Yay! I'm happy about all the picks, especially Ayano. I've been hoping she'd debut. The only one I'm bummed about not getting picked is Danbara. I'd have preferred her instead of maybe one of the former Nice Girls but honestly I'm pretty happy with the picks overall

Rumors are the new name will be

TBA=TBA

But others say the name will be

TROLLINGYOU

(Derived from the ancient Icelandic for ROFL)

Other topic...
Some are saying that the parentage of
Sakurako Wada is somewhat Mythical...

The tale is that one day, Ayaka Wada was
Swimming in the sea
And called out to Mt Olympus
(http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/t/jphip34871.jpg) (http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/jphip34871.jpg)

And moments
later, a 12 year
old Sakurako
emerged from the
Sea Foam, wearing
a Sea Blue
Beret
(http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/t/jphip34872.jpg) (http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/jphip34872.jpg)

Reporters caught up
with both Wadas, who
Each denied the rumor,
But photographs
Of Ayaka and Sakurako
revealed strikingly
Similar looks....
(http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/jphip34884.jpg)
(http://picroda.jphip.com/hp/jphip34885.jpg)

It feels a bit weird on the tongue still and 'factory' is a pretty generic word to use, but overall I'm just glad that they finally have a name and - well, you know - what's in a name :lol: I also like that it is somewhat related to Berryz Kobo :3


Now remind me to turn this thread into the Kobushi Factory thread a few days from now :lol: Still letting the unit name news sink in here in the news section

Post by: CrypticShadow8 on February 26, 2015, 01:15:12 AM
At first I was upset cause I was like "um Kobushi Factory sounds like a ripoff of Berryz Kobo." But now that I know that was done on purpose and Captain had a hand in it I'm happy for the tribute. Also after hearing the various definitions of Kobushi it sounds like they put a lot of thought into it. Anyway just glad for a name reveal.

Hirose Ayaka announced as the leader of Kobushi Factory

Fan reports from today’s (3/8) Nama Tamago Show say that Hirose Ayaka was announced as the group’s leader and Fujii Rio as the sub-leader. Fujii started crying before the announcement.

Woooow how odd! Tho I think Fujii would have to somewhat tone down her crazy personality if she were the leader... But I don't see that being the reason why the management would make such a decision... idk idk

The non-KSS girls seem to be pretty darn awesome, and love how with some members you can see their hunger for making it (tho I'm not sure it's as visible with all the members)... All in all GOOD STUFF! But are they not getting a proper MV?

EDIT: My bad, I didn't realize/remember it was a DVD Single, so I guess whatever was on the DVD is all there's going to be. >_>

What I find funny is, I think they knew there was a special announcement, but I don't think they knew it was a major debut, because they seemed to know something was going on, and when they looked at the screen, the next thing you hear after the audience cheering is their high-pithed screams of joy, excitement, and surprise.

Here is a clip with better sound quality, and it includes Kobushi Factory's performance of the song at the ceremony before the winner was announced, and then their repeat performance as the girls smiled through their tears of joy.

Having seen C-ute and S/mileage win this award previously, in all three cases it was a combination of high level song writing, and groups of very well trained girls, a real tribute to Tsunku and Hello! Project...

Kanon Fukuda, upon graduating from Angerme / S/mileage, said that this award was a highlight of her career....

Nice for the girls to have Yukie Nakama announcing their win, she is a fantastic example of life after idol...

^Amen to that!

I love it on Japanese television when they do short profiles on up and coming
artists, and the creators of the profile go for the dramatic, serious style of
reporting, which is very respectful of the young performers.

Kobushi factory members are still at the stage of their careers where each new success, & each new
fan is like a miracle to the members. And their ability to perform through their
tears of joy is miraculous in itself....

You can also check out the H!P Wikia:
http://helloproject.wikia.com/wiki/Kobushi_Factory
Lots of pictures there clearly showing off their faces, especially on the individual member pages.

(dammit, I was whipping up my own guide but shirenu beat me to it :lol:) On second thought, I'll post my quick guide anyway:

Ayapan: the leader, kinda chubby, small eyes, big boobs
Rio: short height, short hair, kinda big nose
Minami: prominent jawline
Rena: big eyes, mole under chin, kinda looks older than her age
Hamachan: relatively tall, wide baby-ish face, probably the most well-known of the bunch
Taguchi: the other short one, small head, bob haircut, very expressive face
Sako: the other tall one, round button nose, kinda looks like Junjun (http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=27972.msg1381414#msg1381414)
Rei: innocent smile, really long hair and neck

Also some music videos have them decked out in their member colors:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRnDU6GQpvk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtjqUqT_uiQ

And there's the Greeting series of videos that each focus on a few members at a time:

So the platoon leader, Hirose weighs in on one of her closest friend's departure (she seems to be taking it hard being Kobushi's CO)

Quote
Thank you everyone for your continued support towards Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory).
First of all, I would like to deeply apologize for such sudden news.
Since our debut Natsumi Taguchi and I spent our everyday's time together for around 3 years.
And to have such companion who goes out from the group in such way, I find this myself really regrettable and deplorable.
As the leader, I feel totally responsible for having such continuous news which saddened everyone during several months.
On the same time, I feel happy by being supported by many people in such circumstances, thank you so much.
Of course, I had hard times during the days I spent with Taguchi but, above that, I was able to make many dreams come true thanks to the support received from everyone.
Taguchi is taking here her leave of the road of Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory) and of being an idol.
As the leader, I feel lonely and frustrated, and I am so sorry for all the fans.
However, for the 5 members of Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory), there is no change in our desire to aim at our objectives, to follow voluntarily our path, as well as discovering beautiful experiences.
From now, I think it will be a new start for Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory), our feelings will change and we will deepen the ties between us, trust each other in order to be a group welcomed by everyone.
I would like to continue to do our best with all my might.
Please continue to support Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory) in the future.

Kobushi Factory (Magnolia Factory) Ayaka Hirose

They've  always impressed me since their debut- they started off with a high skill level, so on one hand it's not surprising to see that they're constantly improving, but on the other hand it is surprising in the sense that they're able to keep raising that high skill level. I sincerely hope the office keeps this current line-up for the rest of their career

Kobushi Factory will disband. A surprise announcement states that they will cease activities with their performance on March 30th. The group won the Best Newcomer award after debuting in 2015, and topped the Oricon chart with their 3rd single in 2016.

Following the disbanding of Kobushi Factory, Ayaka Hirose, Minami Nomura and Ayano Hamaura will graduate from Hello! Project and continue their entertainment activities. Rei Inoue will continue as part of Hello! Project, and Sakurako Wada will leave the entertainment world.
