I announced my graduation from NMB at today’s theater.

I’m so sorry that I couldn’t live up to your expectation.

But even thought I’ll graduate, I won’t give up my dream.

I hope you will keep supporting NMB48 and Joe Eriko.

Thank you so much for all your support.

During today’s theater Stage (Sep 3, 2012), team M “Idol no Yoake”,
Team M member Joe Eriko announced her graduation from the NMB48 due to concentrating on her study.

She joined NMB48 because she has admired Maeda Atsuko-san.
At first, she was a member who was scolded the most among all members of NMB’s 2gen.
I often saw her tears of mortification。
But now, thanks to all your support, she has grown up so much.
She was working so hard so that she can keep up with her seniors in NMB’s Sebnatsu. It’s still fresh in our memory.

It’s sad that we can no longer see +her adorable smile*.
But for now, I want her to focus on her study, which is a path that she’s decided on her own. And I will keep an eye on her future growth.
I keenly hope that she will make a comeback when she’s grown up.

こんばんは(´・ω・`)

城ちゃんが卒業すること
今、知りました。

城ちゃんとは
いろいろと一緒にお仕事する機会があったり

東京ドームのリハーサルのときに
いろんなメンバーと話してるとき
城ちゃんも一緒でした。

今回、卒業ってことに
すごい驚きが隠せないし

これから、もっともっと
仲良くなりたいなって思ってたから
寂しいです。

城ちゃん!好き!大好き!!

東京ドームのリハ中、私の髪の毛で遊んで無邪気に笑ってたね。髪の毛のばすのかな?のびた頃にはまた会える?
城ちゃんの笑顔が見れなくなるなんて悲しい。寂しい。

学校との両立も大変だったよね。
NMB48としての活動おつかれさま。
城ちゃんの夢、応援してるね。いつかまた、お互いの夢を叶えたときに会えますように。
城ちゃん大好きだよ!

東京ドームで私が
いつか見た海の底を
おどることになったとき
リハ前に振り合わせ
してくれてありがと。

振りもペアだったから
東京ドーム本番に見た
ジョーちゃんの笑顔
とっても印象的(^^)♡

大好きー!!\(^o^)/

Hi! This is Ripopo!

Joe’s graduation announcement….

I still don’t believe it to be real.

I can’t think of any words…

I just love Joe’s smile.

I want to talk to Joe.

Today, Joe announced her graduation!!!!!!

I was so shocked and lost.

I was just listening to Joe’s words, one by one.

I’ve been worried about Joe lately.

A little while ago, she said me a word that has stuck in my heart.

But I couldn’t notice what she really wanted to convey to me.

(skip)

I want to make a lot of memories before she graduates.

Today, I hugged Joe tightly when we waved good-bye.

With our usual smiles. Nothing different from usual.

I want to keep supporting Joe as much as ever.

Though we could meet with each other only at concerts, I really loved Joe-chan’s stage performance and your smiles.

Joe-chan, I’ll definitely keep supporting you(ノ;ω;)ノ
