It has been announced that Sari and Hina Yotsuyu will be graduating from occult-inspired idol group NECRONOMIDOL on January 7th, 2019.
In a message on the group's official website, Sari stated that she has been noticing for a while that her goals for the future are starting to diverge from that of NECRONOMIDOL and that she has also begun to feel a gap between idol culture and her path forward as a performer. Hina, on the other hand, wrote that she wanted to graduate from the group before she became unable to move forward together with them. She stated that she wanted to leave the group with the same love for the members she had while they were performing together.
All of the other members of NECRONOMIDOL expressed their support for their friends and stated that they will be cheering for them in their future endeavors. The members' full comments are available in English here. They have stated that they fully intend to continue activities and they will begin auditioning new members in the near future.
NECRONOMIDOL's last overseas tour with their current line-up will be their upcoming November US East Coast tour.
