Hey, even if it's 2 or 3 week old subject, I want to say that I don't think Macochan will graduate soon. Even if she was less present, she wasn't the more absent girl (3 seconds with Yukimi
) in Truly's PV. I'll be killed by Mako's lovers but I think she was too much on the front of the stage, and it was good to see the other girls.
And for Growing Up, I don't have the "Goodbye to our friend" feeling. It's natural to think about that (especially for the 5 last seconds), but I think she had to much importance in this PV for leaving the group like that. Usually, you try to minimize the role of the girl who'll graduate.
In fact, I really love this PV and the "Dance Shot version" confirmed one of my idea. The scene where Macochan is alone on stage is *the same* scene as in "Pretty Lie" where she's singing alone. Since they have made a so big story about Growing Up and Pretty Lie, maybe the PV's scenario was thought like that.
Also, I really think that Maccochan is the girl who grew up the most. When you saw the first flights, she was soooo shy (telling her name seemed difficult ^^), and now she's the girl having the most activity out of the group.
(Aipon grew also a lot, but since the beginning, imo, she was a true leader, a true Captain)
So for this reasons, I don't think she'll graduate immediately. Even if she does some things without PASSPO, she have to acquire more popularity to make a solo carrier, and she can have it with the group.
But you're right, I have a bad feeling about a graduation of a member in the coming months, and I'm already sad
