She's such a good girl.


What a wonderful thing to come out of this "situation," haha.

[DonJuan]

And on a sadder note...

Okai Chisato ended her contract and will retire fron shobiz: https://mobile.twitter.com/hipnewsservice/status/1256160214656733185

[momoirosaya]

Makes sense. Sad her career had to need in the way in did though, I felt like she could have continued on successfully.

[DonJuan]

That's also what gets me. Chisato had good ties to some talk shows. If it hadn't been for her affair with a married man she could have gone on quite well.

[DonJuan]

Happier notes! :)
 
Riho went live on Instagram and Aichan joined her! This account has a summary in English (unfortunately not in a thread...) https://twitter.com/JPN_ENG_Kanda/status/1256432846308163586
 
Here's a YouTube link to the live: https://youtu.be/pxN841Y-Hmk
 
My highlights:
- Riho wants to speak English in her next live :)
- of the MM songs after her graduation she likes I Surrender and Jiyuu na Kuni
- H!P wide she really likes Anju's Koi wa Accha Accha
- Riho and Ai (or rather their families) hang out regularly
- she has mentioned Kanon <3 Kanon is doing well. 9ki have a lively Line chat which is currently flooded with Animal Crossing lol.
-> Riho wanted to try it since she's the only one who doesn't play Animal Crossing, but when she went to buy a Switch it was sold out (Japan really has Switch stock issues since Animal Crossing was such a hit).

The Switch stock issues are actually worldwide and its because the factories that makes them are closed down. Animal Crossing did lead to a boost in sales, and so did Corona...

[DonJuan]

Ah, interesting to know. I've only heard about the situation in Japan, and I thought it happened before Corona already... but yeah, makes sense that the production is down currently.

[momoirosaya]

Kana now has an Instagram.

She is also live with Mano as I type this.

[DonJuan]

Kannagi Maro (yes, Fukuda Kanon) uploaded a "music video" to the song "Maro Maro Jodo". Fitting the Corona times it's been recorded completely at her home with her camera.

If you loved H!P's close up and dance shot style, you'll love this.

She's going live again sometime today (in Japan)! She just announced it 10 minutes ago haha.


Edit: She's doing it here in ten, at 3AM EST!

Her English was so cute! I hope she speaks more English next time. She was able to answer questions surprisingly quickly and fluidly. It seems that she's been keeping up with it since moving back to Japan.

Chisato is back-ish with an instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/okaichisato_0621/

Oh man did you see that interview with her sister?...Is she okay? 

[DonJuan]

^I haven't, and apparently she... isn't? She already has deleted her insta profile and the YouTube channel is also gone now.

I just checked and both still exist, just her Instagram posts and the videos have been deleted.

[DonJuan]

Oh, well that's something at least.

[sayu1991]

I only saw a rough translation of her interview with her sister and....yikes. I was very much a fan of her during her C-ute days but ever since then she seems to be in a downward spiral.

[arcobaleno]

Do you happen to have a link to the translation, Sayu? I'm getting super curious to see what it was all about, now.

Here you go. Hopefully, the links will take you to the right posts. They're very rough translations because the person who runs this page isn't fluent in English. Its enough to understand though.

[momoirosaya]

I actually thought it was refreshing how honest she was. Although her motives are questionable (i.e. money), but hey everyone’s gotta pay bills.

[WonderBuono]

I watched the first video (and was surprised at how much I understood) and I didn’t see a problem. I mean the AV question was a little much but she was clearly just joking about it.

She’s not an idol anymore, are people still expecting her to act like one?

[DonJuan]

To be fair the three boyfriends in two years was a bit funny to me. Seems like idols really have to hold back and often go full out once they graduate.
At least she didn't get pregnant as soon as Risako.

Things like this is what makes me realize how much I love H!P. 

[DonJuan]

^^Always a real mood lifter.
 
^^^Just read about Risako's second pregnancy lol. Well, at least it seems like she's somewhat happy with her husband.

She seems fine, mostly just kind of naive and overcompensating a bit.

That's exactly what I was thinking while watching it.

Riho did another live last night, with the most notable bit: she sang a couple songs, namely ENDLESS SKY and Toki/Sora. ????
