Graduation announcements thread

She doesn't give a shit about them so why would she bully anyone?

You mean like Erii or Mineyoshi?

 

Can't wait for next Rissen

 

NMB48 KKS member Odan Yui has announced graduation, she'll leave next month to concentrate on her studies:

Oh no, one less Idol sister duo power to rely on.

 

Team M Kawakami Rena anounced her graduation at her solo live today
https://ameblo.jp/nmb48/entry-12510826839.html

From what I get, she said she achieved pretty much every possible things she wanted to do and would like to go for other things.
She'll perform at the 9th anniversary concert then it will be her graduation stage (TBA)

 

And NMB first gen will be down to 2 members

 

Of the older groups, all of them still have people carrying the 1st gen flag:
AKB: Minegishi Minami.
SKE: Matsui Jurina.
NMB: Shiroma Miru, Yoshida Akari. (counting Kawakami Rena out in advance)
HKT: Still a healthy number of girls (10, but one is in Izone).

I wonder who will be the first to fly without any of the founding mothers.

 

^
I think of that all the time. It's no surprise Jurina is the last of 1st gen SKE. But I wonder if anyone ever thought Miichan would be last of 1st gen in AKB lol

 

She was one the youngest 1st gens if I am not mistaken. It would make sense time wise.

 

I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet, but a lot of JKT48 members have announced their graduation recently:

Team J: Michelle Christo Kusnadi
Team KIII: Viviyona Apriani, Jennifer Rachel Natasya
Team T: Adhisty Zara, Hasyakyla Utami Kusumawardhani, Syahfira Angela Nurhaliza, Thalia Ivanka Elizabeth, Sonia Natalia
Academy Class A: Stephanie Pricilla Indarto Putri

I think I got them all. I'm not used to their nicknames as compared to their names haha I'm learning, though...
Anyways, yes, it seems like a mass graduation of members in JKT.
If no one else announces graduation by the end of the year, 1st gen will have 3 members and 2nd gen will have 2 members


Makes me wonder now which one of the groups will be the first to have no 1st generation members...

 

NGT48's Sato Anju announced her graduation in today's "Yume wa Shinaseru Wake ni Ikanai" stage (evening stage).
Her last HS event will be on Sep 23, and her last performance will be in the end of September as well.
Seems like she'll leave the entertainment industry as a whole after graduating.

 

So umaumamiya graduates too...

 

The bold one, she is basically EXO's D.O in entire 48G world. Won 2 movie awards, her latest movie getting hit, and is listed in Indonesian Version of MCU That's why when she announced her grad, some JKT wota went angry...

 

I would be more surprised if she didn't announce her graduation soon after all the success and opportunities she has gotten recently. That cast list of the Bumi Langit-verse is quite amazing, I don't really follow Indonesian movie/entertainment scene but I recognize many names (some of Indonesia's most beautiful actresses there imo and Joko Anwar has prestige too).

JKT seems to be going the same phase as other 48 groups. Not only established older generation are graduating, the younger prospects are too.

 

And another one goes...
Takei Sara announced her graduation. She'll leave in the middle of October.

She was NMB's last 1st Generation Draftee. All of them already graduated/announced their graduation.
