Personality
A popular upperclassman, Naomi has had a role in every Drama Club performance held since she began middle school. Naomi is well-liked for her outgoing and bubbly personality, but her frequents bouts of melodrama and histrionics can also prove tiresome to others. She is highly emotional and seems to overact both on stage and off.

Though she hides it, Naomi is a very self-conscious person, insecure about her tall and boyish appearance. Performing as an actress, however, gives her a chance to embrace her quirks and explore different facets of herself. She encourages Shizuka to open herself up through her writing, and in turn learns to be more open herself about her insecurities so that she can work through them.

Pre-Series
Naomi is a transgender girl, who was originally raised as a boy. She knew she was a girl from a very young age, and told this to her parents when she was in elementary school. Although her parents accepted her, she faced bullying from her peers, who teased her for coming to school in feminine clothes. Before she began middle school, her family moved to Mabuigen so Naomi could have a fresh start in a town where no one knew her secret. She meets and befriends her next-door neighbor, Mikune Gushiken, on the day they move into their new home.

On her first day of school, Naomi decides to audition for the Drama Club's first play of the year, as she always enjoyed acting. She is nervous, however, because during elementary school she was always made to play male roles, and she worries she will be stuck doing the same in middle school. She is delighted when she gets the role of a minor female character. Although she only has a few lines, she is elated to finally be seen as a girl both on stage and in her everyday life.

Naomi remains a passionate member of the club from then on, encouraging Mikune to join as a prop maker. The two are currently the oldest members of the Drama Club, and are still best friends.

Becoming Cure Madrigal
Naomi is the first member of the Drama club Shizuka meets. When Naomi catches Shizuka hiding in the corner, she beckons her to join her on stage, delighted to see a new club member. When she sees Shizuka carrying her notebook, she excitedly asks her to read it. Shizuka, overwhelmed by Naomi's enthusiasm, makes a break for the backroom.

Naomi becomes a Pretty Cure in the second episode of the series, where she gets into a minor spat with her co-star in the upcoming performance of Taming of the Shrew. When said co-star is turned into an Akuyakusha by Lyare, Naomi's inspiration at watching Cure Aria fight allows her to summon her own Revue Ribbon Royale, turning her into Cure Madrigal, the Pretty Cure of Emotion.
