ouch Ikoma graduation announcement on a newspaper

after tokyo dome, the flood gate is wide open now

 

This one’s a real doozy at the moment. She has been quiet lately.

i really love this girl so muccchhh
i cried PepeHands

 

.

I'm guessing Mayuyu graduating had a lot of effect on her (Giving how close those two were). But honestly Im surprised she is (If True), I figured she would graduate after Maiyan and Nanase did tbh.

 

damn, i thought Maiyan wlll graduate first

 

I cant believe it. Shes the only reason I got into Nogi, and now shes graduating. Im just so sad. All my oshis are graduating.

On another note, Ikoma had a great run. I loved seeing her perform and as center, and shes centered some great singles(and hopefully the next one). She was an amazing idol, and I hope shell be remembered as such. Im sad shes graduating, but Im happy shell be able to graduate with no regrets and having done her best.

 

Totally unexpected. I thought Maiyan will graduate first than her.

Ikoma is actually the person that made me adverse to Nogizaka in their early days. I didn't like her looks when she was centering Guru Guru Curtain and Oide Shampoo (the songs are part to blame as those are not my cup of tea). But a few years later, she is also the one who makes me love Nogizaka so badly. I fell in love with her since I saw the PV for Seifuku no Mannequin (I think I followed Nogizaka after Kizuitara Kataomoi release). She rocks Seifuku no Mannequin so badly. And I just love her work ethics and determination to bring Nogizaka higher. Her story in Nogi's documentary is one of my top motivational story.

Then again, 20th single is a good number to graduate for. She will be so missed. I hope they bring the whole Nogizaka's members as the senbatsu just for this time. It would feel unfair if they didn't considering how much weight this graduation is. I know that might be impossible, but I can dream.

 

Nooooo I hope this is not true.
I thought she would stay for 2-3 years more. She's the reason I became a fan in the first place.

 

I literally dropped my mobile while reading this news. This is unexpected and shocking!

 

Whoa i also didnt see this graduation coming
Were there any telltale signs recently? Is she continuing in entertainment biz or totally out

 

i'm suprised honestly i didn't see this coming
I hope 2018 isn't the year if Nogi graduations,i feel like many girls are on the verge of graduating

i hope she centers the 20th single

 

Honestly I am not really surprised. She was one of the many possible graduates this year.

Nevertheless, this is quite a loss for Nogizaka46.
I have so much respect for her, because her dedication to the group is unparalleled if you ask me.
A strong and sweet woman that knows her way in many different fields.

I am going to miss her.

 

NOOOOOOO
I can't believe it.... Ikomachan....
Did she get influenced by Mayuyu or something?
I really hope this isn't true. She's an irreplaceable presence in Nogizaka. And in my heart...

(Almost the same timing Acchan graduated from AKB oh wow...)

 

What a sad news if its true

still doesnt want to lose her so much , with 20th single , i'll bet she'll maintain the most solo center in nogizaka for a long time

 

Just read the news too, what a shocker

Woke-up to Mezamashi TV's flash report of her graduation [生駒ちゃん乃木坂４６卒業へ]
Good luck Ikoma-chan on your new path

curious why it wasn't reported by the official site first

 

had a good night and had to wake up to this news.
