I am confused for a moment as I don't recall anything like that, until I google the english name.... (Note: I don't really follow English/International fans except here on stage48)

Article just published by Modelpress about this new MV with the grads: https://mdpr.jp/music/detail/2114621 Google translation:
I love it, I like the way it sounds, the mix, the harmony of the vocals. Plus just seeing those treasured, those familiar faces - sort of - together again. Aye, Nogizaka does a song with a few graduates and AKB are like "Hold my lightstick"
Such a beautifull song, so nice to see that Aki-p's writing hasn't dryed. This is why I love AKB48 so much despite the changing roster, whatever happens, they will allways be there to deliver their positive message to the world.
AKB48 just released a music video for a new song, Hanareteitemo (Even When Apart; 離れていても) on YouTube. It features all currently active AKB48 members (minus Honda Hitomi), as well as Matsui Jurina, Maeda Atsuko, Oshima Yuko, Takahashi Minami, Shinoda Mariko, Itano Tomomi, Kojima Haruna, Yamamoto Sayaka and Sashihara Rino. if the video does not show watch the video here
When I close my eyes and hear their voices in unison it gives me the feeling that I am levitating. I like it!!!
OG Kami 7, Sasshi, Sayanee, and soon to graduate Jurina...WOW!! If only Mayu could have participated but it's understandable...and Paruru
The song is touching! Didn’t expect the presence of graduated members in this song and mv, and I totally forgot that there is no Paruru here, thought she is considered a legend in the group or maybe she declined participation.
Also, this song will be performed tonight on CDTV LIVE! LIVE! Mod note: removed oversized photo. Please thumbnail photos larger than 750 x 750 pixels.
