Man. Hoshibe really is the man. These polls made me realize just HOW many bangers he wrote. I always knew about Biyo's stuff, but there's some of my favourite Juice and CG songs too!

I think the world was not ready for 1oku3zenman Sou Diet Oukoku.

<_< <_< <_< Great, exactly what I thought would happen is going to happen. 3 H!P singles in the span of 5 weeks. Pretty sure Tsubaki is going to squeeze somewhere inbetween because of Kisora's grad. Which brings us another problem: It feels like every single is a graduation single. Some of those are...

It’s okay but it’s missing a pop. Like it’s not going to its full potential. The vocals just aren’t hitting me right. I feel like Karin could have added a lot to the vocals if she were still in the group. Kind of like I needed her tone to really drive it home. It’s like, scratching an itch but just...

Announcement Has been thinking about graduation since last year and wants to try new music and environments. - - - :ph34r: Please no great Biyo exodus. Though to be fair, I can understand her. She was thought of as THE new star in H!P, then Biyo lost their momentum, they barely did anything anymore...

This feels surprisingly natural, despite sounding very non-H!P. I actually feel like watching this again.

Nearly forgot about the new Tsubaki girls until they dropped the new profile picture:

Graduation date is June 10 at Budokan.

That's really girl boss vibes.

Understandable. March 31 was probably her last day under contract.

FINALLY. I'm glad they didn't push them further back due to Reina's graduation (bc of rerecording etc.). At first I thought the song was not very Biyo, but they still made it work. Also Miyo is definitely the center here, damn, she was commanding that room. Miimi was also great, nice to see her go f...

I'm glad they're doing festivals nowadays, or else they'd be completely invisible to the general public without single releases.

I kind of expected Yumeno to go solo. She has always been ambitious. Nice to see. Hope that she's successful, out-of-UF former H!P idols have it hard. I love that she sings differently, too. Mai's song and MV is also pretty good, but it sounds like it could go to any of the newere m-line members. Li...

Oops!

Well, might be just me but Hoshibe didn't bang as hard as he could with Kobushi. Several songs are still amazing, but it's not like previous rounds imo.

I love Itoshima Distance lol.
However, the real crime is that Akai Earphone is just an album song. Might be one of the best album songs in H!P ever.

I think most fans would gladly go back to double- or even single a-sides at this point if it gave us more releases because otherwise we have literal radio silence for several groups for months :ph34r: I do like the m-line theory though. They do have the big sellers there nowadays, especially with Ka...

^^^ Glad that Biyo still does things lol. And apparently the public care a bit, too!

^^ Man, too bad about Yuki, because I think she's one of the best singers that joined "recently". Love Narin too, though.

I guess this is going to be a short-lived group that might get some of the members a chance for the bigger entertainment world (mostly in terms of vtuber or the like though).

Going there a second time is already pretty great, to me it doesn't matter that she doesn't go solo lol.

Absolutely not my kind of music. But yes, I have to admit that they're great at what they're doing and ticking all the boxes for this kind of genre. The dance part (during the black and white/sepia effect) was pretty damn cool. Obviously at this point they're still trying to show off every girl for ...

I will always be a sucker for Dschingis Khan.

Still a beautiful song, wonderfully sung. My only complaint is that the recording sounds a bit too choir-y, as if they've set the microphones to echo.

Also miss Risa, that was her song imo haha.

It wouldn't be as bad if those 6-12 months breaks were for specific groups, but a 6 month break for the whole agency is incredibly long. Of course they've been doing concerts and are starting their spring concert rounds, but eh. Not much content for fans. From what I've seen even the Japanese fans a...

Oof, this reminds me of the songs from the samplers I used to buy as a teenager and skip. It's a real nothing song to me. But at least Manakan has charisma, or otherwise this wouldn't work at all.

This being a super-produced artificial release was to be expected.

As someone who has not followed Baby Berryz (I thought they were uninteresting little brats, lmao), the first few rounds will be very interesting to me.

Shuffles? Sweet.

LMAO. I'm also sure those "rules" are never as strict as they're written down, but in general the popular girls can do what they want.

Great, already lost my 6 votes on the first 6 songs again! Man, Hoshibe really was on something here.
