H!P Trivia thread!

[Sohee]

Sayumi: Michishigekei monogatari [Michishige family's tale]
Reina: Reina no honne!!! [Reina's real feelings!!!] (Reina's feelings, things I want to point out, things I can't say on TV; I'l make lyrics out of all of it!!)
Mizuki: MIZUKINGDOM he youkoso! [Welcome to MIZUKINGOM!]
Erina: Heroine wa anata dake [You're the only heroine] (It seems possible lol)
Riho: Tsunku♂san kara irai wo ukemashita, Sayashi Riho deshu. [I received this request from Tsunku, I'm Sayashi Riho.]
Kanon: Green LOVE☆
Haruna: Sora ni tobu jouken [The conditions for flying in the sky] (Kuujou Joutaro's name Kuujou would be in the lyrics, too.)
Ayumi: Morning Coffee. (I'd return to our basics, though with the . there, one would feel that we've evolved.)
Masaki: Minna atsumare pure power (Everyone, come together, pure power)
Haruka: Saikyou! Onna densetsu (The strongest! Female legends)

Reina's would make for an interesting solo song experiment. Mizuki's sounds like the intro to a children's TV show.

Erina's, Haruna's, Masaki's, and Haruka's all seem like they could be real Morning Musume songs.

^ And Kanon's tbh, although not necessarily *about* Kanon.

[Nayoko-Kihara]

It'd be a perfect fit for the SATOYAMA thing they have going.

^ Exactamundo.

They all sound like early sunday morning Pretty Cure-ish anime songs to me

Wotas are saying this is Sakura's father Oda Akira (小田哲).

http://www.townnews.co.jp/0403/2008/04/18/25996.html
He's running for Mayor of Zama in Kanagawa Pref. He lost the previous 2 times he ran.

A photo from his high school days.


For comparison the only non-smiling image of Sakura I could find.

More info on Sakura's family. Her parents are divorced. Her dad married a woman named Hiromi and have one son together (Taishi).
Her mother's name is Oda Tomoko (小田智子)? There are about 10 different ways to pronounce 智子 so I'm guessing on the name.
She lives with her mother, older brother (Daichi), younger sister and 5 cats.
Daichi in 2004. He's in high school now.

i'd been meaning to point out that UF reuses the same bikini design on Sayu and Airi in their groups recent Alo-Hello photobook/DVDs, but then when i collected photo evidence i realized they're not totally identical, just really really really similar. maybe by the same designer? or just rip offs of a popular style, perhaps.

their tops have different shapes with Sayu's being more triangular while Airi's is more round. Airi's has a tie in the middle (Sayu's doesn't), Sayu's halter has a beaded design (Airi's doesn't).





also i'm also pretty sure i've seen one of these (or a similar bikini) used somewhere in H!P before, but i can't think of it right now. perhaps i'll remember later, or someone will beat me to it.

probably nobody else finds this info interesting, but i find looking for re-used outfits/accessories as entertaining as playing Where's Waldo.

Clothing companies often do this, making several colorways in different styles.

A super-quick example~~>

Apparently Nacchi's current oshi-men is Zukki.

Apparently part of it is because Zukki is supper my-pace and and when DMM. and MM. collaborated for an FNS performance, backstage Zukki was like "Excuse me Nakazawa-san, I need to get through so can you please move?"

Lololololol.
