This looks to be Manoeri's last release as a Hello Project member! And possibly the last time we'll get to play the guessing game on what kind of lazy "friends"-related title it'll have! Perhaps No More Friends??? Or maybe they'll finally go with my Friends with Benefits idea? Maybe a totally different language like Amigos, or late '90s hip hop slang like My Mans-n-them!

"Four More Friends Over" 

That could work is there are four guest appearances; You and M.E. collab song please!

[Slack]

Knowing what her final concerts are titled, I'm betting it's going to be something like:
"For the Best Friends"

friends till the end

"No More Friends, It's Over!"

....

[winner]

Many More Friends Over... and Out~

Needs a photobook and IV to feel complete.

"For the Best Friends"

This might just be the closest guess, because it turns out this album will actually be a "best of" compilation:

I suppose it makes sense to end her time in H!P with such a release. Still, I would've preferred a bunch of brand new material, something to serve as a sign that her music career will continue after graduation. Maybe a new song or two will make it in anyway...

maybe "Best of Friends"?

[J-Triumf]

Looks like Slack and kawaii beam win! According to Amazon it will be called the amusingly obvious Best Friends.

So far the confirmed tracks include "Otome no Inori", "Genkimono de Ikou!", "My Days for You" and "Song for the Date".

Just announced by her manager:

The album will have 17 tracks total--14 from singles (most likely all 13 a-sides and I can only assume a b-side or indies release), 2 new songs, and a bonus track.

Looks like 2, 9, and 17 are the new songs...though I'm not sure what makes only one of them a "bonus track".

[TommyVD]

though I'm not sure what makes only one of them a "bonus track".

Nerima Calling! is supposedly a reworked song from one her more recent stageplays.
Hence "bonus", but not "new".
