    Hi everyone, is there anyone who has Ikuchan's individual photo for Hadashi de Summer. Perhaps, their uniform or the cd cover? Thanks a bunch! :D

    Hi everyone! Been a long time lurker here at stage. Since I've already made a first post in the general discussion thread, I figured I should post here in my oshi's thread as well. Nice to meet you all. :chuffed:

    Anyway, I haven't seen anyone post this yet, but they came out with the poster for Ikuchan's musical, Romeo & Juliette yesterday. The photo was taken by Leslie Kee. Ikuchan's looking more and more beautiful and mature these days.



    P.S. Sorry if I'm not supposed to post pics like this. Please tell me if I need to edit. Thanks!

    Mod response: photo is too big. If you want to post it make sure it fits within our limits. Thank you.

    Yes she is. On Nogi documentary she said, she love musical stage and want become musical actress. She already take part in stage play before joining nogi.

    Regarding her role in Les Miserables, It seem, she get a lot bitter reaction from netizens. Ppl look down on her because she is idol. Like, they cast her because she bring money etc.


    while fans, talk about her graduation. Personally, with strong competition within 46G, Nogi wont able win over Keyaki if Ikuchan graduate early.

    i think that is why her last single is musical like? to train her, and show she can handle and be an musical actress?
    but did those people see and listen to that mv/song?
    i dont know anything about how muscial/stage play should be but she already in a few stages, she has clean loud voice and already showed her talents. maybe that is why she casted for the musical?
    these netizens need to watch 1st than comments.
    iku is already not so typical idol in terms of personality and talent.

    agree with @mayuri91 here, feels like these people are pre-judging basing simply on idol stereotype without bothering to check her resume lol. *shrug it can't be helped I guess, albeit in a sense this low expectation make it easier to impress too lol

    I'm personally not worried about graduation; iku always been involved in musical, since pre-nogi & consistently since joining as well. she enjoys being in nogi enough to not graduate after entering uni, so I don think she will with her simply continuing her prolific presence in the musical field. I love that she's going to play Cosette, & Les Miserable is one of my all time favourite read. Can't wait to see her shine here! <3 <3 <3

    With all the musicals Ikuta will be doing next year (2017), the 16th single would seem to be the ideal time for her to return to center. She's going to be busy so management should utilize her fully before her other obligations get in the way.

    Just kidding, I'm sure Ikuchan will blow them away in no time.

    It's not new actually. When Nogi member like Nacchan, Ashurin, Nanamin, and Sayurin got their modeling contract, some netizens also throw salty and skeptical reaction.

    To be fair, for professional level, Ikuchan's skill not that fierce yet (on idol level, arguably she is idol with most high speech). But she have experience prior her Nogi day, and she still young enough to advance her musical acting skill. Cosetta is important step for her, i hope she can deliver it well, and become staple musical stage actress. let's cheer her:)
