[Mukuro]

Finally! If any group needs an album (besides angerme) it's them.

[DonJuan]

Nice! They do have a bunch of unreleased songs, and if they add FF and the two most recent singles it's a good album.

[Madara]

I'm desperate for new albums from ANY H!P group, so I'd totally welcome this, esp. since it will presumably have Ruru and Nanami on it. (It will, won't it?)

[DonJuan]

Most certainly. I'm sure it will have at least their latest single and they performed a bunch of (yet) unreleased songs with them during concerts. 

[JPope]

Can't wait. Hope there are at least few new tracks.

[DonJuan]

So Manaka is on the covers. I guess there will be at least one song with her and it depends on when they did the studio recordings of all those previously unreleased songs.


No real suprises, Juice was the group with the most unreleased songs after all.

[Zange]

Earlier I was wondering how well Inaba would suit the group. After seeing these covers, I can say she visually suits the group.
 
Fiesta! Fiesta! doesn't even get a full MV release on the BluRays and that disappoints me... Unless they plan on doing something ~special~ with it...
 
(Also those galaxy print outfits are the coolest and you will never change my mind on that)

[Farrah]

Galaxy print can be cute but it's so dated to me LOL but, "dated" is pretty much synonymous with "Japanese idol" so it's whatever.
 
Fiesta! Fiesta! deserved better and I will stay mad about it until my grave.  Should've been a single, Jidanda Dance can rot.

[Anderei]

The print is nowhere near as dated looking as those boots.

[DonJuan]

But honestly aren't these just the Sexy Sexy outfits with galaxy print?
 

[Elpis]

They got to save some money somehow! Galaxy print does look cool though even if it is technically dated.

[honey]

I like it but I think it’s a weird choice for Juice=Juice, I don’t really feel like it suits their image or music at all lol. Their image is always upbeat but this feels like more subdued and serious. Maybe it’s foreshadowing a change in direction for their future with the members getting older and some graduations probably coming up soon, OR it could just be a poor stylistic choice and I’m giving H!P way too much credit LOL

Seems like Manakan will only be in the 3 new tracks, the rest will be 5-nin or 7-nin

[DonJuan]

That's ok imo. They haven't released much as 7-nin yet, so giving Ruru and Nanami a bit of spotlight is totally fine.

[Anderei]

Those three with her will definitely probably get performed live the most, though.

[Solarblade]

Radio Preview for "Kindan Shoujo"

[momoirosaya]

Ooh I like it! It’s such an upbeat song, the title “Forbidden Girl” makes it seem like it would be a cool and sexy song.

[Shoujo Q]

Radio preview of Synchro, Includes Manaka.

[TicTacAnyone]

I definitely will be buying this album--has songs I already knew I loved on it, and the new songs sound great too :)

[Solarblade]

2nd Disc has their lineups announced
 
5-nin: Otona no Jijou
7-nin: Never Never Surrender, Jouro, TOKYO Glider, Abaratekka?!, Goal, Gin'iro no Telepathy, Kono Sekai wa, Wonderful World
8-nin: Synchro., Sunao ni Amaete, Kindan Shoujo

[TheParuProject]

So it's out.


I'm happy, I think the new songs are good and I'm happy to have studio versions of the songs they've been performing for a while.


I just don't like Abaretekka. I never did. It's melodically strange and the instrumental sounds really cheap. X_X

[Shoujo Q]

Live of Sunao ni Amaete
 
The opening is basically a call back to Romance no Tochuu.
 
As for a live song, it's... a work in progress.... 


I think, they'll eventually be able to sing this song well, but they haven't really got it down yet for lives. The album version is much better, but that's to be expected. ;D

[DonJuan]

Yeah, it wasn't smooth yet, but I'm sure they'll nail it once they've performed it for a whole tour. 
It's got potential.

[TicTacAnyone]

I haven't heard the album version yet so I totally loved the live. I'm excited to hear the recorded ver. if it's even better!! Ju=Ju continues to be amazing... and Manaba fit in really, really well--her dancing fits better with Ju=Ju's choreo anyway. And Nanami's solo line at the end of the first chorus was so good!
 
And Danbara is fast turning into a master of the "sexy" moves... Oh little Ruru don't grow up yet Q_Q but she makes the stage so interesting with her choreo!

[honey]

dang I really like the majority of the new songs on this album. Manaka also fits surprisingly well, I think she was a good choice for this group

[Madara]

When did Manaka join Juice=Juice? That's news to me. And would she already be on the album?
