    Has there been any word on what Mao's been doing during her hiatus?

    I had a thought that she might be secretly taking vocal/dancing lessons as to surprise everyone when she returns.

    Maybe she, Suzumoto Miyu, and Oda Nana are forming a cross-group Unit

    These ridiculous breaks they make members take does more damage than good. We're coming on six months now. I think a fortnight off and an apology would be enough. They miss so much being out in the cold so long I wouldn't be surprised if she just left.

    It's cruel.

    I really want her to come back but I wouldn't be surprised if we get a graduation announcement. She's, what, 24? I feel like the older these girls get the more they must weigh whether or not being in an idol group is worth the sacrifices they have to make, like normal life things like dating. Not being allowed to date at 24 is just not natural, it must be bloody lonely.

    Expected, once again, but that doesn't make this news any better. I hope it wasn't the scandal that influenced this decision, but if it was(likely), I wish that people would learn to forgive and forget when it comes to these things, especially management. I'll miss Mao's uniqueness, and hope she goes on to better things.

    Noooo! I like her antics in HinaAi. I will miss her. Her Dance is on par with Techi. Thats why she chose to graduate she has no one to compete with.

    I hope she remains in entertainment if that's what she wants.

    She's proven she has Variety chops for whatever show may pick her up.

    Damn that really suck, although expected. She was close to being my favorite member, loved her from beating everyone in eating contest, snack Mao, crazy delusional love stories and going crazy with Saito Kyoko.

    The ridiculous and misogynistic rubbish that are love bans have well and truly run their course. So much wasted talent and for what?
