Kawashima Mifu told the media that she wants to perform at the Tokyo Dome.

Kawashima Mifu (16), who returned to the stage in April after a hiatus last October due to sudden hearing loss, also made an appearance at the event. When asked about her impression of the members, Kawashima said, "Everyone is so kind, but their performances are really cool. I definitely want to surpass them all and become the best artist in the world someday."

As for her dream, she said, "My dream is to stand on a big stage with a smile on my face." When asked by the MC for a specific location, she answered, "Tokyo Dome." Uemura, the leader of the group, said, "It's good to speak up and say what you mean," and she felt that the younger members had grown up.

Uemura discusses the "succession of leaders" in music videos: "You never know what will happen in Juice=Juice."

Uemura, referring to the "succession of leader" theory in the music video, says that the music video "Oaiko" was shot last, and Uemura says, "We had a free atmosphere, and we were able to improvise almost exclusively. At the end, I received a bouquet of flowers that was bigger than anything I had ever seen before.
The scene in which Uemura faces Dambara Ruru and hands her flowers, has been rumored on social networking sites to be a scene in which the leader succeeds the role of leader.
When asked if the next leader had been decided, Dambara replied, "No, I haven't heard anything yet. Uemura added, "Maybe the youngest member. You never know what will happen in Juice=Juice."

Promotion on TV

MUSIC ON TV will have an Uemura Akari special program to commemorate her graduation and the last single, airing May 25th, titled "Juice=Juice ~We are Juice=Juice! UEMULOVE~"

Since their formation in 2013, Hello! Project idol group Juice=Juice has gained popularity for their high singing and performance abilities. Their 18th single "Tokyo Blur/Naimono Love/Oaiko" will be released on May 15th, the last single featuring leader Uemura Akari, who will graduate from Juice=Juice and Hello Project after their nationwide tour "Juice=Juice Concert Tour 2024 1=LINE."

MUSIC ON TV will air an original special program to commemorate the release and Uemura's graduation!

All the members including Kawashima Mifu, who resumed her activities from the Harmony Hall Zama concert held on April 20th, participated in the program and delved deeper into the appeal of the songs in the album! In the "Tokyo Blur" segment, the members from Tokyo were the MCs, in which they delved into the charms of the songs in the program, and in the "Naimono Love" segment, the members presented their "enviable points" that made them "Naimono Love the members unintentionally!" In the "Oaiko" segment, they will compete in a "Oaiko rock-paper-scissors" battle for PR time, and much more. In addition, a takoyaki party was held where all the members entertained Uemura. Two teams, YumeRiai and 3flower, represented the members in a heated battle! The final message from Uemura to each of the members was a must-see! Don't miss it!
