Juice=Juice Kanazawa Tomoko, Uemura Akari, and Inaba Manaka in a long interview about recording the new single, how they handled things after two core members left, and their thoughts on the new member audition.

--We're currently holding joint auditions with Tsubaki Factory for new members, and this will probably be the first and last single with these seven.
Kanazawa: That's right. Will there be new members in the next one?
Uemura: I'm looking forward to it!
Kanazawa: We don't have any information about the auditions either. We're very nervous and excited about how many people we'll get and how old they'll be.
Inaba: Right now, we're all getting along well and having fun, so we're hoping that good kids will come in. However, if you look at the group objectively, I think it would be more interesting to have kids who have thorns.
Uemura: It would be okay to have some spice to make things look more aggressive. The current Juice=Juice can keep it together.
Kanazawa: The current members are modest and reserved, for better or worse. When we receive gifts, no one takes the last one left. That's why I think it would be good to have a more energetic member.
Uemura: When I look at the BEYOOOOONDS members, there are many girls who have amazing special skills. I'd love to see Juice=Juice with some special skill. I'd like to know if there's someone who wanted to be a member of Yoshimoto Kogyo (agency for comedians) but somehow ended up in Hello Pro LOL.
(laughs) Kanazawa: That would be interesting.
Uemura: I would hire her (LOL).
