shirts and stage shows!
#藤嶌果歩
Her genmates named her the best singer in 4th gen. However, Kaho herself admitted that she never formally learned singing, though she came to like doing it! Perhaps it just comes naturally to her, just like her stage presence. 🐑🎤
#藤嶌果歩
Miyachi Sumire (Sumiko/Sumilegend)
💐 Born December 31, 2005
💐 Tamaki gave her the nickname sumire-gend, much to her dismay (she loves it).
💐 With her sweet voice and azatoi streak, she's the next in line as the burikko chara. Expected from a Miyata Manamo fan!
#宮地すみれ
As a fan of Manamo and Nao, Sumire isn't new to the group's traditions, and it shows in how it takes no time for her to befriend the social recluse Nao... and how this burikko act gives you a sense of deja vu. 💐💘
#宮地すみれ
Yamashita Haruka (Haruharu)
🌱 Born May 20, 2003
🌱 Formerly working for an office, she has the grade 2 of Nissho bookkeeping license
🌱 A saint to her genmates because she never gets angry, ever!
🌱 Though an airhead, check out how intense she is on the stage!
#山下葉留花
Haruharu's tendency to only see the good in things on top of her peculiar word choices has gotten her into troubles from time to time, like the one time she got ripped off into buying a pillow with multiple unrelated add-ons! 🌱
#山下葉留花
Watanabe Rina (Rinashi)
🎀 Born February 7, 2009
🎀 Currently the youngest
🎀 Previously in a YouTuber group, she's shown how calm she can be on stage and in front of the camera. She even guided the older members on Tokyo's train commute despite coming from Fukuoka!
#渡辺莉奈
The cool Rinashi is literally an ice-type as the coldness of the icing didn't get to her, even when it sent members older than her screaming! Naturally, the older members are begging her to act more like a baby member sometimes... 🎀
#渡辺莉奈
Though Kishiho announced her withdrawal from the group on December 7 for reasons concerning her well-being, she will always be a part of Hinatazaka's 4th generation. Her eccentric thinking and love for all things biology are hers and nobody else's in Hinatazaka46. 🌻
#岸帆夏
The 4th gen made their debut in HinaAi on October 2022, episode 183 and 184. They also have their own ongoing show where they learn the ropes in variety, Hinatazaka ni narimashou (HinaNari for short).
Check their latest MV here! ☀️

Zenbu of Tokyo, Hinatazaka46's first non-documentary film, was released in October 2024, 7 years after their first TV drama, "Re:Mind"! It's about the adventures of 11 high school girls in Tokyo, starring the group's 4th generation! #hinatrivia #ゼンブオブトーキョー
Hinatazaka46's two documentary movies have been screened in cinemas, and several members have appeared or voice acted for films. However, this is their first fiction film featuring an entire generation!
The characters came from Nagano for school trip, and Yurika has prepared an ambitious itinerary to visit all the famous places on their free day. However, her four group members found themselves stranded in parallel world versions of Tokyo!📷 #正源司陽子
Baseball is the most popular sport in Japan. Many entertainers are also baseball fans, either real or as a gimmick, and among the major idol groups, Hinatazaka46 is particularly associated with the sport!⚾ #hinatrivia #佐々木久美 #高本彩花
It could be traced back to a blog post by Kosaka Nao in 2019, where she revealed her love of baseball and dream of throwing out a ceremonial first pitch! Co-hosts Audrey duo, who favor her and are huge baseball fans themselves, pledge to support her aspiration!🦕 #小坂菜緒
Since then, they've done baseball segments many times! The same year, they also visited Miyazaki Prefecture, where many NPB baseball league teams go for spring training! That first visit eventually led to the Hinata Fes concert in 2024!🍒🧸 #高本彩花 #加藤史帆 #ひなたフェス2024
Aside from piano talent, Hirao Honoka also inherits from her parents a love of gaming. Watching her father play the role-playing game Dragon Quest is a fond childhood memory of hers!⛵⚔ #hinatrivia #hinagamer #平尾帆夏 #ドラクエ
Honoka often visits venues related to the Dragon Quest games, and even formats her blog posts to resemble the games' retro menus! The poster for her Hiraho Radio program also follows a similar format!📻 #ひら砲らじお
When Dragon Quest III, originally released in 1988, was remade in HD for modern gaming systems, Honoka was one of the entertainers interviewed for a special feature! natalie.mu/music/pp/dq3-02
Hinatazaka46's motto is "Happy Aura", as they strive to bring a happy and energetic atmosphere to their audience. In 2018, it was made into a song, with Kato Shiho as center (lead singer), and there are many stories behind it!✨ #hinatrivia #加藤史帆
"I wish under the Sun
For the whole world to be happy
For others to feel love
And like you and I...
Smile!
Yeah, Yeah, does it reach you?
Yeah, Yeah, are you having fun?
The important thing is to look forward
To give it all we have and be excited!
...
Yeah, Yeah, does it reach you?
Yeah, Yeah, can you feel it?
No matter the time, it's always overflowing with light
Happy, Happy Aura"
The MV features them as "fairies" who appear to brighten up the day of everyday people, such as office workers!🧑🏻💼🏢🧚🏻
♡wisTar♡ is the first Hinatazaka46 unit produced by one of their own, Hirao Honoka! It debuted on 2024's Hinatazaka 46-hour TV livestream, with the song "Koi no Train"!🛤️ #上村ひなの #小西夏菜実 #河田陽菜 #平尾帆夏 #hinatrivia #hinaunit #wistar
"Softly pumping, my feelings start to melt.
The scent of soap rides on the sea breeze.
Love is all about timing—
In a single minute, fate can change.
Not a local, but an express train—
Where will it take me, this love train?"
The unit consists of Kamimura Hinano as center (lead singer), Konishi Nanami, and Kawata Hina! With three such oddball members, the name is short for "What is She Thinking?", combined with "star"! youtube.com/live/EEu5P9IKE…x.com/shimaryoichi/s…
In April 2024, Saito Kyoko became the first title song center (lead singer) to leave Hinatazaka46. Her farewell song, "Boku ni Tsuzuke", symbolizes her new journey as braving the high seas for fortune and glory!🌊 #hinatrivia #hinagradsong #齊藤京子 #僕に続け
"People won't venture toward a future they can't imagine themselves
With rumors and legends, they wipe it off the map
Tomorrow will be a new continent, different from today
No matter who tries to stops me, I'm setting off now
