But yeah, I agree that the members are a worry - still, I do hope the major debut will help to keep them this stable, and to keep the current members, because this is the best that the girls have been in a long time <3Chiimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701328512389573612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585408539260734116.post-60936669150970707852015-04-03T02:58:08.997+01:002015-04-03T02:58:08.997+01:00Whoa, I knew RTK was going to have a major debut, ...Whoa, I knew RTK was going to have a major debut, but I had no idea it was finally happening with HouPri. Thanks for the scoop! That is so awesome! My biggest worry about this group has always been member turnover (and their skirts not being short enough, but just kidding about that). I think being signed to a major label helps with lineup stability (although it's been pretty stable for a while, outside of Nene graduating). I really hope Universal treats them right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585408539260734116.post-23080066862323231392015-02-21T05:53:14.926+00:002015-02-21T05:53:14.926+00:00Yes, many congrats to them! And now they're go...Yes, many congrats to them! And now they're going major, it may be way easier to look them up (soon... I hope XD) but also, thank you. All the thank yous! <3Chiimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701328512389573612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585408539260734116.post-40098464399191933322015-02-21T05:52:04.961+00:002015-02-21T05:52:04.961+00:00It's like killing two birds with one stone, ri...It's like killing two birds with one stone, right!? We get double for one, MUAHAHAHA!!! All of the fans of Chiba/Hitomi will be happy, and then there's HouPri nuts like me, who look forward to the debut! No matter though, I am happy for both groups - it's a dream come true.<br /><br />I can understand why you prefer them - it's easier to follow. It can be frustrating with indies groups, but I like that obscurity, too. I'm weird like that. And yeah, indies = performance based on stage, so a lot harder to watch out for. So, now these two groups are going Major, I do hope you can see and hear more from them! See if they are to your taste~<br /><br />I am actually hoping their videos get better. I mean, even indies, you could see the progress with HouPri - their locations got nicer each time. For crying out loud, they started off in a gym, and have progressed slowly to prettier settings. So, I hope for more and more improvement further on with Universal!<br /><br />YumeAdo will be difficult, I agree - they were very much about quality before, and yeah, I didn't know they were indies until their major debut was announced! It's surprising, because they are professional and so... well, good! For indies, they are the cream of the crop.<br /><br />I look forward to ALL of these debuts though personally. My 2015 = MADE <3Chiimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701328512389573612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585408539260734116.post-1327810444629268572015-02-20T05:32:04.273+00:002015-02-20T05:32:04.273+00:00Super special awesome and congrats to HouPri!

I've been meaning to make another attempt at expanding my horizons and after listening to your podcast (*hugs*), I've been getting a little interested.<br /><br />Congrats all around!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8585408539260734116.post-74582396868858321262015-02-19T05:35:43.435+00:002015-02-19T05:35:43.435+00:00Oh my gooosssshhhhh! Yayyyy!!! I know I'm nowh...Oh my gooosssshhhhh! Yayyyy!!! I know I'm nowhere near as big of a HouPri fan as you, but I've always enjoyed seeing things from them every now and then, and I'm really excited about this!<br /><br />And READY TO KISS is getting a major debut, too? Wow, that's just great!<br /><br />This is going to be good for me as a fan because I tend to enjoy major label idols more than indies idols. Not that I don't have respect for what the indy idols do, but it's just really hard to keep up with the news and such for them, and I just don't have the energy for that. XD Plus, indy idols' careers are mostly based on their live performances, I think, and since I can't actually go see them live, well...<br /><br />But now that they're on a major label they'll have many more opportunities to impress me. :) Major label debuts normally lead to higher quality songs and videos too, so I'm looking forward to that.<br /><br />IDK how YumeAdo's going to top their own work on a major label though... their songs were already so good (and so successful on Oricon) that I had know idea they were indy until they made the major label announcement.Shaynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07305500850045787982noreply@blogger.com
