Waving their penlights in unison, the fans were overjoyed as they watched the members eating fried food and rice on the choral risers.During this the plan shifted as Wakatsuki said, “These are the BEST 5 songs I want to do before I graduate!” Songs not normally heard at live shows continued one after another.The Under Members’ song “Border,” which Wakatsuki loves, was performed with Wakatsuki standing on the aforementioned risers giving her support, giving the second generation members who had worked hard beside her an opportunity to be in the spotlight. The performance that the four of them gave must surely have been etched deeply into the fourth generation members in attendance who had had their own event the previous day. With an exclamation of “Let’s go, Budokan!” she performed the robot dance that has become synonymous with her. By the way, on this day Yamashita’s hairstyle was the “amikomi” wave style that Wakatsuki often wore for concerts.

Following a big chorus of “No-gizaka, Wa-katsuki,” a video was shown looking back at the 2658 days since the debut of Wakatsuki Yumi. Once again, everybody present cried and laughed.This cool performance was done with a smile, and with a hint of the style of Fukuda Yuichi, who is her director in the currently running popular drama “Kyo Kara Ore Wa!”, you could feel how her talents will be properly used in the “Fukuda Group.” After Wakatsuki made an announcement about the breakup of the “Wakasama Gundan,” there was a discussion about changing groups with the three group members and Takayama Kazumi, who had been acting as MC from the choral risers, but Yamashita Mizuki announced, “After this there will be a fourth generation group to spread the magnificence of Wakatsuki!” She was unable to contain her unchanging feeling of respect for Wakatsuki. The other day a member of Nogizaka46 graduated after discovering for herself the clear goal of becoming an “actress.” As a first generation member, ever since their 3rd single Wakatsuki Yumi (24) was a selected member for 20 consecutive songs. After performing the songs, as Wakatsuki’s favorite Christmas song “Senjo no Christmas” played in the background, as an homage to the famous scene from the farewell concert for former great Yamaguchi Momoe, chopsticks were left on stage in place of a microphone as she walked off. Her graduation ceremony, held at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, had production and organization befitting Wakatsuki, and just as you’d expect from an actress, this highly expressive performer had a strong presence, giving a top rate stage performance that is sure to remain in the memories of her fans. !まあ参加できるだけありがたいと思います。— lanciasaka (@number_24xxx) そして、今日は若月佑美卒業セレモニーに参加致します!!!一般で乃木友さんが獲得してくれた時は発狂してました…。笑本当に乃木友さんありがとうございます— 乃木坂46ファン (@NOGIZAKA46_1996) 武道館到着し、物販に並び購入する事が出来ました。物販は、予想以上に混んでおりません。CD売ってる横で作品展してました。— nogi_imp_shima (@ImpNogi) 若月佑美展やってる!!

This was likely Yamashita’s own way of showing her respect for Wakatsuki.Then, the “School Girl Quartet” unit (Wakatsuki Yumi, Akimoto Manatsu, Sakurai Reika, and Nakada Kana) that Wakatsuki had the strongest emotional attachment to performed the song “Kokuhaku no Junban” for the first and last time on this day. ...
