I don't think so. Riri has been more behind the scene lately, hence the "staff" shirt.
I remember back during the STU48 auditions, I lurked the Spl-ash twitter 'cause of Imamura Mitsuki, and I thought Riri was MIA because her lack of activity. That's probably because she's a university student, so she took a break on extra activities.
Plus, if H!P relatives are banned, then Chiichan's sister wouldn't have participated the first year.
Ah, I didn't know that. I was just looking around and guessing based on some Twitter pictures.
I never knew Chisaki's sister was involved in the first one. I didn't really start paying attention until last year, and even then not as much as I have this year.

^ I hadn't paid any attention to DIA before "Will you go out with me", which I really enjoyed so I was hoping for more of that. The one member that caught my seems to have a totally different look now (that I'm not huge on). I hope their main release is something I can get into more. ---- ---- ---- ----

Ending theme song "A Page of My Story" by Ange (Ayaka Imamura), Princess (Akira Sekine), Dorothy (You Taichi), Beatrice (Akari Kageyama), Chise (Nozomi Furuki)
If days were not the same I don’t know what I’d do Imagine me laughing and now
See me walk in the street Then catch a red double bus And heaven would find me
I’d go on a float Eased up, I smile a dream Now you know
There is a scene that I… I repeat in my soul While sippin’ a black tea, and now
Gently touching a tree Calming hi-beam from the sky Can free me, I feel like
I’m getting so close to laughing sweet with everything
(Goin’ out on) Sunday morning, the light has come (La la, morning the light’s on me…) And looking up high (Looking around, you’ll see all around) Vanish worries the light has come (La la, shining the light on me…) I’m going to try for a pleasant“now” (Taking me high up, I’m free)
Just a page of life in my story Sweet and bright
There is a comfort to all And affection reside In everything that’s in my sight
Finally opened my eyes And now this I realize (that) pleasure can find you
So pleasing to see It’s like the world is born again
(Goin’ out on) Sunday morning, the light has come (La la, morning the light’s on me…) And looking up high (Looking around, you’ll see all around) Forget worries to laugh and smile (La la, shining the light on me…) And I could fly up and come back around (Taking me high up, I’m free)
I’ve been lonely, the light was gone (La la, you’ve been alone and you’d cry) when nothing was right (Nothing was right to me, all alone) Every worry and trial become (La la, walking along you’ll see) a story in life like a treasure found (Soon to be high up and free)
(Goin’ out on) Sunday morning, the light has come (La la, morning the light’s on me…) And looking up high (Looking around, you’ll see all around) Vanish worries the light has come (La la, shining the light on me…) I’m going to try for a pleasant“now” (Taking me high up, I’m free) Till the time I see this once again I’ll get by.."
I like it as a song but not as a Taylor Swift comeback. Not liking the whole concept of the album so far, but then we haven't seen very much. It's just... "Shake It Off" was about how she didn't care what people say about her. This looks like a reaction to people's opinions and actions, and it seems a bit childish.
