Story
Nao is first shown as the easygoing best friend of Laala with much knowledge of idols. Unlike Laala, she had a true desire to become an idol some day. She surprised her by showing her the PriTicket she just received, but no sooner is it confiscated by Headmistress Gloria. This upset her but nothing came of it.
Over time she became a fan of Laala, but had no idea her best friend was also the idol she admired until Laala told her. Nao took the news harshly due to her jealousy over being unable to become an idol herself, but they soon make up after Nao realizes her own feelings and how much Laala wished to tell her but couldn't yet.
Later, Nao gets her PriTicket back and becomes an idol.
