I, Ogawa Noa, will withdraw from NMB48.
I am really sorry for making an announcement through the blog which I actually should have told you in person.
My leg which I injured in April never healed. I consulted with staff members and adjusted the number of theater shows etc but the physician in charge said that as long as I continued to dance I would not recover completely and a surgery might become necessary, so I decided to resign.
I am full of thankful feelings towards those who have always supported me. To my kind senpai who have taught me a lot of things until today, to the staff members who until now guided me and always supported me, to all 4th Generation members with whom I have done my best together, I am really sorry for only causing you troubles, thank you for everything. I am full of gratitude.
The words you adressed to me have always given me a lot of courage and this is how I came so far. That I could get back on my feet even at hard times and frustrating times is thanks to you all. Thank you very much.
With gratitude towards you in my heart, I will focus on my recovery and I will do my best to strive towards my dream once again.
I am really glad that I was able to make several precious experiences during the days I spent as NMB48 member.
I love you all and NMB48.
Thank you so so much.
