ONE PLUS ONE : Kenshuusei Murakoshi Ayana x ANGERME Kamikokuryo Moe "Uraha=Lover" full version

[Nayoko-Kihara]

Really happy it's Ayana's turn for ONE PLUS ONE this week, I've been waiting. Generally glad they let a Kenshuusei go this time too, instead of another OCHA member.

Next week's episode description of Hello! Dream on Valentine's Day says that brand new Kenshuusei will be meeting everyone for the first time.

I assume through video call at home still...

[Nayoko-Kihara]

Ohh! Maybe we are getting some from the previous audition after all. I was giving up hope.

- Immediately, 5 of the Kenshuusei are ready to meet the new members. They are all dressed up for a photoshoot.



- 2 new Kenshuusei (33rd generation) walk in heels as they enter and the camera reveals their faces. They introduces themselves. Gotou Hana (後藤花) from Saitama, first year junior high. And from Osaka, Maeshima Karin (前島花凛), a 6th grader. Gotou Hana likes playing tennis. Maeshima loves to eat yakiniku. They ask various questions on both sides.







- Maeshima Karin and Onoda Karin point out that they have a different Kanji character spelling for "Karin", but have one have Kanji in common as well.


- The two new Kenshuusei have their first photoshoots. While waiting for their turns, they have a chat together. The current Kenshuusei share some advice of what to expect.









- Both of them are interviewed after their first shoot. They will be both unveiled at the March 2022 Kenshuusei Recital.

- Promotion for Mayonaka ni Hello episode 6.

- OCHA NORMA continue their meeting. This time, they figure what kind solo autograph signature they want to use. They draw on paper and react at each other's ideas.
- One by one, they reveal their signs. Yonemura draws a rabbit. The others critique and help improve it. Kubota has made 3 different patterns. Ishiguri draws an "Ishi" (a rock). Ruli just uses a simple "Ruli" and another with a Ocha leaf. Saito has a simple hiragana sign.
- Here is what Yonemura, Kubota, Ishiguri, Ruli, and Saito came up with so far :


- The dream collab this week is Kenshuusei Matsubara Yulia x Tsubaki Factory Asakura Kiki. They perform "Shunrenka"

ONE PLUS ONE Matsubara Yulia x Asakura Kiki "Shunrenka"

[Amped]

They really changed Matsubara's singing voice for this song.

[Nayoko-Kihara]

The two new girls are adorable. Maeshima is another one for the group of girls with slight lisps.

I haven't watched Yulia's ONE PLUS ONE yet, but she was already sounding much improved at the last recital so I expect good things. The song choice is fitting too, if I remember right she chose "Shunreka" for her first(?) Shindan Test performance.

- Kenshuusei A Team "Yonshoku Dango" and B Team "HaSaHiKa" begin dance practice of the song "Ijiwaru Shinai de Dakishimete yo", with videos recorded at home. A practice selfie video montage is shown for both teams. Each member is interviewed after practicing. This is the first time Yoshida and Kawashima made a practice video.

- Hello Dream promotes Tsubaki Factory's new Budokan concert Blu-ray release.

CM

- Promotion for Mayonaka ni Hello episode 7

- The 2nd half of OCHA NORMA's meeting of figuring out their autograph signatures continue. Tashiro Sumire impressively had a signature that she created in elementary school. Nakayama Natsume loves cats and implemented one in her signature. Nishizaki uses her initials with N and Miku. Miku likes pigs, so she also shows another one with cute pig character. Kitahara Momo has a bunny and her name romanized. Roko also has romanized her name with the "O's" as hearts. Which signatures will they use?

- The Dream Collab starts with behind the scenes of junior and senior member getting ready to shoot their performance. OCHA NORMA Nishizaki Miku and ANGERME Kawamura Ayano are asked about their impressions of each other. Then they walk into a different studio and quickly rehearse the dance. They perform "Aisare Route A or B?" Nishizaki Miku's voice could definitely fit for ANGERME. It's very similar. After the performance, they both compliment each other. They show footage of them talking after recording.


Next week, OCHA NORMA introducing their group at a TV appearance in Nagoya.

ONE PLUS ONE : OCHA NORMA Nishizaki Miku x ANGERME Kawamura Ayano "Aisare Route A or B?" full version


By far, this is one of my favorite collab. Nishizaki Miku is like a younger version of Kawamura Ayano.
