Thanks for the info, just watched episode 626 of Idoling!!!, with shinahachi live. Its great for Idoling to participate in these event giving fans the opportunity to meet them up and close, but I dont know having 2 lives per week is having a positive influence on these girls. Im sure the group is making money, cause the concert hall is usually full and most fans are buying CD's for the handshake event after. But I can see some girls are kind of out of it. I saw it when i was there, and its more apparent after doing it for almost a month and a half.
I just hope these girls can make these event into a positive experience for both themselves and the fans.
*note: hii-chan and serina says its their first time at shinahachi, if so then this was taken in early april. You can then discard the last sentence of my comment. Maybe i get to see back of my head if they keep this up cause i saw a camera the first one i attended, which was in mid april.
