Nao Furuhata (古畑 奈和, Furuhata Nao, born 15 September 1996) is a former member of the Japanese idol girl group SKE48.[1] She is a former member of SKE48's Team KII, and a former member of AKB48.

Career[edit]

Furuhata was born in Aichi Prefecture, and passed SKE48's 5th generation auditions in October 2011. Her audition song was SKE48's Aozora Kataomoi.[2] Her debut was on November 26, 2011. On August 29, 2012, she was promoted to Team E.[3] She held a concurrent position in AKB48's Team K from April 2013 to February 2014.

Her first SKE48 Senbatsu was for the single Utsukushii Inazuma.[4]

In February 2014, during the AKB48 Group Shuffle, it was announced she would be transferred to Team KII and her concurrent position would be shifted to Team A. In the 2014 general elections, she ranked for the first time, placing 55th with 14,634 votes.[5]

On 26 March 2015, it was announced that she would be relieved of her concurrent position in AKB48.[6]

Furuhata released three music videos in collaboration with the metal band Bridear on April 4, 2020, where they covered songs from SKE48 and her 2018 solo EP. The two acts were originally scheduled to perform together in Tokyo and Osaka, but the concerts were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan.[7][8]
