Thank you for always supporting morning musume. Today concerning morning musume there is an important announcment. As of today, 2005 April 14 (thursday) morning musume's leader yaguchi mari, will quit and go onto solo activities.
April 15, 2005 (friday) will be the sale of the picture weekly, "friday" containg a report on yaguchi mari. This article containg a photograph of the night of April 10, 2005 has come to the attention of this orginization. Concerning this, yaguchi herself has reported this to this company and there has been many countless meetings. In these meetings, the group morning musume which has the love of many fans, have supported this growth as an idol group.
With in morning musume, there are minors and ones behavior must be concerned. And as a leader of morning musume, one must be self concious.
Yaguchi Mari must live as an indivisual 22 year old. And in the core of this there was a serious talk. With in these talks, Yaguchi mari, looks back as an idol, and with the thoughts of the supporting fans, and thinking of taking responibility of herself, the result was a dissapointing result for all. As leader of morning musume, she no longer has the qualitifications. Futher more she will no longer stand in front of the fans as a member of morning musume. She said "please let me resign from morning musume" IN these words, activities as a talent is also open to resignation.
However, yaguchi mari, entering as second generation member, has tried more than others for 7 years, always looking foward, always diligent to fill the stage with energy.
Again appearing alone on shows, seeing her large personality as a talent. Further more, in this event much consideration has been put forth. And from this event forth, as a member of this company yaguchi mari will go forth in solo activities, she has ackknoleged this. Though it is a horribly dissapointing thing, everyone forgive us, and please watch over yaguchi mari warmly.
At this time, her future activities are not decided. HOever it is sad, yaguchi mari will refuse all concert from April 14, 2005. Please accept this situation. Further more, from now on the leader will be Yoshizawa Hitomi.
As lastly, the support of all Hello Project Fans is everything. From now on please look on Hello Project favorably.
Yaguchi's comment
To the always always, intensly supporting fans, im very sorry. I have always been trying my hardest these 7 years. From the time i knew nothing, till today as a leader, I have never been lost on stage. With the graduations of seniors, and the self of now, there are many times i have felt i have become an adult. There are members of morning musume.And they are called idols. And we have stood in front of the fans many times.. All of this i have pride in, I think of this as a present from god.
This time's disturbance, i think has been a betrayal to my idol self. Again My qualification as a leader again has been lost, i think. For this reason i cannot continue on in this situation, i have decided to take responibility and quit morning musume. The result is i will continue with solo activities.
I have many feeling of remorse to all the people who support morning musume. Yaguchi mari will one more time repair things. Please look at yaguchi mari as one who has become an adult. Please look favorably on me.
Well that was shocking and dissapointing i wont see her at the concert.... messed up man even the aya incident was smothed over. I guess UFA doesnt have the pull it had before... oh well there are many mistakes on this thing but i dunno translating this which is rather formal and with like 10 ways to say im sorry (seriously one sentence was like saying super please sorry about this) and i cut out some of that really repetitive stuff. I dunno yaguchi has never been a favorite but seeing her gone ill miss her much more than probaly all the other girls who have graduaed up to this point.
edit, attempted to fix some of the more horrible spelling mistakes...yeah shouldnt spend half an hour doing this with profreading >< there are still mistakes but im sure there will be better translations comeing along soon, this news has now come out on all the major boards.
