On the 28th, the sub-leader of the idol group Angerme, Ayano Kawamura (25), held her graduation concert "FINAL ☆KIRAKIRA☆" at Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, attracting 10,000 people to the venue.

At the graduation ceremony, under the glow of Kawamura's color light purple penlights, she expressed her gratitude to her fans for being able to continue her idol activities for 15 years, saying, "15 years later, I feel that with the support of so many people, the world shines so brightly and is filled with love." Before joining Hello! Project, when she first started her idol activities in her hometown of Kochi, she said, "The stages were supermarket fish counters, parks, and parking lots. There was no one watching, and I often sang toward the distant sky." She looked over with emotion at how she was able to hold a grand graduation concert at the end.

At the concert, she sang songs that she personally selected, such as "Yumemita 15nen" and the glittering "SHAKA SHAKA #2 LOVE Chapter Colorful Life," which she sang with all her heart and soul. She sang a total of 28 songs with all her heart and soul.

She joined Angerme in 2017. Looking back, she says those seven years were full of dreams. Growing up eating delicious tuna in her hometown, she was good at filleting fish, and in 2021 she took the extremely difficult route to become the first woman to obtain the "First Class Tuna Dismantler" qualification. For her graduation performance, she wore a dress studded with fish-themed accessories, and danced from end to end on her final stage.

"The love I received from you all, the days we laughed together, the tears we shed, the sparkling things - all these are precious things that no amount of money can buy. I will pack all of these things in a treasure chest, tie a ribbon around them, and continue to cherish them," she said, putting down the microphone and retiring from the entertainment world.
