The Official WACK Thread ~ Home of BiSH, BiS, EMPiRE, MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN, GO TO THE BEDS, PARADISES, and WAgg

[Stan BiSH]

ExWHYZ, BiS, GANG PARADE, MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN and ASP are going to play the concert together, is going to be on late November at the Makuhari Messe Hall

(although WAgg aren't there, also no word on the boy group)

i guess this is to prove that WACK is much more than just BiSH, hoping we get to see some nice interactions between the groups

i forgot to check lately but seems that ExWHYZ are pretty active in TikTok





wachuwachu

and why there are so many videos of Mikina? well that's because these days her enthusiasm is at 1000%


and if you search "mikina_ExWHYZ 1000%" on twitter there are dozens of tweets acknowledging that

-

ExWHYZ announced a fan project, people that buy the fan club limited edition of their debut album are going to be able to enter a lottery where the winners are going to be teach by the ExWHYZ's dance club the choreography of "Wanna Dance" and on November 22 they are going to be invited on stage at the Zepp Haneda to perform the song along Mayu and Now


you may get screamed at by them

if you perform half-heartedly there is a possibility that you will be instructed in a harsh tone that you cannot think of as coming from an idol

granted if you are a masochist that must be a good selling point

Now is going to be the director

ASP announced a 24 hour long concert "24 hours ANARCHY ANARCHY SHiT SHiT PARTY PEOPLE"



in 2016 BiSH did the "24 Hour Party BiSH"

24 Hour Party BiSH

24 Hour Party BiSH was a live event held by BiSH to commemorate their major label debut. As the name suggests, the concert lasted for 24 hours, starting at 6pm on May 2nd and ending at 7pm on May 3rd, 2016. This is the last standalone BiSH event to feature Hug Mii, who announced her graduation...

wackidol.fandom.com

in 2019 EMPiRE held their "EMPiRE presents TWENTY FOUR HOUR PARTY PEOPLE" as a send off to YUKA who graduated from the group the same day




also in 2019 BiS2 held a 69 (nice) hour concert

BiS Nari no 69 Fes ~ Are you ready to 69H?

BiS Nari no 69 Fes ~ Are you ready to 69H? (BiSなりの69フェス。～Are you ready to 69H？) was a "69-hour" live event held by BiS from March 18th to March 22nd, 2018. It was a sequence of consecutive performances over five different venues. The event was split into seventeen parts, with priority admission...

wackidol.fandom.com

worth mention that none of these concerts were truly 24 or 69 hours since they took 6 / 8 hour breaks between performances
so while tough still not something that counts as modern slavery

also bringing this back since it ended in the previous page, tomorrow is going to be the release of ASP's major debut single "Hyper Cracker"

it was ASP's tour final






ASP are going to tour with "the soap girls"


so yeah, that's a thing


CCCCCC posted fan art of ASP (it counts as "fan" if a member did it?)

 

[Stan BiSH]

Now posted a new update of her Scawaii series

i always forget about this but Now also is a regular of the B.L.T magazine, she runs a series called "やみつきガール"

 

[Stan BiSH]

i believe these weren't posted yet?










both BiSH and ASP's latest singles went on sale on the 31 we should get some numbers in a few days, i keep forgetting to update the albums / singles sales

 

[Stan BiSH]

new Usagi Tsukino's selfies

these days seems that she is now aware that her moles are a huge charm point for fans, i legitimately think they are pretty unique

 

[Stan BiSH]

Mikina and Now started TikTok accounts





she got called out by the ExWHYZ account because of her bio



this is what she put

My name is Mikina from ExWHYZ, I'm in a group with a hard-to-remember name

i mean she has a point

in any case she says to have plans to be very active there, i do believe Mikina has the potential to do pretty well in TikTok

Now also started her account "nowkoro0"




both Mikina and Now launched their accounts at the same time, the other members don't have one yet but they are probably going to start theirs soon

 

[Stan BiSH]

ASP's 24 hours concert was yesterday, it was live streamed on Nico but i forgot

the "GOING GOING wack" uploaded several videos from the live stream so worth checking

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClogaZK0bKVC1r8IvETKUSw/videos

speaking of ASP. i keep getting surprised by how short CCCCCC is for reference Watanabe is 165cm / 5'5, she is 20 btw so definitely not getting taller than that

 

[Stan BiSH]

the final concert of EMPiRE's last tour is going to get a DVD / Blu Ray release 「元EMPiREなりのラストツアーFINAL」

i'm not surprised since before the concert people were already asking for a release

