Kanon Fukuda always seemed to me... off putting. Her attitude... I don't know. Still, I hope Ayaka doesn't leave anytime soon.

I keep enjoying Seishun Kozou Ga Naiteiru, but yes, a new single this soon would be glorious!

Is it just me? Or since TIKI BUN, lines are more evenly given? I don't see the oversaturation of Riho, and even Erina got a small solo line in the newest single. And in all these songs, I feel like Ayumi, Mizuki (uh!) and Masaki are being pushed. I also hope for Zukki to be more spotlighted. Maybe even lead a song!!!!! jajajajaja I am going crazy I know :P

OMG C-ute will make it to MUSIC STATION next week!!

:eek

So Country Girls member, Shimomura Uta has left the group and company

The end for Country Girls, at least for me she was the only strong member

I thought Country Girls debut single was too sugary and baby-like. Plus, to add insult to injury, there's Momoko... If like Visionfactory says, if this is the end for Country Girls, I won't miss them.

Dream Morning Musume will make a comeback (TV live) this month!

This is the first time performing with Takahashi Ai, Niigaki Risa and Konno Asami

Also it's the first time in 3 years performing with Yaguchi Mari (after her scandal)

It seems that Ogawa Makoto and Koharu Kusumi are out

Today, Ayaka Wada announced that there'll be auditions for ANGERME from 7/2 to 8/16


Also there were auditions in Hokkaido earlier as well

Add on Miyabi announced auditions as well (but this seems more like UFP and not H!P)

Wow, if the S/mileage girls felt like shit after the annoucement of new members, this will destroy them :( It's something that ANGERsME

They wanna turn ANGERME into another MM'15 trash

Anyone knows where i can download all of "THE Possible (Ciao Bella Cinquetti)" albums?....

Riho Sayashi announced that she'll be graduating from MM'15 (but remaining a H!P member) on 12/31

Yeah, I saw that as well. It's weird though, isn't that too soon?

a couple days short of 5 years with the group, maybe a little, but Koharu and Maki had nearly the same amount of time, I think...

and what was their reasoning that time?

Hmmm, Maki to focus on her solo stuff and Koharu to go into fashion

℃-ute's latest single got #2 behind Nogizaka46

Above Perfume?!??

Okay, this is news. I never heard anything from them since... 2011 maybe.

So Country Girls at the one year anniversary live announced two new members joining

-Funaki Musubu
-Yanagawa Nanami

both are Kenshuusei

Riho leaving... I used to be a huge fan of hers, until she dominated all solo lines. But given the last few singles where she wasn't so heavily pushed, I started to like her again. So sad that she goes too soon. Now, there's a huge amount of lines that need to be distributed, and I hope Zukki gets a ton! (wishful thinking!)

So ANGERME announced that one person won the audition, Moe Kamikokuryou. and will join the group.
