Tagucchi & TokuChi

For some reasons, I love seeing these two together~

[blackknight07]

I've always thought of her as the Chinami of KF (not just because her color is orange ) I always looked at them as the mood makers of the group. No matter what's going on they always seem to make the other members laugh or smile.

^I agree completely.  Of all the member comparisons between KF and BK, these two members are the best comparisons.  In fact, their smiles are the same... really the same.

Sorry for the double post; but, I couldn't wait any longer for someone else to post this:

(Sorry, I didn't know how to properly post an IG video.)

Oh wow, didn't hear about this incident:

Taguchi Natsumi gets into fight with her family; leaves house at 11 PM

[blackknight07]

She was featured on this weeks Girls Live. Poor girl got so emotional when talking about Rena

[KumaixKamei]

It's really nice they let her talk about her friendship like this. 

Most of the times when members "graduate" like this, there is no more talk about them... 

[tsubakisaikou]

Especially in the way Rena graduated as well, I'm surprised they had a special feature about her in TGL. Watching Tagucchi talk about Rena was so heart breaking, and I could tell by the way she talked about Kobushi that she loves her group very much. What a good girl.

Scandal https://twitter.com/...0209984512?s=17

[YellowAccel]

I was joking about all my favs being fired or involved in a scandal but after my 1st and 2nd fav, it’s my 3rd fav. Watch out, Sakurako. You’re next

[Laharle]

Welp those are pretty explicit. It's the same case with Rena so I wonder how management will deal with this. 

 

But damn considering the timing how could both of them be so careless. Just hide it properly already.

[moarfff]

Yup ... That doesn t sound good at all for her :/

[Mizuiro]

4 scandals in a row? It's pretty obvious at this point a "friend" is behind all of this. 

 

She's my second favorite after Rei, and I will continue to support her.

I just hope UFP ignores this like Hamachan's "scandal".

Just exactly what I thought. I want them to be happy, I want them to experience love, but as an idol you simply shouldn't get caught. 

These are really explicit. Up-Front could always act as if these pictures didn't exist, or as if we can't be sure that's Taguchi... but I honestly wonder what happens next.

 

I mean... they didn't react to Rena's pictures either.

[RenaiHunter]

What if they planned this because they wanted to leave but management wasnt letting them?

they didn't react publicly, but it's not coincidence that Rena had some health issues pop up after purikura came to light.... If Taguchi goes on hiatus, then start worrying.

 

At this rate, might as well just blow up Kobushi and start over...  what a disaster these last few months have been.

[honeyharunanfan]

Yikes, another one.. such unfortunate timing. I don't think the management will stand behind her, we can expect a hiatus which will lead to 'graduation' (a la Rena) or even straight-up contract termination (a la Rio).

 

What an awful year for Kobushi tbh.

Yeah... I mean I'm not 100% against the idea of Rena actually having health problems. But that timing was... interesting...

Now, Taguchi can't get problems like these as well. 

 

What if they planned this because they wanted to leave but management wasnt letting them?

 

You know, that'd be big. Like, honestly big. Rio, too, did something that was so over the top that they fired her. And them all coming from the same group? 

I'm not really in the mood for conspiracy theories, but the timing...

[Fall]

It's something I've normally said about businesses in general and hadn't applied it to idols yet, but I suppose it does apply.  If your business model relies on someone in your employ not "getting caught" doing something that you expect or know they will be doing, it probably isn't a very good or sustainable business model.  I've been of the opinion for more than a decade now that the agency should just ignore the "scandals" and let the girls have whatever relationships they want so long as they don't get caught doing anything more explicit than normal PDA.  The insertion of "purity" into the idol industry to appease fans that can't handle that a performer they follow would dare to have human feelings is a cancer on the industry itself.  Especially when many of them are still so young when their parents sign their contracts.  The sense of ownership that many wota have over idols has always been a bit of a pet peeve of mine.

 

Edit: ^As was said above by Mizuiro, chances are a "friend" is responsible.  The girls in Kobushi (and possibly extending to girls in other groups as well) probably trust each other enough to share the pictures among each other.  If someone managed to sneak those pictures from the phone or computer of even one of the girls, it's likely they could have gotten a treasure trove that could have ended the careers of a number of H!P girls if the agency doesn't sweep them under the rug or simply ignore it.  That's barring any other possibilities like another girl in H!P being spiteful for some reason.

Damnit, not my Taguchi.
