Homma said, ““I, Homma Hinata, will be graduating from NGT48. It’s been eight years since I joined NGT48 when I was 15 years old. I’ve been able to come this far with the support of so many people. Even before I joined the group, I had a big dream of becoming an actress. I’ve been preparing step by step, and I’m ready to make that dream come true.I’m graduating to take a step up. I’m excited to be away from my favorite members, and I’m also worried about the future, but I’ll do my best to come back (to Niigata) even cooler and as a bigger presence”.
