So Ripopo are going to leave? I'll miss her. But I don't think she'll get her graduation song neither in single nor album, because she announced her graduation right after NMB's new single with its full track is fixed, and the next single is in next spring.
I feel the timing of the announcement was not too great... Like right before her photobook is released, so people may end up canceling their orders. Right after the tracklist for the next single is announced so the chances of her getting a graduation song are highly unlikely. I did not think that Ripopo was stagnating, but I guess her current rise in popularity was not enough to keep her in NMB? Well, I wish her the best in her future endeavors.
eh NMB48's variety queen and with the greatest body eveeeerrr D: nooooooooo Takamina twitter :" again , happy birthday and about your graduation announcement...good work , let's work hard and cheer for each other"
NMB小谷里歩、卒業後は“玉の輿”目標「石油王と…」 Spoiler 今月13日にNMB48からの卒業を発表した“りぽぽ”こと小谷里歩(21) が17日、都内で行われた『小谷里歩ファースト写真集 蛇口』発売記念イベント前の囲み取材に出席した。幼いころから貧乏で、同写真集も“貧乏”をテーマ にしたという小谷は「玉の輿に乗りたい。卒業してから募集します」と宣言し「全世界で玉の輿を探します。石油王とか」と大きく掲げた。 卒業時期はまだ決まっておらず「大人の方のがわかってるので、任せている」と説明。「たくさんテレビに出て演技の仕事がしたい。47都道府県、あわよく ば世界」と今後の方向性を明かしつつ、“貧乏キャラ”では「やっていけたらいいけど、千葉県の可愛い子がすごいですよね…大家族で。私も犬8匹飼っている から大家族です」と、dropの滝口ひかりを引き合いに対抗意識をみせた。 現在も家族5人での生活で「お布団がなくて毛布一枚ずつ、この冬越せるのかな」と不安そうな小谷はほかにも、驚きの“貧乏”エピソードを連発。家が風で 揺れる、肉を食べられず家族が貧血になる、極めつけは「近所の焼肉屋の前に窓が空いてて、そこで煙だけ食べて帰ってます」。思わず報道陣からから同情の目 を向けられると「笑ってください、ふふふ」とケロリとしていた。 同写真集では秋元康総合プロデューサーのアイディアにより、大阪の下町のボロアパートでの暮らしをイメージした撮影をはじめ、着ぐるみ姿でティッシュ配 り、港の倉庫、お化け屋敷など、驚きのロケーションでビキニ姿を披露。「過激になりたくないといったけど結構、過激。おしり丸出しだし…」と恥ずかしがっ ていた。 http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2059326/full/

I got Ripopo's photobook yesterday. I implore you - get it. There are certain photos where she gives off this serene Annin vibe. And she is stunning throughout. It's a fantastic photobook, seriously. Hoping she may do another once a graduate, because I would get that too!

Speaking of the photobook, I purchased Jaguchi a while ago - and I was really impressed. Ripopo is a natural beauty and the pictures are so hypnotizing. An amazing photobook indeed!
She did, surprisingly. Although I am really confused. Is her new name a stage name or supposedly her real name?
It's sad to see "Graduated" in front of her name on the board. Good luck going forward. Hopefully she'll stay active on Twitter/Instangram.
Yamada Nana's real last name isn't Yamada. I am sure it happens all of the time, especially when a girl's family wants to stay private.
Ripopo's graduation pamphlet. Quite impressive. http://nmb48matome.livedoor.biz/archives/46771392.html
