Kobushi Factory performed their new song "Start Line" at the H!P Winter 2020 concert in Osaka today.

It is a Kobushi-like energetic and emotional song that everyone can sing along with Kobushi. The fans already did call chants. Hirose Ayaka said in an MC that she was impressed by the incredible calls for the song since it was the first time they performed it.
