It's been announced that Shiritsu Ebisu Chuugaku member Kashiwagi Hinata will withdraw from the group after their concert in December.

Kashiwagi explained to her fans that when she took a three-month break last year, she thought about her health and her future, which ultimately led to her decision to withdraw from the group. However, she still desires to stand on stage, so she will continue her solo activities while considering her health.

Details on Kashiwagi's last live in December have not been revealed yet. "Please allow me give back to everyone with love worth the past 12 years," she said. 

Kashiwagi joined Ebichu at just 11 years old in November of 2010. Her attendance number is 10. She is known for her outstanding singing skills and has participated in TV Tokyo's 'THE Karaoke★Battle.' In March, she held a solo tour titled '-Interlude-' to commemorate her 23rd birthday making it the biggest tour of her career.
