三好
「美勇伝としての３年半余りの活動によって、自分たちは成長できたと思っています。この成長を今後の自分達のそれぞれの活動に生かしていきたいと思います。期待と寂しさ半々ですが、これからの私達にも期待して下さい！」

岡田
「美勇伝の活動終了後は、それぞれハロプロメンバーの一員として、新しい気持ちで活動していくつもりです。美勇伝というグループで活動できてきたこと、ファンの皆様に出会えたこと、私たち３人は本当に誇りに思っています！皆さん、ほんとにありがとうございます！」

Ishikawa
We, v-u-den, have decided to stop our activities on the last day of our own concert tour in June. To not ruin v-u-d’s reputation, we will be working beautifully (as in ‘Vi’) and bravely (as in ‘Yu’) till our last day. Please support us!

Miyoshi
I have been growing up a lot during these 3.5 years. This makes us think about our future more. Loneliness and the feeling of looking forward is 50/50. Everyone, please support us!

Okada
After the disbanding of v-u-den, we will be working in a new style as an H!P member. We are happy that we can debut as v-u-den and meet fans. Everyone, thank you very much.

The disbanding of v-u-den was very sudden to some of us fans, especially myself. v-u-den is certainly not the lowest selling H!P group so why is v-u-den disbanding? The question remains.

This would be the first group to disband in 2008. Fans, of course did not wish to see this coming. V-u-den was the first H!P group that came to Singapore for a small tour in 2005
