    If you're not already aware, Nogizaka46's Shiraishi Mai will unfortunately be doing an online format for her graduation live after COVID-19 has cancelled Tokyo Dome plans (which was supposed to be for May).

    With Jurina also graduating soon, and the COVID-19 situation isn't going to get any better very soon, I'm concerned they may have to do something similar to Maiyan's. I don't think we'll be seeing an in-person graduation concert for Jurina either.

    I know Nagoya isn't as hard hit as Tokyo, but still...

    While this is a sad possibility but I think it'll depend on what her agency and SKE management will deem the best course of action (i.e. most profitable) . They can simply make her announce that she'll postpone her graduation until the threat of corona becomes manageable.

    Its not like SKE has a lot of activities right now that requires her presence, and its not like Jurina being an SKE member is hindering her from any solo work.

    At least she can have a proper graduation with fans she deserves at a later date.

    True.

    After her win, sure there was a setback with her getting sick, but I thought that once she was ok (around Sept 2018), she'll get the treatment from management a sousenkyo winner deserved.

    What did she get??

    Removed from senbatsu for the first time in No Way Man (they could have inserted her in the PV just like how Paruru in Be My Baby. There are also cases where a senbatsu member was not in the PV or had limited appearance due to other reasons.)

    Removed from SKE senbatsu for the first time. They gave the excuse that she was ill yet she was able to shoot a solo PV for the B-side.

    She got less opportunities in AKB. Excluded from Shitsuren Arigato.

    In SKE, even in the online shop and other promotions, they aren't using her as the face of the group anymore.

    Like they can't even wait for her to graduate.

    Well, I do agree that she deserved a proper graduation.

    And its not like her not graduating is hindering her from doing whatever solo activities she can get.

    At the end of the day, Jurina has at least solidify her celebrity status in the Tokai region, so worst case scenario for her in the industry is that she'll just be a regional celebrity.. Its not that bad I guess.

    To be honest .... I think in case of Jurina there is no way you can do things right as management.
    After the SSK Jurina is unable to perform because of health reasons, so, knowing what a single minded member she can be, pushing herself to the limit, that means the reason for her hiatus is serious.

    Now after a while, she's able to resume part of her activities .... if management then puts her full in the spotlight again, "the treatment from management a sousenkyo winner deserves", there is a (imho very) likely chance she'll have a regression.
    For sure everyone is going to blame management in that case for not protecting her.

    Participating in the A-side means a substantial bigger workload then being part of the B-side, it's not just shooting the PV

    I that case the would just give her an online graduation event

    I can understand your disappointment, but I think you might be a bit too harsh on management.

    I get your point, but like Jurinavenclaw pointed out, there were cases of members only being in the MV and not actually doing much promotion. I think it was Sustainable where Yuihan was in the MV but was not doing promotions because of her other jobs? And let's not forget the 3 No way man centers, who only did the MV but were not taking part in the promotions since they had to leave for Korea.

    It makes sense she wouldn't be center, of course, but just giving her a spot somewhere on the edge of 2nd row or something would be nice. They could always get one of their pushed young gens to replace her for TV show performances and other stuff she'd be unable to do. That goes both for AKB and SKE singles.

    for sure that would be seen as insulting to hard core Jurina fans ... 'she won the SSK and they put her on the third row!"

    I honestly don't think you are implying that it's a 'disgrace' that management is pushing younger members over Jurina, because it's almost a given that management will do that eventually, it's part of idol life. and to be honest, complaining about it with regard to Jurina is kinda ironic.

    Sure.. some Jurina fans may complain, but edge of 2nd row is better than removal from senbatsu.

    Its just a disrespect to everything Jurina worked for half of her life.

    As for not just let her have an online graduation, i dont think its them being nice to her. Why would they let go of the last chance they can earn something from Jurina?? She belongs to a non 48G affiliated agency, right?

    So basically, they lessened her appearances in activities and opportunities where she can have some boost in popularity (kouhaku, singles senbatsu, face of ske online shop, etc). Most of these things are not really physically impossible for her.

    Anyway, rant over.

    I understand in the grand scheme of things, Jurina is far from being a shafted member and she got a lot of opportunities more than what her popularity deserved in the early years of her career.

    Just sad that they can't let her spend her last years in 48G with the dignity usually given to members of her status.

    As I said ... I understand your disappointment .... but I think you are reading too much into it, most of it is a really unfortunate chain of events.
    Is management responsible for pushing her to her braking point? ... I dunno, probably, but I also think part of it is her character, I remember a clip where she was telling SKE that they were going to have to be better then AKB, that's of course commendable ... but the intensity of the delivery was kinda scary
    And don't forget her agency, it's their task to protect their 'asset' as well.

    Just as with Mayuyu, it's obvious people kind of dropped the ball here ... but then again ... that's a part of Japanese culture

    And the remark about earning from Jurina .... well, that's what every company does with their employees, hardly anyone is purely in AKB just for the fun of it, everybody wants to gain something
