So, let us find out if this is a group for one single or something continuing.

I don't know what connection these girls have to each other more than being KKS. Can't be without personal chemistry if you want a group to be successful and last. 

 

Various news clips tomorrow I guess.

[Krusha]

The connection they have, is that they are all very, very popular girls. Furthermore they are also very skilled girls. Of course, one could ask why isn't Moechan in this unit? Why isn't Okapan in this unit? Why isn't etc. but a sub-unit/group tend to stop at a certain low number anyways

[gryzze]

They probably got to know each other when they had those super KKS handshake lines a few months back.
I think most (if not all) of these girls took part on some occasion.

I wonder how Kojima Mako suddenly became Kojima Makoto.

 

Anyway, this sounds nice, sort of like what happened in one of the older arcs of AKB49, which was basically a three-person-unit consisting of very popular kenkyuusei. Only, there's quite a few more of them in the 'real' version.

[Krusha]

Tsurugi_Ken, that's called a careless typo

[dev-null]

There already was a KKS unit once in 48 world. Probably many forgot about it already Namely "Mini Skirt" consisting of Takeuchi Miyu, Mori Anna (now graduated) and Shimada Haruka who where all KKS at the time.

Hopefully this new unit here has a longer lifetime. Though I have to admit that I know nothing about the SKE48 and the NMB48 girl yet. But the other 5 girls are definitely awesome.

May they last long (and thru KKS graduation).

[Krusha]

Yeah unlike Mini Skirt, I do believe this is going to be a "proper" sub-group/unit, with actual releases. At least that's what I hope

 

Live Long and Prosper, etc.

Happy music

Kitagawa Ryouha is a bundle of grace, preciousness and beauty. She got featured for Weekly Playboy relatively recently:

 

 

 

She is a future ace for sure.

 

Some nice videos:

About the unit song, judging by what I heard, pictures itself like one of those boring songs unfortunately.

Interesting

[Tsurugi_Ken]

Are they still billed as a "kenkyuusei-only" unit? Because that shouldn't be the case right now.

[Morning Death]

LOTS if screencaps from the drama:

Ryouha looks boss, KojiMako looks pillar, Mikichan looks adorable and Mio as well but a little cutely dorky. Nagisa looks hidden weapon. They all look sweet.

 

Apparently there are some adult themes being mentioned in the drama, like "love hotel".

[Krusha]

And after having had their little drama, they are getting a new show as was announced on AKBINGO!

Here is episode 1 of Tentoumu-Chu! no Sekai o Muchu ni Sasemasu Sengen!

Initial impression:

Spoiler

It was fun seeing how the girls would deal with a similar situation that they were thrown into, and also fun analyzing their facial expressions. Especially Mio. Some of the foreigners they were subjected to really gave off quite the cold air though, and didn't look very nice, so I can understand why some of the girls were unsure of how they should react.

I wonder what the next episodes will bring us

[Ketchup]

The second episode has been subtitled and up on the tracker

Really enjoyed this one and had lots of laughs as the girls are put in charge of running a small restaurant
