I am counting, with all the singles, b-sides and unreleased songs, a total of 16, plus 5 new makes it 21... Which 2 am I missing?

all three singles have 4 songs (be it a-sides or b-sides) and they have 4 unreleased songs - i guess if we count the Hello Kitty colaboration that makes it 17 total,
still missing one, can anyone help me?

I wouldn’t mind an Ocha Norma version of Mistake. I mean, they performed it so much as the HPK unit that it felt like an Ocha Norma song before they were even a thing.

But I doubt they would appease me.

Well if the unreleased songs count as new tracks....

It'd look like

4 songs from Single 1
4 songs from Single 2
4 songs from single 3

4 unreleaseed tracks

Meaning the count is weird, since we'd have one more new song we haven't heard...and yet 5 songs left over? Meaning two might be Mistake and the HELLO KITTY collab (but their version). Still leaves us with 3 songs we've known?

I don't think the unreleased songs will count as the new ones - new ones most likely refer to songs the group has yet to perform, one may even be the promotion song that gets an MV or so


But if we do count Mistake and the Hello Kitty song then that adds up, 18 songs we know of and 5 yet to be heard


We'll just have to wait and see (if Mistake is indeed re-released in the album I hope its a 10-nin version will all the members)

^ Roko's voice is really high pitched here compared with her usual speaking voice (as in this week's Haro! Sute).

I believe the unreleased songs are the new songs and the second CD disc will be a cover album like J=J, Kobushi and Tsubaki did with their first albums because the 12 released + 5 new = 17 songs, which it's a good amount for a disc already, and the remaining 6 songs would be the covers.
