It's unlikely, but with the new digital single craze H!P has been on, I would love if they would allow the solo/shuffle units from Hina Fest to record and release whatever song they perform as a digital single.

I still don't understand why they can't squeeze a Country Girls/Factories premium date.

No demand for them? Weird.

[Obsidian]

I guess the Factories joint 'Tour' dates are a bit of a consolation. It gives them something to work for next year. Tsubaki have been very successful but they still haven't even had a proper solo tour.

I don't think we should read too much into it. I think with the whole double Morning Musume thing they just don't have the time. Like last year I'm assuming because of the C-ute premium and Momo premium there was no Juice=Juice Premium even though they previously had one. So I'm hoping since nothing big should be going down next year (unlike the crazy graduations of last year and the huge milestone of this year) every group will be featured.

Finally the lottery video for the solos and shuffle units for this year is just posted

[core2quad]

The faces of all H!P members except Ayacho was blurred for the first 2 minutes because H!P wanted to protect their privacy as told by Ayacho
but then all/most of the members requested not to do it

[YellowAccel]

Oh, nothing for Haachin... But Harunan and Yumeno’s solos !!!

Thank You.

 

I'm Happy with the lottery.

 

but I;m just wondering about the black box, are there will be another lottery just like last year

[Fall]

I'd say there's no justice if Kawamura doesn't sing Doki Doki Baby, but at the same time, it would just be cruel to make her sing anything that isn't a S/mileage song.  Regardless, this is the performance I look most forward to for now.

[patapataful]

OMG Haruna got a solo        happy for her! Did you see her reaction!    

To bad the colonel wasn'T THERE

[Muyim Pimoup]

woo, Kawamuu solo,  really lucky,, 

also that 6-nin unit full of my faves,,

[midnightbottle]

This year's drawing doesn't seem that fun actually. Hahaha. But glad that Honey and Kana got something.

Angerme is the biggest winner of this draw (for the groups):

 

(1) MM'18: 5 (including Chisaki) - 40%

(2) Angerme: 7 (including Funaki) - 70%

(3) Juice=Juice: 4 - 57%

(4) Country Girls: 3 (including Chisaki and Funaki) - 60%

(5) Kobushi Factory: 0 - 0%

(6) Tsubaki Factory: 2- 22%

^ So sad for Kobushi

[honeyharunanfan]

Harunan.. Harunan solo? Is this real life? 

 

I am so happy and can't wait.    I wonder what song she'll sing hmm

 

 

OMG Haruna got a solo        happy for her! Did you see her reaction!    

 

I know, I was like is she upset she got nothing again, but nah she got a solo lol. That reaction was so Harunan though, she couldn't believe it

The drawings in last 2 years were much more interesting with Hama-chan Taisa and Saiko Shirei-ken Momohime-gensui

Haga Akane practices black magic and this is merely proof of it

[honeyharunanfan]

I actually like how it was pretty straightforward, with Ayacho as the leader of H!P taking charge of it. For me it's more about the lottery itself and who gets lucky, instead of the gimmicks. Hamachan was ok, but it felt a bit overdone with Momohime last year so I understand why they ditched it.
