    Olympics is on the mid year. She should still be around right? The world needs to know how amazing this girl is.

    That would be pretty awesome and she deserves it. Things like Tokyo Dome take a LOT of planning though.

    Ok, a massive disappointment then.

    They seem to be picking graduated idols as torch bearers so that could definitely happen.

    From your point of view, who is the next NanaMai? You know, there's always a top rivality in every AkiP's group. The rivality that can make the group alive. It's like Yin and Yang. Two very different top girls but complete each other.
    I honestly doubt there will be another NanaMai. Asuka is like stand alone right now. Management also seems to bring Mizuki closer to Asuka lately. But I still don't get their chemistry. Same with Yoda and Mizuki. I just don't get them. They seem have quite similar personalities.
    I once hoped for Kuboshita. For me, they were the perfect candidate. But unfortunately Shiori was falling, meanwhile Mizuki is skyrocketing.
    So yeah, there isn't any next NanaMai so far. But who knows? Maybe from 4th gen?

    Management seems to strongly push Endo Sakura these days, and she seems to resemble Nanase more than Yoda, so I guess Endo will be one of them. As for the other half, I would say Mizuki, they seems to have a different personality and aura.
    As for Ashu, it's hard to say who is her rival these days, it should be Miona but I don't think Miona keeps up well with Ashu.

    The Momoko-Yoda pairing has kinda dropped off

    I think Mizuki is a standalone and has kinda this mysterious aura like Ashu but is also not an Ashu (she is unique one of a kind)

    Endo's best pairing/rivalry is Kakki. But its more like a IkuMai rather than NanaMai pairing to me at least

    Surprisingly I'm not sad she's graduating. Perhaps just about time. Ikoma's graduation was shocking to me tho

    So maiyan will be center or not? Im not follow the development recently.

    Tbh, I’m not really fond of those “rivalry” stuffs within the group lol Though I think it is unavoidable.
    That’s why I don’t really “rival” Ikuchan to any member.. hehe
    Or she just doesn’t have that official “rival” that’s why I don’t really mind about it? LOL

    From my side,
    I think maiyan will be like ikoma, she will not accept it when Management want her to be the center,
    It means, the center will be another girl, in 'IF MAIYAN NOT GRADUATING THIS YEAR' kind of story :D

    Its great if there will be a Unit for maiyan, like Igai Break kind of unit,
    or a Solo song with 'Thanks' Vibe in it..

    Anyway, i don't feel like this is a sad moment, but its like a FINALLY moment that maiyan decide to grad now, it means she saw that her junior is more than enough to take nogizaka further...


    Let's Think like this:
    - It is SAD and lonely to never see her again with Nogi, not in koujichu, not in Nogi Single, Not in jingu :)
    BUT
    - A new Instagram account will be created, and we can see her Instagram Story :)

    I don't think we'll see another NanaMai. And that's fine.

    But the best way to replicate something similar, imo, would be to push Momoko again and give her a solo center before Mizuki. Then give Mizuki a solo center the next single after that. A Yoda-Mizuki rivalry would be too friendly/laid-back to be interesting. But I've never known Momoko and Mizuki to be close at all so that rivalry might be slightly less than friendly. Everyone's been talking about Mizuki's rise lately, it would be dramatic for Momoko to come out of nowhere and snatch the next 3rd gen center. It would also make for an interesting story with Momoko being the pure, innocent, girl next door type idol (and possible Maiyan successor with them being close). Then Mizuki as the more uhh less than innocent, less than pure, black hearted type idol.

    As far as rivalries go in general, Kakki is so personable and well-liked that I can't really imagine her in a rivalry with anyone, even a friendly one.

    I could see an inter-generational rivalry between 3rd gen and 4th gen. With 4th gen's popularity skyrocketing, I could imagine a storyline where 3rd gen doesn't want to 'lose' to 4th gen.

    Momoko, Miria and Hazuki looking super cute.

    I keep forgetting Miria is so young.

    But that ain't a Yukata tho
    Yukata is for summer
    What Momoko and the others wears is called a Furisode Kimono used in special occasions.
