Hi
I am from NSW (New South Wales) which i think is located in the eastern part of Australia

[Yattaruchan]

Nice.

I'm from VIC, hence why I was asking. I forget that I don't put Australia in my side profile here.

How long have you been a fan of Hello! Project? How did you find out about them?
I've been a fan since Love Machine (1999)—my brother had just gotten into Japanese music not long before that, and I think our local Japanese video rental store rented/sold copies of ASAYAN, and I think that was just about the time we started watching it. We didn't understand it as well as we do now, but it was still fun. I had gotten back into Morning Musume when internet started becoming a more widespread thing in 2003-2004 to about 2011, then picked back up in 2016.

Your other favorite singers, artists and songs? Hamasaki Ayumi, Amuro Namie, Utada Hikaru; I'm partial to enka and kayoukyoku, too.

Anything else you would like to say? Any reason for coming here? I was once active on a Hamasaki Ayumi forum which also had a thread for H!P, but that thread's been pretty dead despite my attempt to revive it. Thought it'd be better to go to a dedicated forum, and also saw some translations on Twitter from here.

How long have you been a fan of Hello! Project? How did you find out about them?: I've been a fan for 11 years now. At the time I was really into anime and being maybe 11 years old I searched something along the lines of "cute J-pop song" then stumbled across a video of C-ute's "Ookina Ai De Motenashite". Which just led to me becoming a hardcore Berryz Kobo fan

Do you dream of going to Japan?: Yes! At first I wasn't that interested in going, however the more my oshimen graduated, the more I got to realize how fun it'd be for me to see them perform in person, or even attend a signing event. I feel like being able to see them with my own eyes would make me feel like a treasured them more before they left. So while it's not about Japan itself, it's more about what's there.

Your other favorite singers, artists and songs?: Currently I'm really into NCT (add WayV). My all time favorite band is Shinsei Kamattechan.

Aoba Ichiko, Mizutama Shobodan, and a lot of Kiyohiko Senba's units. For Western artists I love Frank Ocean and Yves Tumor

Anything else you would like to say? Any reason for coming here?: My reason for being here is that once in a blue moon I like putting in my 2 cents about idols
