post your predictions and speculations for h!p in 2022, and feel free to reflect on past predictions if you want

my speculations from last year, correct in green, incorrect in red, anything else in yellow, comments marked with a slash -

i don't have many predictions for next year tbh
 
morning:

• rio superpush
• more 15ki push in general
• god i want a mei anime tie in so bad like verilian's mentioned
• another graduation but i don't know who
• with the way things have been going i don't see the group reverting back to a trio front with everyone else as backing vocals, i can see them pushing a couple girls more post-maagrad but maybe lines and screentime will stay as somewhat balanced as they are now. though it's definitely wishful thinking considering morning's track record with this

angerme:

• more turnover that ufp continues to try to mitigate by adding more members
• continued 9ki push
• someone in 9ki gets a photobook
• album maybe

juice=juice:

• new members grow in popularity
• ichika continues to show fans that she's on a honorin level of good at everything
• god please no more grads
• reirei and riai take up more singing lines (this is just my flimsy hope that ruru won't be run into the ground next year)
• album

tsubaki factory:

• they continue to ride their 2021 momentum but probably not anything spectacular in terms of growth
• graduations of first gen members (though i hope not)
• i can see them getting 2 singles if ufp wants to keep up the momentum but i don't have much faith that ufp wants anything but the opposite of outside growth for their groups

beyooooonds:

• one single. that is all
• yeah sorry to be a doomer but i don't have much hope for them anymore lol
• more photobooks
• another stage play
• maybe increased youtube/tiktok activities? anything more than blogs and instagram during the drought is all i ask for

ocha norma:

• decently successful debut, triple a-side single
• i'd predict their concept but i don't really have a vision for it besides what i'd want for them personally. the covid/internet thing they have going is kinda interesting though
• kirara or madoka for leader
• no solidified center/face of the group, probably rotating between 2-3 members instead

kenshuusei:

• someone who's been around for a while leaves
• mifu debut (PLEASE)
• maybe with ochan's debut the focus on the kss from the last couple of years decreases a bit, but i don't see harodori ending or anything

apologies if a thread for this already exists, but i just did one of these sorters since we're close to the end of the year, and i thought it'd be fun to post here

 

 

some sorter sites-

16be.at (in japanese, also the one i used above)
ahelloprojectfan.github.io

hello-project.github.io (this one is manual)

i know there's the unreleased h!p songs thread but i mean stuff as in like, really obscure songs that'll probably never see the light of day ever. like those 2 lilpri days that never got released and maachan's song that she deleted. there probably isn't much out there that's known in the fandom but i'm curious about it so uhh, if anyone knows any obscure unreleased stuff feel free to post lol

Unit Song on SKE48's new single: Change Your World


so i originally found out about hayashi mirei a bit after getting into 48g in late 2019, when ske48's 10th generation was announced, and mirei's name was making the rounds because she was born in 2009, and thus the youngest member in not only ske48, but all of 48g. and of course as i like to say 24/7 here that made me feel ancient, but i thought she was adorable and kept her in my mind since i wanted to see how she'd grow as a member and everything (and well, i didn't have an ske oshi and she was a good contender lol). recently ske announced a new single with jurina as center for her graduation, and an entire group senbatsu, so this was mirei's first senbatsu! i was really happy and looking forward to seeing her in the mv, and though she wasn't really visible (as far as i could tell lol) i was surprised to find out she had been included on a b-side called "change your world", in a unit formed by jurina with members she saw as the future of ske. and i was so so happy to see jurina herself considered mirei as a future star!! mirei is so stunning in the mv (she's the tiny one with the high ponytail and shorts), she looks awesome and gets a lot of screentime, and also gets to show off her awesome dancing skills. so all in all, i really love mirei and you should too LOL

i found this group in early 2020, and i instantly loved them! i'm still kinda iffy that the girls are so young but i think they're super cute, and their whole magical girl concept is just so adorable. they have good music too, i think they mostly perform covers but they release original singles every now and then and it's surprisingly really good. hana flower got me into them, idk what genre it is exactly but i think it's actually close to dream pop and it's really catchy and calming. i even bought the cd some time after discovering them bc i just really wanted the song in better quality, and i'm happy to have it!
