It's been reported that Idoling!!!'s Kikuchi Ami will graduate from the group after their live concert 'Idoling!!! 14th Live' on November 24 at NHK Hall.

This was announced by Kikuchi herself on August 3 during their stage at 'Tokyo Idol Festival 2014'. She decided to part ways with the group in order to aim for her dream of becoming a "talento who can be successful in variety tv shows". In tears, she said, "I am going to put an end to my 6 years in Idoling!!!, and advance onto a new stage. I apologize for the sudden announcement, but it would make me happy if you would give me a warm and supportive push forward."�
