I really like how their voices blend! It almost sounds like one person singing, which is interesting, lol. I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes. They have cute outfits.

^I agree, they sound really nice in unison.

I hope Tsunku would release Papachi, the song Tsunku recorded earlier for Tsuntube as a single under this girls.

They have actually performed infront of a LIVE audience during a recent festival in Tokyo. If I'm not mistaken this was in Yoyogi Park in Tokyo.

Shimizu Nami (profile)
Arita Ria (profile)
Aoshima Natsukoi (profile)

Takamiya Mei (profile)
Kaotan Kaori (profile)
Naruo Rio (profile)
Aikawa Ayano (profile)
Asakura Yuri (profile)
Morohoshi Azuna (profile)

They ranked as such in May.

Again, if I romanised wrong.. please correct me. I've never romanised before, and I'm bad at knowing which kanji is which when it comes to names..

I think the song in that live performance is actually way better than the one in the music video ^^; Looking forward to seeing more of this group though! I don't think they'll ever become as famous as H!P but it looks like they have a little bit of a following! The concept behind them is pretty cool too.

Im gonna follow them, it's interesting. Iwonder if tsunku ever looks at one of the girls and thinks hmm I should put her in H!p. I've been watching tsunku tube xo it would be easier to have a favorite and know more if I understood anything they said.

People were making fun of this previously but I've loved the idea of this cafe since I heard about it. It's like a video game come to life, otaku will be all over it.

They do work there from what I understood!
They have their practice room at the back. So it's like, workplace + practice at the same spot. Once they finish their shifts/before they start their shifts they can go there to practice

Thank you reina for the name list :D

and yes, they work there. Tsunku borrowed the concept from The Afilia Saga Magic Cafe chain. Tsunku's partner in the Akihabara Backstage Pass project is the creator/owner of the Afilia Saga Magic Cafe. You might know they also have their own idol unit, the Afila Saga East.
Tsunku wrote a song for them, Knee High Egoist.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHigNV9macc

While Afilia Saga's theme is "Mahou Shoujou" school, a school for Magical Girls, Akihabara Backstage Pass's theme is "becoming an idol" ( or something like that ).

No problem zam! Hope I didn't mess up the kanji too much. I think this idea is personally a great one, even if it's reminiscent of some other group, like some are complaining about. XD It's good experience for the girls, and hey, I'd love to have a cute girl that I adore take my order~ ;)

Afila Saga East... http://www.hello-onl...tyle_emoticons/hello-online/nosebleed.gif I'll have to keep an eye on them too. :lol:
But only second to Basochome, that is.

I knew that tsunku's backstage idol cafe members performed, but I did not know they were going to release anything!
Anyway, I really like how they sound. I expected that high pitched sort of cutesy singing you normally hear from idol groups, but they don't sound like typicals idols at all!

^This is true! And they're all on the older side for new idols. The ones listed are mostly 17-21 years old. (Some don't have years for their birthdays) Which is really awesome!

This episode of Tsuntube is a nice way to get to know some of the members.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW_TsqK0YHU

Their single is available on CDJapan.

Regular: http://www.cdjapan.c...l?KEY=BSPC-5002
Limited: http://www.cdjapan.c...l?KEY=BSPC-5001

Limited comes with the MV and a self-introduction video by the members (I pre-ordered this edition).

You might know they also have their own idol unit, the Afila Saga East.
Tsunku wrote a song for them, Knee High Egoist.


Tsunku was also involved with their "Mirai ga Watashi wo Matteiru" single.

People interested may also wish to check out this report on a visit to the Akihabara Backstage Pass Café around the time it opened: http://aidolmezase.b...lace-where.html
