Living for the piano-violin-mix. But yeah, the mixing is difficult. I wish they still had Juice's avengers for that, though.

Yeah, just replacing Ebata or Ishiyama with Ruru, ReiRei or Riai would've been great, but this is still my favorite live of Mugan.

Her poor bow lol

Hopefully they figure out how to mix the violin in better. It was getting way overpowered by everything else.

Rena seems like a pretty decent performer already.

She is very cute, but her dancing is on point. Just saying, MM will probably add a KSS to their new generation, and while Mifu is an option, they could always add two.

Yesterday's Hello! Station features three performances from Juice=Juice's Feb 28 show: "STAGE ~Agatte Mina~," "POPPIN' LOVE," and "Never Never Surrender." I set the time of the video to Never Surrender, because Ichika gets Sayuki's fake at the end, and WTF, when did she learn to do this?

I was wondering who didn't get anyone in, it really took me a while lol. And this is the first HinaFes without Akane being in any of the special performances!

The Anju/Tsubaki trio could be amazing. Also looking forward to Riai's solo.

Yup to both of those. And the JJ/Biyo and MM/OCHA duos are both sleepers that could be great, with each pairing an established strong singer with a good newer singer. I'm actually looking forward to Ebata's solo, too.

^ I presume this was a covid era rule. I suppose it makes sense but damn not getting any feedback apart from applause and lightsticks as a performer must have been weird.

It's actually nice that they're enforcing the restrictions on tickets already sold. There may be people who bought with that expectation.

That said, I just attended a Hiro concert the other night and two Koda Kumi concerts today (about to enter the second), and everybody seemed really happy to interact.

FINALLY! The girls did well during the covid-concerts, but I'd be lying if I said H!P performances were the same without cheers.
Also, this would be the first time for Anju's Narin, Shion, Wakana and Yuki, Juice's Ichioka, Risa, Ebata, Sakura and Endo, Tsubaki's Yuumi, Shiori, Marine and Yofu, MM's Rairi and OCHA NORMA as a whole to hear their names shouted during performances. This is sick. And it's not like Juice's YumeRiai, MM's 15th gen and Anju's Rin had much of it before, having joined in mid 2019!

3 long years. I'm glad we had some really great girls join during this time because the weaker ones would have just lost 3 years of their lifes.

I wonder which would be worse: having never experienced the energy of a live show with cheers and chants, or having experienced it briefly only to have it taken away for three years? I suppose neither is worse than experiencing it for your entire career, then graduating in an empty hall. Pour one out for Murotan and Kobushi Factory, y'all.

I imagine when Inoue Rei finally graduates she’s going to go out with a bang and give a nod to Kobushi. Well, I hope she does anyway. She seems the sentimental type considering she liked to perform songs from her TNX days.

If "Kobushi no Hana" isn't her grad solo, I'll be disappointed.

ONE PLUS ONE: Akari Endo × Yuka Miyazaki - "Hadaka no Hadaka no Hadaka no KISS"



It's always great to see Yuka in stuff like this. Like Rena from the last ONE PLUS ONE, dancing is Akari's current strength. I don't think she's as good as Rena yet, but she's not bad. I watched the J=J/Biyo Two Of Us set last night, and that stood out to me there, too. The other thing that stood out to me is how far the Ichika/Risa/Kisaki group has come since joining in 2021. All of them are getting important lines and handling them way better than I thought they would by this point. I don't know what the hell got into Ichika, but she's turning into a monster.

Based on that show and a few clips from other sets I've seen, it looks like the company is going out of their way to push Yume, Ichika and Kisaki into more forward roles at the expense of... Riai. I was a few songs in when I wondered if Riai was sick or something, because she was basically invisible. It wasn't until the last quarter or so of the show that she was used a lot more. It could just be her not feeling well, though, because she was off a bit when she did get to sing.

I do hope they're just trying to save her from exhaustion and/or take the chance to promote the others more. Especially Ichika and Kisaki were pretty invisible in their first year(s) so I take everything. But they've seen what overdoing did to Sayuki (around the time of their world tour she was pretty much done) and currently Ruru (who is just very slowly getting back to her old power).

Whoever made this. I love you. There are some MVs in here I’ve never seen and it seems to be in chronological order too.

There are a few MVs missing but overall an impressive list.

Yeah, keeping up with it is sometimes hard since YouTube doesn't really tell you when uploaders take videos off or anything like that lol!

This song is so underrated, it's sad that we don't get more performances of this albums songs!
This cover is good :P but I'm biased.

That song is amazing. My favourite is still the Miyo version from the 2nd Solo Fes.

Omizu sounds really great on this. It's too bad that Mao wasn't able to get in on this, because I think it's right up her ally.
