You guys might want to check out Paruru's thread. The topic over there is Paruru's new and excellent (English-subtitled) Youtube Channel. And there's a video there of a panel show about Youtubers with Akarin on the panel and some panel members are claiming that her channel could possibly be making her 5 million yen a month. And she doesn't seem to be denying anything that any of these people are saying. Could that be possible?
Although i can't say how YouTube pays, but With almost 780k suscribers and each video between 250k and 500k views, that looks doable.
yea that doesn't surprise me. Her numbers have been real good since she got some attention on youtube. She's super wealthy Akarin lol.
AKARIN NOOOO but it makes sense, so she can focus on modeling and beauty.I hope she gets a center song or smth, maybe even a grad concert
I didn't see that coming but yes it makes sense, her modelling work is very successful. I hope she can have some sort of gradcon even if it has to be scaled down due to Covid. So now Mirurun will be the only 1st gen member left. EDIT: She's just tweeted for the first time after her announcement: https://twitter.com/_yoshida_akari/status/1294972082577539074?s=20 Basically she apologises for the sudden announcement and at the age of 24 she's able to take a new step. Sponichi has published the full text of her speech here: https://www.sponichi.co.jp/entertainment/news/2020/08/16/kiji/20200816s00041000451000c.html I'll just post two paragraphs (via Google Translate):
She is in my opinion NMB's most prominent member to graduate since Miruki and Sayanee, and deserves a proper send-off, centering a single, a grad song, and I don't know if gradcon is even possible in current situation. I might think she is eyeing the 10th anniversary to be her last, which is quite fitting if it is.
Her whole birthday live is on her Youtube channel if the video does not show watch the video here the anouncement comes in the last part around the 2h56 mark
I'm actually so sadden by this. Akarin really changed the idol game with being a youtuber and then launching BIDOL. Like sis was doing it all! I was so happy for her success and still being in NMB. I know it must have been a real struggle juggling everything, but damn she did it effortlessly. I have no idea if we'll get a gradcon but she really deserves it. I hope they give our gorl a fantastic final single/grad song too. Also, how dare Akarin be 24 and this successful lolol. I hope she can make BIDOL more global tho. Maybe a future endeavor for her. I only hear good things about her products and honestly she has great people who endorse her stuff.
