C-ute to disband in 2017

Yesterday several newspapers announced the disbandment of C-ute.
This has been confirmed soon after by management and C-ute themselfs.
The group announced they will break up as a group in June of 2017
C-ute had been thinking about stopping eversince Hagiwara Mai got 20, but as they hadn't preformed at their dream stage, they didn't want to break up yet.
So when management announced to them they would preform at Saitama Super Arena, their dream stage, the girls decided this would also be their last stage as a group. 
Ofcourse they thought about going on as a group outside of H!P, but C-ute found that the group was an important part of H!P and couldn't take it away. They also thought about putting the group on Haitus, like their fellow H!P Kids members Berryz Koubou did. Yet the girls thought it would be best if they "broke up" after their SSA preformance. 
C-ute will not be taking part in the Hello!Pro winter concert of 2017, to focus on their last single and concert tour. This means the group is currently preforming in their last Hello!Pro concert. 
More details will probably be announced soon, as they will probably make an official, tearful statement during todays Hello!con. 

For me this means after June of 2017 only Momoko and Ayaka will be around from the time I became a Hello!Pro fan, which is really weird. I have to say I am much less shocked with C-ute ending acitivities than with Berryz Koubou. Maybe because I really saw this coming. I kind of had 2017 in my mind as the last year with C-ute. Yet it makes me sad to see them go, as they are a great group with great song and an amazing history. Let's all support C-ute till the very end and look forwards to some new releases (last single, best of album etc etc).
