Though this happens ages ago and many fan express shock (and to some extent, delight) at her change of occupation, I still like a first hand account at what do the fans actually think of her stunt. Especially now that she manage to drag her sister along for the ride. Speculations are rift even today as to the motive behind her act.

Lastly, I believe there will not be a repeat of what Nakanishi did. The management will see to that.
Yeah, that was a tragedy, especially as she was one of the original members and was positioned as center until Atsuko Maeda replaced her when she graduated.
The recent release of the pron video with her and her sister co-starring somehow made the whole going to porn thing make it seem worse...

I personally feel sad that Oku Manami and Erepyon left the group so early.

i was watching the 2011 Jan documentary and the more I watch the more addicted I get to the whole concept.
The scary thing is, you dont need to have a favourite person or song, but the concept is so entertaining.
I was a avid American Idol fan, but maybe I am going to just be a full on AKB fan from now...

Maybe 2012 will be a year of graduation from many of the main members... Let's see
