Part 2 of OL Eripon exit interview. Nothing controversial, no details. In part 1 she mentions based Maachan getting car/shuttle privileges taken away from both 9th and 10th gen because she left nail clippings in a company car. kek.
She was very hands on with the mighty magic tour merch and t-shirts. She sounds like she relies on Chel. Heard nothing about Oda or new leader. I wonder if they'll pull a 'Rika' where a popular senior doesn't get made into leader, i.e. Oda ain't it.

another friday, another GOO-am teaser that's region locked. Nice to see they still creep into bedrooms and film sleeping idols, although it's staged as always. Mei did her best.
>>49596605Well if it wasn't staged that would be risky, imagine if she wasn't alone, or just masturbating.

>>49600390>naruhodowat?
Also the longest tenure is still Momochi I think.
>>49601199naruhodo means "i see," anon-san. i understood what Moajitsubioro referenced.
momochi probably has the longest tenure but the comment was about eripon being the last one still active. although, she was among the youngest so it's not surprising.

>>49608915Holly molly what a tease, now this is a proper photoshoot for an idol, I mean there's no point being ok with a PB if you refuse to do sexy shots, it just won't sell and it's a waste of money.

She's a kenshu. Won best singing earlier in the spring.
Maybe she wears glasses because one of those stupid jewels fell into her eye and scratched her retina. That shit triggers me, seems dangerous.

I figured covid fucked up the graduation pipeline but i didn't know Fukumura was planning to graduate in 2020. Once Masaki graduated in 2021, i'm guessing Fukumura kept postponing and let everyone else jump out, like Chiichan, Kaede, Ayumi. Kinda doesn't make sense tho.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjcQCbcQsqM
Fukumura live.
Ozeki and Miyo MC. Bitching about the heat. Ozeki brags about hanging out with Chiichan and eating mint chocolate.
2nd part of 200th episode commemoration with favorite performances.
Gacha talk. Beach or mountains? Ozeki has climbed Mt. Fuji! Sugoi
Just found out Sayu retires this year, already know Reina is both married and has a child(?), stopped following mm shortly after their graduations and by that time mm already seemed on the way to irrelevancy and I jumped fence to babymetal for a while.
How is mm holding up today? Did they restored some popularity or got even more irrelevant? What about juice=juice? I remember liking Karin.
>>49668768>Ozeki has climbed Mt. Fuji! SugoiSorry for the crappy quality, japanoids seem to never upload premium shit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2PksmE7gd8
>>49669000trips confirm no one died, no one's frozen corpse is still on the mountain to this day.
>>49668816I don't know how it is in Japan but they seem to be in a general decline, with a few peaks here and there. That's probably the general idol industry, though. I get the feeling that finding new idols with the necessary talent and attitude is getting near impossible. Their recent single is like #2 on Oricon. As long as UFG/H!P is around, MM will be around. Their legacy makes them too big to fail now.
J=J and Angerme seem to be uninteresting right now, I think. J=J got a new member recently who is a good singer but looks kinda plain jane.
Karin is still active in M-line. So is Manaka Inaba. They're both doing really well, I think. Karin released an album not too long ago that's pretty good.
>>49669115Thanks, surprised to hear Karin is doing well, thought she will fade into obscurity.
https://helloproject.com/news/19119/
Interesting. They're making preparations for Kitagawa to return in the fall. Looks like Eripon's wish to graduate with Rio on stage was denied. Unless that was a lie...
>>49669115>I think. J=J got a new member recently who is a good singer but looks kinda plain jane.I think the managers are into bland girls. When Country Girls disbanded they drafted motherfucking Mojito into MM and basically buried Nanami and Musubu who actually had distinctive features and personalities (and were younger). They even assigned her white as her member color lmao.

>this is why Japan has declining birth rates
Ozechii had their fan club Summer Festival Bus Tour this weekend. I think they went to Naeba? idk. Did Ozeki and Chiichan ride in the bus too or did they meet the group later?
>>49680076Somehow the goth style suits them.
What is Chii chan doing these days?
>>49680542She's still performing in m-line shows and is participating in the J.P Room Fan Appreciation concert August 11th. It seems that's about it. No singles announced or photo books, afaik.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUJi4m51UfQ
>>49680710>>49682835I never thought she would become a gravure idol.
Excellent decision.
>>49686095Why is "budokan" written in reverse on the red panel?
It should be ๆญฆ้้คจ...
>>49686350In the past, Japanese was generally written from right to left in horizontal writing.
This was because vertical writing was basically written from right to left, and horizontal writing was an extension of that.
However, under the influence of Western culture, horizontal writing from left to right became widespread, and today, horizontal writing from left to right is the mainstream.
>>49686374Thx. The building is from 1964 though, pretty recent, but it's a nice touch of traditionalism.
Why does Tsuji's daughter have 1 million followers in ig?
Busy girl. Birthday event and then graduation concert. Suzuki was in touch via messages but didn't make an appearance.

I ask ChatGPT a question. Did ChatGPT answer with the right name?
> This is a screenshot from the youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xDGXCVCptg). Can you tell me the name of the girl on the right?
> ChatGPT reply
...... (omitted)
The right girl (short brown hair with bangs) resembles ๆฃฎๆธ็ฅๆฒๅธ (Morito Chisaki) from Morning Musume. Her social posts mention being filmed alone and feeling shyโmatching the thumbnail vibe.
So I believe the girl on the right is ๆฃฎๆธ็ฅๆฒๅธ (Morito Chisaki).
>>49700750>Seems odd that Sayumi released her CD single and there's nothing more than a flash on the screen of that fact.Just good ol UpFront marketing tactis, if something can be sold, keep it hidden. They really only care about MM.
