Yeah, it's usually a selection of Kenshuusei being given a song to perform during a tour. It's never a guarantee, but it's always fun to pay attention to them since a lot of the Kenshuusei that participated in the past went on to debut.

That is true They don’t necessarily debut in the groups whose tours they took part in as challenge acts, but there is a strong possibility that the Hello!Pro Kenshuusei members taking part as the challenge acts for this tour may at least end up in a Hello!Project group even if it isn’t Morning Musume. That all being said though I wouldn’t mind if Kudo Yume (the Hello!Pro Kenshuusei Hokkaido members are one of the challenge acts) ended up being one of the new 15th gen members when they’re eventually announced

Glad to know they add opening/guest/challenge acts to all the days in the tour.
I can see that Kobushi Factory and Tsubaki Factory are in the guest acts, so they perform after the concert starts.

For those who can't read the kanji:

 

The regular KSS participating are Ono, Yonemura, Hashisako, Matsunaga, Tamenaga, and Shutto

The Hokkaido KSS will be taking their place for the Hokkaido show, sans Kawano Minori.

Harunan tweeted about the announcement:

She was very surprised to find out that Kobushi Factory are going to be the guest act for the first 2 days of the tour which take place in her hometown of Hachioji. Considering that her favourite Kobushi Factory member is going to be performing in her hometown for 2 days it’s quite possible that Harunan might go to see one of the concerts either on March 16th or on March 17th

From JPLOP

from the FC executive newsletter

Morning Musume. '19 Concert Tour Spring ~BEST WISHES!~ FINAL will be a 2 day Nippon Budokan concert on June 4th and June 5th (Tuesday and Wednesday).



Gotta be the day they announce 15th gen members.

That makes 4 Budokan concerts in June for H!P.

reminder, Nippon Budokan will undergo renovations for a year starting September 2019 for the Olympics. Last chance to see a concert at Budokan, because after June it will be the H!P Summer concerts.

Come to think of it, they could probably fill YokoAri in fall if someone of the most popular members graduates, or with a double graduation...

[Mikansei Girl 17]

They will probably announce 15th gen members on June 4th or June 5th.

@core2quad

Thanks for the update I’ve added the Budokan dates to the first post

@Juandalyn

Unfortunately it’s more likely that the fall tour will also end with a Budokan final. I was talking to someone recently about why the Budokan renovations hadn’t started yet when they’d been announced to start earlier than planned and it seems they’re not renovating it after all as the venue’s been downgraded. That being said I haven’t seen an official announcement about so I don’t know if they still plan on renovating the building anyway regardless of the venue being downgraded as a venue for the 2020 Olympics or if UFP plan on holding any big concerts including concert tour finals in bigger venues such as Yokohama Arena and Saitama Super Arena in future.

[Juandalyn]

^Ah, that's interesting to know, thanks.

Maachan could easily sell out YokoAre imo.

Maachan could easily sell out YokoAre imo.

if she was graduating yes, at least now.

Could Yoyogi National Stadium be a potential tour final venue after Budokan undergoes renevation? Yoyogi seats 13,000+. Not that much difference capacity for Budokan (which is 14,000+). Yokohama Arena has 17,000 capacity.

Just like previous years the gelato shop near Olympus Hall Hachioji is releasing Morning Musume inspired gelato flavours:

https://twitter.com/...3872015360?s=21

This year’s Morning Musume gelato flavours are as follows:

Fukumura Mizuki - Strawberry Sorbet
Ikuta Erina - Kiwi Sorbet
Ishida Ayumi - Yomogi
Sato Masaki - Berry Rare Cheese
Oda Sakura - Yogurt Blueberry
Nonaka Miki - Murasaki Bowl
Makino Maria - Sakura
Haga Akane - Blood Orange
Kaga Kaede - Franboise
Yokoyama Reina - Alfonso Mango
Morito Chisaki - Golden Rule of Milk

Iikubo Haruna - Apricot
Michishige Sayumi - Dragonfruit Banana

They’ve apparently changed most of the flavours to best represent each of the girls’ member colours, although it’s going to take me an extremely long time to get used to the Sakura gelato flavour not representing Sakura anymore. Also included this year are gelato flavours inspired by guest act Kobushi Factory:

Hirose Ayaka - Avacado Milk
Nomura Minami - Ramune
Hamaura Ayano - Rose Salt
Wada Sakurako - Nishio no Matcha
Inoue Rei - Blueberry Milk

For anyone who’s interested these gelato flavours will be available for fans to buy during the Morning Musume Best Wishes concert dates at Olympus Hall Hachioji on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th March

New tour goods.

[ajma93632]

Less than 2 hours for the start of the tour, I can't wait for annoucements like the new members and of course new songs (even if they don't announce a new single). And if somebody annoounces graduation, well, I hope she graduates next tour. I think we all deserve a tour which doesn't end in a graduation ceremony since we already had them the last 3 times.
