I think they eventually will but yeah I'm a little bummed about it too.
I guess I can see where they're going with it... giving an MV's first look inside a 40mintues show full of other h!P members is a clever bit of cross promotions but it's kinda a shame that the view counts for the standalone MV got eaten up a by HaroSute. It's not the end all be all but those page view counts do generate a little bit of useful hype/buzz imo

They'll probably upload it a week after or something but its redundant trying to force the same viewers to change to a different channel. They're just appealing to the online community, when they should be promoting it more at concerts and what not.

The Ai no Gundan dance shot HS episode has now just a little less than 500k views on the HelloSute channel.

Uh, but they are performing it at the concerts, I don't know what else they could do to promote it more on that department.
... or am I missing something here ?

[Denki]

Tonight? This means I can't go to sleep yet.

idk. like "Please subscribe, and watch Hello Station as we'll upload the MVs this week" type of thing? :s

Ask people going to their concerts to watch the videos on their Youtube channels? Seems rather pointless.

Besides the fact that everyone there already does, it makes much more sense the other way around.
"If you like this video, please come and enjoy our concert."

A single new concert goer is worth much more to them than a thousand random Youtube hits.

it should be both. like qr codes on fliers are a good way they do this.

They already have those on every H!P CD, DVD and basically every kind of goods they feasibly can put them on.
It links to the H!P member blogs, Youtube channels and the official site.

ye, i meant that. as well as the single websites that are the online promotion stuff in a nutshell.

I'm surprised the episode still hasnt come out....though I'm loving that we're getting three PVs out of it
