There really was no reason why she was transferred originally to Nogi46 a year ago but could have had something to do with helping their sales out, their singles have increased in sales but were increasing before Rena joined the group so don't think she had much of an impact on their popularity. One reason could be that she was getting a bit burned out as she's also a full time member of SKE and a part timer with AKB, she's really had no breaks for a long, long time. However just because she's left the group doesn't mean we'll be hearing any less from her though as she was just a part timer with Nogi, if you go to nihongo.com you can read an article about the graduation, some pics from it.
Guess these will be the last set of Rena Nogi cards and they're for March/April.
Have a couple of mag spreads and this set is from volume 67 of Spoon.
One last Rena thing and that's a another superb new mag spread from Big Comic Spirits #20.

ReplyDeleteIt wasn't that surprising actually. During the Saitama concert they cancel most of the groups Concurrency. But I have to admit though she does fit in very well with both SKE and NGK. Nevertheless I do respect her for giving her best! Not forgetting that she's not participating in the sousenkyo.
