Which group or soloist do you like best in Hello!Project??
17 Dec 2003, 21:09 #2
I hate to admit it, but I kinda find Minimoni annoyingly enjoyable. Actually, they are great for kids and surprisingly teaches kids JPN culture, geography, and a slew of JPN subjects.

The whole Hello Project confuses the hell out of me. I know about Morning Musume and Mini Moni. Those bands are decent enough. I prefer the older Musume to the newer stuff, it's just weak now.
Anyway for a novice like myself when it comes to hello project bands, can you please re-edit your opening post, Gomaki and list all of the hello project groups if you don't mind.
Thanks

Gomattou - The soloist group (oxymoron?)
Inaba Atsuko - Not sure if she is actually soloist, never heard a single from her but she is not in any group.

you're refering to the group name??oxymoron?because it's actually just parts of the members name's put together in one word :D

Inaba,a looong tima ago,but i'm not sure at all,didn't she used to be a part of some group calle TC&Bomber (or something like that)

Oxymoron as in they're soloists but are in a group.

Yeah I heard about T&C Bomber but never heard any of their songs yet and I'm assuming that group is no more.
18 Dec 2003, 07:49 #14
i have never been acquainted with any morning musume stuff except when i watch yan papa (goto maki) but seeing this now, I think i should start watching. ;)

they're all so cute :)
18 Dec 2003, 09:31 #15
All so cute! I really like those pictures in the kimonos.
So far I only caught bit and pieces of them on MS and the Utaban episodes I downloaded... and I must agree I'm rather confused with all the changing of the line-ups. If you ask me... I would say Ayaya and Nacchi (is that what people called Abe Natsumi?) are kawaii... pretty too! :mrgreen:
18 Dec 2003, 10:32 #16
Yeah it took me about a month to figure out the groups, sub groups and ever changing groups then another month to figure out the past groups and generations and learn their names :google:

But now that I have got a grip on its quite fun to see what new stuff Tsunku comes up with. At the least the changes never make H!P from going stale.
18 Dec 2003, 11:52 #19
yeah!!mikitty and ayaya piccies :D
TC&Bomber,indeed is no more,but you're right ruroshin..Inaba is still doing stuff,someone said she was in 11 water this year :D
I'm adding two more groups (2 shuffles)
-3nin matsuri (ishikawa,kago & matsuura)
-SALT5(matsuura,kago,abe natsumi,maeda yuki,ogawa)

PS,if you want to see funny momusu stuff,try and find some ayaka surpise english lessons :D especially the ones with tsuji
