Rairi and Rio are shaping up to be the next “Big Duo” that we will all eventually hate because they aren’t giving the new members any screen time. Provided of course Rio sticks around long enough for her to be the senior member. There is a lot of weight that needs to be shed before that comes to fru...

Hello!Project Tenure is like any job. You put in the ten+ years that means you can pick and choose what you do. Heck Risako did squat but run a social media account and get married and yet she was still an “active” member for years.

Fukumura is going the Sayumi route. She’ll be MIA for a while and then come back and do whatever she pleases. She doesn’t need to do what the younger girls are doing. She may not even decide to go solo. It will be interesting to see what she ends up doing.

Hello! Next tiebreaker is up.

1 song moves on. Poll closes on Wednesday. Good luck!

Sorry for delay. Covid knocked my ass out Wednesday and yesterday. I’m feeling a little better today.

You created another tie. So break this one by picking 1 song so we can move on.

Vote ends on Monday.

Suzuki Airi's other tie-in with Amazon. A song called, I Got Prime〜音楽込みで、プライムでしょ。〜


Airi's high notes are a little too much in this but good for her on getting a deal with Amazon.

I listened to a smidge. But I'll wait for the music video. It makes or breaks a song for me. At least in terms of H!P.

Moving on to the Tie-Breaker Rounds.

Top 2 move on in this first battle, but you only get 1 vote to decide. Poll will close on Wednesday.

Hana moves her head around like she’s in the middle of the Brady Bunch opening.

I hope Life is Beautiful has a fun MV. The covers give off that vibe. But I’ve been burned before so I shouldn’t take too much stock in it just yet.

H!P has gotten a lot more girl fans over the years. They've also started to do more festivals than in previous years. People complain they are slow to evolve. But if I was an international time-traveler the stuff I would find would wow me non the less. Youtube Channels for all the groups, WITH whole...

I came to post this earlier but the BBS was down. I didn’t know KAN was sick. Cancer sucks!

I hope UF/H!P put together some sort of tribute concert/album for him.

Also to note since I just saw it, Miura Yoshiko passed away too. She did a lot of lyrics for H!P, mostly for Mano Erina.

I accidently caused a tie for the last round. Sorry about that. We have another tie-breaker round. Opps.

Anyway, new round is up, it's the copy pasta palooza! Top 3 move on. Poll ends on Monday.

Oh! Not H!P, but Sayumi being a soloist and releasing music would be pretty wild to find out.

A pale horse appeared, with it, carrying the load of 2023's new song releases. It was small, but worthy of being mentioned.

You get 3 votes. The horse will gallop off on Wednesday.

Airi finally cashing in on that performance of IDOL.


She gets a CM collab with Ai from Oshi no Ko.

Was it not him on Suggoi Fever?

It was Matsubara Ken. Tsunku does some notes when he releases songs and he mentioned who it was. https://note.tsunku.net/n/nb60aaf7fa973

Nice. I’m glad Tsunku got that nod.

The H!P community threw her on a pedestal that honestly I don’t think the producers of Produce 101 realized to the extent how big it was. It’s clear in the first few episodes they had a predetermined narrative and then the public got wind of the former idols and the narrative shifted. H!P may be pop...

It’s nice they gave spotlight to the instrumental team. They don’t get enough love. They are pretty amazing.

Mifu looks so stiff. You can feel the nerves oozing off her. I hope she can warm up by the next single release, if her ear issue can be resolved like Homaru’s.

I hope they go back home and warn Tsunku to check on his health. He might still have a voice. But most obvious, they would be surprised at Fukumura for sure. I’d be surprised at Karin too. I was just watching an old Dohhh Up clip from one of their shows and Karin was such a baby! And then she just r...

We got another tie in the last round. But it's the start of another round today. The Cover/Unit purge (with addition of Musical Best) Poll ends on Monday. Top 3 move on.

This is a Korean show so a Kpop theme was pretty much guaranteed.

Morning Musume '23 ( Morning Musume has the ability to anger me and surprise me EVERY DAMN YEAR! I love them to death but the frustrate me to no end. ) :hahaha: - Wake-up Call ~Mezameru Toki~ - Suggoi FEVER! - HEAVY GATE - Last Kiss (23 Ver.) - Nanzansho Souzansho - Chokotto LOVE (23 Ver.) - Neveren...

Other Cover Purge Vote is Up. Top 3 Move on!

The urge to go to a coffee shop in Cambridge and visit a museum to culture myself just intensified.

Hey Hey! Next Round is up. It's Updates and Remixes. Polls will close on Wednesday. Top 3 move on, unless we get some spicy ties.

That’s what I get for rushing. It’s fixed now!

With your loving vote done, Phase 7 Starts NOW! You have 3 votes, you know the deal. Any ties will end up on the block. Only 3 winners move on.

Poll will last till Monday. It's the start of the end. Sort of.

They are going to save her for the, you came from a top performance company why aren’t you better, trope, once the dead weight girls are gone.
