Ok, MM gets into Disneyland but it's on their own dime and during personal time.
What is the current era going to be called?
>>50171594Chel era
What did they mean by this?
>>50173056China will invade Taiwan.
Imagine if someone like Maki in her prime was in a Hollywood movie. These western dudes getting excited over that fake OL ex idol who was mid. If Japan sent over its real beauties into western media, western women would close the borders.
>>50175269definitely would've gotten harvey'd>that fake OL ex idolwho's that?
>>50175341>who's thatSao. >definitely would've gotten harvey'dFuck. Your right. Nevermind.
What stage is H!P and The Office in?
>>50176569They've been sitting between Budget Cuts and Failure/implosion for the last decade. Although, the "competent retire" happened way earlier than that.
>>50179651I think right. In the artistic/creative/entertainment field, the creatives and visionaries are a flighty bunch. Usually the first guys to leave or told to leave and they move on to greener pastures. I was watching some AKB48 documentaries before and I was surpised that both H!P's Nastu the main dance choreographer and costume designer duriing the golden era both jumped ship to AKB48 in the mid to late 2000s. RIP Nastu. H!P is held afloat purely on wota stubbornness. They are like the Cleveland Brown fans of idol groups at this point.>maachan tangent I think i liked her more without bangs.
>>50180523>j.s. bachchannot so genki. photobook don't want.
https://helloproject.com/news/19611/Yeah she's not coming back. But it sounds like she'll have solo events to see her fans and will have a graduation event (?) solo (?) at the end of the year.

is the korean mikitty discourse an open secret?
>>50197129Should be. She looks Korean a bit. She was visibly upset when they told her that on that one TV show.
How many posters are even in this thread. H!P Fandom feels like a ghost town now.
>>50198563well i'm one, so that makes one. there's one itt
>>50198563there's an active hello!project discord but i imagine is not everyone's cup of tea, specially on 4chanBut yeah, it's pretty dead
>>50198783This thread was quite active in the late 2000s. They had "the kids threads", aka berryz and hello kids in a separate thread from the main Morning Musume the thread.

Prime Makoto should be an animal in bed
To Be Continued! is a good song. Garage rock Masaki. The songs she wrote are fine and her voice is pretty, but I can't help but wonder if those songs were her school assignment. She just threw them in the album and made money off of school assignments?
thumbnail is all i could find of this cover option.

How come no one ever told me Rika could be sexy outside of her photobooks?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2jZ86yITy4&list=RDZ2jZ86yITy4&start_radio=1&pp=ygUSUmlrYSBpc2hpa2F3YSBzb2xvoAcB
>>50217381That was a great performance. I laugh at the comments that say, this isn't how an idol should behave! V-u-den even have promo shots dressed in bunny girl costumes.
>>50217467It was. It really made me realize Rika had much more potential than UF knew what to do with her. They sort of wasted her. She looked like she was having fun doing a solo show for once. I realized today that I had never seen Rika sing solo ever and that video popped up. What a waste of an attractive young woman too. I give her props for playing ball with UF so long. She could have did so much more if the right agency knew how to promote her.> laugh at the comments that say, this isn't how an idol should behave! Lol yeah and they give Maki a pass?Its true what they say, Goto Maki has the 'Maki Pass'. Yaguchi cheats, and it nearly destroys her career. Maki cheats and half the women in japan say "I understand her! It was her husbands fault" and maki keeps trucking along even more popular. Kago smokes and is destroys her image and career. Maki smokes WHILE gambling pachinko and everyone thinks shes cool. Asuka makes a nude gravure book and everything thinks shes a low class JAV actress. Maki does a nude photobook and it's the number 1 selling digital photobook ever. Rika acts sexy on stage and everyone calls her "not idol behavior!". Maki humps the stage and everyone calls her a diva idol. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aZNfFatSU7k&list=RDaZNfFatSU7k&start_radio=1&pp=ygUeZ290byBtYWtpIHNvbWUgYm95cyB0b3VjaCBzb2xvoAcB0gcJCQcKAYcqIYzv

>>50227240What did she do to earn that medal?
>>50235444""It’s the Department of Defense Joint Civilian Service Commendation Award (often called the Joint Civilian Service Commendation Medal).How it’s earned:Awarded to DoD civilian employees serving in a joint organization (OSD, Joint Staff, combatant commands, defense agencies) for meritorious service or a significant achievement that materially improves a joint mission—e.g., leading a high-impact project, delivering major cost/time savings, or sustained performance well above duty requirements. A supervisor nominates; approval typically comes from a general/flag officer or Senior Executive in the joint chain. It’s the civilian counterpart to the military Joint Service Commendation Medal.""

>>50241287What's Marine (eyeball)?
I've been gone for 2 years what have I missed
>>50242084Nothing. Tsubaki Factory is still the most talented, but overall H!P is still low in popularity aside from parents taking their kids to Morning Musume concerts.
would you plunder this na'vi's unobtainium?

>>50252808I was just about to post that. Sounds unfinished. Someone tell H!P to use ai already.
>>50252808>>50253781Not too impressed. It does sound unfinished - like they left a bunch of tracks on mute. Also, was Risako in charge of hair?

https://helloproject.com/news/19710/Yokoyama is pulling all the soft quitting games before graduation, just like Maachan did. Funny how they get these diseases and skip work before graduation. Btw, how's Maachan's irritable bowel syndrome doing lately? Seems like she miraculously recovered and can do M-line concerts as well as her own tour now. They're like baseball players.

Eba and Mifu in Juice Juice is too powerful, they might as well have sent Runo there as well and killed the other groups off
>>50214926Wow. There are some strong chins in that lineup.
>>50286739Aaaaaaiiiinnnn
>>50290003cute
I dont get these new gens. They are cute(some of them), but there's no real star power or stage presence. They all have about the same charisma as any random Japanese highschool girls class. That was honestly my first reaction when I tried getting back into H!P after a few years. "Did UF just pick up some random Japanese girls from a highschool or what." Was my first thought.
