Natori Wakana (Wakanyan) / 11th Generation

Not another 11th generation member 11th gen is now down to Nattsun.

We lost Aaya, Shihori, Ricchan and now Wakanyan in one year. AKB48 11th gen is indeed a dying generation along with SKE 1st gen, AKB 1st gen, SKE 5th gen, NMB 3rd gen, AKB 4th gen and to a lesser extent AKB 6th gen.

I would totally be sad if another SKE48 5th gen announces graduation.

 

That was unexpected, just now when I've began to recognise her. Nothing to do but AKB is losing members like a tree loses leafs. Maybe they all realize there's no place for them.

 

Oh the 11th generation.. Didn't guess that she would graduate. I wonder why..

 

First Saki and today Wakanyan... All the girls I am interested in are leaving... I am so done...

But still, wishing her the best

 

damn, just one 11th gen left. It's speculated Natsumi will also graduate too given her busy schedule lately.

 

OH NO ! My favorite 11th gen why why why no more gravure form her...
Oh while hope she find a better career after graduate from AKB48 wish her best of luck.

 

aw It's sad that Wakanyan is graduating ;w; I notice her more while following team B these past years, I saw her in some stages and I find her likeable. She's 20 right now, so she could have stayed a bit longer, but maybe she found something else to do. I saw on her wiki page that her dream was to be actress, I don't know how old this information is, I wonder if it's still her goal...

I actually like her voice, here's a performance of Temo Demo no Namida with Yukirin and Wakanyan, Wakanyan sounds good!


if the video does not show watch the video here

I also like her version of Yokaze no Shiwaza (from her KKS days) :3

Here's another one, it's a mix/edit of Wakanyan+Minarun versions.

I guess she will have her graduation stage in the next weeks. I wish her the best after AKB!

 

she was way too underrated as a member. i wasn't really surprised when i saw that she announced graduation, i was rather angry and sad, i'm gonna miss her

 

good news: wakanyan has a twitter @wakana_67
shall i try to translate her tweets?

 

She's leaving too soon i cried very hard when she announced graduation.....
Wish you best of luck in your new career, my Kami oshi

They haven't announced Wakana's graduation date? Will they wait until 66th NHK Kouhaku a la Yamada Reika and Mizuno Honoka?

 

Wakanyan announced that she has autonomic ataxia (it's a neurological sign consisting of lack of voluntary coordination of muscle movements that includes gait abnormality. Ataxia is a non-specific clinical manifestation implying dysfunction of the parts of the nervous system that coordinate movement, such as the cerebellum.) and seems like this is the reason of her graduation.

And now there is an official date

*insert huge sigh here*

I am hopeful that the other 11th gens will come back to send her off

 

Goodbye Natori Wakana! I wish you luck in the future!
