We got a taste of the new Juice=Juice 7-nin lineup on Youtube today, and they’re not coddling the n00bs. Performing their upcoming digital release “fiesta! fiesta!” at the Hello! Gathering Summer Tour, the first solo line goes to new member Danbara Ruru, and she sounds great. Neither she nor Yanagawa Nanami look at all out of place, and honestly, they...
Buried in the deep recesses of an old hard drive is this remarkable fan remix of Morning Musume’s “Roman ~MY DEAR BOY~”, which is really a three-way mash-up of MM, Namie Amuro (“Strobe”) and HALCALI (“Tandem”). It’s a stunning work that represents, in my opinion, the absolute peak of the fertile Morning Musume remix scene of the mid-00s. I never liked...
You really have to hear this, because it’s seriously great. https://twitter.com/selder16/status/889104766462173184 I went off on a mini Tweet-storm about how this made me nostalgic for the early-to-mid 00s heyday of the Morning Musume remix scene. If you don’t remember it, it was pretty big on the internet, to the point where at its height it seemd like a new remix...
Sorry for the lull in posting new content. I’m in the process of moving out-of-state, and it’s taking up most of my time. As a gift, here’s a video of perhaps the most fantastically ridiculous Morning Musume performance ever: Miki Fujimoto and Hitomi Yoshizawa doing “Rainbow Pink”: Yossie’s abject failure to pull of the moe affectation is the punch line,...
It dropped this morning, and it’s very… white. The one “white theme” song/PV that is seemingly required on every H!P release has become predictable to the point where fans have been openly mocking it for over a year now. I’ve seen some call it “lazy”, and I can’t disagree. It doesn’t even really fit this song, IMO Anyway, here’s the...
The second video from Tsubaki Factory’s soon-to-be-released single has dropped, and this was the one I was waiting for. Back when short radio rips of “Shuukatsu Sensation” and “Waratte” leaked a couple weeks back I was giddy with anticipation, mostly for “Waratte”. My initial take was that this was a 70s funk jam that should’ve gone to DANCE☆MAN, but I was...
…that Juice=Juice performed “Romance no Tochuu” with a live band on Full Chorus? Youtube ‘members: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2lCk46ekC0 The moral of this story? J=J is phenomenal when given good music. I’m pretty excited for 7-nin J=J and the debut of Danbara Ruru.
With the Hello! Project in a state of transformation and turmoil, who do H!P wota turn to for a sense of calm amid the rising tide of change and anxiety? Why, Tsubaki Factory, of course? Duh. The first video from TF’s second major single dropped a couple of days ago, and it’s enough to get you to calm your tits...

Right now, ANGERME is entertaining us as a group that embodies an aura of uniqueness, even among Hello!Pro acts. One reason for that may be the overwhelming personalities of each of the members. Maybe we could feel that intensity, as this magazine has conducted several...

Well! Fukumura is graduating, but only at the END of this year - LOL!
Fukumura and her cahoots are doing everything they possibly can to prolong their idoling careers. There's a certain amount of…
