Happy 23rd Birthday Egochan!!!



I've been liking Egochan more and more recently, especially thanks to the new KII stage (I usually talk about it in the stage's thread and I mentioned her a few times). She's a very good performer and center, and it surprised me, I've known her for so long but I feel like I didn't know all that much about her before. and now I really like her! I'm glad that SKE management supports her and she's getting a lot of individual work. Congrats for the 4th solo live! I wish her all the best this year and I hope she continues working hard in the group and with KII ^^

 

She'will be soon again alone on stage.

Egochan has just announced her graduation :
https://ske48.co.jp/news/detail/46451

However at least she won't leave until 12/31. Her comment (via DeepL):

 

Even though I did not see that coming (unlike some ithers from the mother group), and even if she did not say a lot, I can suppose she is gunning for a solo artist path.
She's been pushed as a soloist lately and was given some concerts which were well recieved.
She doesn't really need SKE48 anymore, so good luck in her next career, and if Zest keeps supporting her, it may work.

 

I'm a bit sad about Egochan's graduation, because (like I said a few posts above) even though I know her since forever, but I only started to like her more recently, after following SKE a little more, and seeing her as the center of Team KII where she does a great job!! so I'm going to miss her, I wonder who will center KII once she's gone... it will be different ;_; but yes, she's been in the group for 12 years wow o_o it's a lot. I saw that she has quite a lot of solo activities, like solo songs and concerts, so I hope that she finds success in the future!

 

I've known her since forever too, well at least since I came into SKE fandom in April 2015 at the time of the release of the 17th single 'Coquettish Juutai Chuu' in which she was in her first A-side senbatsu. However it was one of that single's B-sides, 'Konya wa Join us!', which brought her to my attention. Although she wasn't one of the song's W-centers (they were Churi and Nao) she appears very prominently in the MV as a shy girl trying to ask a boy to go to the prom with her, and she really grabbed my attention as being very pretty and cute.

Although she didn't become my oshimen in the group until after Minarun's graduation I still followed her very closely and in 2018 I got to meet her in Pacifico Yokohama at a 2-shot event:



She was a little shy and quiet, she didn't say much but it was very nice to meet her. TBH I'm not completely surprised that she's leaving as she's been in the group for so long but I hope she gets a nice grad song in the next single.
