I'm hoping they do something with her.

This was a bit over a year ago. Maybe she's still under UF?

^ Has there been any other sources that state she was/is an Egg? She never mentions being an Egg in the video. Only the accompanying KoME article states that. Since KoME is neither UF or a major Japanese media outlet I'd take their article with a grain of salt.

i'm not sure anymore.. i thought it was Tsunku's blog, but i didn't find anything there.
it's been over a year, so maybe i'm remembering things differently.. i just remember the feeling of "wow, it's confirmed she's a new egg" but i could possibly be getting it confused with "wow, it's confirmed she participated in the concert with the eggs" or something.

I think can be sure that her current status at Up Front is unclear. But as she didn't participate at the last summer and winter concerts and lack of other activities it's highly likely that she's gone. I wouldn't be surprised if she decided herself to move on because of the lack of activity.


ps. I changed the color of Tanaka Anri.

claneksi at H!O summarized a few things from the "Top Yell" issue with the Kenshuusei.

- Tsunku couldn't feel their power at the last Happyoukai concert (March) so Sayuki wants to show it more, Nanami wants to enrich her expression.

- Fuyuka is trying to improve her physical strength, build some muscle. She says she's healthy now so fans shouldn't worry about her.

- Rie and Karin explain the Kenshuusei's training. They have lessons once a week, at those lessons they focus on singing, dancing, and katsuzetsu (mouth exercise - like tounge twister or such so you can speak/sing smoothly). They are divided into two classes, and if you improve enough you can be promoted to the higher level class. When there is an event or concert coming up they have lessons for intensive training from about three weeks before.

- There are various kinds of girls with different reactions to their mistakes in lives. Some keep it inside, some just laugh, some get really depressed, some cry easily.

- There's the 11th gen audition now, and as Kenshuusei who aim for debut, it's only natural for them to participate. Asked if they are participating they enthusiastically said yes. Karin relates to the title of the audition, and because she loves singing (not just in H!P) she won't lost to anyone in loving singing, she also said that it won't just be about technique but also the ability to show how you love singing. Nanami will bring forward her character. Fuyuka says that she's not really good at singing, but she will give her best in the audition. Sayuki says she won't lose to anyone in loving Morning Musume, and she wants to challenge herself. Rie talks about her brother for some reason, says he's always reliably checking her condition, to the point that it's become annoying. Right now she's getting special training from him.

Rie Karin Sayuki and Nanami are the Senpai kenshuusei so for that reason I'd be happy with any of them joining!

...Although I'm a bit baised with Karin. I loved her even before the S/mileage audition when she was in Shin Mini Moni
