I am curious to know why Tsubaki Factory Live Tour 2018 has a word "春(Haru)"(means Spring) but the Kobushi Factory Live Tour 2018 does not.
Does it means that Tsubaki Factory may have 1 more solo live tour later in Autumn and Kobushi Factory only have solo 1 live tour in 2018?

Maybe. But it could be for no reason at all. Could also be that Tsubaki's tour (as of the current schedule) stops firmly during Spring, but Kobushi's almost (not quite technically, but close enough) extends into early Summer.

It's a pretty cool title. It's their first tour, so having "hatsukoi" as the title make sense. It's the main track of their first major single, their first MV to reach 1M of views and it mean "first love".

Tsubaki Factory held their one-man show "Tsubaki Factory one-man live ~First Blossom~" at Differ Ariake report

 

アップフロントリンク·2018年3月5日(月)

Tsubaki Factory held their one-man show "Tsubaki Factory one-man live ~First Blossom~" on Feb 22, their major debut anniversary, with their 3rd single "Teion-Yakedo/Shunrenka/I Need You ~Yozora no Kanransha~" released on Feb 21.

Differ Ariake is their memorial venue where they held an anniversary event for their major debut single one year ago. Before a group interview, fruit bouquet was served by staffs and Mao Akiyama was yelling, "Looks so tasty!".

This single "Teion-Yakedo/Shunrenka/I Need You ~Yozora no Kanransha~" got no.2 in Orion daily chart on Feb 21. Risa Ogata, a sub leader, told "I'm sure this is good first step in this year. We've got celebrated by many people after we got "50th Yusen Award" and "59th record award" last year at the end of last year. We feel pressure, but would like to improve more."

In the group interview, they talked about Pyeongchang Olympic. Yumeno Kishimoto talked about Miho Takagi from women's national team, who won a gold medal in pursuit, is listening to songs by her favorite artists. She told "I would like her to listen to Tsubaki Factory someday since we have many positive songs such as "Just Try!". Ami Tanimoto, who is from Hokkaido as same as women's national team in curling, told "I would like to go this wave with them." Riko Yamagishi, a leader, as a representative of Tsubaki Factory, cheered women's national team in figure skating. "Please try your best with a jump as really high as 'sunrise jump' from 'Hatsukoi Sunrise'.

The show this day was sold out. The show stated with 1,100 fans from "I Need You ~Yozora no Kanransha~". In the middle of the show, a celebration message from Saki Shimizu, an advisor of Hello! Project, an ex member of Berryz Kobo and was involved in Tsubaki Factory since their formation. was screened. Tsubaki Factory's very first live house tour was announced here.

When it's announced, the members fell on the floor and shouted "Lots of venues!" "The dates come soon!". Especially Mizuho Ono was moved and told with tears "We are so happy since we've longed for our tour for long time. We would like more people to Tsubaki Factory and try our best to be much more famous." Risa Ogata showed her tears and told "We haven't expected such nice announcement. We didn't want to cry this time (not like an anniversary event last year), but can't hold our tears." This tour starts from April 15 at Takasaki Club FLEEZ.

After this surprise, as another present for fans they performed a new song "Yuki no Planetarium", then "Teion Yakedo", the song best for this cold season among the tracks in their new single. In an encore, they raised fan's excitement to maximum with their major debut song "Hatsukoi Sunrise" and successfully closed the one-man show with 14 songs for 90 minutes.

We are the youngest group in Hello! Project and still immature, but try our best to be leading Hello! Project someday. We are pleased for our announcement of the tour. We would like to let many fans nationwide know us. Please support us! Thank you." - Riko Yamagishi, the leader of Tsubaki Factory

Tsubaki Factory has started their 2nd year. They will hold their release events nationwide with their major 3rd single "Teion-Yakedo/Shunrenka/I Need You ~Yozora no Kanransha~". In April their first live house tour will be held. In May around golden week the joint tour with Kobushi Factory will be held.

I'm so HYPED for this. If there's anything I want on the setlist then it's some of Berryz newer, EDM songs like 1-Oku 3-Senman Sou Diet Oukoku, or Ai wa Itsumo Kimi no Naka de. But it seems like Kobushi have already covered that one so it's less likely. Some C-ute songs like Bishoujo Shinri would be amazing too!

[YellowAccel]

Yeah, Bishoujo Shinri with Yumeno and Mizuho singing Maimi and Airi’s big parts would be pretty cool.

No, not those outfits

[oyasumenon]

I'm not a huge fan of these outfits either but the girls look cute nonetheless. I'm so excited! The t-shirts aren't too bad and I'm excited to see what kind of costumes they'll wear for the actual tour. I'm going to go broke buying the goods, especially considering that there's going to be a KobuTsubaki concert tour in May haha. Can't wait for the setlist!

[oyasumenon]

Tsubaki Factory announced a new song in this video! It's called "Happy Cracker". It was written and composed by Shōnan no Kaze's SHOCK EYE. What do you guys think? I really love the song and it's perfect to get the crowd pumped during a live tour! I'm so happy Tsubaki is getting so much quality things lately.


 

[IchVermisseDenSommer]

It's a great song. Really in love with how cute it sounds! Tsubaki strikes again

[patapataful]

So cute! Love the song, devnitely a live-hype song

Did anyone else saw Ami's breast dance?  

[core2quad]

It's a really happy song   
They will perform it live tomorrow
Will it be included in new album?

[YellowAccel]

Already two new songs ? Awesome. Tsubaki’s music continue to be flawless. It’s cure, fun, catchy, Saori, Mizuho and Saori and Mizuho. And let’s not forget Saori and Mizuho.

[core2quad]

^ Yep, there is also a song called Yuki no Planetarium performed previously in their One Man LIVE

[core2quad]

Happy...cracker? I'm assuming they don't know that "cracker" is a racist slur for white people, but that makes the title kind of funny. Not on the level of Ai-chan's, "I am a whore" t-shirt, but still.

[yuumaa]

Huh? P sure that’s only a thing in America.
A cracker is a type of firework or something that makes a loud *crack* noise, hence a cracker.
A HAPPY cracker is like... an explosion of happiness, which is an adorable concept!

[Fall]

It just made me want some s'mores, tbh.  Those are the happiest crackers.

 

I like that they're keeping the momentum going.  Too often once a group finishes up their primary debut run, things just sort of slow down while the girls stick to events and small venues.  I can see why they do it.  It just seems like in the modern era where a lot of your fans are being created by new media exposure, having that stream of content would be at least somewhat viable as an alternative to the traditional word-of-mouth and live house tours, especially when the parent company owns the label.
