Tsuji makes Forky (from Toy Story 4) with her daughter Noa…



Noa's face is still hidden in the video, but other than that, this might be the most we've ever seen — or at least heard — of her. (There might have been more of her in previous videos, but I haven't seen that.)

There are a ton of photos of Noa on tsuji’s instagram, many in which you can see most of her face, but this is the first time you could hear her voice or interact with her in a way.

I meant the most in a single presentation.

Ogata Haruna on how to avoid sunburn.


It makes me wonder.

Despite her educational commitment she finds the time to maintain a Youtube channel and an active social media presence on multiple services.
Not comparable to her schedule as an idol of course, but she's putting out content for us to enjoy on a regular basis.

Looking back, might graduation from Morning Musume & H!P perhaps have been too drastic? Would a significantly reduced workload without leaving UF not have been a possibility?

Regardless, glad she didn't completely fall off the radar. Keeps hope alive for other graduates. :thumbs-up:

There are a lot of girls who graduate particularly early and use an excuse like wanting to go to college and put 100% effort etc etc where I’m actually pretty sure they just don’t like being an idol as much as they thought they would, or they enjoyed their time but just are more than ready to move on. Nothing against the group even. I’m sure they loved their fellow members and are grateful to have been a part of the group, but the whole idol lifestyle is so much more than even we see and perhaps some girls enjoy it less than others.

Or they didn't improve much during their time as an idol, so they didn't make much of an impression on the fans, so the company chose not to renew their contract…

:fear:

She probably has a ton of free time since she's on Summer vacation until the end of August. Even with school, the posting to twitter, insta, etc. seems pretty passive in comparison to me. I'm curious to see if she keeps the same pace with YT once school starts up again (if she wants to, maybe she'll bulk film).
