    It's hilarious how blatantly "biased" shows like Girls Planet 999 are. The Chinese and Japanese girls will get torn to pieces for being "bad" but when one of the Korean girls performs bad (one particularly stood out to be for being a horrible singer) the judges still have nothing but praise for them

      I expect nothing less after PD48 & everything that came along with it.

    The game "Idol Manager" has finally release on Steam. It might be region locked (Germany, China) but a friend can gift it to you or you buy it on itchio and get a Steam key too. It's fun! I've been waiting for such a game for a long time.

    I'm getting so annoyed by many of the groups I follow using face shields instead of medical masks during talk or photo events. I get that they don't want to completely cover the face of the idol, but they might just as well use no masks at all with how pointless those shields are. And it's not like the group members don't rehearse and perform together without masks anyways...

      That makes me mad too!, Ugh at least they should give them member color mask if they don't want them to lose the idol image

      Member color face masks, maybe with some personal touches, would actually be really cute.

      Yeah exactly they could go full capitalism on it and produce masks as merch for their group (BABYMETAL actually did that). What baffles me the most is that this is happening in Japan, a country that had legitimized the use of masks in daily situations for god knows how long.

    You ever get emotional thinking about all the idols and groups who randomly vanished or quit and then we just never heard of them ever again despite them being promising? Just me? Okay

      I was thinking that yesterday, it's really sad to see some talented idols dissapear!

    It's really depressing when, after a few years, you're looking up the names of idols from small disbanded groups and they never appeared again. A tiny percentage might have ended up elsewhere in the business or at least have a personal Twitter or Instagram. But in most cases they are just gone and nowhere to be found. Makes me sad.

      At some point these girls were so aspiring and brought happiness to so many people. They worked hard, they grew and gained fans. Now it's like they never even existed. It's all gone and I can feel memories fade as well. Maybe I'm just selfishly nostalgic or overly attached. But for me, it makes me get philosophical about transience.

      It honestly feels like Hinata has been doing this for a decade and then I remember she's still just 12.

    1) I'm so glad Cuca decided to open up and talk about all the issues she has 2) How much worse does it need to get till those managers finally realize they're working with human beings? This is ###### abuse and I don't want to hear anyone seriously defend this shit like "that's how the business works"

      This is why messages coming from idol songs such as 1oku 3zenman Sou Diet Oukoku are kinda important. But back in the day the song got written off as "a song about diets or something", and even Harowota didn't seem to understand it and to this day still leave comments saying "after all thin Zukki is the best or thin Maasa is the best". I'm not trying to make this to be about H!P but one of the reasons I really love that song is because an idol producer addressed...

      that side of Japanese society. I feel so sad for Cuca, I really enjoyed her idol cover years so it's even sadder to see her go through this. Didn't this happen with MomoClo's Takagi Reni many years ago too? With that public weighing thing they made. It's just heartbreaking.

      I hope STU management doesn't punish her for speaking out. If they did that will be my last shread of respect for AKBGroup gone.

    So glad Techi decided to quit instead of just dying in the group at some point

      The only surprising thing about this is that it didn't happen much sooner.

      Altough it's good for the group, I think this way of leaving is so inappropiate, I mean at least some graduation stage. And now they have to re-announce the senbatsu for the 9th single.

      It's not like anyone cared about her well-being when they overworked her several times so why should she now yet again do something that's bad for her for a group of people that didn't care for her.

    Tfw you send your over 10 years worth of idol merch collection to a friend in Japan for him to sell it because you need the money and then DHL manages to lose the package which on top of all cost you 100 bucks shipping fee too...

      On the bright side I can confirm that you can live for hours and days despite the constant feeling that you're suffocating.

      I usually find a few minutes of primal screaming helps with the suffocating feeling, but that really sucks, I'm sorry that happened.

      I need some damn confirmation! That girl was definitely Riho but will she permanently be a member?

    Don't even remember how many years it has been since I was interested in MM related things. Great new members, great idea with the stream.

    Made a new discovery called Hinata Nanase of a very indie idol group. There's not much to find out about them and especially her. Doesn't she look mixed to you? Like half Russian or something? Real cutie https://twitter.com/hashtag/七瀬日向?f=images

      I mean, she's literally sitting inside a cake. Why make such connection when it's a huge amount of frosting and it's not only on her thigh. Doesn't look like that at all. Might as well say the fork tines are phallic. It's obviously an erotic photo but it seems a bit silly to me to point this part out lol.

    Hahaha Blackpink tickets for Berlin of course already sold out because resale ticket mafia but the most hilarious part is they started at 88 Euro like how is anyone willing to pay this much.

      Yes definitely take it with a grain of salt. I still found it interesting enough to share.

      The (very high) possibility that AKS cares more about it's own reputation and their money than about their members makes me sick.
