Shimizu Saki / Captain has announced her marriage (to a non celebrity) and retirement from the entertainment industry in November 2021, after she turns 30. She's been active for 19 years. (She talks about her husband in the JP-R message; she seems really happy.)

I'm so happy for her, but also sad she's going to leave. She is/was my favorite Berryz. I wish her nothing but the best (and hope to maybe see her in blog pictures once in a while after her retirement).

This was overshadowed by the slew of unexpected H!P grads but Captain/Shimizu Saki has retired from the entertainment industry-

Meimi Tamura in rehearsals for Everybody's Talking About Jamie, which premieres August 8.

She's still set to play Rizzo in Grease later this year, in November and December.

And a third video that was recommended to me after I watched those first two: Meimi performing "Into the Unknown" from Frozen 2, at NHK's Cosmic Front special last January…
