This was announced by Sashihara when she and STU48 held a live tour of STU48 Setouchi 7 ken Tour ~ Hajimemashite, STU48 desu ~ STU48 戸.......... At BLUE LIVE HIROSHIMA, Hiroshima.

Regarding the reason, Sasshi said, "Because of my schedule, I can not participate in filming the first single MV and following a handshake activity."

Furthermore, Sasahira revealed this decision was taken after seeing the relationship of captain Okada Nana and member STU48.

"When I saw the relationship of Naachan [Okada nana] with all the STU48 members, I thought I wanted to do the same with the member HKT48. Naachan's relationship with the STU48 member was incredible. I think STU48 will be a competitor for HKT48, so I can not work together [with STU48] <laugh>. " Sashihara reiterated, "I want to dedicate myself at HKT48 !."

At the end, Sashihara revealed her promise to STU48 members and fans before she left STU48. "Before I quit STU48, I'm sure I'll try to make management realize the theater for STU48 even faster because I'm so persistent and loud, so I do not have to worry about it."
