Born on August 19, born in Sapporo City, Hokkaido, in his second year of employment, his hobby is sauna.
Looking back on last season's activities, Mr. Arita says, "It was a year in which I truly felt the joy and happiness of being able to cheer for The Fighters at the stadium with the customers." As for the reason for continuing her activities this season, she says, "It was a year in which I received a lot of inspiration from my seniors and classmates, and I reflected a lot on myself, saying, 'I need to work harder,' so I strongly felt that I wanted to enliven the stadium again as a The Fighters girl in a way that surpassed my current self and grew more."

[The Fighters Girl]
In 2004, when the team moved to Hokkaido, the cheer team "The Fighters Girl" was formed.
In addition to livening up the stadium with their performances and cheering on the team, they also work as stadium tour guides, promote the team in various media, and teach at the dance academy. They also actively visit kindergartens and nursery schools across Hokkaido and participate in events, acting as a bridge between The Fighters and fans and the local community.
