The LoVendoЯ Thread - Group Activity Suspension & Miyazawa Marin Contract to End in July 2019

Should we expect a preview of a single soon? Not sure how they can expect to sell tickets to a tour without a single second of a song,

[TotallyUncool]

And it should be a good song, too. None of this AKB-style "we don't need real songs cuz we're just selling idols to wota" stuff.

I don't mind the group name, but omg that logo is SO BAD.

[TotallyUncool]

To me, the logo looks more 80s than 70s -- and for some reason (which probably has more to do with similarity in names and random free-association than actual logic ), it reminds me a bit of Lowrider Magazine's old logo:

[Zunu]

Dunno what's wrong with you guys; it's obviously L'ovendor.

As in:

Madamoiselle, when baking a cake, don't forget to close L'ovendor!!

[TotallyUncool]

Which would explain why they don't have a drummer -- Marina and Reina are just going to bang on an oven door while they sing.

[Muni]

Actually liked the name... Sounds, at least, pretty different and catchy. The logo... I have no idea if I like it or not. Time will tell

Anyway, I'm so anxious to hear them alredy!

i think it would have been better as Love+Ender = LovEnder (and can still be pronounced as "lavender" more easily than love+vendor). it would be much more rockish.

but i don't mind it as-is except that i wish it was romanized either as LovendoЯ or LoVendor. LoVendoЯ is just a tad messy for logos and just writing it out. and not crazy about the logo because i don't like that reflective sunglasses effect, but my expectations for UF's graphics aren't high so i'm not taken by surprise or anything lol.

but nitpicking aside, i'm just glad Reina is graduating into something this awesome.. what we would give for any number of OG's to have gotten something like this.

[Sohee]

I'm quite happy that Reina's the first. 8D
Also... I know this was not what you meant, but man I can so not see any other OG go into a rock band, now that I think of it haha.

If it all goes well, I wonder if maybe they will try to create groups for future graduations as well. :0 Sayumi might not go the singing-route when she graduates, but for 9+10+11ki and all, it would be nice if they could graduate into groups or something that could last for a while, instead of just going the actress-way which most of them seem to do.

[Chatin]

All of 1st gen had a rock band in mind. And then, Sayaka in Cubic Cross, obviously.

Beyond that, I could picture quite a few of the girls in a pop rock band (Makochan, for instance).
