Hello! Project 15th Anniversary Worldwide events thread

[Denki]

That is, if you exclude almost every Hawaii trip H!P has ever gone.

[zam_ho]

Well Hawaii is an annual event, we can exclude that.

[Celedam]

Those are FC trips that are not open to the public. They really don't count for anything.

In fact, I'd bet that a large number of H!P members don't even know that Hawai'i is part of the United States.

[esm]

Plus, Hawaii is a REALLY popular travel destination for Japanese people, and there is also a heavy concentration of Japanese Americans there.

Or maybe its just Europe's turn to get H!P. Before that it was all US wasn't it.

Berryz went to New Jersey last year. Mano went to LA a year and a half ago? And Berry went to Seattle two years ago. MM went to LA... nearly 4 years ago?
But ALL of the worldwide handshake events, for example, have been in Eurasia. Buono had a concert in France last year. Berryz have visited Thailand and China enough times that it probably doesn't even feel like a trip to them anymore.

MM also went to Paris.


Personally I would not buy a ticket to another country to see Hello! Project unless that country is Japan. Or Norway or something at most maybe. haha.

Them coming to France means nothing to me.

Mano went to LA a year and a half ago?

Mano was in LA in 2010, when she came to promote her movie.

[boinsie]

Was it really that long ago? Time flies!

I'd consider going to another country if that country was Canada.

[Celedam]

Ditto.

[sb]

I'm curious as to difference in crowd sizes for these events? And also if the people going are actually fans, or like with Berryz in Seattle, you had Japanese fans, some American fans, and a bunch of people who had no clue who the hell those 7 Asian girls on stage were.
