    Her schedule recently have been pretty much, go to college, fall asleep once she get home, wake up pretty late night to study all night then go to school. And this is not taking team 8 activities into account.
    And she had to miss the majority of her HS yesterday due to having a bunch of tests. And her schedule is filled today so she'll be in Tokyo all day for this Sunday.
    So it just means that she can finally get some proper sleep once in a while even though her schedule is still the hardest in team 8(6 hours is proper sleep according to her so it's pretty messed up).

    A number of Team 8 members are. Riona, Pena, and Shiorin (I think). There might be others. Nao is done with hers.

    That's up to her. She's missed a few AKBingo episodes because of studies but I'd like to think she has things under control.

    IIRC someone in this forum said that She made a deal with her parents not to drop study activities if she get accepted in Team 8 audition, as at that time she was approaching final year at high school. And also it will be her last try for doing audition. Glad that she make it :)
    BTW it seems like AKBingo do shooting twice (or once) a month. We get the exact same members since lucky girl ranking (excluding the team 8 comedy special). It is been 5 episodes and counting. The next episode is also most likely to have the same members.

    She's been breaking her limits for a long time now but she's making it work somehow even if it's really hard. Shiorin, Maria, this monthsKasumin, Akarin, Ayane, Riona, Nacchan and Pena are also in college.

    Maria finally came out like 2 weeks ago and said the secret she had been "hiding" all along which was the fact that she goes to a university. And those fans that think she has all the free time in the world and should do as much SR as can always exist(Maria did the most SR among team 8 during the Renacchi SSK period so she would have done way more if she wasn't busy).
    And there have been periods where she barely sent any mobile mail and things like that so a lot of dumb rumors about her being lazy and or her not trying hard toward being an idol, so those rumors always get spread around whenever you disappear off the fan radar for a bit.
    Like during the TDC lesson period she was for the most part in school because there are classes she couldn't miss so she missed a lot of lessons and had to catch up with help of other members. And at the recording of Bunbun which was the day after TDC she had a test so she really hurried to get to her school after the recording was done and made it in time. And for the recording of episode 3 and 4 of Bunbun and LoGirl that happened on the same day, Maria had actually declined to appear in both of the things because she had a major test that day.
    But starting with Rinchan followed by Shiorin, Kasumin and now Maria it's really good that more and more members have come out and tells their fans that they are giving it all to make both ways work.
    Kasumin have a ton of upcoming testthis month and it's probably really hard for the older members that do it both way but I'm really thankful that they all decided to stay in team 8 and not give up their idol dream because without them the younger members would struggle. And it get way easier for members that comes out with it rather trying to hide it because whenever you are having a hard time you can now tell your fans about it on mobile mail and now people won't go up to Maria on her HS events and ask what she does on her off days(I remember a long time ago where Rinchan was super pissed because there were fans that went and ask what school she goes to).

    And the reason why Maria have been worried about telling the fans about this is because she's the type that thinks too much about certain things. As she has always try to not talk about her idol life with her friends because she doesn't want her friends to think that she uses her idol status and become someone far away. I mean she would often sit alone during lunch when she was in her second year of high school to avoid making her friend having to force themselves to be close to her so that they wouldn't be left alone when she is always away due to team 8 work/rehearsal.
    And this was a study intensive course in an all girl high school and she switched to an easier course for her final year even though her school is very against part-time job/entertainment industry so the tests and stuff was never fitted into her schedule but there was a teacher that supported her idol activities who become her homeroom teacher in 3rd year so school become a bit easier for her... Sadly that teacher died on Eight Day 8/8 in 2015 and never got to see her dance and sing as an idol because Gunma Tour happened 4 months after that.
    She also have a phobia against men(especially men in school uniform) due to being called Ugly on the way to her school in her first year of high school, where she didn't care about her outer appearance that day because she goes to an All girl high school and she was in a bit of a hurry so her hair was messy. But on the train station, some random guy just walk up to her and then said "Bussu" and then walk away to his group of friends. And ever since then she have been afraid of looking at men in the eyes and was having a really hard time in the beginning of her AKB career during HS events. But nowadays she has an idol switch that she put on for those things even though she still struggles and gets worried at times when she sees a group of young fans that they might be saying something bad about her.
    And without Sato Amina keep telling and cheering her to keep auditioning for AKB she would have given up and entered another idol group by now. Because Maria had actually passed other audition and have gone really far in them but in the end always gave them all up at last second because she wanted to be in AKB. She had failed 2 AKB audition before finally entering team 8. She was also the captain of the basketball club in middle school and played center but who cares about that.

    As for the reason why she didn't officially come out with it to her fans was because she have always been worried that some fans might go like "Why are you doing things both thing half without full commitment and is not focused on one thing" but her fans have been very supportive and her fans have of course increased over the course of this past 3 months.

    They usually record 4 episode for 1 recording day. But those outdoor rokes usually take a whole day for one episode.


    Rinchan personally really enjoys being an idol and wants to forget the fact that she goes to a university and never thinks about it but she still got a year left after this.
    Rinchan also went up another tier as an idol ever since her seijinshiki and is really going all out this year.
    She has always been the type that shies away from asking any favor from her fans and have always put team 8 first before herself. Like during Kouhaku ranking last year Rinchan was still like "It is alright for the fans to vote for me ?" so she didn't really want to bother her fans that much.
    But now she is in her full battle stance when she thinks of the times she has left. So putting the team aside, this year she isn't scared of telling her fans about her goals anymore.
    Which is to make even more people know about her and be it HS events, dancing, singing and even her feelings for the fan she wants to become the absolute #1 in everything.

    She thinks that she currently doesn't have the strength to get ranked in SSK due to lack of popularity and is lacking in a lot of area as an idol.
    So she wishes to slowly build something with the fans and making memories alongside them while she grows. Her fans are really heated up this year alongside her :lol:
