Marika Ito (伊藤 万理華, Itō Marika, born February 20, 1996) is a Japanese actor, artist, and model.[1] She is a former member of the Japanese idol group Nogizaka46.

Biography

Ito was born on February 20, 1996 in Osaka, Japan. Her mother was a fashion designer and her father was a graphic designer.[2]

She began her entertainment career in 2011 by successfully auditioning for the first generation of Nogizaka46, an idol group created as the official rival to AKB48.[1] As a Nogizaka46 member Ito performed in several albums, concerts, short films, music videos, and television shows, including the million-selling singles Influencer[3][4] and Itsuka dekiru kara kyou dekiru.[5][4] In 2017, at the group's sold-out first Tokyo Dome concert, Ito performed for the last time as a Nogizaka46 member.[6]

Ito's acting career began while she was still a member of Nogizaka46. She had a minor part in the 2013 movie Bad Boys J,[7] but her first major movie role was in Aizu (Eyes), a film based on a story by Ring author Koji Suzuki.[8][9] In 2017 she played a supporting role in Asahinagu, an adaptation of the manga Asahinagu, for which she had to learn how to use the naginata.[10]

While in Nogizaka46 Ito art directed and styled several of her own performance videos, which were included in bonus versions of singles and DVDs.[11] Shortly before graduation from Nogizaka46, Ito's first solo art exhibition was held in October 2017 at GALLERY X BY PARCO and featured photographs of fellow Nogizaka46 members, a room filled with objects meant to represent the contents of Ito's brain, and an original short film running on a loop.[12] In 2017 she also filmed her first solo commercial, for the app "リクポ" ("requpo"), based on a character she created and played in a Nogizaka46 performance video.[11] In 2018 Ito's photobook Étranger, for which she styled the clothing, was published.[13] She is also the image model for the MOOSIC LAB 2018 music and film festival.[14]
