It’s been reported that talent Satoda Mai is dating a baseball player from the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles, Tanaka Masahiro. According to event participants, they co-starred in a special New Year program this year, and hit it off right away.

The two stars are both from Hokkaido; Satoda was raised in Hokkaido while Tanaka went to high school there to play baseball. Satoda also participated in the chorus for Rakuten’s official support song. Based on these common foundations, it’s not surprising for many that they’ve become a couple.

Their relationship started turning serious this summer, as Satoda began introducing Tanaka as her boyfriend to her friends. Congratulations to the new couple!
