Early life and education
Nanami Hashimoto was born on February 20, 1993, in Asahikawa City, Hokkaido.[3] She has one younger brother.[4] In an episode of Nogizaka Under Construction, Hashimoto revealed during her "graduation" from Nogizaka46 that she grew up in a poor household, saying, "Gas, water, and electricity were cut off on a regular basis due to nonpayment of bills."[5] However, she added that even so, she grew up in a family passionate about education, and was instilled with basic academic skills.[3]
During her school days, she was active in the basketball club from elementary up to high school, and at one point became the club's vice president and manager.[6] Since then she has become a fan of the Japanese basketball league and the NBA.[7] At that time, her future career goals were to become a civil servant or a lawyer.[8]
After graduating from high school, she went to an art university in Tokyo to study spatial design.[9]
