Now that they're officially named,

 


New H!P Kenshuusei Unit Announced

A new H!P Kenshuusei unit consisting of Miyamoto Karin, Kanazawa Tomoko, Uemura Akari, Otsuka Aina, Takagi Sayuki and Miyazaki Yuka, has been announced.

It had been speculated that the amount of exposure the Kenshuuseis have been getting lately would eventually lead to the formation of new units or groups that will allow Tsunku’s wish to come true and expand Hello! Project a little bit more, and it’s quite understandable since Morning Musume have already celebrated their 15th anniversary, the H!P Kids their 10th as well as Berryz, so some new fresh young units are a must.

The name of the new unit consists of Hello!Project Trainee is 「Juice=Juice」
Digest of Tsunku Blog.
The member is as follows:
■ Takagi Sayuki : The Hello! Project Trainee.
■ Miayamoto Karin: She has a good character.
■ Ootsuka Aina: 9th audition's member, good voice.
■ Uemura Akari; 9th audition's member. She can't dance well. but it's also her charm point.
■ Kanazawa Tomoko: one of a member of the contest of Berryz×℃-ute 「Cho HAPPY SONG」 Owing to her smile and voice at the time, she became the member. she is a rookie but we look forward to her.
■ MIyazaki Yuka: Now, she isn't the member of H!P trainee. She took 10th audition and new member of Smileage audition.
Looking her activity of GREEN FIELDS, we chose her for the new unit.

these six will start their activities as indies group.

EDIT: They have fruit/flavor-coded :P

Uemura Akari = Melon
Miyazaki Yuka = Peach
Takagi Sayuki = Lemon

Tsunku comment on the members
http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/entry-11478354838.html


Takagi Sayuki
Her singing is rock-type and her dancing is powerful, you'll get the feeling that she's THE haropro kenshuusei from her high skill level

Miyamoto Karin
Up until now she has participated in a few unit in Hello Project as someone with a real talent. Her chara is also strong

Ootsuka Aina
An exceptional person left from the final round of 9th generation Morning Musume Audition
Her voice quality through the mike is something that draws you in

Uemura Akari

She made it until the 3rd round of Morning Musume's 9th gen audition. She's still a novice in dancing and singing but that part also makes me smile. I'm expecting great things from her personality

Kanezawa Tomoko
One of the member of a group that took part in Berryz工房×℃-ute(ベリキュー)「超HAPPY SONG(シングルver.)」 karaoke contest with DAM★
She stood out there with her smiles and singing and then she joined haropro kenshuusei. She has just joined so she's the designated star rookie(?)

Miyazaki Yuka
Although she's not part of the current kenshuusei roster, she was one of the finalist in the 10th generation Morning Musume audition and the S/mileage new members recruitment. She's currently a part of the Satoyama Movement unit GREEN FIELDS and after seeing her accomplishments there I decided to add her in this new group

cmiiw as always :)
He also said the swapping, removing and adding members for the final lineup is definitely a possibility depending on their growth during their indies activities/kenshuusei training

I'm glad he pointed out Sayuki's skills because I remember being impressed by her in the past, as well. It's awesome to see hard work be rewarded :)

I really wish them luck and for god's sake hope there won't be any swapping or removing of members because their little hearts would be broken :(

I wonder if I'm going to have a favourite member in this group... Something about Ootsuka Aina is endearing to me, but is that enough :lol:

Great group of girls, really looking forward to following them....

Sayuki Takagi named Kobukuro (along with Reina Tanaka) as a respected group- good choice, Sayuki chan!

So I'm guessing Juice=Juice will be a permanent senior h!p unit unlike Plumeria or Meloquat?
If so I'd like to see them go head-to-head with LoVendoЯ for Japan Record Award's 2013 Best New Unit :twothumbs
Remember H!P has produced 3 Best New Units, Morning Musume, C-ute, & S/mileage ;)

Singing sounds kinda good so far, tho I wasn't listening too closely - still, looking forward to this release!

There will be a MV, yes? I wonder when we'll get to see that...

I like the song upon first listen - was pleasantly surprised to hear the saxophone sounds  :) I wasn't sure what kind of sound they were gonna have

All I could think of when I learned of the name was this:


Also this moment from a Mechaike surprise test from 2006:


No matter the name, it's great to see Karin finally get promoted and H!P expand their operations! I'm looking forward to what all these girls can bring to the table.

Their song sounds simply okay to me, but I do like the saxophone.
