Tsunku has announced a new Egg unit on his blog. He has not yet decided on a name. The members are Wada Ayaka, Maeda Yuuka, Fukuda Kanon, and Ogawa Saki.

-
Yuuka again ?? Tsunku likes her XD
yay Saki XD
I should call her Saki3
lol
-
D: OMG
AKARI GOT ROBBED!!! GAHH!!
edit:
(If you didn't notice, it's basically Shugo Chara Egg -Akari +Ogasaki. While I'm happy for the other Eggs, I really like Akari and am now a bit sad for her, especially since my impression about Ogasaki changes every day - on the one hand she's cute and has good stamina singing, on the other her voice isn't really that great, kinda whiny actually, and her personality does little for me)
-
Totally awesome news. The chosen members were chosen before-hand by Tsunku, but it wasn't announced to them until the last MC at today's concert. :lol: Yuukarin was the only one teary eyed.
The unit only consists of four members at the moment, but as Tsunku watches their lessons/concerts/rehearsals he will either decrease or increase the member count.
-
...BUT ANYWAY I'm happy that there's gonna be Eggs doing a major debut and now that Ayabie said that the members might still change I'm not gonna be too emo about it. YEAH!!
These members are going to be promoted to official members, right??
edit: OK SORRY STILL TALKING ABOUT OGAWA I mean of course it was obvious that she would be debuting sooner or later since she's the Egg that's been pushed at concerts a lot and she does have potential etc. blah blah. But because these members were so Shugo Chara, of course I noticed Akari missing first and that's what I reacted to. LOL
-
Yes! Saki will debut! :D
-
No idea, they (Tsunku) didn't say anything about graduating, both at the announcement and his blog.
-
hmmm .... no idea ... it could be just like Tomoiki Ki o Uetai, but I do hope it's a REAL group
really happy for Saki3
lol
-
Ogawa Saki! =D
Finally she's in a group! And with Yuuka!
Hope that they will actually be active and release singles.
-
Wow, so Saki-chan actually gets to be something other than egg :w00t:
Yay, Kanon and Yuuka! :wub: I don't know much about Ayaka but Yay as well!
-
I was wondering when an Egg unit would be announced now that Elder Club is gone. This is a super awesome unit! I'm so happy that it has Yuukanon and DAWA! No Akari is sad, but she might still be added XD And I was wondering when Ogasaki would debut!
-
MAN. I'm pretty torn about no Saho....
I do like Ogasaki and DAWA though, so good for them! Hopefully we get to see some more awesome eggs join in the future. Like Sengoku... Or Morisaki... or Aoki Erina!! :heart:
-
Yay new Egg unit! I like how the eggs units are composed of girls who seem to be close friends, these are the same girls who are usually together on the pics in their respective blogs.
But poor Akari got shafted :cry:
I hope she gets to be in unit with Sengoku, Sekine or Kikka... :lol:
-
^Except mori saki is often pictured with them too and hasn't been in any units yet :( :(
-
The unit only consists of four members at the moment, but as Tsunku watches their lessons/concerts/rehearsals he will either decrease or increase the member count.
sounds pretty much like momusu style... i bet it reach a total of 5 or 6 members and then a new unit will appear XD

-
He actually did tell them in advance after all. Yuukarin caught me off guard by crying the at concert. :lol:
Short clip of Tsunku giving them the announcement (http://www.mediafire.com/?xddm2n4zg40). It was supposed to be limited to FC members but they're not very bright.
-
Thanks Ayabie!!!! I hope they'll stay non-bright forever. :heart:
I actually miss this kind of backstage stuff. Like ASAYAN. :lol: Announcing stuff. Making kids compete. Tears. Sadness. Happiness. Success. AHhH the drama!
-
I hope this leads to increased competitiveness within the Eggs, that's part of what made H!P so much fun.
You know, they could add Nocchi to the group and it could be like a mini Morning Musume (with a slightly less crazy age gap XD). They already have a Fukuda as it is, so it's a good start XD Though if this did happen, I'd like this mini Momusu to be more entertaining.
-

