June 21, 2023 - Takeuchi Akari graduates from ANGERME and Hello! Project; Kamikokuryo Moe to succeed as new leader

On June 21, the ANGERME CONCERT 2023 BIG LOVE Takeuchi Akari FINAL LIVE "ANGERME Yori Ai wo Komete" was held at Yokohama Arena, where 2nd generation member and leader Takeuchi Akari graduated from ANGERME and Hello! Project.

Takeuchi initially joined Hello! Project on June 22, 2008 as a 4th generation member of Hello Pro Egg. In 2011, she auditioned to become a member of S/mileage and made it in as a sub-member alongside Nakanishi Kana, Tamura Meimi, Kosuga Fuyuka, and fellow Hello Pro Egg member Katsuta Rina. On October 16 of the same year, she was announced as an official 2nd generation member of the group alongside Nakanishi, Katsuta and Tamura. On November 15, 2015, she was appointed sub-leader of ANGERME alongside Nakanishi. On June 19, 2019, with Wada Ayaka's graduation, she was promoted to leader of the group. On December 20, 2022, she announced her graduation from ANGERME and Hello! Project.

A few days earlier, on June 11, it was announced at the group's concert as part of the Sayonara Nakano Sunplaza Ongakusai festival, that Kamikokuryo Moe would be succeeding Takeuchi as ANGERME's third leader, while Kawamura Ayano would remain as sub-leader.

After her graduation, Takeuchi plans on mastering calligraphy, as she has obtained the qualification of "Seisho Shihan" (a fifth-degree associate in calligraphy) and currently aiming to become a fifth-degree professor, while continuing her entertainment activities.
