The 1st Mai Hoshimura Thread

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

^ I don't so.
I have no idea what the TV appearances are all about. Maybe Mai felt like performing her songs randomly and some Tv station are showing them. Who knows :/

[rookies]

^ Oh ok, I see.

Anyways, looks like the BEST album peaked at #60, and spent 2 weeks on the Oricon albums chart. Not too sure if it was still on the chart on the third week or not.

And I don't have sales figures, but I am curious how it did in terms of sales.

Mai Hoshimura's contract with her record label has ended. From Tokyograph:

Brilliant Green, Sowelu, Mai Hoshimura leave Ken-on

On Wednesday, rock band the brilliant green and singers Sowelu and Mai Hoshimura all announced their departure from management agency Ken-on. All three have also left their respective record labels.

It appears that all of their contracts with Ken-on and their labels are ending on May 31. the brilliant green, along with Tomoko Kawase's two solo projects (Tommy february6 and Tommy heavenly6), is breaking away from DefSTAR Records. Sowelu is leaving that same label, while Hoshimura is ending her connection to SME Records.

In conjunction with their expiring contracts, the artists are closing their current websites and are preparing new ones.

[Yum!Fruit_Salad!]

Not like they were promoting much anyways. Glad she's still continuing, wouldn't want bad management to discourage her.

[Yoake]

Will she sign a new contract?

[Beauty4123]

yea, are they all gonna re-sign to another label or another sub-label of sony?

[AyUta]

^ Sony? Well...I'm just glad she didn't stop there.

[Yoake]

I hope she'll sign a new contract and release a new single soon!

[AyUta]

^ Me too, I miss new material from her. I remember I got into her when I heard Hikari.

[Yoake]

For me it was Sakura Biyori. IT's her best song for me with hikari and melodea^^

[AyUta]

Hikari single was just awesome. melodea is also one of my favorite songs

I don't remember liking her older material though.

[Yoake]

Did you never hear ending of BLEACH?

[AyUta]

^ What song was that? @_@ Is that Sakura Biyori?

[Yoake]

Nope, never listened to it before. I'm surprised too, because I liked BLEACH. Do you know what season she sang it for?

[Yoake]

It is the #10 ending. I don't know what season it is. Maybe the second or the third?

It's a long time I stopped to watch bleach

[AyUta]

Yeah, I stopped watching BLEACH way before then. I like the song a lot though, it's pretty!

[Yoake]

I'm relieved. I'm not the only one who stopped to watched Bleach. I think it's too long and it's more and more commercial

But I'm gald because I knowed Mai thanks to it!^^
