I, Shinohara Kanna will graduate from NMB48

Although I started activities as a 1st generation NMB48 member when I was in my 1st year of junior high school, since little, I wasn't a person who can sing and dance in front on an audience, but I still had a dream to become a model.

When I was promoted to team N, I've experienced lot of fun times, happy times, sad times and difficult times. It was really a great experience.

Even though I was in senbatsu for Zetsumetsu Kurokami Shoujo, I wasn't chosen for senbatsu for the single releases after that, I didn't put enough hard work in, and couldn't show everyone my efforts, I'm very sorry.

After being put in team N, during handshake events, I've always been told, that I'm not fitting to be in N

Things like, "What are you in N for?" "There are others who should be in N rather than you" "Because of you, N is not moving forward"

It's really depressing, I kept wondering why was I promoted? It's really hard on me, but, even if people said things like that to me, I don't have any good point about me, I could only say, I'm sorry, but, now, I can say with confidence, that I'm really glad that I've been chosen to be in Team N.

To be able to make such great friends, travel around during concert tours, to be able to do stupid things, getting excited talking about silly things, to me it has been a really really great time, the happiest time, I'm really glad that I get to be in team N.

I, have graduated from junior high school. As a junior high graduate, I want to take a new step forward.

I want to start heading to my dream, to become a model, I want to start walking towards my goal.

Someday, somewhere, when the name 'Shinohara Kanna' appears, I want people to say 'Ah, it's Shinohara, I want to support her', I want that day to come true. I will do my best to make that day come true.

To those who have been saying "I love you", "I want to support you" up until now, I want to thank you so much.

Please continue to support me.
