Kei sub-leader or co-leader?[edit]

From my understanding, since Yuko's graduation Kaori and Kei were co-leaders until Kei's grad (after which there were leader and sub-leader positions). Can anyone confirm this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aquawarlock (talk • contribs)

Abe Natsumi[edit]

Nothing about Nacchi leaving due to a plagiarism scandal? She's been on a "leave of absence" since the end of November, but will be returning in February. Here's a forum thread about her return. --Shadowsong 18:01, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Well that did occur AFTER she graduated from Morning Musume. Such info is more appropiate for the Hello! Project article. --Pmsyyz 22:14, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

this paragraph sounds copy-pasted from an article[edit]

"On September 24, it was announced that Sato will be graduating from Morning Musume and Hello! Project on December 13 in order to begin activities as a solo artist. Since February, Sato has been suffering from the effects of irritable bowel syndrome, which has made her absent from several activities that she is satisfied with, mainly concerts and events. Despite her condition improving, it is still interfering with her activities, and she also expressed that it is difficult for her to continue activities as a Morning Musume member as she feels she has been causing trouble for the members and staff. As a result of discussions with her, she decided to improve her condition first than rather continue in the group under the situation where she can not make plans for the future. She also had a strong desire of graduating after a Morning Musume concert, and although she is not without concerns about her health, she has come to the conclusion that the group's upcoming concert at Nippon Budokan, which was originally planned, will be her graduation concert. Sato has also expressed desire to continue her music activities as a solo artist after graduating, so she is planning to distribute singing videos while monitoring her health."

I saw this with no citations?? Also this is most likely lazily copy-pasted from an article. It is painful to read too.blueskies (talk) 15:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
