Well, I'm definetely done with MM with Sayu graduating since I don't know any of the new members except for her. I'm sure she will still be on TV and I wish her and MM the best. I'm glad that I got to meet her in person back then when they came to LA.

I grew up with the fifth and sixth generation and now am too old to follow the younger members. Haha. Time to part with MM with Sayu graduating! Such a bittersweet feeling though!

Awwww, Mugen... please don't give up on them! I know how you feel... it's like my right arm is being cut off with Sayu leaving! And yet... there are other new girls coming up, and you are not as old as me to get used to new girls I think, heh heh. What about Fuku-chan and so many other sweet ones. Take time and learn them and you will rediscover your love for MM all over again... I am sure!

Michishige Sayumi to take a break from showbiz after graduation
September 21, 2014

Morning Musume.'14 member Michishige Sayumi will be taking a break from showbiz after graduation from the group.

This was announced by Michishige herself on September 20th during the opening day of their tour 'Morning Musume.'14 Concert Tour Fall GIVE ME MORE LOVE ~Michishige Sayumi Graduation Commemorative Special~' at Harmony Hall Zama in Kanagawa Prefecture. During the encore, she commented on her graduation, "I wasn't particularly interested in showbiz. I auditioned simply because I loved Morning Musume. After becoming a member, and even a leader, I intended to risk my entire life for Morning Musume. These past 12 years, I believe that I have done all I can for Morning Musume. I've rushed here without rest, so I plan to take a break for a while after graduating."

As the crowd began to make noise in response to her unexpected remark, she continued, "It might sound exaggerated to everyone when I say that I will take a break, but I just want to rest a little from work, refresh my mind and body, and think at my own pace about what I want to do from now on." She was then received with a cheer and applause.

Michishige's graduation concert will be held on November 26 at Yokohama Arena. In addition, the 12th generation members will be revealed on September 30 during their concert at Nippon Budokan.

CROSS-POSTING!!

It's like a retrospective/contemplative/flashback thingy.

A couple of things from Up-Front Link's Twitter.

First one is related to the costume made for Sayu on J-MELO:

Second is about a special program to be aired:

EDIT: And a video. It jumps around a bit, featuring several idol groups, however the main theme of the ep appears to be "idol graduations" and it does feature Sayu quite a bit.
