· It's the last broadcast of Iikubo Haruna as a regular member. Her successor as a regular will be Morning Musume。'24 Sakurai Rio, starting from the next broadcast, on next week.

Iikubo : I look forward to watching 18 year-old Rairii grow up, and I will be cheering her on as a Yantan fan too!

Number of appearances as a guest before becoming a regular member: 

Iikubo Haruna : 9 times

Yokoyama Reina : 3 times

Sakurai Rio : 4 times

Sanma said that for the next regular members, it would be interesting to take the audience's opinions instead of just waiting for the staff members' choices.

Members' succession's line was : Mitsui Aika → Iikubo Haruna → Kudo Haruka → Yokoyama Reina → Sakurai Rio

At the time, Reina said it's Haruka herself who choose Reina to take her place.

Also, Haruna heard from Aika lately. She still studying abroad, in New Zealand. 

After her first broadcast as a guest in Young Town, Reina, Haruna and Haruka has that concert together the day after.
After the concert, Haruna came to see Reina and said : You did a great job all yesterday and today. 

Yokoyama : Yeah, I still remember that day.
