[News] SKE48 Mass Graduation

[nori]

Sad times and so early in the year
Wish the girls all the best in the future.

Definitely did not expect Ogichan and Haramina, but expect the unexpected I guess. After the shock from Kumi's announcement now I'm actually prepared for any graduation (well I dunno if it was Mayu or Yuria) so I will just treasure the moments leading up to the final performance.

Thanks for all the joy and entertainment all these time girls and good luck for your future endeavours.

I just had stopped my tears when i come across this:
 

Kizaki Yuria 木﨑ゆりあ (SKE48)

でも、大丈夫(・∀・＞)
But, I’m okay (・∀・＞)

Everyone, good evening.
thank you very much
for the loads of comments!!!
It’s Kizaki Yuria. (・ω・)
At today’s KII stage
from SKE48
9 members announced their graduations.
“graduation”
no matter how many times I’ve experienced it
It makes me feel ambivalent and I can’t get used to it.
From when I heard about it up till today
I tried thinking about various things by myself but
The members who were my pillars of support
that they would disappear
I couldn’t imagine how it would feel.
They were always by my side
and I think it will be strange with no one there.
at our usual stages
our gazes would meet and we would talk
we’d get angry and they’d kindly praise me
I think it would feel weird that these seniors aren’t around…
but I’m okay!!!
or rather, I’m okay
although it is the only thing that I can say
but I’m okay.
If I say “I’m okay”
I feel that even things that aren’t okay will become okay, so…
I’m strong so I’m okay!!!
For all of the fans too
I think it’s too sudden and sad
so even though you’re sad, if you’re sad
Please become okay for the sakes of the graduating members, too.
I love everyone.
Yuria will work hard too okay!!!
Please don’t worry.
Now, and so I hope that
everyone will be able to sleep well…
Good night peace.
Good morning peace.

yuria (・∀・＞)peace

Almost had a heart attack when I saw this thread. I was afraid to click it because I thought Yuria's name would be among em. It's still very sad to see these members leave but right now I'm just so damn relieved....

[akaiseigo]

i have no comment about this but nine of them?!It's okay for me about the reshuffling,i can bear it somehow;but NINE?!This is terrible....   

[Datalanche]

What awful news.

Mizuki: Bummer but not terribly shocking. She's one of SKE's mood makers but always kinda been in the middle to back, senbatsu-wise.

Shiitan: Underrated, underused girl, and now she's gone. She's one of the "Management WTF she's awesome why not use her" girls in my list.

Kanakana: Poor girl lost her senbatsu spot when she got injured and never really got it back. :/ Bummer.

Ririna: Not very surprising, she got practically nothing in SKE48 except a lukewarm theater spot.

Kasusu: Damn, too bad. Girl had epic gravure potential and was generally entertaining.

Haramina: A great talent and she just sat there for the most part. What a waste. That's the one thing I can't stand about SKE48, Team E has so many great girls and they all just sit in the theater. UGH.

Emiri: She was cute but I didn't know much about her. I saw someone mentioned she said her dad died. That's really sad.

And finally, Ogichan: I have no words, my SKE fandom has been hit harder than ever. I haven't ranked in a while but she's definitely top 5. I had just recently seen the Shukan AKB episodes with her, Kinchan, and Matsurina. She's just such a lovely girl that brought a wonderful aura with where whenever she appeared. I am really, really sad to see her go.

[Melchizadek]

This is definitely a major blow. I'm especially sad about Ogichan and Kanakana. 

I will say, however, that I much prefer this getting 8 announcements over with all at once rather than drag them out the way NMB did last year.

Wishing each girl a bright future, and a sincere thanks
for all of their many contributions.......

I'm shock to see Kumi is going to graduate...

I mean she is one of the popular members and she also been on all the MG drama... from the first to the 3rd one...

She is also active in SKE drama... and also voice actress for Sonata at AKB0048...

Quite sad to see that happen but then since Maeda graduation..

It seems everybody else starts to think about their future... by going out from their comfort zone and trying to challenge themselves on the outside world.

Well all the best for all the members that going to graduate or already graduate in your future career...
