Yajima Maimi is a Japanese idol born in Saitama, Japan. She is a member and the leader of °C-ute, a J-pop group within Hello! Project.

Yajima Maimi first joined Hello! Project in 2002 as one of the 15 children chosen from the Hello! Project Kids auditions after performing "Momoiro Kataomoi" by Matsuura Aya. She made her debut the same year in the movie "Koinu dan no Monogatari", taking on one of the main roles as an antagonist. The following year, she became a member of the one-shot unit ZYX, where they released two singles before they became inactive.

In 2004, Berryz Kobo was formed with the intention of rotating the girls throughout the unit. Yajima did not make the original pick, and the idea was eventually dropped. The remaining girls eventually ended up forming C-ute in 2005. Despite not being the oldest, Yajima still became the group's leader after Umeda Erika turned down the role. The group did not make its official debut until late in 2006, with its first official single released in February 2007.

Aside from leading C-ute, Yajima is also the sub-captain of Little Gatas, the Hello! Project Kids' futsal team. She is also considered to be one of the fastest runners in all of Hello! Project, often coming first in the running events at the annual sports festivals and listing running as one of her hobbies.

Yajima also currently co-hosts C-ute's weekly radio program, Cutie Party. She took over the role when Murakami Megumi left the group. In 2008, Yajima was selected to be a member of Hello Project's new unit, High-King.

She is a former idol under Hello! Project as the leader of ℃-ute and leader of Hello! Project

On May 27, 2017 Yajima Maimi announced that after the group disbandment she would join the M-Line Club, alongside other former Hello! Project members, and would pursue an acting career.

On November 7, 2022, she registered marriage with actor Mikata Ryosuke. On March 16, 2024, it was announced that she was pregnant with her first child.
