Re: CHOOSE THE ULTIMATE HOSHIBE SHO H!P BANGER
It just occurred to me that I won't be able to post a new poll this Sunday, as I'll be on vacation for a week starting tomorrow. I'll pick it back up when I get back.

Re: [2024.08.28] Tsubaki Factory - Baby Spider / untitled / untitled
My conspiracy theory is that the company wants to keep a link to the group's original concept, and is keen to keep them from becoming too talented.

Re: CHOOSE THE ULTIMATE HOSHIBE SHO H!P BANGER
Who would have thought I'd vote for two Morning songs in one round. But to be fair, those are among the best songs in the 2010s and 2020s. For real. though. Furthermore, the two songs that I agonized over the most before voting for something else were also MM songs. From a strictly hit-to-miss rati...

Re: The Ultimate BeriKyuu Song Battle!
This album is so fucking good, and I can't believe these songs went to a group of literal children, but such was the level of Tsunku's output at that time. There's only one sure-fire pick for me, but the rest (save for Hello! no Theme) are all in contention for the other two, and it's gonna be hell ...

Seems like this thing is losing steam the longer it goes on, with seemingly only three people casting votes in the last round. :lol: A 4-way tie for 4th between songs only receiving a single vote means only these three songs move on to the next round: Dosukoi!

Kishimon's "You Are I" PV just dropped. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFuWYhapF-c It's interesting that both of Kishimon's solo videos have been shot in 4:3 aspect ratio, which is usually something you do when going for a retro vibe, but nothing else about either of these clips are retro...

I totally forgot to post the new poll last night, so here it is! The next Round 2 battle features Kobushi Factory, Juice=Juice and Country Girls. Four votes to move four songs to the next round.

LMFAO! I'm cool with it, even though my choice didn't make it. "Kimi Dake ja nai sa...friends" joines Atsui and Nana Korobi Ya Oki in the next round, and all the others don't.

Re: [2024.05.15] Juice=Juice - Tokyo Blur / Naimono Love / Oaiko
Finally listened to Oaiko and these are my first impressions. It feels like it’s been sitting in the back of Tsunku’s drawer since the 2000s. It’s got a very early mid H!P feel to it with the rap and the instrumental. It’s more Morning Musume than Juice to me. The MV is kind bland and forgettable. ...

Alright, I'm gonna give y'all one shot at this. One day, six songs, one vote, two songs move on. I'm willing to move three to the next round, but If there are more than three in a 1st place tie or more than two in a 2nd place tie, they all get eliminated. Sorry, but ain't nobody got time for this. :...

Re: The Official Unofficial Kenshuusei Guide + News Source
Yeah, she's probably gonna end up in the new group, which might end up being for the best since it seems like when they debut groups in twos a year or so apart, it's the latter of the two that's more successful.

You know, as much as I love the Hoshibe/Biyo funky pop formula, it's nice to hear some great light pop like this because they're so good at it. I really love this.

Atsui doing well is less surprising to me than Nana Korobi Ya Oki taking 1st in every poll it's been in so far. I mean, it makes me happy, but I honestly thought I was gonna be the only one voting for it.

Re: [2024.05.29] Beyooooonds - Hai to Diamond / Go City Go / Hooke no Housoku
My immediate reaction is that I like the song quite a bit, and yet there's this nagging nit-pick that it's kinda formulaic for Beyonds in the same way that "Tokyo Blur" is for J=J. Early 80s funky disco-pop is Hoshibe's and Biyo's wheelhouse, but a big part of the fun of this group is taki...
