[NEWS] Ōshima Yūko to graduate from AKB48

[Pavlova]

June 2nd will be the special graduation performance for Yuko at the AKB Theatre.

Acchan, Mariko and Tomochin only got performances with their team + their graduations on their dome concerts.

Yuko got her last team performance + the stadium concert + this special thing.. that might be the "biggest" grad ever.

Yuko's awesome, so I don't really mind .

[Pavlova]

Me neither, I'm just a tad surprised Acchan didn't also get such a thing.

More time to prepare? I mean, her announcement was pretty close to the time she set her graduation at. Right? Or maybe Yuko's just more loved .

[Pavlova]

Acchan's announcement was at Gyomu Renraku. Tanomuzo, Katayama Bucho! in Saitama Super Arena on March 25th, 2012. She graduated at Tokyo Dome on August 26th.That's 5 months, Yuko got 4, in terms of graduation ceremonies. But then, Acchan's lest performance at the theater was on August 27th, the next day, whereas Yuko's is a whole 2 months after her grad ceremony.

I really wish Yuko had graduated in the summer concert instead.

I guess her grad ceremony just finished?

BREAKING NEWS

Today's concert, the 2nd day of the Olympic Stadium Concert and Yuko's grad ceremony, has been cancelled, because of weather.



Yuko talking to fans in a nearby park after the announcement.

[Pavlova]

I have heard Yuko's graduation ceremony will be reported to the concert before the senbatsu sousenkyo on June 7, 2014 at Ajinomoto Stadium. I don't have a clear source on this but it has been stated the grad concert would start at 1PM and the election at 5.

The concert that was to be held at the Olympic Stadium on March 30th, including the graduation ceremony for Oshima Yuko, will be postponed until June 8th, and will be held at Ajinomoto Stadium.

The venue is about the same size as the Olympic Stadium.

This is great news for Yuko and the fans, but sad for the foreign fans who had traveled for her graduation ceremony.

[Pavlova]

The theater graduation performance that was to be held on june 2nd will be pushed back to june 9th so that it is after the graduation ceremony as per AKB tradition
