During her graduation concert, Ikoma received a message from Naruto! He said:
乃木坂を卒業すると聞いて、すげー寂しいってばよ。だけどお前の覚悟、勇気、すげーかっこいいぜ。乃木坂のみんな、会場のみんなも、俺と一緒にこれからの生駒ちゃんの活躍を応援しようってばよ
“I’ve heard that you’re graduating from Nogizaka, I’m gonna miss you like crazy. But your resolution and your courage are incredibly cool. Everyone in Nogizaka and everyone in the concert hall, support Ikoma’s future endeavors together with me!”
Ikoma also received a signed drawing from the author of Naruto, Kishimoto Masashi. After seeing this on the monitor, she began to cry. She then said:
“I’ll try my best with all my might! I wasn’t planning to cry now…I’m glad to be alive.”
