After watching the recent Maru C (the spider episode), I'm convinced Marippe and Gekidan Hitori are secretly dating. Watch Mari closely when she says "today I was really dead or alive" to Hitori at the end of the spider segment, or check out how Hitori obviously fakes that he can't see the ghost in the picture to get Mari lean in closer to point it out. 
Mari seemed rather determined when she mentioned during her book release that she'd like to be married before she's 25 and that's less than half a year away.
I just see so much chemistry between the two on the show, and he can really make her laugh. A woman loves a man that can make her laugh right? 
I understand that it's a tv show, that it might all just be on a professional level, and that the chemistry they display is just for show business. But they've been working together almost three years now that there's bound to be some intimate feelings to develop right?
Maybe I'm looking into it too much because the only exposure I get of Mari these days is mainly through watching Yaguchi Hitori. Oh well... if they do end up hooking up, I think they'd make a cute couple 
I noticed as well, after a while she stopped with the standoffish reactions( which was half the show). Now she just laughs
at his craziness. If you look at the pictures of him out of character, he's a good looking guy, pretty ripped too.
The show has more of a feel of girlfriend / boyfriend now.
Yaguchi is friendly overall though, it might just be us seeing things we want to see....
Either way, I've given up on her singing anymore besides small parts.
I really liked her voice, and that is the worst part of her exit from MM.
I think if KAORI is getting hitched, then it can't be much longer before we see
Yaguchi,Kemeko, and others get married.
