Yukiho Hagiwara (萩原雪歩 Hagiwara Yukiho) is an idol from 765 Production who lives

in Tokyo. She was introduced in the arcade game.

She has made appearances in every console game that features 765 Production, THE
iDOLM@STER Million Live!, and THE iDOLM@STER Million Live! Theater Days.

She was originally voiced by Yurina Hase (長谷優里奈 Hase Yurina) up until THE
iDOLM@STER 2, when Azumi Asakura (浅倉杏美 Asakura Azumi) took over the role.

A timid and shy girl, Yukiho Hagiwara, 17 years old (16 in 1st Vision), comes from
a very strict traditional Japanese household. She is easily frightened, especially
by boys and dogs. During most hardships or problems she usually just starts to cry
without first looking for a solution, and because of this she is very popular among
the boys at her school.

Despite her not really having what it takes to be an idol, she was able to
successfully win both auditions at 765 Production because one of her friends
submitted a resumé about her without permission. However, she built up enough
courage to pass the second portion of the audition herself.

Yukiho's family consists of herself, her father and mother, though there are also
many of her father's disciples living at the mansion. Her father is against the
idea of his daughter being an idol, sometimes even bad-mouthing the producer out of
jealousy.

Yukiho loves to drink and make Japanese tea, and also likes to write and read
poems, though she never has the courage to share them with others.

No one, not even Producer knows where her father works or what he does for a
living, and Yukiho herself will not share this information. It is stated in-game
that her father has many subordinates who work under him, and THE iDOLM@STER 2
shows her father working with a construction company, but Yukiho refuses to
elaborate further, even insisting that her family is "completely normal". The game
also introduces the DLC item "Hagiwara's Helmet Set", which heavily resembles a
construction hard hat.
Coincidentally, the Yakuza is traditionally very involved with Japan's construction
industry.
According to the arcade version, her email address is
mother_of_thousands...s.n.o.w@idolmaster.jp . Mother of Thousands is a succulent
plant with the Japanese name 雪の下 (yuki no shita). "Yuki" means snow.
When stressed, Yukiho often says she's going to dig a hole and bury herself (穴を掘
って埋まってます). This led to many jokes among fans, and she is associated with
shovels in fan works. In fact, her "Variety Animal" costume has her dress up as a
mole. In Famison 8-bit iDOLM@STER 04, she even hosts an attraction themed around
Dig Dug.
This also inspired Animate Cafe's New Years End 2020 collaboration menu, a matcha-
flavored tiramisu with the spoon stylized like a shovel for her special birthday
menu, which can be seen here.
Yukiho sees Takane Shijou as having a very strong will, and idolizes her as a role
model, even when they were rivals in THE iDOLM@STER SP.
Yukiho and Makoto Kikuchi are best friends.
While Yukiho's design has stayed fairly consistent throughout the games, in THE
iDOLM@STER SP her hair was much more orange than usual.
Yukiho is from the Adachi-ku (足立区) area of Tokyo.

Yukiho with a UFO.

Yukiho's favorite food is grilled meat.
Yukiho still believes in Santa.
For unknown reasons, she is tied to aliens and UFOs, and seems to believe in them.
In THE iDOLM@STER (Xbox 360), a UFO can sometimes be seen behind her in commus.
She's the cover girl for Volume 3 THE iDOLM@STER Gravure For You!, which features
an easter egg in the form of a UFO visible behind the buildings in the Winter
Street Corner stage. Perhaps as a nod to this, she also features heavily in the
event commus for the alien-themed Pikopiko IIKO! Invader in THE iDOLM@STER Million
Live! Theater Days.
She shares the same birthday and basic trait of fear towards people of opposite sex
with Seiji Shingen.
She also shares the same birthday with Eve Santaclaus.

Yukiho is also known to be "Yukipo" by her fans for unstated reasons. There's also
a meme called "Double Yukipo". The meme is based on Yukiho's Puchidol counterpart
Yukipo from the Puchimasu! series.
The meme surged in popularity when Azumi Asakura took over the role of Yukiho from
Yurina Hase, leading to several videos online where two versions of Yukiho voiced
by both actresses would sing together.[1][2]
