About Chibo

Chibo (ちーぼう), later known as Chitose Chino (千歳ちの), was a former idol and member of the idol groups You'll Melt More! and Let's PocoPoco. Chibo joined You'll Melt More! after auditions on September 21, 2013 as part of the 3rd generation, representing the colour orange.

Chibo is a fan of orthodox style idols like Morning Musume, and describes herself as a DD, meaning she enthusiastically supports many idols at once rather than focusing on just one. She is also a fan of fellow underground idol group BELLRING Shojo Heart. In 2014 she formed a duo unit called "Escalator or Elevator" with Mizuho Asakura from BELLRING, releasing their debut EP "Entrance EP" on October 29, 2014.

On April 27, 2016 it was announced that Chibo would graduate from You'll Melt More! on July 10, 2016. However, this would not be a regular graduation, she would instead transfer to a new group under the same label called Let's PocoPoco. With her transfer came a new name, Chitose Chino (千歳ちの), under which she would perform until Let's PocoPoco disbanded on January 21, 2018, after which she left the public eye.
