■The interview is a large volume of 15,000 characters.

Hinatazaka46’s Kumi Sasaki and Mirei Sasaki will appear as a pair on the front cover of the March issue of “BLT”.

Kumi Sasaki and Mirei Sasaki have announced their graduation from Hinatazaka46. “W Sasaki”, who has led the group since its predecessor, Keyakizaka46, will deliver his biggest smile on “BLT” before his graduation.

The photo shoot took place on a ferry across Tokyo Bay. As soon as they boarded the ferry, they acted silly on the rocking ship, and after disembarking, they ran as fast as they could through the port, showing off their energetic behavior.

They were also photographed eating stew and huddled together at a cottage by the sea. Even in the calm atmosphere, the smiles of the two, who couldn’t help but be a little playful, lit up the scene from beginning to end.

At the end, they showed off the most emotional expressions of the day at a location with the setting sun in the background, and concluded the shoot.

In the interview, while looking back on the past since their time as Keyakizaka46, they talked about their memories from their nine years of activities, the reasons why they decided to graduate, their feelings for their juniors, and their message to Hinatazaka46 in the future. The story is told in a large volume of 15,000 characters, making it a must-read for fans.