• Normal and Limited Edtion
• Both versions come with either a DVD or Blu Ray, 2 CDs and a Photobook
• Limited Edition comes with a signed poster by a member and a Cheki / Polaroid picture

i'm not sure of the details but some versions of the limited edition are going to include pieces of one their uniforms

these uniforms are the ones from "the GREAT JOURNEY" which they used in their final concert

 

[Stan BiSH]

well that's the kind of content i was expecting from Mikina


both her and Now keep their word and have been pretty active in TikTok





Mayu did a IG livestream, she streamed the game Momotaro Dentetsu / 桃鉄



Usagi Tsukino visited Mayu some days ago and played the game together



also according to Usagi

When I'm playing games i can't help but get unbelievably foul-mouthed. I really want to do something about it.

okay, now they really need to do a live stream together

i can't find much info on this game, seems to be some Mario Party-esque game

 

[Stan BiSH]

well...





doesn't seems like something to celebrate

Watanabe and MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN announced the "WE MUST CHANGE" project

In December 7 the group is going to release their final single "MUST CHANGE"

the single is going to be released in multiple versions, one for each member, the member whose version sells the most is going to get a solo debut while the member or members who sell the least are going to be stripped of their rank and send to an audition camp to participate as trainees

on December 12 they are going to hold an audition camp for new members (unclear how many members they are planning to add), the MAMESHiBA members with the lowest sales of "MUST CHANGE" are going to joint the camp as trainees

on December 17 MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN are holding their last concert with the current system “WE MUST CHANGE TOUR FiNAL”, no one knows what's going to happen next


since a weeks ago i've been saying how strange is that they stopped updating MAMESHiBA TV, i knew something what's up, this situation reminds me of what happened to BiS2 back in December 2018, Watanabe announced a new system for the group and send the members with the lowest individual sales of their latest single to participate in the audition camp

basically it was just a "kind" way for Watanabe to tell some members to get the fuck out, in the case of BiS2 the members were really close friends so they never let Watanabe had his way and instead got together and announced that all of them were quitting the group in support of each other (even the members that weren't at risk of getting kicked out)

sales updates

ASP's "Hyper Cracker"

first week sales: 19,591 copies

BiSH's "Sayonara Saraba"

first week sales: 18,309 copies

BiS "Hey boy hey girl"

first week sales: 12,524 copies
second week sales: 6,048 copies
third week sales: 4,041
fourth week sales: unknown
fifth week sales: unknown
sixth week sales: 2,440 copies
seventh week sales: 1,969 copies
eighth week sales: 3,091

total sales so far: 30113+ copies

i believe this is ASP's highest sales week so far

BiSH's singles sales are lower that usual simply because they are holding not monthly but almost bi weekly releases (when you factor Aina / Ayuni / Chittiii's solos, etc)

BiS's "Hey boy hey girl" keeps selling well, definitely the 3rd gen's highest selling release so far

they look pretty good, the GP members usually only wear colorful uniforms so is refreshing they went all black this time

seems next week is going to be available for download / streaming, i wonder if the song is going to be "different" too, i'm looking forward to it either way

 

[Stan BiSH]

today is "Orchestra" 6th anniversary! to this day is still my favorite BiSH's song




"Orchestra" was BiSH's breakthrough that propelled the group to stardom, it was thanks to it that media started paying attention to the group and discovered they were one of the best acts of the recent years, one can just wonder what would be of WACK if it weren't for BiSH

even without this song i still think the group would be as popular as they are today, BiSH discography is really good and "Promise the star" performed as well as "Orchestra", the song still deserves recognition

i wrote a post about it that ended having nothing to do with it

APPRECIATION - Today is "Orchestra" 6th anniversary! BiSH's breakthrough song that took them from a small indie act to one of the biggest groups in Japan

more than 5 years of being their fan and this is still my favorite BiSH song, i wouldn't necessarily call it their best song because across their vast and diverse discography it would be really hard to even make a top 5 what i want to talk about is the impact it had in the members and fans, we...

they are going to release two sets of models, the first set seems to be based on "Promise the star"

another of the features is an original manga by Tetsuji Kanie, is going to be based on a mix of real life events and fiction, the story is going to be set in one of WACK's audition camps

Tetsuji Kanie

Looking for information on Tetsuji Kanie? On MyAnimeList you can learn more about their role in the anime and manga industry.

they plan to launch a monthly essay serialization, via an online vote they are holding a contest among different members of WACK to pick the winner of the spot, these are the members that submitted an essay

unfortunately the magazine is only going to be released in physical format, the content of the magazine is going to be keep a secret until release and subscriptions are only available in either 6 or 12 months plans

here a place holder of how is going to look

something funny is that Kobunsha also publishes the magazine "bis" which is unrelated to the group BiS
