I was gonna refer to her as "MinaMina" in my post, but I had a feeling some people might not have known XD

Maybe its her calm, cool, collected-ness, and on stage she just literally rocks it out when singing and dancing. I noticed this in the H!S clip of Kobushi Factory's Onna no Sono performance, along with her hosting H!S, that there's this sort of hidden/implied confidence in her calmness when offstage, but totally lets loose on stage. Her closeups in the Onna no Sono performance was really captivating.

*sigh* I think we're all worried about them changing their style to something that isn't as good since we like these songs, but I'll just put faith in UF or whoever manages their music that their discography be amazing. I still think they will go on having this group be versatile for songs, but different from the way Juice=Juice does "fresh" and "variety".

Well, considering all that's happening for H!P right now, I feel like this group is the last thing they wanted to focus on, and to be honest it's not a bad decision. It'd be nice that when they get out to do more things and that they start being more actively shown as the new group that they actually get a good amount of attention. With CG major debuting, 12 gen joining, C-ute 10th anniversary single and J=J's single, having them start off now would be too much, they'd just be competing against all these other groups for attention. We were already all worried about J=J because they seemed like the "shoved" release out of all 4, and so having another thing being "shoved" is the last thing I want for a group who's starting out. And despite all H!P buzz most likely helping each other, it's still different from being focused on solely.

Plus, there technically is info, but mainly the stage play they're associated with, and since that's what this single is based on, that's what they will focus on. Not to mention they also participating in Nama Tamago shows, so they've had their plate, and all those things they're doing is probably helping out with their single. And, they're still indies, so they'll get their time to shine. And heck, this Girls Live video <3 <3 <3 Slow and steady we get things from this group, and even though it'd be awesome to see more of them, I'm fine with this pace.

The single is a venue-only release. You have to go to the play to buy it, so I can see why they wouldn't put it on iTunes just yet.

Looks like they're going all the way with the fist thing.
Sakurako in twintails is adorable.

Article also talks about something called the "theater girl" movement.
Lilium gets a mention as well.

Sakurako 2 > Hamaura 1? Shoot lol (But yeah, I know, she has like a whole big solo in the beginning of Survivor so lol)
Still interesting to hear the line distribution to this as Ayaka, then Rei and Minami, then Sakurako, and the rest.
Did not expect something like that the first time this group was announced.
But yes, its nice that they made this just like Watashi ga Iu Mae ni with the whole "you get to hear everyone sing" distribution. Everyone has a nice voice, though of course others are technically better than others. We have an array of voices in this group, but they seem to also work quite well together. That's (literally) good to hear >.<
