[quote="Anderei"] I saw the preview photos of this and I feel like the hairstyling ruins it. It’s unusually glam for them and then you get the regular idol hair. [/quote]   Yeah I agree, but I'd even go a step further and say that the regular makeup/styling doesn't suit the hair color eith...

I'm sticking by my original judgement that it's definitely her.   I still can't get over the fact that the artist who drew her avatar is an H!P fan who has interacted with Harunan and drawn an H!P manga, lol. Of course there's still all the other stuff on top that just solidifies it for me. She's be...

I feel like there's multiple things of importance here...   #1: CG songs weren't vocal-heavy (at least from what I can tell), and if there were such lines they usually went to Momoko/Funakki/Yamaki  #2: Ju=Ju does usually improve the vocals of their newly added members. But she's had some decent sol...

Yeah, it's hard to tell if they're just being diplomatic to avoid conflict/issues with fans, or if they're being extra mindful of the girls' mental health. Whatever the reason, it's probably a softer blow to handle than immediately getting fired and scorned by the public and media. As long as it doe...

Maa-chan's birthday event was really hard to watch... she's got some vocal issues happening I swear. Wouldn't be surprised if they announce after this tour she's got vocal nodules or she just straight up announces her grad. While most girls sound really good after their rest, she sounds worse than e...

Hilarious that now Youtube is recommending me Kiki vs Risa videos 
 
Such as this one

[quote="WonderBuono"] It’s always so interesting to me when this stuff comes out because idol groups give the illusion on stage that they are best friends and then I’m reminded... that’s not usually how it works in reality. Can someone explain to me the bit about Kiki getting a member of m...

I agree, it does seem there's some definite envy or insecurity in her position/self that seems to come through all of these complaints. She's just going to have to learn the valuable lesson that just because you think you work the hardest, or you're the most talented, or you're the most serious abou...

Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl   I get that we're in a whole new era of idols in terms of social media. You've got so many platforms to have a private account on and plenty of complaints about your job. But come on. How can you expect to talk shit about your coworkers and have it end well, in...

So happy for her, we all missed her. Glad she will still be able to have some creative expression for the public to enjoy <3
 
Welcome back to the public world, Aiai

Yeah, it's hard to tell if she's implying she's bi, or if she "fell in love" with a girl but she was just never convinced of that sexuality either. It's obvious from this interview, though, that she wants to change the way some Japanese people still view gay people, as if they're a differe...

[quote="Saya"] Hmmm it could be fake. I read through the screenshots and it also just doesn’t seem like her? Obviously I don’t know her, but the text seems like a whole different person. [/quote]   That's what I thought.... If this is her, she seems to be a pretty serious party girl, lol. ...

Stumbled across this video of Meimei singingPopular from the play Wicked.

I figured they were worried if they allowed streaming that somehow physical sales would decline... However, handshake events pretty much prevent that.

Once you start seeing new hair colors and styles on a person in MM, you can pretty much guarantee they're gonna graduate soon lmao
 
NO VARIETY ALLOWED.

Heads up, the maybe-it-is, maybe-it-isn't Zukki channel uploaded again--this time a cover of SHISHAMO's "Natsu no Koibito"   The film/editing/mixing was done by MONCO, AKA some random girl from Instagram (she also mixed the previous two covers and provided the pictures.) I'm assuming it's ...

Here's Kamiko doing some more modelling work doing a "cover girl" Q&A for Salon Tokyo, as she's the September cover girl.

Seeing these poppin up, Im starting to wonder if we might get an album out this?

I wouldn't mind something along the lines of the old "Chanpuru 1~Happy Marriage Song Cover Shuu~" album.... I actually really liked that album. Just a bunch of covers.

Same, I'll take whatever Riho I can get... And I think there's a lot more hardcore fans that feel that even more strongly than I do, lol. She has the abilities to be a true entertainer, so I'm curious to see how far she takes this and what type of entertainment she'll do.

Yessss another Takui song coming up!

I'm really glad the company has been able to focus on more solo stuff the past number of months. Not only is great for us fans, I think solo work helps the idols grow as well. 

Heads up, the maybe, maybe-not Zukki channel just posted another cover, this time for Kosui ... Which may sound familiar to you since Momohime sang it for her COVERS song both on stage and then on J-Melo.   So that's two-for-two in terms of covering songs that H!P members are doing for this COVERS B...

Thanks for the other links! I was trying to search by names, but not every member popped up just by their actual full name.   It seems like most of these have sprung up since lockdowns happened... I guess everyone starts a channel when they're bored/maybe can't do any other work. Curious to see if i...
