Interesting. I wonder if that would mean she is going represent herself by her own (ie. as a freelance) or she would likely consider to sign up with another agency.

I wonder that would mean we will see less of her getting involved in H!P events.

[Juandalyn]

That's sad I do hope they can still get her for bigger events... maybe like Goto?

[Ahornbjörn]

well she has a YT channel now

^Wow. That's fast. Interestingly, that those who want out from UF but still want to keep some presence in the media eye are choosing to be youtubers.

I wonder why UF didn't consider having a unit or management team that focuses on social media personality.

 It's the same with subtitle videos. Lots of fans are so now because they know the groups thanks to variety videos subtitled by amateurs. But they only think in delete them, losing lots of probably new fans.

 

 By the way, Gaki looks amazing

Kind of surreal to actually see Gaki's little sister.

 Oh, she is cute, you can say she is not used to be on cam.

Gakisan will be helping Makoto pimp her strawberry pumpkin salad burger.

Twin-tail Gaki is back!  

[arwald]

Out of all H!P members I used to follow, Gaki-san with her Youtube channel grabbed back my attention. Perhaps, watching 2003 episodes of Hello!Morning before I learned about RisanTube contributed to that. Anyhow, in her radio show "Niigaki Risa's <Who had the fun!?>" there was this question from a listener named Joshikashimashimonogatari.

 

Hello Gaki-san. Congratulations on the first broadcast of your radio show! I'm 3rd year student in high school. The age difference between me and Gaki-san is 14 years. I can watch Gaki-san's idol activity only on Youtube and DVDs and I have never watched it actually on Live concerts by myself. Sometimes I've been thinking that I wish I was born earlier.

 

 

Well, as most of us know about all the scripted stuff on TV shows, I was wondering if this is a genuine question from a real high school student or was it some sort of staged question from radio staff members or whoever, like a veteran fan who wants to make impression that there are young people who would find and follow an idol from the past. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I do see comments of Japanese people on Youtube like "I'm 1# years old and I started to love this idol because I watched this video" or something like that. On the other hand, I've seen some fans doing all kind of weird stuff to support their favorite members. If anyone knows about radio industry and radio shows well (honestly, I don't know well, I didn't care that much about radio shows, also my Japanese wasn't good enough I guess) - care to shed light on my doubts? Again, I don't mean to say that I think that all the questions are fake/staged.

 

TL/DR: are there fake people's questions on radio?

[Satur]

 I worked one season in a small radio broadcast and I can tell that even the most small and amateur ones receive enough question from real people that there was no need to make fake question. The only thing that they fake were the results of prize draw.

Cooking with Gaki in English

[Christien.Atkins]

for some reason she looks different her face her eyes

[ItsudemoAibon]

She's so cute........I wonder what Makoto thinks of her English.

[rcb2418]

Her dog is so cute.

Kind of surreal to actually see Gaki's little sister.

[rcb2418]

(Sorry for the double post) I like how Gaki looks without makeup. She hasn't changed much from her first days in MM.
