On March 25, 2012, the concert of "Saitama Super Arena" was held on March 25, 2012.

AKB48, the whole lineup was dispatched, and the fans in the audience enthusiastically called for their favorite love Doulu to support. The screen of the stage switched to a close-up of Atsuko Maeda many times, and in the eyes of the audience, because Atsuko Maeda is now the ACE of AKB48, it is natural that there are many shots. The members on the stage were working hard and doing their best, and the audience responded loudly.

"It's coming soon. Akimoto Yasu, who was watching from the audience, muttered something like this.

As the performance drew to a close, Tomonobu Togasaki, who was preparing backstage, was silently ready, and he was about to take the stage to announce a news that would shock everyone present, and even everyone in the country.

“3，2，1。 As the staff counted down, Togasaki Tomonobu took a deep breath and walked from the backstage to the stage where the members were performing. With the appearance of Togasaki Tomonobu, the fans below were in an uproar, and the members on the stage were also very frightened, the members and fans had known this routine for a long time, and generally the man appeared on the stage after the concert, which was often accompanied by some major news release.

"Good evening everyone, I'm Togasaki from AKB. There are some changes to the brokerage companies here today that we would like to announce to you, and then the members are invited to discuss this matter with their parents and the brokerage before making a decision. It is not so much an emigration as it is a negotiation of emigration. So, I'm going to announce ......" Togasaki Tomonobu announced the issue of the ownership of the 15 members' offices, and the overall change is not very big, and it is good news for the members.

"It's really gratifying news! 15 members, please discuss with their guardians about the relocation, you have successfully attracted everyone's attention, and I want to see more possibilities for you after joining the company. The possibilities of everyone will become even more improved, I really want to congratulate you, congratulations! Please keep up the good work!" After Takahashi finished speaking as a representative, the members on the stage and the audience all shouted their blessings to the 15 members. Atsuko Maeda stroked her chest and tried to calm her mind, because next, she was about to say something that none of her fans had ever thought of.

Takahashi Minami turned his head to look at Atsuko Maeda and nodded. The other party also nodded slightly, and then brought the microphone to him.

"Uh...... I have something to say. Atsuko Maeda smiled and took a step forward, and the audience below was a little surprised by the sudden speech, and they all whispered about it. Not only the audience, but also the TOP members of AKB on the stage, like the fans, all had an expression of "what's the situation?" on their faces, quietly looking at Atsuko Maeda, wondering what she was going to say.

He stroked his chest vigorously, obviously he had been thinking about it for a long, long time, and standing here today, at this moment that was about to be announced, he actually felt a little withdrawn. Is it reluctant, or regret it? In an instant, there were many waves in her heart, Atsushi Maeda tried hard not to let her tears flow, she had to say it, everything was for her favorite AKB.

"A-chan!~" The fans at the bottom cheered loudly. Feeling the power from the fans, Atsuko Maeda smiled. The fans gave her a lot of strength, and she was finally able to make up her mind.

"I auditioned for AKB48 when I was 14 years old, and then joined AKB48 as an early member. Atsuko Maeda tried hard to let herself speak plainly, and the partners on the stage already had a very subtle, bad premonition, and everyone had a solemn face and listened carefully to Atsuko Maeda's speech.

"It was the first big decision for me. When he said this, Takahashi's eyes had already begun to become moist, and Rino Kahara twisted her head to the side, and there was a slight flash of sparkle in her eyes. Unlike Minami Takahashi, when Rino Shihara heard this, she had already anticipated what Atsuko Maeda was about to say.

"Then here today, allow me to make a second big decision. When he said this, Atsuko Maeda was already close to being unable to control herself, and the feeling that tears were about to burst out of her eyes at any time, trying to smooth her chest, Takahashi Minami walked behind him and put one of her hands on Maeda's shoulder, but at the moment of contact, her face could no longer be controlled, and she immediately took her hand back and covered her face, trying not to let people see the tears on her face.

"That's what I'm trying to say. After feeling the power of Minami Takahashi's support behind her, Atsuko Maeda made up her mind and said seriously and slowly, "I, Atsuko Maeda, have decided to graduate from AKB48. ”

The audience immediately erupted in a huge uproar, the news was too shocking for them, and everyone did not expect such a big event.

