After an unacceptable snafu with AKS, Gachi de Tsurimasu! is back!

That's good that Gachi de Tsurimasu came back. That's something I can see Kanakichi continue to hang onto past her graduation, considering how she's really the only one capable of adequately fishing. Of course, they could pass it onto someone new and follow their journey to learn how to fish which would be fun as well, but this might be one of the rare things that Kanakichi gets to keep. (Unlike her DoDame regular which will most likely go to Haruna)

Kanakichi already mentioned she has a bit of work secured at the recent YNN broadcast post-grad, and the timing of her and Ripopo's graduation is most likely an attempt to capitalize on the biannual show shakeups that happen in April/October. Yoshimoto went around before Nana's graduation to TV stations (around March if I remember correctly) and handed out her profile to production staff to advertise her, so they no doubt intend to do the same for Kanakichi and Ripopo, only with a bit more planning time. Regardless of where they're going to end up respectively, I think this February graduation should be taken as a sign that they want to get ahead with the two and it'll also allow NMB as a group to move on cleanly before they release their next single.

 

And Nandeyanen Rank in number 17 on last week AKB48G Request Hour, what a nice graduation gift for her

If Nandeyanen rank in this year NMB Request Hour, i wonder they'll bring back kanakichi for performing it again

 

Well, they can bring Nana back in NMB 2015 RH 3rd day. So who knows?

 

Kanakichi recorded her final episode of Manabukun today. Guess there's only about a month left after all...

 

The final piece of Kanakichi merchandise with NMB48 is going to be a towel.

This thing looks so awesome.

 

That fish towel looks so fresh!

 

Wow, it really does look great! Must reel this in! (even though it's already sold out sorry )

 

Otsukaree sama Kanako,thanks for the hard work in NMB

and there's a big annoucement kanakichi first job post graduation is co-hosting TV show about fishing called "big fish" and the program will start on April

 

She's been on Big Fishing once a year since 2012. It's a show that's been around for 30 years, so it's really great for her to get a regular spot on such a steady program. Excellent start to her variety career!

 

Yosha! Ganbatte Kanakichi!

 

This scene is disturbingly funny during this week YNN live special. Anyone think the same here?

 

I'm looking forward to seeing how they use her in this, but I haven't watched yet. Got a major backlog these days.

Kanakichi made her first post-NMB appearance on a Kawaiian stream. A number of serious topics like sexual harassment and American presidential nominees as I understand and if I'm not mistaken she's in the process of moving to Tokyo.

She and Ripopo will also be MCs for a Kawaiian live event next week. Busy busy!

 

I haven't seen that YNN segment yet, but I definitely will now. lol

Good to see that she's getting work. What's the Kawaiian live event about?

 

Just a concert with various idol groups. If it's like Yuipon's previous ones, they'll do standard mc duties on stage, but also some backstage games and topics with the groups.

 

Another post graduation job for kanakichi
NMB48 Fans Club@Namba48_FC
Kanakichi and Keicchi will starring a TV Movie titled [Ai MY], aired on TV Tokyo oimf.jp/movie/movie_tv…

 

Kanako will be debuting a YouTube channel featuring Fishing. (mentioned at 01:42 in the video)

My guess is she was invited/called by Akarin's manager to the company to film a eating session with Akarin. The challenge was to eat 25 pieces of Kentucky Fried Chicken ??!!

My Japanese is bad so if the info given is not correct, my apologies in advance.

She also spoke about some NMB48 memories with Akarin during this eating session. She looks great and still having the great smile.
