No, that would be a bad time to announce winners precisely because all the press coverage will be about Kago’s appearance.

Ah well, let's hope it's all been sent by fast courier, the girls are reading the letters right now and we'll see them announced tomorrow.
If not, well... We've waited this long, we can wait (just) a bit more.

There's also the joint event on the 20th (if I'm not mistaken), so maybe then?

Is there anything saying that there won't be a fourth round?

yeah, the media will probably be there for one show for Kago and Goto Maki on Saturday.

mail shouldn't take that long to receive.

Insert the mysterious 4th round. "Congratulations, you made it into Hello!Project now let's see where we put you!"

Morning Musume auditions, as far as I know, were the only one to have 4 rounds. Traditionally the H!P ones were only 3 rounds.

I'm excited to see if we get any older girls, since the age limit was extended.

True enough. I suppose I considered that momentarily but the "two birds with one stone" side of my mind ended up winning over logic in the end.

I haven't seen anything that specifically says there won't be, but both the 1st and 2nd round completion tweets/announcements directly mentioned the round to follow, whereas the latest announcement just says letters have been sent to those who passed.

I think the 2nd gen S/mileage audition had a fourth round too, but that's the only one I can think of. (Unless you count the very-different-circumstances of the Taiwan audition and what felt like 10 rounds plus a secret training camp. :lol:)

Interesting little detail. On the HELLO! DRIVE! radio shows that get uploaded to the UP-FRONT channel, Ichioka Reina used to introduce herself as 'from the H!P Trainees'.
This is the first time's she's introduced herself as 'new group leader'.
