My Melon Kinenbi story: I too stumbled upon them, never discovered them until probably Kosui. They were always in the midst of the H!P videos, like that 2000 in Hawaii episode, H!M Skits, etc. The KOSUI dropped and I was like damn who is this cutie in the car singing with these R&Bish type girls. Then I learned they were a "mature" group to Morning Musume's wildness. Track after track was GOLD. This is Unmei! Saa! Koibito ni Narou! Denwa Matteimasu! Fell in love with each member, esp. Shibata. How close they were to Rika. Like in this video
