Okabe Rin (Berin / Rinrin) / Team 8

Verinha noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

I guess the identity of Sizuk's producer has finally been revealed.

 

Happy Birthday, Berin.

Welp, it has to happen at some point. I'll be losing one of my all-time AKB / idol kami-oshis, but I guess she made it as far as was possible for her. She has/had potential for more, but management, u know
Thank you for everything, idol Berin, off to new adventures, Okabe Rin! I'll be watching from far away, but as close as possible.

 

I was just woken up by a large crack of thunder and saw the news.

I'd thought perhaps the announcement may have happened at Birthday Event,I cannot say I'm massively shocked but I am still sad.

Happy Birthday Rin-chan!

I wonder what these exiting news will be.

now I am depressed!

 

I can't say I'm completely surprised at Rinrin graduating, but I'm a little sad about it. it's true that she's been here for a long time (10 years) and considering that she's 25+, and she has achieved a lot, she's successful, she can have her own career, it's really not surprising that she would graduate now. But I think she is important to the group and to other members and I was hoping that she would stay at least one more year T_T with the group having much less members now, I think her presence was even more important, it will be different without her.

I will definitely miss her, I've been liking her since Team 8's debut (I remember when they were first introduced and Sasshi said that Rinrin's voice sounds like Acchan's, that was when I noticed her for the first time and searched about her, in fact, even the first reply to this thread is about that moment lol). it's been so long >.< Now both of my "oldest" favorite members (Yukirin and Rinrin) are graduating around the same time ._.

Her message on Twitter was really nice btw! I like that it's handwritten I do think she had a very nice and complete career in AKB. I hope she gets a beautiful ending like she deserves!

and of course... Happy Birthday Rinrin!!!

 

Best of luck to Berin. One of the best Eito member.

Enjoyed her variety skills along with Niizuma and Waga-san. Hope to see her on other shows.
Good work, daughter of Ibaraki.^_^

 

Rin-chan has said on twitter that this current single will be her last for both Senbatsu and handshake event.

She used to complain about stuff with Yuasa. Come on, if not the producer you should at least do something with Shell.

 

didnt know all these years that shes older than Mion Nana Mogi and Yuiri.not sure if its bcs shes from eito who majority was younger than those 4. but i swear she looks way younger than her age,LOL.

always thought the eitos will be the next aces or "kami 7" of the new gen. but oh well. good luck out there Berin!

 

Oden...

Even Ayane is older than Mion.
