ModelPress has just published a news story that Akarin will be one of three co-stars in a TV Tokyo drama series called 'Dakara watashi wa meiku suru' set in the world of cosmetics which will start in October. She'll play the part of a senior beauty advisor called Yamamoto Orika. It does sound like a role she'd be good at playing! Article link: https://mdpr.jp/news/detail/2185449
^ I'm definitely gonna check that drama out! Already giving the fans more opportunities to see her. Idk if she's good at acting, but role is well suited for her
I guess we can't be surprised that she is graduating. She certainly doesn't NEED to be in AKB anymore, but I will miss seeing her on stage. The girl has one helluva great future ahead of her.
The new drama series appears to be heavily promoted by TV Tokyo: Website: https://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/makeup/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/tx_make Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvtokyo_make/ Short greetings video with Akarin and her two co-stars: if the video does not show watch the video here
At one point just a few years ago, she was just another pretty face on the edges and in the second row of NMB music videos. Fast forward to today---- She has become AKB's ultimate YouTuber with all her informative and interesting make-up and beauty videos. She is a template for all the other members and past members who see YouTube as a means of augmenting their salaries. With her own product line and loyal following, Akarin seems destined to become a very very wealthy woman. Brains, beauty, and ambition-----it's a stellar and unbeatable combination and Akarin has it all.
Akarin's gradcon has been scheduled for 10/24 at the Osaka-jo Hall: http://news.nmb48.com/event/20200912/190043.html It'll be the last of three concerts scheduled across two days (the others will be for the group's 10th Anniversary and a Next Gen show) and there'll be a limited number of spectators with ticket applications starting today for Mobile FC members.
That's honestly a pretty good way to go tbh. It will be an emotional couple of days since it's also their 10th anniversary. I hope there will be a way to view it online for international fans, but I imagine a DVD will come to fruition eventually lol.

I know Mai from Nogi got her million before Akarin, but I hope, Akarin can get there too. It would be such a nice milestone for Akarin since shes no longer gonna be in NMB.

IDK why grad dresses tend to look...not the best, but she did shine throughout her concert entirely. I haven't been able to watch it all, but I saw a few performances and she was just amazing.
Hm, I didn't realize it before, but I'm gonna miss this lady. Super professional and was really nice to new girls.
