Hina Fes. Tsubaki Premium probably means all the other H!P groups will perform at her graduation special. Not up to date on my H!P history, but has any other member before graduated at an H!P concert with other groups performing rather than a concert for just their own group (not counting the opening acts)?

Edit: NVM, just saw that they have a Tsubaki Premium on April 1st too. So this one on April 2nd will probably just be Tsubaki's concert.

Asami Konno graduated from Morning Musume at the end of the "Hello! Project 2006 Summer ~Wonderful Hearts Land~" tour.

Technically, Makoto Ogawa graduated at the same time, but then she had another ceremony at the end of "Ribbon no Kishi: The Musical".

More recently, Mizuki Murota graduated from ANGERME at the end of HinaFes 2020. That was the no-audience broadcast done under under early pandemic restrictions, so we don't know what they might have done differently if there were no pandemic.

Sayashi Riho graduated at Hello! Project COUNTDOWN PARTY 2015 ~GOOD BYE & HELLO!~

Okay, I was thinking this would be the case. Sounds like it will be a good concert. Glad TF finally gets their own premium again too!

Kiki dreaming about performing a solo Budokan concert.

Yesterday.
I heard a familiar song as soon as I walked in the door.
I got into the groove and opened the door to my room.
I knew it!
My mom was watching Acid Black Cherry's "L" concert at Nippon Budokan on TV.
When I got home, I was instantly cheered up!
I was so happy.
I'm glad we share the same interests.
At the same time, I am really happy to be able to stand on the Budokan stage, which has always been a dream of mine.

If there is an opportunity for Tsubaki to stand on the stage in the future, I would like to go and see it.
I want to be able to stand solo on the stage as well... Ambitions are too big.
