There's no further info on her solo activities, other then a debut is scheduled in the future. According to Tsunku she will now enter a preparation period before making an actual solo debut.

Wow this was unexpected i wonder what kind of things she'll get to do

maybe shes gonna be like Koharu or maybe like a young Ayaya that'd be cool

i wasn't expecting a graduation from OG yet

what do you think about this?

I'm quite surprised too!
It's good news for her, but I'm attached to OG's style, and I'm wonder what they're going to do without Mano who could've bring some fanbase.

I also think it'll be something like young Ayaya, well let's see
