A certain percentage will quit following idols altogether. That always happens with every graduation of any idol.
But the rest?
T: Enjoy-san, are you here by yourself?
E: Nah, my friends are waiting over there (Points to the other end of the lobby)
T: Oh, my group is downstairs
E: I see, all Morning Musume fans?
T: Yeah, you’re one too now. When that did happen?
E: Um let’s see, you know I pay attention to the Kenshuusei too. After New Jersey, I began losing interest in Berryz and then Sakura-chan joined MM.
T: Ahhh, how about the others who were in the USA with us?
E: Most of them have moved on too. Of the 5, 6 guys you’ve met, I think only 1 is still a Berryz wota.
T: Ehh, what, really? Who are they supporting now?
E: A few switched to other H!P groups, while the rest ventured out to other idols, etc
T: Oh I see. How come everyone left Berryz?
E: They weren’t doing anything different in particular these last couple of years, so we slowly lost interest
T: I guess so
E: Well, we’re been following Berryz since their formation. So we’ve pretty much watched them grow up to be adults. It seemed like it’s time for us to let them go
T: Ahh, so that’s why. Are you going to see Berryz off?
E: They still have a few months, I’ll go see them when I can.
T: How do you and the others think about their hiatus?
E: It’s too bad they’re breaking up, but also feels like it’s about time they’ve done so
T: Oh?
E: They’ve been at it for so long, doing the same thing over and over. You could see the members weren’t enjoying it
T: Now that you mention it
E: It’s giving us a very complicated feeling. We’re sad since we’ve liked them for so long, but also relieved that it’s coming to an end
