Thank you, I have heard of the same restriction in other groups. Rather stupid I think and unfair it possibly accounts for the high turnover of girls in AKB48. From the reaction of fans it looks as if the stupid restriction that could be dropped as it doesn't seem to affect the fans.

We don't know the *exact* reason, but the leadup was- A photo of her and her boyfriend was discovered on her personal blog. AKB48 girls aren't allowed BFs, so she was suspended from performing in Team B shows indefinitely, and during that time her friends posted hateful messages about the fans on her personal blog (which she deleted) and their own. Fans didn't want her to go, they even petitioned to bring her back, so the fans aren't to blame (like people try to). It was management's decision.

Wikipedia says she was fired from AKB48 why?
