Couldn't help but write a little something about this. It's sad, but I'm not surprised. On an up note, marriage proposals to Ume-chan can start post-retirement. There's already a queue, but if you hurry you may get a spot in line that's in sight of the Hana no Michi.
Seriously though, I'm glad she was able to come back to soragumi to finish up her career. I'm sure as an OG she will continue to be stunning.
