Just Another H!P Blog

It was announced yesterday that Ongaku Gatas & H!P Egg member Mutou Mika will graduate from Hello!Project on April 30 to lead a normal life.

It seems Onagku Gatas is dead. They should really release a new single soon, and with Noto Arisa in Happy!Style now, who knows when she will decide to leave too.

The special unit featuring Takahashi Ai, Tanaka Reina, Shimizu Saki, Yajima Maimi, and Maeda Yuuka now has a name! High-King will be releasing their debut single titled C/C (Cinderella/Complex) June 11th.

To learn more about High-King: Cinderella the Musical Special Unit

A special unit for Cinderella the Musical has been announced. The members are Takahashi Ai and Tanaka Reina from Morning Musume, Shimizu Saki from Berryz Kobo, Yajima Maimi from C-ute, and Hello!Pro Egg Maeda Yuuki. At the moment the group’s name is “Cinderella The Musical” Special Unit, but that’s subject to change. The groups single (title to be announced) will be released June 11.

I’ve been hesitant to post this since I’m still really (like, really really) confused…

The members for a new group, Happy!Style were revealed the other day. All the members areeither in H!P Kansai or are Eggs. The group will sing famous idol and anime songs. It is still unknown whether the group will be part of H!P or not.

They will perform their first live, Communication Circuit 001, on May 6. The members are:

Aoi (Rookie trainee)
Abe Asami (not the Abe Asami AKA Abe Natsumi’s sister)
Nakayama Nana
Noto Arisa
Iwashima Manami
Suma Ai
Yui (Rookie trainee)

The members of the new H!P unit Milky Way have been confirmed. My guessing was mostly wrong… Kusumi Koharu will be in this group along with Kikkawa Yuu and Kitahara Sayaka.

Kikkawa Yuu is a Hello!Pro Egg who also auditioned and made it to the final five in the Morning Musume Happy 8ki audition. Kitahara Sayaka is also and Hello!Pro Egg.

The group is, as I guessed before, for the anime Kirarin Revolution. Kikkawa will play Hanasaki Kobeni (glasses w/ purple-ish hair) and Kitahara will play Yukino Noel (blue hair). Of course, Kusumi will play Kirarin.

Their first single, Anata Boshi, will be the opening to the new season of Kirarin Revolution. The single will be released on April 30th.

Mano Erina will graduate from Ongaku Gatas at the end of tonight’s concert. She will also graduate from H!P Eggs after the 2008 Hello! Project Shinjin Kouen 3gatsu ~Kirameki no Yokohama~ concert at the end of the month.

She will begin voice lessons to prepare for her solo debut.

I’m really excited about this, I’d like to know more about Erina and her being a soloist is a perfect way. Although I am sad about her no longer being on Ongaku, I hope she is succesful.

 My computer can’t read torrents, sorry.

According to Centuryland, Korenaga Miki has graduated from the Hello!Project Eggs to focus on Gatas Brilhantes H.P. and Ongaku Gatas. So basically she won’t be a backup dancer now.

Noto Arisa is now the leader or H!P Eggs.
