AKB48 Producer Akimoto Yasushi's Response To Sashihara Rino's Transfer




Akimoto Yasushi released a response on his Google+ account.
It’s about the transfer of Rino Sashihara to HKT48


I heard in the weekly magazine article about the talk of the person herself (Sashihara) ,
she said, ”Everything is not true but, some people who believes about this article misunderstood it and I have no choice”.

This talk came out way back 3 or 4 years ago when Sashihara was still a trainee, that as AKB48 members are reflecting in their lack of self-awareness.
Sashihara had a 1 yellow card that is likely to be considered as a stern warning .

Rino Sashihara’s ”high spirit” of ”The feeling of I won’t give up whatever will happen” is a role model to AKB’s member .
I hope that this strength will convey to the juniors,
I decided to transfer her to the HKT48 which was formed just recently.
There are some people who said it is ”demotion” to her, but that is rude to the members of HKT48, staff and their fans.
We have a long meeting and we came out to a conclusion, and I think it is a good motivation to the young members of HKT48 and a new challenge for Rino Sashihara .

To those fans who made Sashihara to be 4th place,
How far you will say that you are ”incompetent” ?
With this kind of important time.
But, It’s Sashihara .
May be she will become a leader in HKT48 strongest group someday .
Or may be she will mingle in the strongest group of HKT48 .

Please give Rino Sashihara a warm care as the AKB’s least ”member who doesn’t response from an expectation“

Consequently, Sashihara will have her last performance with Team A of AKB48 on June 20.

Still can't believe all of this. O well, it means I'll give HKT a try/

I know others on Arama don't like Sasshi, but I really do and I'm sad to see this happen.

It's quite possible that these rumors are true. But I hate how Aki-P makes these "punishment" decisions or supports it when AKB members take the fall for something they didn't do instead of standing up for his own employees. If it's true, I wouldn't be mad, but it seems like it doesn't matter if it's true or not to him.

It's more about the idols' world rules. IDK about the dating thing, personally I'm suspicious about it, but befriending a fan is against the rule because it's special treatment.
AkiP can't do anything. If other idols abide by the rule, AKB members have to do the same.

If you consider how Sashi can wait out in HKT while the scandal is over and at the same time help guide the 13 yrs old at HKT, it's not so bad...:\
Honestly it's better than her getting kick out or suspend, in which she'll lose more fans by staying out of the public eyes.

Way to play with fans' money and rub in their faces.

It's hard to tell through the Google Translate, but this seems to be implying that Rino won't be in the new single. So does that mean that all the members below her will be getting "bumped up" a spot? And will they stick in someone else on the very bottom to fill in the empty one?

Her last AKB48 theater show is postponed to July, 20 June is Matsubara Natsumi's birthday show.

I'll just be honest, I'm sad, and I feel even worse reading the comments online.
and for those who just think, 'omg so interesting yes sasshi gtfo from akb48 yay!', you, GTFO and shut the fuck up (not directing to anyone here, I know some assholes who insensitively said those right after the transfer).
and for those HKT's 'fans' (who I doubt even spent any money for voting) who said that Sasshi is tainting HKT, you don't even know what actually happened, fu, do you know how embarrassing it must be for her?
I even avoided forum and twitter for a few days and honestly she is not even my no. 1 member in AKB, but Sasshi is just someone who make you feel like rooting for her if you really follow the group closely.

however, with this, I guess Sasshi now is in the future side? because Akipi said that HKT is the future group or sth like that.

I'm still sad, I hope she still will be in the album and singles, or at least in Not Yet.
those hard works she had done shouldn't go all wasted just like this.

he makes it sound like Sasshi's transfer will be permanent...

May be she will become a leader in HKT48 strongest group someday .
Or may be she will mingle in the strongest group of HKT48 .


foreshadowing her leader/ace role in HKT already I see...
