i have some question in my mind yuri dont join General election for years. do she have some hater or anti in the past ?? i am just people who love her singing when she was a kid how can she pass that time ?? or no one really pay attention about it ??
She prefered performing in the theater. She even refused some senbatsu spots for that same reason, before finally joining for "Jabaja"
She had never ranked and decided not to "half-ass" it. (translation of her post announcing that she wouldn't enter in 2015) http://48.araishikeiwai.com/2015/03/murayama-yuirig-2015-03-29-2233.html

This morning it was announced that Yuiri has joined Avex Asunaro, the same agency as Naachan and Haruppi. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/539452bb3382db7f55c0fc337aa11b3165b965a4 https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2309865/full/ https://twitter.com/yuirii_murayama/status/1744606280038400056 この度、村山彩希は エイベックス・アスナロ・カンパニー に事務所移籍をしました! いろんな経験、挑戦をして 1人の人間としても もっと大きくなりたいです。 自分らしさを忘れず、 新たな一面を届けられる きっかけになればなと思っています! At this time, I, Murayama Yuiri have transferred to the the Avex Asunaro Company! I want to face a wide variety of challenges and broaden my experiences, and even grow as a human being. Without forgetting who I am, I hope it will be an opportunity to show off new sides of myself. ✨ Furthermore she now has an official website: https://murayama-yuiri.com/
I doubt it. I have not seen any indication that she has plans to leave in the near future. Quite the opposite, from her updated performance goals to her own prediction that she would be the last 13th gen remaining.
Yuiri is only the second member in AKB48 to achieve 10 years as a member of one team and one team only. The other is of course Takamina. One other 48Group member also has this distinction, Matsuoka Natsumi who had just over 10years in Team H before her graduation. All three members stayed in their original team until either disbandment in Yuiri's case or graduation for the others. Yukirin, Jurina, and Churi all made over 10 years with their original teams but had kennin positions along the way. Two SKE 6th gens Kumazaki Haruka and Kitano Ruka will achieve 10 years on a single team at the end of next month.
The Yuiri produced stage will finally debut on 22 February 2024. Looks like we don't have a thread for it yet, so i'll put my snarky comment here. nice to have a new stage to announce graduations from instead of the boku no taiyou all the time. tbh with the debut of the 19s, kks will outnumber the OGs, so the grad wave should settle. poor remi though, she's stuck with the olds now.
