Tsukasa has a twitter account again -> https://twitter.com/aoi_tsuksa7

I hope she won't be stupid and delete it again like she has previously done (2-3 times already)

I know this is not the Sexy-J thread but I really loved Marina's solo song "1986年のマリリン". After the sports episode I'm liking her more and more :inlove:
Sexy-J
Oh, and a little pic from Miku's Twetter featuring the strongest and the fastest Muscats members. Don't mess with these ladies!

Looks like we can expect new members on the show in the near future, maybe as soon as next week. There are three names floating around at the moment, since it is unconfirmed, I will only put the initial of the names here:

M.Y.
H.R.
I.M.

All three rumored new members are AV girls.
Hi ikari456 and thanks for the data. About the first girl, I was about to say Manami Yamaguchi :nervous Seriously, maybe is Yuuka Minase? She's a busty girl like Anri and Shunka so I think she would fill their spot well. I can't think about anyone for the other names at the moment...

Now that I think about it, JAV stars making trips to the US indicates a photoshoot of some kind. But what worries me is that it's the kind of thing that can be tied to a retirement JAV. Rina Rukawa retired from S1 doing the exact same thing by going to Vegas where it was all recorded and have that be part of the final AV. I know Acky said she would like to stay in the JAV business for the foreseeable future, but maybe things have changed...We won't know for some time anyway but it would be the end of a golden era for me if Acky retires from the JAV business.

Rio testing out the theory that blondes have more fun by the looks of it. I'll always think of her as the raven haired beauty but she looks good with that hair colour too :heart:

hint for the other two girls in case anyone is interested in guessing. I think it should be easy enough to guess.

H.R. the first kanji character of her last name is the Japanese word for star, the star you see in the sky. Cute and busty.

I.M. the first kanji character of her name sounds the same as one in Japanese even though the character itself is not one. Has good experience as MC in event.

Yume Kana is also in Vegas right now, so maybe a Maxing project with Acky and Kana.

There is a new rumor stirring that Anri Okita will be retiring this year (rumor here: http://www.avcollectors.com/board/index.php?PHPSESSID=419e3c3f7d6348f3ffc1b6adb5a94c12&topic=199634.10)...but yeah, let us go with the benefit of the doubt about this...

Yes but that photoshoot wasn't specifically for their retirement AV's like it was for Rina. Some time had passed before they retired, Kaho only doing it this month.

In the end, two of the three rumored girls are officially part of the new group. Since the information is made official already, no point to keep it a secret anymore, the new members are:

Mikami Yua (M.Y.)

Ichikawa Masami (I.M.)

Just in case anyone is wondering, the third rumored girl was Hoshimi Rika.

The two new members will appear in today's show.

I am not exactly sure why they reveal the information before the show actually airs, which kind of take the surprise out of it. My guess is that they want to reveal the two new girls as early as possible to see if they can boost the sales of their concert tour? Apparently the ticket sale for local concerts on the upcoming tour are not doing too well, which does not come as a surprise since some of the places that they will be performing don't even show the Muscats on TV. Personally, I think it is way too early for them to go on tour since they haven't been around long enough to build a strong enough fan base yet. It took the original Muscats three years before they went on tour and even the original Muscats couldn't sell out a lot of the local venues, let along the new group. I would say based on the new group's first CD sales numbers that they are not at the same level as the original Muscats in terms of popularity. I wish the two new members and the group well though.

Here are a couple of interview with the two new members if you can read Japanese

I KNEW IT! I FRIGGIN KNEW IT! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like the Ebi*Masu has an AKB Member in their arsenal since KONAN (Yua is formerly known to as Kito Momonoka during her stay at SKE48)

So that means....

Yua has come back...HOME! (to the Idol scene, that is)

Like Yua, Masami Ichikawa had a great track record in her sleeve. The biggest of it was she is the Soft On Demand's PR Officer...



And as for Rika Hoshimi, she is a great one. She is a member of MGZ, or Million Girls Z, a girl group formed by Million with Ayaka Tomoda as the leader.



(side note, she almost like the twin sis of EbiMasu 4th Gen Alumnus Riri Kuribayashi)

Another side fact: Ichikawa and Mikami are 2 of the nominees for the Best Newcomer Award in this year's DMM Adult Awards.

So the rumors are true then? The question is, will her music career be on a halt? guess we will see...

I assume it would be. When Risa Kasumi announced her retirement, her time with Muscats came to a swift end as well.

Amongst all the JAV retirements happening lately (seriously, makes you wonder if something's happening behind the scenes), let's hope that Acky doesn't quit soon. Or Shou.



Or Kana Yume

I think Shou is much more submersed in her DJ career and teasing us for her return in the cosplay world.

Kana might be like Acky...she is likely to be attached in the industry.

and oh...I will leave this here...
