The H!P Musings/Rants Thread

That's...fascinating! Never really thought of using one of their musicals to showcase their talents.
Also parenthetically I knew that girl fromOne Pixcel looked awfully familiar but never made the connection til now.

I remember when they debuted. That single was actually really good. I didn’t keep up with them though.

Edit: I was mistaken. It was their first indie single that I really liked. Apparently a lot has happened since then too. One girl left and another girl joined. I should catch up on the stuff they have been putting out

Spoiler: show

If they're holding off on new singles for Musume and BEYOOOOONDS because of the 100k factor, they should consider digital singles and/or mini albums (new content = fans happy = less pressure to perform sales-wise).

EXACTLY like omg it's been nearly a year since their last releases, they're definitely not gonna get 100k now bc they've been gone for so long. i really hope byonz at least gets to release SOMETHING this year besides vitamin me (the musical ost doesn't count imo), even if it's just a digital single with a pv or not. they really don't deserve being stuck in the dungeon

I don't think they'll have a problem getting it again once the normal promo cycle can exist, but definitely agree that something would be nice this year. IF that is what they're doing, I also don't blame them for wanting to safeguard those numbers, especially MM's pattern, but.. new music would be amazing.

After Tsubaki's most recent single, there are now no planned albums / releases in the near future for H!P. When's the last time we had a lull period like this?

Ai-chan was at Budokan and took a picture with Maria- https://www.instagram.com/p/CGQFS6ih0Vy ... 1zif0e3jt5

I for one, did not recognize Maria at all. Initially I actually thought it was Kumai Yurina but then I read Ai-chan's caption.

Ai-chan though, looks relatively the same. I can't tell if it's Maria's face that has been edited, the over exposure/black and white, or just Maria growing older but... ???

My eyes are honestly just confused.

Likely a combination of the three.

A more mature hairstyle, plus using her finger to obscure her asymmetrical jawline. Which is one of her more recognizable features, which she probably has a complex about, which is why she has developed such poses.

He's got a point.
