    ^ I think, the only shows that were translated to English are Nemousu TV specials when members climbed the mountain.

    uploaded them to Mega, since they get deleted from video hostings

    took me a while to recognise a few of them, disappointed in myself for not being able to recognise Iori easily :(
    but yes I think they all look really nice and I prefer this much more than Kemono

    thanks again @fatrain for the mega links, I don't know if its important but I thought I might mention that when copying that link, even with including the (delete this) part, the link still worked.

    still waiting on my Iori gravure to arrive.....:wall:

    I'm so happy JD:censored: attended to our appeal and their developers updated the patch to enable one to d/l from Bili:censored:

    This made it so convenient for some of us :blush:


    Love the comparison with the original characters. LOL Wish there is a poster like that <3 !

    ah! 50 minutes of awesomeness! :cute:
    behind the scenes are always interesting, but the whole 50 minutes of them... and for free?! :worthy: how generous could =management be? :XD:

    [​IMG]

    Hana was crying because she was insecure since her dancing and singing aren't anything exceptional, so she wanted at least for her acting to be good.

    Iori's solo line in Caution never fails to slay me.

    You mean that line at the end when she screams?[hehe]
    I personally prefer her lines in seifuku christmas, but caution is pretty awesome too, either way you can very clearly tell its Iori and that's the best part


    if the video does not show watch the video here
    a whole different Iori voice if you've never heard it before, wish we get more chance to hear this version of Iori voice, admittedly its less likely to stand out than her usual voice but I do like this one too

    also would like to express a bit of:explode:. got my June edition of Young Jump today at last and so happy to see the Iori photoshoot. And then I find out the 200+ page book only has 4 pages of Iori....:cold::cold:. All very nice but needs Moar!:cry2:

    probably rather irrelevant but out of a whim recently I looked up =LOVE's 13th member Chounan Mai who ended up dropping out in the end

    seems like she's just recently become the 4th member of a group called Nankini, performed in TIF 2018 apparently
    https://twitter.com/nankini_maimai/status/1006881348844261376

    She looks like Naatan in some pictures
    https://twitter.com/nankini_maimai/status/1002520252062752769

    if I understood this article right, initial plan may have been for her to be centre?
    https://jijyou2navi.com/1196.html

    think she could've been a really strong member if she had picked =LOVE.

    ^ yeah, she was a very popular when members were first introduced. many fans remembered her and hoped that she'd somehow someday return to =LOVE, but it was never meant to happen. by looks alone she had the potential to be in top 3, I think.

    fans doing wotagei to "=LOVE"

    Iori never cease to amaze with her different styles. probably the most diverse member

    What was the reason she dropped out?

    the article I linked seems to suggest that it was because she was believed to have a boyfriend? but I believe 1 of the unique things about =LOVE was that Sasshi was going to be fine with the member dating so I don't know
    maybe pay related? because she was possibly planned to be center maybe she expected something more than what was offered? I really don't know and I don't know enough Japanese to investigate much more. I bet @fatrain would be able to enlighten us a bit on this.
    She really did look like a good candidate for center, had the Maika bangs and can match Naatan cuteness. I can somewhat understand why Hitomi felt the pressure when she ended up being center

    for some reason the fans doing the wotagei seem to be able to do it quite effortlessly, in contrast you see when Iori does it, its like she trying to get a gold medal for it or something[hehe]

    I won't even bother complimenting Iori pics anymore, they're just always gonna be awesome:worthy:

    Wasn't Chounan Mai like 12 years of age when =LOVE was formed? She looks all grown up now? lol

    I tot she was like 17 or 18 that time. certainly looked like she was 12 tho

    I can Imagine if she had stayed, she may have been made center and potentially also be the center for Todoite
