...Magnolia Factory.
Please don't, UF*.

...I sometimes wonder if they have people from UF that speak english that purposely come onto fan sites and spy for feedback. (it seems to be so, especially lately with the way certain things are being criticized and are changed.)

...Idk, something about the concept of having to make flowers in a factory... doesn't work in my head. xD (like, in Japanese it sounds better than when you translate it.)

My only problem with it is that I think it makes more sense to just use "Kobushi" since that's a specific name for just one blossom, not an all-encompassing term for every kind of magnolia. But I mean.. it sounds nicer and gives me much prettier mental images than "Fist Factory", so I won't complain if they want to use it every now and again. :lol:

It is Magnolia Factory though, Kobushi can have multiple meanings but the main meaning is Magnolia. I like the contrast between flowers and factories as well.

I like it because it reminds me of Magnolia Bakery :D This group needs a cute magnolia logo/emblem!

The way H!P fonts have been going you'll be lucky if they use something besides Times New Roman to make their logo with.

Kinda throws me off that they translate it at all.
I mean, it's the name of the group.
You don't see them go "Morning Daughters" or "Morning Girls" on the covers of MM singles. Or "Berryz Factory" on Berryz singles.
The name is Kobushi Factory. Leave it as Kobushi Factory ffs.

when you buy the DVD single at the Week End Survivor musical's venue, the staff will give you a participation ticket to a High Touch event. The High Touch event will be after every musical performance.
