The official website for the 22/7 idol project announced on Monday that Mina Kiyoi, who plays the character Kaede Nagamine, is ceasing her activities with the franchise by the end of November due to her continued worsening health.
Mei Hanakawa left the 22/7 idol group in December 2019 for health reasons.
The site had initially announced a hiatus for Kiyoi on October 13, but her health continued to deteriorate since then.
The group held an audition for new members in 2021, the second audition since the initial recruitment in October 2016.
