Does anyone know if someone is translating the TsunkuxFukumura interview? I'll do it, if not.

    I don't think I've seen anyone talk about doing a full translation!

From now on complaining about who doesn't get a PB is an AMeRiKa fans only event, everyone else go home.

Would there be any interest in doing like an H!O Secret Santa/Gift Exchange? Not for physical items, just like graphics, fan art, nice letters, etc. Just something fun to do as a (very) small community in a weird year.

    Cool, I think I'll start setting up something and update my status when it's ready for sign-ups.

Let's all keep Yasumoto Ayaka in our thoughts, as she has been diagnosed with lymphoma. Ebichu has gone through enough.

As a general reminder to everyone and no one in particular, please be respectful when having discussions, especially over controversial subjects. Passion is fine, but name-calling and personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Tenso finally added DHL so now I can get my idol goods that have been stuck in limbo for 6 months!

    At this point they've waived so many fees for holding onto it because of no shipping options, it's practically paid for itself. And DHL is pretty fast, so it all works out.

I've posted the translation for the first part of the next entry in natalie's 2010s idol history series, for those who are interested.

Is it just me or is it weird to encounter a big idol fan who knows next to nothing about wota?
Aug 29 2020 02:58 PM
  • Lurkette's Photo
    Lurkette
    Right? And it's not like they're a passive follower. They're in it, but they seem to have no clue about how wota spend their money or what supporting idols looks like in Japan.

    That's surprising, how long have they been a fan?

    I want to say I've known them since 2016, maybe? They mostly follow Stardust but they're also very familiar with AKB so I'm not really sure how they avoided wota and merch and photos to this extent. They suggested that only wealthy people would spend ‎¥‎500 yen apiece on photos of idols, which is absolutely not the case.

Just so everyone knows, a lot of the spam comes in while I'm asleep, so if it takes a second for it to be removed, I'm probably asleep. I'll remove it when I'm awake.

    Nah, it's fine. I almost always see it because the forum is so inactive, but it doesn't hurt for users to be proactive.

I am open for translation requests, as a reminder. Check out my thread in the General Hello!Project section to send in something!

    Nope! I outlined the general rules in the thread but no, it can be for anything.

Sometimes you have a parent who is the kind of person to order you a toilet and won't tell you so then you just get a bunch of random calls from a freight shipper about a toilet you never ordered but there it is.

What's a term or phrase that we use a lot in the idol fandom that you would have wanted (or still want) clarity on when you first got into the fandom?

    It doesn't matter if it's group-specific. Honestly with the bigger companies these terms become standard for the industry so thank you for the input!

    I remember in the very beginning it took me a minute to catch on to things like oshi / kamioshi and DD / hako-oshi.
