Nakanishi has become a spokesperson the public face for an accessories brand called Solpenna, and she's now using her YouTube channel to promote it.

First an introduction…



…and then a 20-minute live stream…

…during which she talks about the brand and browses the online store.

Hrm. A paid product placement like Tsuji does is one thing; she gets her family involved and at least tries to make it interesting. This is simply an informercial.

EDIT: It seems she is more than just a spokesperson, she is also a stakeholder of some kind. This isn't just an Etsy shop, though. She must have partners or backers, because she couldn't have done all of that by herself.

2nd gen ANGERME member Nakanishi Kana made her own photobook with swimsuits called "Intium", for her shop "Solpenna Accessory". Release is 1/31

That song suits Wada well, both her voice in general and considering what her music has sounded like so far.
