i'm so annoyed lol

i feel like a lot briizes don't want to advocate for seunghan. every day someone is arguing against boycotting their next comeback because it'll "hurt the other guys." well don't you think it hurts them that their friend is hiding in some fucking basement? unemployed? I highly doubt any of those guys know what the hell their next move is regarding seunghan

how the hell are we suppose to make our voices heard if sending emails, reporting to kwangya 119, sending trucks, sending messages on weverse, etc isn't helping?! these types of situations aren't suppose to be easy or peaceful. for god's sake we're literally fighting for someone to be treated fairly and allowed to work with his FRIENDS again. this shit was not sweet from the get-go so what the hell makes you think it's going to be sweet now?!

i'm sure the other members would be happy to know that there are people out there that love their friend so much that they would go these lengths. I am positive they want to see seunghan back. I know they want to promote as 7 and would be glad to piss off a couple of assholes in SM if it meant getting their brother back.

does seunghan's situation mean nothing to you people? this poor guy smoked a damn cig and has an EX girlfriend...why the fuck is he on an indefinite hiatus? honestly you guys disgust me. you don't care about him at all and you don't care that you're allowing SM to set this precedent. just spineless as hell.

Hello! Project 2024 Summer ALL OF US 

My first H!P concert since before COVID! I was generally so irrationally nervous on the way there: what if I'm going to the wrong place? What if there's a problem with my ticket? What if my seat has a shit view?

The moment Morning Musume came out and the music started I started crying. They're all so beautiful! There's literally no member who isn't an absolute superstar. Haga has grown so much since I went into fandom hibernation, I'm so happy for her. Rio and Miki were shining as always. I know a lot of people don't like it but SaikiYOU is an amazing song. The intensity is so much fun. I'm not crazy about the rap part but the chorus is so good. Nandaka Sentimental na Toki no Uta I don't like quite as much but it's quite different from a lot of other MM songs (very theatrical and dramatic).

As for the other groups, I've followed them even less closely than MM so I don't really know any of the recent additions (recent= ANGERME=anyone after Layla, Juice=anyone after Ruru lol, Tsubaki= anyone who joined after Risa left, Beyo= I still know all the members, yay!, Ocha=don't really know the group at all, but remember a lot of them as KSS, Rosy= same as above)

ANGERME: probably caught my attention the least, but they weren't bad. My eyes were almost always on Ayano, I'm so sad she's leaving. When she joined KSS I talked a lot about how I wanted her a Takase to be a duo unit like W. I guess it will never happen now... I was also drawn to this really cute, tiny girl who I later learnt to be Wakana. I suppose she'll be my new favourite after Moe and Layla are gone.

Juice=Juice: Couldn't take my eyes off Ruru, she's stunning. I hope she sticks around for a long time and gets a solo career when she's done. After her, I don't really care for any of the other members, but did occasionally notice my eyes drifting over to Riai. I also loved Ichika when she was a KSS but I didn't notice her so much this time.

Tsubaki Factory: I was surprised by how much I liked their new songs, No member really grabbed my eye but I thought their performance was really good and they're group image made them stand out from the other groups quite nicely. Back in the day, they were already my least favourite group but I have to admit they put on a good show.

Beyooooonds: amazing, incredible. Takase has my heart but it's impossible not to love every member. Particularly, I like that Momohime, Utano, and Saya have dyed their hair. They all look great but Saya especially wowed me. Due to an injury, Miyo didn't participate in the dancing, just sitting perched on the stage like a sexy lounge singer. She still sang beautifully and it was funny watching the other girls break formation to go interact with her.

Ocha Norma: The only members I can identify on sight are Madoka, Kanami, and Kirara, but they performed really well. They performed their upcoming single, and I really liked it. Back in the olde days, I thought Kirara was a little overrated but she's completely won me over, definitely ace material. Happy birthday to Natsume!

Rosy Chronicle: Ahhhh! so cute. Their original song is the most idol-like music H!P has made in a while. So catchy and fun! Vocally definitely still a little rough but everyone was pleasant to listen to. Of the members, I remember baby Yulia and am so happy to see her debut. Hasumi, I remember not liking to much (I'm ashamed to admit, I didn't find her cute), but seeing her live really won me over. She's very charismatic. The rest of the girls I can't recognise yet...

100-yokai is one of the most unique girl groups ive found recently hence why they are the first group ive posted since my hiatus. alot of information on the group is difficult to find with my mediocre japanese and lots of official websites for small groups being taken down as of late and struggleing to find archives but the girls have an 'monster concept' with the girls having a monster girl they represent.

They were active from 2020-2024 with their debut on august of 2020, and disbanded after two members said they were disinterested in continueing idol activites and the rest not wanting to start over again.

their sound is really unique combining some sounds of traditional japanese music and fast paced idol pop music, a very fitting combination of an idol group that combines traditional japanese folklore and the popular concept of japanese idol groups.

100-yokai music video 妖��KAIKAIご紹介! was posted on Dec 16, 2021 with an astounding 18k views! their were 48 100-yokai videos posted but none of them managed to beat their initial success, with most videos gaining a few hundred views and the more popular ones gaining 1.5k on average.

Former members of 100-yokai have joined other idol groups or have moved onto other entertainment venues like streaming.
