A Beginners Song Guide To Houkago Princess (According to Kelly)

With 15 years of history and almost 70 songs under their belt, it begs the question where someone might start when it comes to HouPri's music...

Getting into an already-established group can seem a little daunting at first, especially when there is already a vast catalogue of songs that older fans know and love. Which song gets performed most at live events? What is their signature song? Is there a track that sends the fans into a frenzy the moment it begins? Most of all, where does one even start when it comes to a group with more than a decades worth of history?

That's where a post like this comes in. Inspired by a mutuals post on social media (as well as lists made in past), I have created for you all a Beginners Song Guide to Houkago Princess, all in a bid to introduce you to some of their most popular and recognisable songs that they have released in their 15 year history.

Listed in no particular order, this post is here to simply introduce you to some of Houkago Princesses music so that you can see just how incredible they are. Whether it is cool or cute, energetic or mesmerising, there is something for everyone to enjoy when it comes to HouPri's incredible discography!

The question is, which song will be crowned your favourite? It's time to fall into Houkago Princesses world of music and find out...

Turning Back The Clock: Houkago Princess ~Oshiete Kudasai~ Single Review (15th Anniversary Rewind Review)

And so the return to blogging begins...

Debuting back in August of 2011, Houkago Princess began as a small-time dress-up idol group who regularly performed at Ikebukuro WHITEBASE before eventually transforming into the seasoned princesses we see today. With a rich history and an ever-growing discography of songs, 2026 marks the groups 15th anniversary since their stage debut all those years ago, as well as the beginning of my love for one of my favourite idol groups of all time.

So, in a bid to celebrate my beloved HouPri for the 15 years they have been a part of the idol world, I will be returning to Okay! Musume Time to dedicate my time and words to all things Houkago Princess for their 15th anniversary. It is here where my love for Houkago Princess began, after all.

With 15 years' worth of history to share, I want to show you all the love I hold for this incredible group. My only hope is that you will join me in this celebration. Whether you are new to their music or have heard it all before, I hope you can all enjoy this series of dedicated posts I share my love and adoration for Houkago Princess and their legacy.

Are you ready to be enchanted? If so, it's time to turn back the clock and go back to the where it all began....

Houkago Princess Selection: The Top 5 PV's New (and Old!) Fans Should See!

When celebrating 5 years of Houkago Princess, I often look back to their videos, and see just how much these girls have grown, how much they improved, and how drastically the quality of their videos have changed... and believe me, people, the quality has upped itself quite a damn lot, especially when you put Oshiete Kudasai and Seishun Mermaid next to one another.

It's truly impressive, if you ask me; they started from the very bottom, and right now, they're paving their way higher up the mountain that is the Idol world. I feel so proud of them, let me tell you!

So, in my quest to deliver you all Houkago Princess posts in celebration of their 5 years upon this Earth, I will be sharing with everyone today a small collection of what I personally consider some of their best Music Videos, and hopefully, I will introduce you to some of their charms when performing in front of a camera! Are you ready?

Now, whilst I would have loved to give you a Top 10 Music Videos List, I have to admit that it'd be a bit difficult; for one, I can't seem to get Dailymotion videos to work here all the time, and secondly, I don't actually think HouPri have 10 good videos. 5, yes, but 10? That's a stretch, because whilst each year has seen their video quality rise, their videos have only truly been great since around late 2013, early 2014. So, it's a difficult thing, to pin-point 10 good music videos out of the 18 they have released (and tried to erase from youtube, actually).

Hence why I'm settling with the Top 5. It'll be a lot easier, and the videos will definitely be the higher-quality ones. Alas, that might mean you've already seen them... they'll be the most recent bunch, obviously.

Of course, what is suggested here for you to watch, and what I have ranked is completely subjective; have my tastes, as do you, so even if I found say, one video appealing, you might dislike it greatly, and find another HouPri PV that suits your tastes better. So, do take that into consideration... however, I am trying to deliver to you all what I think others would enjoy, as well as what I myself like from HouPri's small video collection.

And so, without further hesitation, let's take a look at what I might consider some of HouPri's best PV's, whether it's in look or its aesthetic! Will your favourite be presented here, or will there be something new to enjoy? Read and watch on to find out!
