The LoVendoЯ Thread - Group Activity Suspension & Miyazawa Marin Contract to End in July 2019

[boinsie]

Yuki announced her graduation.

"Yuki Uozumi has announced today during the final concert of the tour she will graduate from LoVendoЯ.
Yuki Uozumi has succeeded the audition in 2012 to enter LoVendoЯ's group as guitarist and then has been active until now.
She told us: "From now, I want to skilling up more and more as guitarist" and the result of the discussions came to the conclusion, by respecting her intentions, that she will graduate from the group during the live at Shinjuku Reny on September 16th and will also be detached from UP-FRONT CREATE on the same time."

"Comment from Yuki Uozumi
I, Yuki Uozumi, will graduate from LoVendoЯ after the live at Shinjuku Reny on September 16th.
Now, I am really happy to play the guitar, but when I looked far ahead, I wanted to experience more possibilities concerning myself.
From now on, I also want to insert abroad studies in my future,
to continue to perform with many musicians,
I want to skilling up as guitarist.
As Yuki Uozumi the guitarist, I thought early this year of how come I can get close to my dreams from now, I discussed with all the members as well as the staff of the company, and this time I am able to report you this annoucement.
I would like to say I am really sorry about this sudden announcement.
I would be happy if we, LoVendoЯ and I, get warm cheering in the future.
Thank you in advance for everything.
2016 July 23rd
Yuki Uozumi (LoVendoЯ)"

i'm not ok with this .___.

WHY CAN'T I JUST HAVE A FAVORITE THAT LASTS IN THE GROUP ;_;.
It's been this domino affect for me since Berryz disbanded.

It is the same situation as Riho. It makes a lot of sense. Being a freelance guitarist or joining a more musically challenging band will only do good for her talent. But she will be greatly missed. I hope UF keep her connection, and maybe she can write more song for H!P or LoVendoR.

Now, what will LoVendoR be? I don't know. They will need to redefine the group. But with Reina being cast into more musical. It's uncertain.

More evidence that Up-Front's standard contract has a four-year term. It happens like this too often to be a coincidence.

I hope they have 2nd gen auditions for Lovendor, so we can get a new guitarist, bassist and drummer. They have tour members but the band would feel more whole if they officially had those positions.

I'm happy she'll be going on to do what she wants, but it's a bummer to have another favorite leave a group right after Kanon and Meimi.

First of all, Happy birthday Marina.

It sucks seeing one of the founding members leave. I was more of a Marin fan, but I had much more respect towards Uozumi. Girl always seemed motivated in one-upping her game, and now she's at the point where being in an idol-ish band is keeping her from achieving her goals. I wish her for the best following her graduation. Hopefully, she continues writing for Hello! Project. ;_;

I could never have a favorite in a group, damn

I've pretty much accepted this as fact.

Really surprised about this graduation announcement. Wasn't expecting something like this from Lovendor. I wonder what the future will be for the group.
