Momoka is the eldest daughter of the Kagura family, a lineage that has served as keepers of a local Shinto shrine for over 300 years. The family is renowned for their specific style of Kagura-mai (sacred dance), said to have been taught to their ancestor by a Kitsune (fox spirit) in exchange for a promise of eternal servitude.

Her quirky and playful personality, combined with her cute and charming on-screen presence, have endeared her to fans worldwide. This persona has been showcased through her social media posts, variety show appearances, and interactions with fans.
