Tsubaki Factory promoting their upcoming tour and announces a new song, "Happy Cracker" (ハッピークラッカー). The lyrics and composition is written by SHOCK EYE

[Anderei]

lmao I know it won’t sound the same to Japanese people but I’m cracking up over that title.

[momoirosaya]

Same. I know they mean party cracker, but I just think of the slang instead hahaha.

Is it really that common? I mean I know of people using "cracker" as a word for white people, but my first thought was the Graham Cracker, and the second a firecracker.

Preview for Hyokkori Hyoutanjima for the contestants involved.

[Purin-chama]

There will be a Fall concert a la Hina Fest this year for the 20th anniversary. Will be interesting to see if they do the mini units and solos as well. MM and Angerme get their own premiums, but the final one will have H!P OG!!! Right now Melon Kinenbi is set to perform for that concert. Dates are 10/20-21. Unsure if they will add more dates. I imagine T&C will be around and MM OG. Maybe we will see some rare treats like Maeda Yuki, Coconuts or Country Musume members? Or more Kago. Do you think we will ever see Heike Michiyo in a H!P concert again? I want to remain optimistic on that front. I haven't heard new info surrounding her in several years now.

[al kusanagi]

I've seen Michiyo pop up a couple of times in pictures with Atsuko Inaba on Twitter, but no idea about her performing.

[DonJuan]

Morning Musume.'18 will perform at Anisong World Matsuri November 17 in New York.

[AquaChan]

I guess I will have a little road trip to New York again 

[Mukuro]

Dangit! Poor timing, my favorite indie group is in my province the same day lol I would've considered going otherwise.

[momoirosaya]

Ugh I need them to come to LA again :/

[al kusanagi]

Ah damn... I was already planning a trip for 2 weeks after that.

[Elpis]

New York is too far for me but it’s cool that they actually are giving the US a shot again.

[al kusanagi]

Unless they are going to have a separate side event, it will most likely just be them performing a few songs as part of a larger concert. I'm going to wait and see if anything else is announced.

[Shoujo Q]

I’m going. I’ve always wanted to see Shoko perform. So this is a nice excuse. Of course I’m also going to Mexico buuut since I’m close to NYC this is still a doable trip for me from Boston.

[TicTacAnyone]

Ehhhhh MM isn't worth it for me, lol

[yuzuriha]

I'm waiting for more info but I'll probably make a day trip out of it.

[Madara]

Hallelujah! 2nd concert in my hometown in four years. Keep 'em coming!

I might have missed it, but I didn't see the recent batch of birthday event teasers put up yet;
 
Kanazawa Tomoko / Danbara Ruru (what a great DVD. That would be worth buying. Ruru is as much of a powerhouse as ever... T&C songs suit her so well, I want her to sing more!)
 
Ikuta Erina
 
Kishimoto Yumeno / Akiyama Mao (again, another great duo DVD. Mao is so funny, she's made for variety.)
 
 
They seem to add a lot more backing vocals to birthday events recently... Sometimes it really drowns out the solo the member is supposed to be having, so I sort of don't like it.

That clip of Ruru doing "Tsumetai Kaze to Kataomoi" has me hyped. I actually have a half finished cover of that song that I started when all we had was radio rips of it, and the possibility of getting a Ruru vocal rip might be the motivation I need to revisit and finish it.
