Before we go for the day we want to explain the reason why we left so immediately.
Of course you all know the reason for my (Atsu) leaving was because I had lost internet privileges..
But the reason I took out Julii for the month was because of school related stress. She has 4 big tests coming up in February plus her grades have slowly been dropping during December. She hasn't had much time to study. So I took her privilege of the blog away until her grades are up. Her privilege is still taken away but only for today we had her come back. Until her exams are over with I will allow Julii to come back.
Although, I, Atsu is still here. I won't be able to post as much of course because I still need to focus on school as well. However, I will post once a week. Julii may not be able to come back until March the exam dates have not yet been decided but I want to make sure she can finish all of her homework and study well but still have social activities with her friends as well. I do not want her locked onto the blog all the time.
Thank you for reading the blog.
We will be supporting you Julii!

And lastly....
A post from Atsu and Julii together.
On February 1st, it was announced that Itano Tomomi would be graduating from AKB48 this year. Itano’s graduation was announced in AKB48’s documentary film, ‘DOCUMENTARY OF AKB48: NO FLOWER WITHOUT RAIN Shoujo Tachi wa Namida no Ato ni Nani wo Miru?‘. During a stage greeting, Itano herself announced,
”I’m Itano Tomomi from Team K. I made a sudden announcement through this interview, but I, Itano Tomomi, will graduate from AKB48. The interview for this documentary was supposed to be about the members of AKB48, their scandals last year, AKB48 in the future, and the graduation of Maeda Atsuko, but my feelings towards graduation became stronger. I decided to announce it like this.”
Itano shared that she had been discussing her graduation with producer Akimoto Yasushi stating, “When I confirmed to Akimoto-sensei that I had expressed my true feelings he told me ‘okay’. It could’ve been cut out during the editing, but I had them use it. Although my time with the fans and members are running out, I would like to enjoy it. Thank you,”
there were fans who cried out, “Don’t quit!” Regarding the timing of the announcement, Itano revealed,
“I actually wanted to wait until our spring concert to announce it, but I expressed my true feelings in the interview.”
She also mentioned that she talked to Maeda Atsuko about it.
“I’m good friends with Atsuko and I have been influenced by her, but I needed to decide on my own path myself. It’s not that I made this decision in a hurry, but I want both of us to do our best.”
Finally, Itano stated, “We haven’t decided on the day yet, but I will announce it once it has been decided. I want to enjoy the time that I have left. I also want to enjoy it as a first generation member.”
Whats happening to 1st Gen.....

....Speechless...
I would post the video but.... im lazy...
so here is the translation.
I am very sorry for worrying the members, you fans, staff members, my family, and many people for the article about me on a weekly magazine that will be released today.
As the first generation member of AKB48 that was formed back in 2005, I was supposed to be in the position where I always had to act as a role model for the junior members. However, what I have done was such a thoughtless and a lack of self-awareness behavior.
Since my mind is still in blank, I did not know what to do or what I can do, but as I just saw the magazine, I could not sit still, so I decided all by myself to shave my head without even telling the members or my agency.
I do not expect that I would be forgiven by doing this, but what I first thought was that I did not want to quit AKB48.
I was unable to think of leaving AKB48 now where the members I love and spent my youth together, and you warm fans are. I know this is being over‐optimistic, but I want to stay as Minegishi Minami of AKB48 if possible.
It was all my fault about this. I am very sorry.
I will leave everything to Akimoto-sensei’s and the management’s judgement. Though I haven’t been able to sort out my feelings, I just wanted to tell you how I was feeling right now.
Thank you.

AKB48 Super Festival
AKB48 to hold an open-air live concert, AKB48 Super Festival, at Nissan Stadium
As you all know Heavy Rotation has ranked 1st at Request hour for the past 3 years but this year was different! Congratulations Team 4 for your song, Hashire! Penguin, to rank 1st this year!
Shimazaki said with a smile, “I did not expect that we could perform together again. It’s all thank to everybody. I’m so happy.”, while Shimada said shedding tears, “The happiest thing is that team 4 has not been forgotten after the breakup.”
it was also announced that AKB48 would be holding an open-air live concert titled “AKB48 Super Festival” at Nissan Stadium in June. It will be the biggest-scale festival yet for the group as there will be 70,000 audience members attending, and they will be the first female artist to hold a solo live concert at the venue.
Takahashi Minami happily commented, “I think it will lead us to open up a new state. This year, the 48 groups will run at full speed!”
Congratulations AKB48 and Team 4!
