Re: CHOOSE THE ULTIMATE HOSHIBE SHO H!P BANGER

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.

Re: [2024.05.15] Juice=Juice - Tokyo Blur / Naimono Love / Oaiko

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...

Re: Hello!Spam :: 2023 ~Dancing, Singing, Exciting!~

^^^ 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).

Re: Kasahara Momona Becomes Candidate on Produce 101 Japan

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 ...

Re: UFP/OG Spam Thread :: All things non-Hello!Project Related!

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.

Wow, they really went full out with the effects. The MV is on the level or even better than some of the main groups' MVs.
The song fits Manakan really well imo. I like it. Sounds somewhat retro even?

Longest H!P tenure is still Momochi at 15 years and 27 days. Then come the last °C-ute girls at 15 years and 9 days. And then ...

Re: Ichioka Reina graduates from BEYOOOOONDS

I really don’t think UF can pull out another group and keep with these generational groups. They are going to stretch themselves way too thin. I prefer quality of quantity and UF if starting to fail, hard. Honestly, the idea of a second KSS Unit was dumb. OCHA was already the leftovers from those t...

Ichioka Reina graduates from BEYOOOOONDS

Official Announcement.

Not much information of course, but her health condition has been going up and down with no real improvement, so management and she came to the conclusion it would be better for her to graduate.

I feel really sorry for her. This is really the worst end.

That's such a good idea! Will give it a try once I find the time. I would certainly not start drama over your list :lol:
Also, might be missing some in my scan, but did you rank only Anju songs? Or would S/mileage songs in general not rank that high for you?

The new m-line is going to be super interesting. They probably want to push Kiki as much as they can, but I can't see them doing the same for Riko.
