Mirinya will be a runway model at Autumn/Winter Girls Award! (9/16)

=LOVE's web show Kitto Kimi da will end in September!
I hope they'll get a TV show in Fall season

 

Iori will be a main voice actress for original anime Hashire Tsuzukete Yokatta-tte (I am Glad I Could Keep Running, 走り続けてよかったって) that will air starting 10/8 (4 eps, 15 mins each). the story is about Yoani's young and aspiring voice actors.
interesting that it's already known who's going to sing the opening, but ending "will be announced later", so there is a chance that it will be =LOVE's 4th single!

arghh that latest documentary video just makes me miss Maika even more.

Geez Hitomi pro crying actor

didn't realise Sana cried during that performance in Hibiya park until I saw this documentary, she didn't do anything wrong I don't think? I'm guessing just overwhelmed by the turnout and fans?

 

^ documentary of =LOVE episode 8 "idol"
awesome as always!

Also the Covers for the 4th Single (Want You! Want You!)

 

OMG that MV!!
Maika absence makes me wanna cry
but I sorta feel there are quite some k-pop elements, in the dance, costume, even music. Not a bad thing but makes me wonder if Sasshi plans to attack Korean market as well with this.
as usual I look forward to translations

anyone watching that live anniversary performance? I think Sana's lost her voice, so deep..... think they're screaming a bit too much

 

A complete different from their last one. Loving it.

The covers also looks great. Too bad I don't have time yet to start watching their documentaries

 

Wow when Sasshi said this was going to be an idol sounding song, she was not kidding very different from the previous single but I actually really like the song love the mv as well, kyun kyun I also agree with people that have said it sounds kpopish, maybe thats why i like it

EDIT: I removed the stream link since it has ended. It was a great stream tho!

 

stream ends.
I am guessing the bonus video on the B and C singles are going to be the documentaries again?
quite liking that new uniform, all follow similar color theme but each has a unique design to it. I know I'm really biased but quite a fan of Iori's skirt/pants, looks like something u see in Anime heroines.

I wondered who they were gonna use to sing all those Maika lines in Bukatsu, I guess quite a reasonable choice to pick Sana
also I have to retract my statement about Sana losing her voice, seems like the rest of the performance she sounded quite normal again, I dunno what happened when she was singing Kioku, it sounded completely different everytime she sang
also I felt like sometimes Mirinya's voice had been edited or autotuned in some way to have a much "cuter" tone? I know she shares a lot of lines with Nagisa but it didn't even sound like Nagisa.

anyways looking forward to this album. the uniforms are gonna make for a great poster and I will be looking for that bucket head Kiara in the documentaries

 

Solo part of Iori is cool and I think Sanatsun looks fresher in that MV

too bad Maika is absent (

 

Yeah it does have some K-pop ish sound. Not necessarily targeting korean market, maybe more like taking inspiration from their more successful idol scene. I'm sure PD 48 also influenced Sasshi lol.

HITOMI though. She is so perfect. She looks so beautiful and cute in this mv. She's also very capable as an idol. Is it even possible for human to be that perfect? I'm exaggerating but I just REALLY like Hitomi.

 

WOW

Nice PV!

It was a fresh breath from the tense mood in teokure caution
Waiting with anxiety the b sides!

 

The thing that stands out to me is that set. It looks really expensive lol.

The song is still jpop and the Kpop elements being brought up is because the production looks like one with the bright colors and synchronized choreography. This MV also reminds me a lot of TWICE first single. Sana (I think?) is wearing the same Chicago Bulls jersey that Momo wore.

Overall, the single is really impressive and I hope they break their sales total, as well as get to perform on Music Station for the first time.
