what the hell just happened? I come back to civilization today only to read about some new group called Pucchi Passpo, Miomio being their costume designer, Annya assisting with their choreography, etc. With the Passpo members actively in this project, does this mean they have EFFECTIVELY disbanded?.
I'm really lost here. Mio and Annya have a niche in this project, and possibly (I was hoping) Sako could return to write their songs and lyrics one day joining the other 2 BFFs of hers. Will we see them perform live again? I know there is always a chance somebody will quit and surely mean Pucchi Passpo is a successor group to assume Passpo's mantle in this genre. If anything, the involvement of the Passpo members in getting this new group flying will be their final lasting legacy as senpais...the old generation passing the baton to a new generation before retiring for good. at the same time, giving the original members a crack at a second career either in other entertainment/variety or behind the scenes.
I guess with all its said, in a few years time, we probably will see some backstage footage of chief dance instructor Annya yelling at some unfortunate Pucchi Passpo member, or Sako reporting the news from some distant land as an overseas correspondent. But for now, I still want to see them as a group, even though I know the end will come soon enough.