probably uploaded by a FC member right? just like those PV previews for the cellphone.
the only thing about i can tell so far is that by judgubg the picture Yuuka is the leader, or maybe the unit is yuuka + the rest... not sure since i'm not even sure if those are the actual outfits but is obvious that Tsunka likes Yuuka and will promote more.
-
The outfits are just a coincidence.
-
^Yeah it's from the concert they're doing currently and Yuuka just happens to have the other colour scheme to the other girls.
-
Short sneak peek of the recording, with the actual recording muted of course. :lol:
2009.04.28 エッグ新ユニットレコーディングの模様を公開! (http://www.mediafire.com/?lmgrmvq5n0i)
-
XD XD XD can't wait XD XD XD
wonder when that song/single/album(lol) will be out ........
-
lol wut
和田、前田、福田、小川による4人組のユニット名を決定しました。
「S/mileage」です。スマイレージと読んでください。
http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/ (http://ameblo.jp/tsunku-blog/)
-
...lol WTF
Well to his defence, that name will stand out ... It looks pretty cool if you think of it as a logo or a decoration, not as something that's supposed to make sense...
-
Rofl my bank gave me an S'miles card to get points, I don't suppose I can redeem them with Tsunku? XD
The name's adorable though XD I take it that means that the line-up is pretty definite then.
-
first thing that struck me was " wth S-M???"
can't wait what style of songs they're going to release
-
I think saying the lineup might change was more to keep the girls on their toes than actually change the lineup maybe.
-
Don't ask me why, but apparently some guy records his adventures during handshake events. :lol: Anyway, he asked Yuukarin and Dawa who the leader was, the second time was for confirmation from Dawa:
#001 (http://www.mediafire.com/?jmthntijzkb)
: Is Kanon the leader?
Yu: No, she isn't.
: So it's still pending?
...
: Who's the leader? Is it Ayaka?
Ay: Yes, it is (lol)
#002 (http://www.mediafire.com/?aynidnmot3x)
: Are you alright with being the leader for S/mileage?
Ay: Yeah (lol)
Just take this with a pinch of salt for now. :lol: Although, in terms of seniority Dawa is the oldest member.
-
If that is true, it will be the awesomest news for me :heart: I still hate the unit name though :lol:
-
She'll be the best.leader.ever.
:lol:
-
Dawa will so be an awesome leader.
I was expecting the group to be named something like nochiura natsumi but this name is good too.
-
LOL I'm glad it's nothing like Nochiura Natsumi!!! Thx for putting things into perspective!!
-
It's official, Dawa is the leader. :lol:
Source is from her blog, which unfortunately is limited to the fanclub. Same goes for the video announcement.

Salute! This gonna be an awesome unit lol. Well, I just hope she still be the Dawa I know after she becomes leader XD
Congrats, Dawa!
And thanks for translation, tiny!
-
Yay! Congrats Dawa! This unit sounds like so much fun :heart:
-
S/mileage dance lessons!! Everyone :wub:
s/mileage practise #1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUOkof_UxP4#lq-lq2-hq)
s/mileage practise #2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Du7zmrxdKk#lq-lq2-hq)
-
Omfg! I'm glad I saw this before going to bed! Thx Risa! I like the song, tho it's the usual H!P stuff (or is that why I like it? dundundun)
Love to see dance practices and other backstage stuff o/
-
The song sounds so cute! I'm surprised at how mature they're looking in the jacket shoots though!
-
Wow, I think i love the song O_O The dance look cool too.
-
The song sounds pretty good and the dance looks great too. Can't wait for their debut.
The song sounds so cute! I'm surprised at how mature they're looking in the jacket shoots though!
S/mileage wasn't even smiling wth?! :P
-
S/mileage wasn't even smiling wth?! :P
That's what the dance teacher told them. :lol:
-
Quite impress by the general quality.
Sounds very promising !
-
Hell yes! Ama no Jyaku to be sold on this week's Shinjin Kouen. The FC was also updated with footage of the PV shooting today.
-
Man, that is FAST. :lol: It feels like only yesterday they announced that there might be a new group. I thought this group wouldn't actually exist for a few more months to come, but seems like UFA has got a lot faster with things LOL.
-
I :heart: this unit and they haven't even debuted yet :lol:

