since Risa's sister didn't pass HKT's auditions, there is a chance that Sasshi already prepared a spot for her in =LOVE's sister group

no, they'll probably announce it when new members are introduced for the first time like it was done with =LOVE

not sure if its gonna be worthwhile, the last one was like 15 minutes only
at least I don't see signs of Iori bailing on this one

 

^ I think it was well worth it - we could see a choreography of Kono Fune for the first time!

Today (12/6) is one year release of 僕らの制服クリスマス (Bokura no Seifuku Christmas)

So, I decide to make something, here it is:

「僕らの制服クリスマス」(=LOVE/イコラブ) /　佐々木 舞香 feat. ArchieRinn

Sorry, i'm still noob

Please enjoy it!

p.s: I hope Maika will come back soon

 

I just thought of something. It's pretty unlikely, but it's something I would be interested in.

It would be cool, in my opinion, if =LOVE's sister group was called =HATE and if they had a pretty dark concept. I'm saying it's unlikely because idol groups are usually bright or at least have a name with a positive connotation and the ark concept doesn't seem that popular among the most popular idol groups right now but if =LOVE was like a happy and cutesy idol group, it would be cool to see a more mature and darker theme in the sister group. The name is up for debate, of course (and I'm not the one to decide on that anway lol).
