The story
Hello! Project idol group Rosy Chronicle announced on November 8 that member Karin Onoda would miss that day’s performance at Shinjuku ReNY, part of the “Live Tour 2026 Autumn ~Blueprint~,” due to poor health. On a 5ch thread, users pointed out that several other members — Soma, Biyo, Kitahara, and Kirara Yonemura — had already sat out shows this autumn, with some speculating that the group’s grueling schedule may be to blame. Meanwhile, posts mimicking the format of the official announcement but containing inaccurate information also circulated, becoming a point of concern within the thread.
What people said
Thank you for your continued support of Rosy Chronicle. Due to poor health, member Karin Onoda will not be appearing in today's scheduled performance of "Rosy Chronicle Live Tour 2026 Autumn ~Blueprint~ Shinjuku ReNY (Tokyo)."
We're getting into territory where even a joking punch could end up breaking a bone.
Given how thin she's gotten, let's hope this doesn't turn into something serious.
Guess Sundays are rough for that.
There are only a handful of places open.
If you're in Tokyo, or the parts of Kanagawa, Saitama, or Chiba close to Tokyo, your local municipality always has somewhere open.
Look at you backpedaling already.
Even Black Jack would scoff at that price tag (Black Jack is a manga surgeon famous for charging outrageous fees).
Who's supposed to do 'Misery' now?!
The Onoda who doesn't go to Enoshima, huh?
No need to go all the way out there just to get checked out.
How can you be so sure?
I only wrote that because someone said there's no hospital open on Sundays — what's with that response?
Soma
Biyo
Gotou (mid-tour absence)
Kitahara
Yonemura
Karin Onoda
Shimoitani also had a mid-tour absence around the same time as Gotou.
So was it ever confirmed who was actually out during Biyo's case?
Background and key points of this topic
Rosy Chronicle has seen a string of members — Soma, Biyo, Gotou, Kitahara, Kirara Yonemura, and now Onoda — miss performances this autumn, and the thread showed notable concern over a schedule packed with shows involving long-distance travel. When an idol group announces a member’s “absence,” the reason isn’t always limited to poor health, and that ambiguity creates fertile ground for posts mimicking the format of official statements to spread while their accuracy remains unconfirmed. This time, too, posts containing inaccurate information circulated shortly after the announcement, but the agency’s official statement cited only poor health as the reason for the absence, with nothing else confirmed. The thread contained both messages of concern for her health and criticism of the group’s overloaded schedule.
