Airi will become a solo singer; she's aiming to start her solo activities next spring (not under H!P, unsure if she's still with UF though).

Really? She's easily the least popular, and since she's been doing it her whole life it's really not surprising that she wants to do something else to me.

Plus, she's never shown an interest in things outside of ℃-ute. She's hardly done any modelling so I don't know where you got that idea .

She also looked like she wanted out for a while. It think it got more clear once they boyfriend scandal popped up.

I just hope she gets to live a normal young adult life she deserves.

Part 1 of the Last Dan℃e series features an interview with Hagiwara Mai (which I think belongs here since it's about their disbandment).

Summary:
-Until this past month, she wasn't feeling emotional about the disbandment and only really realised it's happening when the other members would getting upset.
-She thought about quitting when the group got down to 5 members. She felt like she didn't belong anymore, and when she started high school her parents told her to quit ℃-ute and focus on her studies. Eventually she "quit thinking about quitting".
-Even though there were times when she felt down/upset, whenever she was performing she thought "if I'm part of ℃-ute nothing else really matters".
-All the members thought that they'd like to continue being a group together beyond 10 years, and Mai says that the first time she felt that was after their first Budoukan concert (℃-ute Budoukan Concert 2013『Queen of J-POP〜Tadoritsuita Onna Senshi〜』) and that that concert was really special to her.

HOLY SHIT, I GET TO SEE EVERYONE, YOU GUYS.

[erin]

YES. I'M SO EXCITED.

[CaptainBerryzGiraffe]

you guys better write forgetmenots-esque concert descriptions or we'll all be super disappointed now!

[erilaz]

HOLY SHIT, I GET TO SEE EVERYONE, YOU GUYS.

Good for you! There might even be onstage appearances by OGs. Kaori, Rika, and Yossy showed up at Berryz Kōbō Matsuri (BK's penultimate show, not the final, but it had H!P in full force, as this one will have). I hope for your sake that you get to see Nakazawa-san!
