Nakaya Sayaka, who a little while ago announced her graduation to pursue her dream to become a professional Seiyu (voice actress).
She left her agency Mousa as well since the audition that made her determine the graduation requires applicants not to belong to any agency.
Today, she graduates AKB48. At the AKB48 theater as well as at AKB cafe and shop -Andare P (producer of NOTTV “Anta Dare” arranged to cast her in today’s show at the last minute)- so many fans come to see her last stage and to tell her that they will ever be with her regardless of the fact the she is no longer a member of AKB48.
Because I was told that I can’t put this up on my blog, this is my last resistance, or I should say this a crime? lol
Please let me hear your voice, yes, your voice.

Araki: Group Photo with all members!
Akimoto Yasushi extolled Nakaya Sayaka’s decision.
Nakaya announced her graduation on March 2nd and only 4 days after that, she graduates AKB48.
At the meeting in February, Akimoto Yasushi told managers of 48G that Nakaya is the ideal model for 48G.
AKB48’s concept is “a route for the dream”, but now as the group has become so big, both members and management consider their activities for AKB48 as their main purpose.
Nakaya will join the audition for Anime “Milky Homes”. Actually she tried to join the audition last year, but since she had voice actress job in AKB48, she gave that up.
Doesn’t want to feel the same regret again, Nakaya asked Akimoto Yasushi for a permission through direct negotiation.
Impressed by Nakaya’s passion and determination, Akimoto allowed her not only to graduate AKB48 but to leave her agency.
Akimoto asked staffs to let members make effort to have dream “beyond AKB48”.
Andare staff wrote a stirring message on Google Plus yesterday when he arranged to invite Nakayan for today’s program. It’s long but definitely worth reading as it tells how much Nakayan is loved by people. (link)
Andare P: Hi! This is NOTTV Andare P!
This is today’s group photo.
Since Miss. Nakaya Sayaka rushed out to the theater, we delivered a gift and flower to the theater!
I want to wear dress made by Shinobu~~!
When I will be able to hold a live concert as Seiyu, I will definitely ask her to make my costume!
I’m happy~~~
So happy~~~~
I personally think that people regretting the separation means I’m needed by people.
It teaches me the value and meaning of my existence.
Thank you everyone.
