Kobayashi Kana announces Graduation
Kobayashi Kana: "It will be her AKB48 10th anniversary at 1 April, thank you all for support, I can not simply express my gratitude. I am not in good condition this year, so I can not participate activities as usual, but it does not relate to my graduation. I just want to step forward, do what I should do.
Though 1,000 LIVE is my target, but it may take me to stay at AKB48 until age 30."
