The story
Perfume’s A-chan (37) announced in English on her Instagram on September 21 that she held a wedding ceremony with only family present at Lake Como, Italy. The post, shared alongside words celebrating the group’s debut anniversary, included a three-shot photo of A-chan with fellow members Nocchi and Kashiyuka, along with a message calling the two of them “family” as well. On 5ch, while many comments praised Nocchi and Kashiyuka’s outfits, posts about rising prices at the brand said to employ her husband stood out, and the discussion drifted from the wedding itself toward tangential chatter.

A-chan (37), of the three-member unit Perfume — which entered “cold sleep” (a self-described hiatus) at the end of 2025 — updated her social media on the 21st to announce that she held a wedding ceremony in Italy with only her family present.
The Instagram post was written in English: a joyful message reading, in essence, “September 21st is our debut anniversary. Congratulations to us!!!!” followed by, “I got married with just my family at Lake Como, Italy. Of course, you two are part of my family too” — accompanied by a three-shot photo with Kashiyuka and Nocchi.

What people said
It's the go-to spot for celebrities worldwide right now
Hasn't Kashiyuka been a married woman for ages already?
Having two by 40 is
a pretty tight schedule
Savanna Takahashi (the comedian), was it?
The canvas-bag shop guy
Probably gets written off as an expense?
That's definitely going to end in a fight
No matter how many people are involved, it's still like this?
In the end, scary is scary
He was a really nice guy
Just looked it up — a strap alone was going for 26,000 yen (~$175) lol
Her build is different from the other two, who already look petite, so being the thinnest of the group is pretty extreme…
That's less "effort" and more sheer self-discipline…
doesn't that come with some religious hassle?
Like having to attend church beforehand or something?
Their stores look like luxury boutiques now
when high schoolers used to carry their bags back in the day
Might be a tight window for the other two to have kids at this point
Modest, intelligent, and elegant vibe
Yeah, it's gotta be Nocchi
Do they have more male fans than female fans?
I've heard a lot of the male fans are the "serious oshi-love" type (fans who treat it like an actual romantic relationship)
How carefree, getting married while Japan's going through a rough patch
Background and Talking Points
Perfume has been in a self-described “cold sleep” hiatus since the end of 2025, and A-chan’s wedding announcement came during that period. The fact that the announcement date coincided with the group’s debut anniversary also appears to have been chosen deliberately to match her message. In the thread, speculation spread that the husband is “the heir to Yoshida Kaban (Porter),” but this is a guess readers drew from the post’s content, not an official statement from A-chan or her agency. There were also moments where discussion of Porter’s ever-rising prices generated more buzz than the wedding itself, and the thread’s tendency to drift from the main topic into tangential chatter is one of its notable features.
