Miyata Manamo (Manamoti) / 2nd Generation

Best wishes for manamo.
Thanks for your hard work in the group.

I hope to see her in jobs related with literature.

 

Wishing her all the best.

Cheers!

 

The same thing was said about Meimei and the prospects of PB and hers is releasing quite soon. I'll hold my breath.

 

There is certainly still a chance. But I don’t think the situations are comparable.

With Mei, we simply didn’t know her intentions. She is rather quiet and doesn’t express herself with words often.

It isn’t really a matter of wanting to or not with Manamo. She simply may not be in the physical condition to do so.

 

I’ve been keeping track of which members have written about Manamo’s graduation. So far Kyoko, Nibu, Marie, Paru, Konoka, Suzuka, Manafi, Sarina, Ayaka, Mikuni, Kage, Miku, and Hinano have all written about her. It’s nice to read these other blogs to see how much of an impression Manamo has left on others

Nibu, Marie, and Miku’s were very heartfelt. Maybe it’s no coincidence that they’re my favorite members after Manamo T__T

 

Well, that was unexpected but feared...

Farewell my lovely, quiet, mysterious, sexy (as hell), intelligent and intellectual maiden! Farewell my Hinata 2nd gen oshi!

I will keep studying your lovely language for yet one more reason: To be able to enjoy your books, your future literature works in the language that YOU speak my fair lady...!

Thank you for your delicate aura and your subtle presence in Hinatazaka46. Thank you for being the gentle senpai among the 2nd gen.

Stay well, happy and strong you, oh most precious porcelain of Hinatazaka46...

 

I actually think the prospects look better now.

In an interview about her photo book, Mei claimed she did not do anything at all to prepare for hers- no dieting and no exercise- and even claimed she does not move her body around at all apart from during dance lessons, and doesn’t watch her diet and eats what she wants to.

Apparently Mei’s behavior was (is) all condoned by management, so I was wrong about the requirement for having to prepare for a book.

So even if Manamo can’t push herself too hard due to her physical condition, she could still release a photo book for her graduation.

 

Manamo fans... has anyone else been disappointed in the lack of info about Manamo's upcoming graduation? It's been three months now and we still don't know when she'll graduate, if she'll have a graduation performance somewhere, or really anything. She's apparently still active on mobame and on Instagram, but her blog has gone quiet. It looks like she's participating in Hinakuri, but who knows about kouhaku or anything next year.

I'm disappointed in how management has seemingly cast her aside. Contrast this with Bemiho who got a proper sendoff and was actually included in group activities leading up to her graduation... We can make the argument that Manamo is willingly sitting out for health reasons, but she's clearly not on hiatus. She posted a December greeting and is doing meguri for all TsukiMidnight dates (and yet they didn't even bother to update her official profile picture for TsukiMidnight either )

 

@moomookan Hi.

I can understand your concern and even your anger. I am sorry for all this trouble.

The staff members have been keeping a close eye on Miyata-san's health condition all this time and she has been in good spirits and even has been participating in the "meguri" events along with other members including 4th generation, with whom she has had a lot of interaction and smiles.

Miyata-san is going to have her last group activity at this year's "Hinakuri" event (12/18), it is her decision but her full participation in the songs has not been confirmed but a live speech. I hope you can understand.


I am sorry for the inconvenience and lack of information in time. Thank you for your support.

 

Manamo will be releasing a collection of 5 short stories titled Kirakirashi based on Manyoshu with some pictures from her trip to Nara. The release date is 28 Feb 2023