-
Looks cute!! And they look good together!!
-
ooh PV looks cute :D
Shouldn't it be written aMa no Jyaku?? With the first a being small?
-
It's just for show, same reason why Tokito Ami changed her stage name.
-
S/mileage 1st single "aMa no Jaku" (PV preview and message) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPY3McsMwkA#lq-lq2-hq)
PV PREVIEW.
(Looks so cheap... :bleed eyes:)
-
^I dont see cheap at all I see "H!P" :lol: but anyways the song is very nice and the outfits are c-ute! This is such a good group of girls I'm glad they were chosen :heart: Oh and I want a full version of the song already!
-
It's like the Ame PV!(Except with an upbeat song, and the dance shot reminds me of Kaze no Uwasa)
Uh, I guess I'll edit after I get my hands on headphones and hear this thing again.
-
Song sounds cute so far, but that PV literally looks like something the girls made themselves after school. :doh:
-
There seems to be some misunderstanding here since that's only footage from the making of, and not the actual PV. :lol: I'd reckon it takes a lot more cash to rent a building rather than the usual green-screen setup.
-
Well, this was interesting, it's being released under Good Factory Record...
(http://xs140.xs.to/xs140/09234/hpimg1035565.jpg.xs.jpg) (http://xs.to/xs.php?h=xs140&d=09234&f=hpimg1035565.jpg)
http://www.tnx.cc/history.php (http://www.tnx.cc/history.php)
i.e it's managed by Tsunku, as opposed to UFW.
Edit: It's gone from the site now which just makes it even more suspicious.
Edit #2: Preview from Takahashi's radio show.
Smileage - ぁまのじゃく (http://www.mediafire.com/?cmzdztzjzlu)
-
Haha company politics. Anyway thanks for the preview, I think the song's super cute.
-
What would that mean?? This unit isn't going to be TNX, right?? That would be equal to shoving them into a box in the basement!! D: Omg I'll be so furious if they do that!!!!
-
Thanks for the radio rip shirenu! I love it! I don't think that they will be under TNX maybe that site made a mistake.
-
That was Ayabie who posted the rip XD I've only done shouting
-
woops.. :sweatdrop: Thanks Aya! :lol:
-
It's over...
http://www.tnx.cc/release.php?id=35 (http://www.tnx.cc/release.php?id=35)
-
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO FUCK NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCKING TSUNKU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCKING COCK SUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
-
WAIT! Maybe this single is only going to be under TNX and then the rest of the releases will be under up front because s/mileage hasn't graduated from H!P yet and they are still doing H!P concerts and performing with Mano. If the officially go to TNX then I will be very upset but for now I'm not going to overreact. Does anyone have the full song? Please share it :) :lol:
-
omg the overreaction is happening here too >_< -__-"
Ayabie and shi I expected better of you
*takes a deep breath*
THE TNX PAGE ACTUALLY LINKS BACK TO HELLO! PROJECT AND UFW!!!!
THEY'RE ALSO NOT UNER NGP WHICH WOULD BE WHAT TSUNKU WOULD DO IF HE ACTUALLY MOVED THEM TO HIS OWN WORLD
no panicking until this is announced please, as it is they're still with UFW
sorry for the bold yelling but I've had to say this so many times today -___-"
if it's too much i'll take the bold away, but I needed to counteract shi's overreaction to this.
oh yeah I'm allowed to swear here....
ALSO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BEING WITH NGP IS NOT THE END OF THE FUCKING WORLD!!!!
Just cuz you gave up following them doesn't mean everyone else has....
-
if kanons still in minimoni and mini moni is in H!P then it wouldnt make sense to have kanon in NGP.... it is only after all an indies single....
-
@Blu-Cherri: It's nice of you to look at it positively, but it just doesn't make any sense.
- Mano Erina and C-ute were both under UFW during their indie period
- They had no reason to do this (http://xs.to/xs.php?h=xs140&d=09234&f=hpimg1035565.jpg), and remove it a few hours later if it didn't mean something
- The people who worked on Ama no Jyaku are TNX staff
- UFW are too busy pushing forward Manoeri, and it will probably last another year
- As it is now they're practically the successor to The Possible (All members were Eggs and under Tsunku's management during their indie period)
I don't know what to think. Disproving this is the fact their official page is still H!P and the possible member changes in the future.
-
You don't need to patronize me Blu-Cherri :) I can handle myself thank you
= If I want to shout I'm fucking gonna do it so stfu
-
^
^I don't get what the removing it from the website means....
Tsunku did say they debut september time originallly, this isn't their real debut.
^I didn't say anything mean to you...didn't say you couldn't yell either...sorry if I sounded patronizing I didn't mean to T__T
-
Basically the TNX site was updated with the release info, and in this case GFR being the publisher is huge -> The news makes it to the public followed by confusion -> The single disappears from the site a few hours later
-
It's not like the TNX website maintainers never make mistakes...
Also, remember TNX does not equal NGP. TNX is a production company owned by Tsunku under the umbrella of the Up-Front Holding. In fact TNX produces many UFW releases, look at the credits of the Morning Musume albums from the last several years for example. It is entirely possible that TNX now handles the production and marketing of Up-Front's indie singles. A little internal UF restructuring, so to speak.
Note that I speak only of production and marketing. Management is entire other matter. Unless otherwise can be construed the members of S/mileage are still with their current management agency (Up-Front Agency?).
It is good to know that there are different companies performing different tasks to create the products "idol" and "CD/DVD release".
So a release suddenly appearing under the Good Factory label does not mean that the artist has changed management or is now part of an other brand (H!P vs NGP).
-
^
^But it's back on the site with GFR...it's in the release section.
The NGP girls use TN-MIX to release their singles according to the tnx website.
The single is just using GFR like buono use pony canyon.
Here is a photo of the back of the single.
(http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/4310/1244426338.jpg)
still has that H!P eye thing.
I mean yeah maybe in a year or so he might move them to NGP but if they're successful it won't make a difference and if they're not that successful then...well I don't see it making much difference either...
^When I first heard this I wondered if it worked out better financially to use GFR rather than UFW(which isn't usualy its own label)
-
Gotta love it when idols (aka young, cute girls meant for entertaining) provoke such drama XD
-
^its kinda scary sometimes :( ANYWAYZ look it still has the H!P sign!
