lol is there some cultural thing I'm not getting or is this not even funny? I mean, not necessarily in the sense that it's mean for foreigners, but just plainly not funny, clever, or anything at all

This should be changed to "Meimi's blog confuses people into thinking she is graduating"... or something. Maybe just add a (False Alarm!) to the title.

Also I think the intention was to scare people into thinking she was graduating. Its just that people who are fluent in Japanese would immediately understand after they got down to the "chan" part. Also I think she is "graduating" from using chan to show she is more mature or something.

She's a 13-year-old girl with a reputation for being even more hyper than an idol normally should be. In other words, she's in her own world. ;)

Definitely wasn't the most difficult grammar/words used in that blog entry though.

But sure, might just be me.

One word that most of us know is 卒業 (for obvious reasons), and I can see how that would trigger some alarms.

That along with their sudden lack of news/activity and Kanon's recent rant. Sorry about the scare everyone. Time to move on.

^ I think the one posted here: viewtopic.php?p=53632#p53632

Oh, and also the lines were spread out more in the actual entry so I could see how it would initially shock a fan (just as she has intended), especially if you're reading on a cell phone. At first I was just looking at the translation above.

Oh, Meimi :lol:
