    This group is ridiculous. I don't understand what's going on anymore.

    I had my suspicions when the photo of them meeting the new 2ki did not had Naako. But yet its so sudden to se her graduate in 2 days.
    I imagine she might want to pursue a career as a manga ka or something like that, hopefully.
    This also made me thought that Pe chan has lost two of her close friends, Neru and Naako.
    This also shows that there IS something wrong in Keyaki. I won't make any assumptions, but after all these reccent graduations, this group is suffering a lot.
    Thank you, Naako sensei.

    I mean, it came out of nowhere but Naako’s grad news is not that surprising to me.

    She was one of the members who wasn’t picked for the 9th-single-gone-nowhere senbatsu. Now that a ton of new members have joined, she probably felt her opportunities in Keyaki will be even more limited. Recently, she’s been getting even less exposure than usual compared to some of the other 1st gen. I think her blog made it obvious that she wants to pursue other things (like manga artist, which is one of her earliest dreams) rather than continue the idol route.

    Still doesn’t make it any less sad, I guess. She was such an uplifting presence, brough tons of laughter in Keyakake, a great senpai to 2ki, really unique character. With COVID-19, I guess she can’t really have a proper grad event with fans but I hope she quickly moves onward to greater and better things, and that this won’t be the last time we see her in the news.

    1ki of Keyaki is one special group I have seen in the idol scene. It's like they get tired once more members join the group. Not saying that is the case, but it's the impression I got after her absence of meeting new 2ki members. She is also graduating on March 31 so this announcement is coming too late.

    Naako was one of the friendliest member of 1ki. She got close to 2ki really fast esp Matsudaira. She was also one of the nicest toward hiragana & is pretty close to Katoshi. She just found other interest which are more important to her than continue her idol career & she made it pretty clear in her blog message.

    An another graduation from Keyakizaka. This doesn't look good for the group but I wish Nagasawa Nanako success with the goals and dreams she wants to achieve. Aside from that, Keyakizaka just focus on improving. Improve in any positive aspects is all I want now. Just improve.

    I've been absent for several days and when I decide to comeback this news come out. Somebody mentioned that it's unsurprising that Naako is graduating becuase she's one of those who weren't picked for the 9th single senbatsu. But something that nobody have noticed is that except for Techi all the graduations come from members who were left out of senbatsu. I wonder if the relation between being out of senbatsu and graduating means that:
    1. Non-senbatsu members are feeling discouraged so they decide to graduate, or....
    2. They already expressed their thoughts about graduating so management decided to not included in senbatsu.

    I always thought it was suspicious that the number of the 9th single senbatsu was exactly the same number of 1ki members at that time. So for that reason I think ishe #2. But only time will tell the truth.

    I wish the best for Naako, and her future.

    I was hoping to spend a nice Sunday at home (virus and all considered), just to find out the news about Nagasawa-kun announcing graduation. Nothing last forever, but it kinda hurts. Such a unique personality. I wish her the best in her next endeavors. I hope Pe-chan is OK (I got the feeling she must have know beforehand).

    I think it's because Mngmnt is still waiting to see what Tokyo gov would do about COVID19. Making people go to theaters would not be a great choice right now... but I fear Keyaki mngmnt still think to monetize the documentary like that instead of selling it in dvd first, which would be the best and safest decision in my opinion.
    We can only wait and hope someone wake up and push Keyaki like we are used to (Safety for the girls first tho!)

    Meanwhile is up a 4th anniversary site I haven't watched yet.... here the link

    https://www.keyakizaka46.com/s/k46o/page/4th_anniversary?ima=0000

    Edit: Someone on twitter noticed the colors in the site logo are from the singles, from 1st to 8th... nice catch and nice idea too. Listen to the radio, it's super cute!

    Even if you add new generations Keyaki's trademark sound will never change. Doesn't matter if you add 3ki next year this sound will never go away as long Sony does their job to pick right members who suits the sound and the atmosphere of the group.

    I think that is one of Sakamichi groups' strengths.

    However, the loss of 1ki members is painful right now for many fans but you will eventually get over it.

    So does the posting of the video by the new members at 9:46 have meaning?? Or am I getting my hopes up??
