Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
This really should be in it's own thread. Announced at the winter concert.
<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="Solarblade" data-cid="182883" data-time="1420196406">
Another KSS unit has been announced, it's 8 members consisting of: Hamaura, Taguchi, Ogawa, Nomura, Wada, Fujii, Hirose, and Inoue Rei</blockquote>
The lineup and overall vocal ability makes me think this is the new cutesy group lol. I like Natsumi but overall this isn't a super exciting lineup for me. I'll have to wait and see how their music turns out.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
KKS??? Lol
And I agree, out of those 8, 5 are known for their cute vocals (Hamaura, Taguchi, Nomura, Fujii, and Ogawa) while Wadasaku and Ayapan have stronger vocals....and iono how Reirei sounds so shes the wild card for me here
Cant help but think Kurumin and Tanapyon are a little salty with this group lol

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Oops. I meant to put KSS lol. I'm on my phone so forgive me.
I feel bad that Tanabe just left because I feel like she probably would've made it into one of these units.
I've been under the impression that Sakurako was a terrible singer but I'll take your word for it.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
She's gotten better, but she's still awful, imo. She has a very flat tone and frequently goes off pitch.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Oh! What i meant was she has deeper vocals compared to the others, but Ayaka has strong vocals from what i heard in her performances, my bad lol
Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Also, these 8 are going to be in a stage play with Maasa in March.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Yeah I'm also sad about Nanami... I feel like she could've been in this group. But good for KSS, 15 of them have debuted now (in the past couple months). I'm excited for Rena am of course Hama-chan. I've always wanted Hama-chan and Tagucchi to be in the same group as well so that's nice. I also really like Sakurako and Nomura has a nice voice. I've never been interested in Fujii and know nothing about the others, so I lok forward to their future activities!
Well here's to hoping they will debut Ruru in MM some day.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Ayano <3 My interest in this group is already high.
Based on these singing samples, Sakurako and Ayaka have the best voices of the group. Keep in mind that I didn't analyze any of them very much.
I look forward to their debut.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Another new group, interesting choices. I don't really know much about most of the Kenshuusei. Kinda worried that C-ute will go on hiatus this year.

Is Rena Ogawa related to Saki Ogawa? She sure reminds me of her.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Someone made a video that showcases some vocals from the members of that new H!P unit that still has yet to be named: http://youtu.be/M3P8EavyD6U. Hirose's voice sounds really good, in my opinion.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
There's an actual thread for them if y'all want to give it some love. Especially since there's been no news about them.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Copy paste from spam thread
I'm excited for Hirose and Natsumi. Here's a performance featuring Ayano and Natsumi as well as J=J's Karin and Sayuki, and former Egg Nanami. I think it shows off Natsumi's voice better than the clips in that video.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
So you know how their name was supposed to be announced sometime in January?
On the H!P site there's a statement saying how now the name will be announced later. Guess they haven't thought of one yet.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Maybe they decided Berryz Replacement would be tacky.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
You figure they would have had a name once they picked the members. I guess they got over zealous and rushed them and Country Girls a bit.
<p class="bbc_center">
Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
I really hope their style is close to early Berryz. I don't really want them to be Berryz replacement but I already think of them like that even though we have nothing from them. Plus I've been listening through the Kanjuku set and I really miss the old Berryz style.

Let's guess which member will unexpectedly leave. Since it's always my favorites I'm gonna guess Rena.

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
Oh Ayano cut her hair. (Or is it a wig for the play?) they all look good though!

Re: Kobushi Factory - New KSS Unit
This is the play they're doing with Maasa, for those who don't know.
Also, could you imagine the disconnect if they were styled like this all the time with their voices? It'd actually be kind of funny.
