AKB48 has postponed the release of their album, �Koko ni Ita Koto�, which was originally set to drop on April 6th.

AKB48�s official blog states:

To the victims of the Tohoku Pacific Ocean earthquake, you have our deepest heartfelt sympathies. We sincerely pray that there is a quick recovery.

We had originally planned on releasing AKB48�s album, �Koko ni Ita Koto�, on April 6th, but due to the earthquake on March 11th, it has affected the production schedule and it�s difficult to choose an appropriate day for release.

Most of all, we are taking the feelings of those affected by the earthquake and subsequent tsunami into consideration. It is because of this that we have decided to postpone the album.

We beg that everyone understands and accepts this.