The members on the stage, after hearing the announcement, the members of the lower group and the back row all covered their mouths with shocked expressions. Atsuko Maeda's usual friends, partners, and other top members of the team, in addition to shock, have more different feelings in it.

"I still said it. Mariko Shinoda cried and said to Yona Kojima, who lowered her head and shed tears silently.

"Why, why don't you discuss it with me!" A-chan ......" Itano Tomomi was more angry than sad, because as a good friend of Atsuko Maeda, she didn't even know about it. Now she has mixed feelings in her inner world, but she still can't accept Atsuko Maeda's willful decision.

"From the beginning, my mood swings would be very high, which caused a lot of trouble for the members and probably made the fans worry a lot about me. But for me these 6 and a half years of hard work. Atsuko Maeda continued, "I was really touched by the announcement of the Tokyo Dome concert on the first day of the concert, and I was really touched that everyone had been dreaming of it since she was 14 years old, and that it was finally coming true. ”

The audience was crying while listening carefully to Atsuko Maeda's speech on the stage.

At the same time, I also felt that I had to start again with my dream of being 20 years old. To be honest, there is still a lot of anxiety in my heart, and I don't know what the future holds. However, here, even for the sake of the younger generations, I should graduate, and I can't help but take this step, I think so. "Atsuko Maeda, at this moment, like the general of the entire AKB48, said these words seriously and responsibly, and she is the only one who is qualified to say such things now.

"So that's ......" Yuko Oshima, who was still shocked just now Atsuko Maeda's sudden announcement of graduation, was going down to question why Maeda did this after hearing this, but everything became clear. The crying on her face was full of tears, and Yuko Oshima felt that Atsuko Maeda was stronger than herself this time. When he was still thinking about continuing to compete for the top and challenge Maeda, the other party was already thinking about the future of AKB48 for many juniors, and Yuko Oshima, who has always been competitive, really felt that he was defeated this time.

"However, the specific matter has not yet been decided, and it is not that I will graduate right away today, so when the decision is made, I will stand in front of everyone again and announce it, I am very sorry for my delay, thank you. After finishing the last few words with a hearty smile, he bowed deeply to the audience, and what was returned below was the voice of the audience shouting the deafening "Ah Chan" with tears in their eyes.

"Everyone will be very shocked by such sudden news. The rest of the members were unaware. And I, all the time watching beside her, I saw a lot, a lot of distressed looks, crying looks, laughing looks, all in my eyes and in my heart. Last year, when I was having dinner with A-chan, she said that I was thinking about something now, so she explained it to me at that time, so everyone, please don't think that this is A-chan's impulse, she really thinks a lot about it as herself, and this is a decision based on various aspects and layers of consideration. Many people will ask, why does it have to be now, that kind of mood, but her life is decided by herself. The big decision to join AKB48 is also the same as the decision to graduate now, and these decisions can only be made by herself. Staying in AKB is not the end of all her dreams, I would say the same to the other members, I hope you can carry too much for Atsuko, although the details have not yet been decided, but can see her off with enthusiasm and warmth, please everyone. Takahashi Minami said with a serious expression.

"Everyone's warm words will definitely become her motivation, everyone's gentle love will definitely become her life's food, and we will ...... Say goodbye to her with all your might...... yes, it's okay because everyone is together all the time......" Minami Takahashi paused, then continued, "Actually...... Actually, I really don't want her to leave us, but ...... We don't have the right to stop her, we just want to be able to support her with all our might, everyone please support her a lot, please. Takahashi Minami said loudly, and the audience broke out again.

"Next, there is another song that everyone needs to sing together. To be honest, what do you think? It's really sad, but we can't stop there, we can only move on. Atsuko will continue to move forward all the way, and everyone will continue to move forward, it is not okay to end with tears, can you please accompany us for another song?" Takahashi Minami reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and then said: "I met so many people, the first day of the East Egg performance, the announcement of the emigration members, and now the members of the confirmed office, there are a lot of good memories, so, this time it will not end with tears, the last song, please cheer up again!" The music of 会いたかった sounded, and all the top members surrounded Atsuko Maeda, laughing and tearful, hugging Atsuko Maeda.

"It's over......" Ken Kitagawa, who saw this scene in the background, silently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, took out his mobile phone, and after finding the name of Toshiryo Muramatsu, he immediately edited it, "Atsuko Maeda has released his graduation." After that, he closed the lid of his phone and continued to watch the last performance of AKB48 on the screen.
