Saw both these bits of news yesterday morning...
First...
Kameda Reona has announced her graduation.
She hasn't appeared on stage for three months, so it's not much of a surprise.
She wrote a really lovely blogpost about it which is well worth reading:
http://ameblo.jp/kameda-reona/entry-11837845704.htmlShe's been a member for 4 years, and whilst I don't have a proper oshi in Steam Girls, before her disappearance, she was likely my fave.
She's really beautiful and it was sad to not see her perform this year, and sad to see her go...
I liked her simple tweet in English of "Thank you!" accompanied by these two photos:
And here's a couple more she's tweeted since:
About 10 mins after I read about Reona's graduation, I was wondering what happened to the other missing member of Steam Girls and...
Tsukimiya Karen of Steam Girls, wrote a blogpost about the same time:
http://ameblo.jp/okarie-kaepyon/entry-11837843781.htmlShe hasn't appeared since February either, and in her post, says she's been suffering from depression but really wants to return to the stage, so is not leaving, but hopes to return.
I wish her all the best. Ganbatte Karen
