The H!P Musings/Rants Thread

[Tobo_Junny135]

I’m curious about something. This has been running in my head all day (it’s almost 2am here).
Tomo is graduating in about two weeks (and 3 days) and Maa roughly two weeks afterwards right?

And Tomo is featured in the new J=J triple A single right? Theoretically wouldn’t that mean we should be getting J=J MVs first before the rest of MM°21’s MVs?

Writers of Soranews are big idol fans, specifically Juice=Juice Inaba Manaka and BEYOOOOONDS Shimakura Rika.

Today we ordered the Lapis Birth Stone Cake (700 yen/US$6.16) and the Lapis Birth Stone Cider (500 yen). We brought along standees of Manaka Inaba, our favorite idol from the group Juice=Juice, and Rika Shimakura from BEYOOOOONDS, so we used their member colors– hot pink for Manakan and lavender for Rika–to top our cider and our cake.

It's definitely all kinds of weird.

Maybe not since Tomo's single doesn't release until after Masaki's?

It's also odd that all of the titles haven't been announced yet. At this point I hope it's an unveiling at the grad concert because there's something uber ~special~ or sentimental about it as opposed to everything just being a poorly planned rush job because the graduation was unexpected.

(And yes, no matter what its a rush job but there are ways to creatively excuse what would otherwise come off as poor planning.)

I'm also surprised that despite the time length, ANGERME isn't gonna have one more single with Momona.

I'm not surprised about the lack of a "graduation" single for Kassa, seeing as her grad was announced just 2 days before their latest single came out.

^However Maa and Tomo also announced their graduation and H!P is working on 2 months in getting their grad single out? Kassa announced her graduation months ago previously, they would’ve had time to do something at least for her.

Kasahara Momona's new photobook is more important to her and more meaningful.

I think the MM and Juice singles were proably already planned/in the works (looking at Erina's short, non-pink hair in some of the photos), and they just adjusted them to fit the graduations the same way they have with the concerts.

Hello Pro and ANGERME fans Aoi Yu and Kikuchi Akiko were on a popular TOKYO FM radio show, having a relaxing chat on making ANGERME Kasahara Momona's graduation photobook "Dear Sister"
