Matsui Jurina has always been the face of SKE48 and she has appeared in 25 consecutive SKE48 singles.
But with the announcement of the 26th SKE48 single “Soyutoko aruyo ne?” to be released on January 15, 2020, Matsui Jurina is not listed in the 18-member senbatsu.
Only one SKE48 member has appeared in all single songs at this time and that is Matsui Jurina, but due to Matsui focusing on her health and currently recovering, fans would rather see a healthy Jurina more than anything, considering this is her second time in over a year since she had to take a break from the entertainment industry.
SKE48 staff also made it clear that Matsui Jurina is not graduating.
Also, announced that SKE48 veteran, Suda Akari will be the center for the 26th single.
