New MAMESHIBA tv ep

some days ago they announced a collab with SEGA, merchandise of the group was going to be included as prizes in their amusement parks

so this time the members can't go home until they collect all the members plushies

 

[Stan BiSH]

Mameshiba No Taigun is going to hold a live stream related to their 1st album



it starts in 15 hours, is going to be streaming here

Her eyes disappear when she smiles just like Aina, so the name Ainastar is very fitting

 

[Idol Killer]

 

[Stan BiSH]

sounds nice, kinda weird that it when unreleased until now
also i was wondering why the logo of TBS was there but then i recalled that here it stands for Tokyo BiSH SHINE

i can feel the "Aina's little sister" energy

btw is nice that WAgg are finally getting the spotlight for once, it never make any sense to me why they were neglected this long

I really wanna hear the full version, it has an anime OP feel to it

btw is nice that WAgg are finally getting the spotlight for once, it never make any sense to me why they were neglected this long

yeah she's adorable
and WAgg getting more attention is really great after so long

Mameshiba No Taigun released a visual of their album "MAMEJOR!"



they also released a digital single "ONEGAiKiSSME"


that stream they announced? well actually i'm still not sure what it was

i think Kuro chan was singing songs from their future album but they also released a mini MV for the song, it starts at 18:40




Hanae looks great with blue hair!

Catching up on some things. That stream seemed like a giant troll until the girls came in at the end I have a hard time believing that Kuro-chan really lives in that apartment. I feel like he rents it so he can look like a loser whenever they do things like this, but actually lives in a nicer place. As far as the perf of "Please Kiss Me", I'm here for Hanae's blue hair! I love how upbeat and happy this group and their songs are (most of the time). Please Kiss Me is so playful and quirky. I'm glad they're continuing to go in this direction.

I was reading through some of the YouTube comments and one user posted this:

"Kuro loves Idols and supports allot of them, but I've seen allot of people quitting because they couldn't sell."

I take it as meaning that some fans have given up on Mameshiba because of their sales, but I've never understood this mentality. You become a fan of a group or artist because you like their music and how they make you feel, not how many singles they sell. There are people that only follow super popular groups because they can brag about their achievements, but that's pretty shallow. Anyway, I might have misunderstood that users comment.

BiSH are going to be the January cover of NYLON JAPAN GUYS

normally there is not much to discuss about magazine appearances but this one? this one is different

• BiSH special is going to be 38 pages long
• the theme of the shoot is "ICON FOREVER", BiSH members style is going to be inspired by singers, actors, comedians
• 200 questions about their past, present and future are going to be answered by each member (for a total of 1,200 questions!)

thisis amazing, is also going to include 2 posters of BiSH so this is easily their best feature in any magazine

Damn, I'm probably going to have to use a proxy service for this. Normally I'd pass, but the posters make it a must buy.

The people who quit are those people who have the kpop mentality, they only care about the views/sales

Mom is underrated in terms of prettiness

i recall that right before their debut Watanabe did the same thing with EMPiRE, people wanted to know how they sounded so he released 2 of their songs for free... except that he was the one singing hnah:

i think he does live there, every now and then i check his twitter and he has lots of pictures of him in the same house/apartment

to me the only dissapointing part of the video was that i wanted more shoots of Hanae and Kaede in the same frame, i think Hanae's short blue hair contrast well with Kaede's long red hair, i also want to see the other members with new hairstyles too


btw is barely November yet they already started activities for the album (which isn't going be released until January) knowing this i do feel that Avex are going to put a lot of effort in the promotions, i just wish they also uploaded the MV without the stream, otherwise is kind of a bother to make a playlist of their MVs

when they debuted people thought that they were the next big thing so they jumped in the bandwagon without really being interested in them,
i do have to say that is weird how some of those people are still around because while Mameshiba has a lot of potential at this point is clear that their next "steps" are going to be one at the time


in this interview with Natalie.mu the members talked about the initial success of Restart and how they were scared of becoming just a "one hit wonder"

natalie.mu

but they have the right mindset, the circumstances of their debut were special and there was never an easy path to success, the only way is to work hard

on topic, i haven't been tracking their sales/charts lately but AAA sold better than Rocketstart or Daijoubu sunrise, what is hurting Mameshiba's sales is the lack of "On person" activities, but they are still improving anyways

 

[Stan BiSH]

The people who quit are those people who have the kpop mentality, they only care about the views/sales

unfortunately this isn't exclusive to just one country or just one genre, it is a pretty common thing to see not only in Korea but also Japan and even in the west, it can't be helped, some people are just like that

to be honest i don't mind this much because i knew that a lot of people were initially only interested thanks to MONSTER IDOL being broadcasted on a popular channel, i find it more concerning the people that are still expecting them to sell like AKB or other top tier groups, Mameshiba are doing pretty well for a rookie group but some people are still setting the bar too high for them...

semi ot but Kohaku published their line up

【会見レポート】「紅白」会見で初出場10組が意気込み、SixTONESは「ジャニーさんにもお伝えしたい」（コメントあり / 写真20枚）

本日11月16日に東京・NHK放送センター101スタジオにて「第71回NHK紅白歌合戦」の出場者発表会見が行われた。

i mean this is Babymetal first time! and they are still more popular than BiSH so the chances were pretty low, still, it can't hurt dreaming

that said i have hopes for next year

The cover art for the プロパガンダ and PROPAGANDA best-of albums are here!

Done by an illustrator called FACE, he's uses minimalist styles in his usual artwork but curiously it's missing his signature "face" from his other work. He's done collabs with UNIQLO and Tower Records before so it's pretty cool to see him do it with BiS.

(His signature face btw:

)

Looks like somethings happening in December 3, and I think it's BiSH related because the website is in the description
im always scared of what's gonna happen when they do shit like this, they even made a youtube and twitter account for it

 

[Quixoticed]

BiSH's Twitter retweeted this. Another WACK x avex partnership? Link in that Twitter account directs to BiSH's official page with a timer, so that's intriguing too.

I like that people are starting to speculate so much in the comments section. Definitely something to do with BiSH since even the Twitter page retweeted it.

I get anxious when they do shit like this
