I guess I'm happy for them but still no Kaedy? I feel like she'd be a good fit for CG too T_T

Is it wrong that I saw the thread title, and part of me was hoping that Uta-chan was one of them/had come back?

Country Girls welcome 2 new members
November 6, 2015

New members have joined Country Girls! They are 13-year-olds Funaki Musubu and Yanagawa Nanami from Hello Pro Kenshuusei.

This announcement was made on November 5 during Country Girls' event "Country Girls 1st Anniversary Event & Revival Festival for Tsugunaga Momoko" at Shinjuku ReNY. The event started with a live by four members, Yamaki Risa, Inaba Manaka, Morito Chisaki, and Ozeki Mai. When the girls started to perform their third song "Shining Itoshiki Anata", Tsugunaga, who had put her activities on hold since October, appeared on stage calling out, "Wait a minute!" She then announced to her fans, "I, Tsugunaga Momoko, have completely recovered!"

During the second half of the event, it was announced that two new members would be joining Country Girls. As the crowd roared with excitement, Tsugunaga called Funaki and Yanagawa onto the stage. Yanagawa greeted the audience saying, "I want to become an idol like Momochi senpai, who is known by everyone," while Funaki stated, "I am the youngest and shortest in Hello! Project, but I want to give a performance that will make you forget about my shortness."

Then, Tsugunaga read a letter from the group's supervisor Satoda Mai. Regarding the addition of new members, she explained, "In order to power up even more to become a group that is recognized around the world." After the new members left the stage and the group performed "Wakatteiru no ni Gomen ne" energetically.

It was oaxiac who called it!
Maybe they can replace her with one of the more popular eggs (Musubu? Kaede?)

Damn, these girls are tiny! I guess Country Girls are the new Mini Moni without the explicit size requirement? XD H!P needs a tall girl unit

But yes INDEED, congrats to Funaki and the other person!


Oops, wrong Funaki and other person... :P

(although with Momo's age and recent health problem, I wonder if she'll be lessening her activity soon...)
