The H!P Musings/Rants Thread

[Shoujo Q]

In my on going mission to make as many meaningless google docs as I can, I've been working on this for a while, it's nowhere near done. But as the major group, I wanted to finalize the Morning Musume section first to eventually help me with the other groups. It probably needs a little (a LOT) tweaking. Like, adding the Japanese with the romaji. I'm trying to decide if I want to link to the lyric sites or music videos OR have a separate page dedicated to music videos. Will also be adding little notes for singles that are missing members for various issues (I.E Hiatus)

Discography

Anyway, tell me what you think. Is it understandable as it is?

Nice chart as usual. Only since you asked, here's my 2 cents worth of suggestions:

1) In the color code, you have "Digital" indicated to be cyan in hue (Dark Cyan 1), but in the actual spreadsheet cells the digital singles are light blue (Light Blue 3). I guess those can both be considered shades of blue but to my eyes they look like totally different colors. Maybe in the color code legend, "Digital" could be something like Light Blue 1 to match more closely to the light blue in the cells?

2) Speaking of the color code, I'd suggest "Freeze"-ing up to row 2 so the color code legend remains visible when scrolling.

Anyway, looks good regardless.

See, the colors were mainly for me to keep track of everything but I guess I’ll keep them. I’ll look at the colors later tomorrow to see what you’re talking about.

I like that idea about freezing. I never even thought of that before.

I wonder if they might not be waiting for the auditions to conclude to see if they find members to add to the group.

If they don't think RC now is good enough they're never going to be good enough.

They could debut them now and add a generation later, getting strung along for so long is just disappointing and it's garbo like this long wait just to debut a group that's been ready for as long as they have makes me stop liking H!P like I used to.

I'd wager debut announcement and 1st single performance at Triangrooove2 Special.

I stand corrected.

[BerryzCelebration]

RC is probably debuting officially in Early 2025 (February-April) tbh. Even though the vast majority of the members are tenured Kenshuusei, I'm all for them getting more time and experience performing together before they do their actual debut rollout since they don't really feel cohesive on stage (yet). Besides, I doubt UFP wants them to compete with ME:I for those rookie awards.

[DJChisato1]

It's already past the cutoff for any 2024 rookie awards. Anything now is for 2025.
