Takano Yui (Yuipon) / 2nd Generation

Happy birthday Yuipon

 

Yuipon was so good in the most recent RESET! Her hair was so cute too still waiting for her to center Kokoro no Sofa though.

I can't believe they wanted to move her to BII.

 

She announced her graduation at today's Team M stage.

 

I am insanely upset about this and this is literally all I can say. She's such a reassuring presence to watch on stage and she's grown so much from the very first LOD I watched of her when she was still a backdancer in Kataomoi no Taikakusen and this is just very surreal and sad.

 

OH MY GOD, NO.

NO.

 

oh damn. i didn't see it coming T_T
yuipon is my current bias in Team M since she's just so radiant and beautiful and funny. </3
she will be missed T_T

 

@jeauexe I feel the same; she is a very important presence in Team M even though she was let go by management recently and I'll be really sad to see Team M without her since she's my original Team M Oshi.

 

What's happening? My top two in SKE graduate this year already, and now one my favourites members in NMB, my Team M Oshi, is graduating already as well. I'm so disappointed, for real. Yuipon os one of the most charismatica members in NMB, she has all the best qualities of the group.
I hope she can have a great career in variety, she sure has the talented. But still, I'm devasteted.

 

Not another member from Team M

Best of luck to her though!

 

Sad to hear this. She's one of my favorite members in the group. Yuipon has always had this strong presence in M which will be missed when she leaves. I wonder if Nana's departure had any influence on her decision.

I wish her the best and hope things go well with whatever she decides to do next.

 

The next thing to wonder about is whether Yoshimoto picks her up. I mean, they are the biggest talent agency in Japan and have their hands in various regional programs. Perhaps she can be a local talent in Osaka/Okayama.

 

^that's the dream scenario for Yuipon at this point and I kinda wish that would happen but we'll have to wait and see after she graduate which is quite far away atm.

 

Although Yui announced her intent to graduate from NMB48 on Apr 15th, 2015 (JST), she made this decision a few months earlier.

Once she graduates, the NMB48 management team will eventually delete her official sites (Google+ / NMB48 blog / Twitter / 755).

Yui has started to archive her past posts. Full back up is to be completed around mid Aug.

but if she's still in the entertainment industry and still under yoshimoto i dun think they'll erase her twitter account
like nana her twitter account still active. so lets just hope for the best right , ofcourse we wanted to see our idol after her graduation also right

 

my question is why the fuck are you spamming it in every damn thread.

 

Let's show some class.

I did not realize posting in three boards was considered "every damn thread".
If there is a particular board I should consider removing my post from, please do let me hear your suggestion and I will honestly consider it.

Take care.

 

No word yet on her graduation performance?

 

Just officially announced today.

Her last performance at NMB48 Theater - Monday July 13th
Her last active day as NMB48 will be the handshake event in Osaka - Saturday July 18th

Here is the link to the announcement (in Japanese)

http://news.nmb48.com/etc/20150701/190014.html

Also last day NMB48 can receive gifts / letters on her behalf must be either received at NMB48 Theater by Sat July 18th or post stamped (domestic postal) by Fri July 17th.
However last day NMB48 Theater can receive at the theater is a day earlier of Fri July 17th.

 

Her graduation stage today will heartbreaking to watch

 

I wonder what song she will pick. She's most prominent in Natasha but only Airi is left as an original member of that and its not as if she's that close with Airi. Maybe an M song?
