Ichii proved that last point on the album Second Morning, where she sang a catchy duet with Yasuda. The track was very well-received, and Yasuda and Ichii were put into a trio with newcomer Maki Goto called Pucchimoni. Their first single, "Chokotto Love" was a major success. However, that one single was to be Ichii's last with the group, as she left Pucchimoni and Morning Musume to continue her education in 2000.

She made her comeback in late 2001 on a collaboration called "Folk Songs" with Yuko Nakazawa, and later as part of a band called Cubic Cross. However, Cubic Cross disbanded in 2003, because Ichii and the guitarist, Naoki Yoshizawa, were getting married.
