The latest ep of Upcoming features audition footage of the TF n00bs, and uh, it appears that UF has decided that the group's trend toward higher performance needed to be curtailed, lol. Fuu-chan is the best of the three, but she's not great. Honestly, most of the KSS n00bs are better than all of them.

Didn’t we have this discussion on the previous page?
This is a place where a signature goes. Enjoy some Airi instead.

Oh shit, ha ha! I posted my reaction to your opening comment just before leaving for work, and didn't see the footage until last night. My bad.

Well good thing these girls are so young then. Plenty of time to learn!
Though honestly, listening to Akaringo's and Yokoyan's recording afterwards... nothing a good sound producer can't fix

True. H!P's recent track record wrt girls becoming at least serviceable singers is pretty good.
There's that, too! It seems like when TF's recording director wanted to go for max vulnerability, he went with Kisora, Ami and Rika, and I wonder if UF wants a few tin-ears around for that purpose?

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

They all still had that baby-deer-in-the-headlights look when they were brought out at HinaFes, lol.

Here's a Twitter thread summing up Newbaki's interview in the lastest issue of UTB.
You can click on the date to go to the full thread, but I'm gonna post this one here just because I think it's really cool:

Interesting. They are really girls without much experience. It's such a contrast to the previous generation with the actress Yuumi, the operetta singer Shiori, the popular KSS Runo and the overall new ace Marine, but I think it's the good kind of contrast. They needed some filler girls after all, with Riko and Kisora having left or are leaving.
