Nao Yokoyama

Nao Yokoyama is one of the new idols introduced in THE iDOLM@STER: Million Live! series. She is voiced by Yui Watanabe.

Personality
A cheerful and energetic girl from Osaka who speaks in Kansai dialect, Nao is what is considered to be a stereotypical Osakan person; like always keeping some candy for herself; though she not good with tsukkomi in a boke & tsukkomi routine. Nao is not a very bright girl, preferring to take action instead of thinking things over, and also has great confidence in her own stamina.

She is very forgetful, it isn't unusual to see her losing microphone during a performance or a note on which she wrote the schedule and often forgetting that she has a lesson, and sometimes forgets even what she just said a few minutes ago.

Nao is also a harapeko (a character who can eat a lot and eat often, similar to Takane Shijou), evident by the fact that she wears a shirt that has harapeko written on it and a few of her cards depict her eating something, and she also often complains that she's hungry.
