Oh man It kind of makes sense though, (from what's reposted here) I didn't really see her doing much except tagging along on reunion-y things where she wasn't the focal point anyway.

I just hope she'll happy with whatever she pursues next.

Awww Makoto. I'll miss her. Wishing her the best for her future.

At some point Lehua divorced her now ex-husband (longboard surfer Kapono Nahina) and has recently remarried to Adrian Kanoa. She posted wedding photos on Instagram and changed her name.

I love to see updates on the coconuts!

Maybe she wants to move on and have a family without media attention?

For whatever reasons Mako-chan wants to do post-retirement, I wish her for the best.

Love Mako-chan and was glad she was a part of Dream Momusu. A shame we won't see her continue to make the rare appearance on TV.

Dammit, Makoto was one of my all-time MM. Favorites.

I wonder if there will be a 2-chan thread on what profession Makoto will go into after show business?

I still think it sucks that they were building her up during the training camp and then was like a back girl her whole career. I really liked her

[koregaboku]

Kind of not surprised.

She didn't really have steady work the way other OGs do and was probably feeling pressure to do more. Kinda sad though because I always thought of "Fifth Gen" as the unblemished generation, ie they stuck together and we still got to see the entire generation at events (like we recently did at the Berryz last concert).

Now we'll only get to see 3/4 of the girls because I'm going to assume she won't have her photos posted on the other girl's blogs regularly since she'll no longer be a public figure.
