I know I am 100 years late on this, but Kaneko Rie leader of Hello Project Kenshuusei left the project on December 14th 2013 but decided to stay till the end of the Hello Pro Kenshuusei Happyoukai 2013 ~12gatsu no Nama Tamago Show!~ When I first heard about this, I indeed felt sad. Although I wasn't a fan of her, I honestly hoped that if she stayed something good will happen to her. I can tell she worked hard as a Kenshuusei and she wasn't the prettiest girl but she had something that made her shine and I think that was effort. I hope she will be successful on whatever she might do in the future!
