BiSH holding auditions which is really not surprising I had a feeling it would happen
The members decided to do this themselves

according to the announcement the BiSH members founded the company with their own money, no mention of Watanabe being directly involved

being honest i don't think BiSH's success can be recreated, on the other hand they themselves started as BiS successor group so who knows

Watanabe is feeling nostalgic, he retweeted the announced from 2015



at the very least seems WACK are going to be involve with the new group


bringing this back since it ended in the previous page

also the wiki has a page for it already

AINA THE END did a series of personal interviews with Shueisha

Foq029haMAEuEQS



is better to read the interviews directly specially since there are tons of pictures that for some reason i can't link here, i'm still going to share some keypoints
  • Aina thought that BiSH would last forever and that even if she became a granny she still would be active in the group, on the other hand Momoko and Ayuni believed that the group was going to come to an end eventually, so there were different opinions between members
  • She confirms again that back in 2019 all the members agreed to disband the group but they didn't set a specific timeline, Watanabe was the one that proposed the disbandment
  • After hearing that Aina cried a lot and even became angry but she decided that she wanted to finish things without having regrets, now that the end is around the corner she feels sad by the amount of "finals" happening, for example the final choreography she does for the group, her final birthday as member of BiSH
  • Before BiSH Aina was part of several musical acts, a member of a dance unit, member of a R&B duo even a soloist but nothing came from it, she entered multiple vocal auditions but failed them, she never ever auditioned for an idol unit simply because she didn't felt she was the type of person that could be accepted into any of those groups, she shared how in school the popular girls would be called class idols / Madonnas but she was the type of person others would bully, for example they would make fun of the shape of mouth
  • Aina's father is a photographer and her mother was a former idol, the two may had been part of a band too, ever since she was little she liked dancing and was encouraged by her parents, she mentions how when she was younger she didn't got along that well with them but seems that changed now, not much ago her father came to visit her, after the performance he wanted her to go back home with him but Aina was set to appear in a TV show and thus couldn't go, her father jokingly told her how he lamented he couldn't convince the singer that just performed in Kouhaku Uta Gaussen to go with him, Aina was really happy after hearing that
  • On their debut she recalls how in their first music video they actually used real horse poop and how that night Watanabe and the others were really excited about their debut and were screaming and shouting that it was going to be a success
  • the members created the choreographs themselves and sometimes would disagree but only because they wanted to make BiSH better, sometimes in the dressing room there would be complete silence, she recalls how once Atsuko grabbed her by the neck (in a non violent way) other times Aina and Chittiii would cry together, Hug Mii was like older sister for her and would always listen to what Aina had to say, when Hug Mii announced she was leaving the group Aina felt devasted
-

there are two more parts, i'm going to check them later

in any case this was BiSH's debut song "Hoshi ga matataku yoru ni"




this wasn't included in the interview but i think it's still interesting to share

as stated above that stuff was actual horse poop, the cream like stuff is cake icing, the shoot for the video was incredibly dangerous since those parts when they are throwing stuff on the members faces were recorded in the back of a pickup truck that, because the members didn't fit, had to lower the door, they were also driving really fast (you can see them road in the background) so there was a risk of the members falling from it

unsurprisingly the one throwing shit to their faces was Watanabe, a really nice foreshadowing of things to come

this event was referenced in BiSH 2018 tour "BRiNG iCiNG SHiT HORSE TOUR"

2nd interview with Aina by Shueisha


  • She has cried after reading letters from fans, one she remembers in particular is one from a boy in high school who after hearing the news of her first solo tour went running to his mom and begged her to buy him a ticket to go see Aina, she also received one from a girl and another boy, she feels really grateful to heard how she positively impacted other people's lifes
  • Aina was bullied in school, one day she had her revenge by stuffing the hoodie of one of her bullies with grass and insects, the bully started screaming and crying but instead of feeling joy Aina felt sad for her, during their graduation the girl came and apologized to Aina for bullying her, now she is an stylist and Aina is in good terms with her
  • As an advice to her juniors, Aina says that she caused lots of trouble for both WACK and Avex but had she done things in a different way she wouldn't be where she is today
  • The things she wouldn't ever be able to throw away are the artists passes of M STATION (Japan's biggest TV music show), the tickets from their Fujikyu highland concert from last year since is BiSH's largest concert to date and finally her 11th notebook where she writes the choreographs, the previous 10 are in her parents house
  • Her new hobby is photography, particularly taking pictures of her dog
if anyone is curious about the bullying Aina suffered you should check this interview (they also have translations for other BiSH interviews)


here is the part

ーーThese are individual interviews, so I want to touch on things that happened in your past, so what was your life like when you were younger? What were you like in middle school?

Aina:
I was bullied like crazy.

ーーYou, too?!

Aina:
(laughs). Momoko was thrown in pools, Aina was chased up trees. We're bullied children.

ーーWhen was this?

Aina:
In middle school, the whole time. I was picked on every day. It was seriously quite difficult, but at that time I didn't care.

ーーWhere are you from?

Aina:
Osaka.

ーーWhat kind of child were you in elementary school?

Aina:
At the end of school every day, I'd ask, "Who will play with me today?!" But no one ever came to play. I've always thought I was some sort of genius.

ーーThe reaction to the invincible elementary schooler was bullying in middle school.

Aina:
They chased me up a tree, and like the top, boss-like kid stuffed grass into the hood of my jacket and told me to walk home like that. I don't know what the point of that was (laughs). Also, when boys would pass by the hall, these 4 girls would surround me and try to strip me. For some reason, I just laughed at that at the time. Thinking about it later, though, I was like, "What, that was awful." I think that's why I'm so insecure about taking my clothes off. So when the question was asked, "Will you take your clothes off for BiSH?" I ended up saying, "I won't." But then, strangely, I also said, "It's fine if it's just my nipples" (laughs).

ーーThis was every day?

Aina:
Yes. Also, some people from a different middle school would be outside the front gate, yelling, "Die!" at me.

ーーWas it because they were jealous of you?

Aina:
I don't know, but people at other schools hated me. Still, even though I was bullied, the people who liked me like me a whole lot, so I had both extremes of love and hate, which meant I didn't really have any acquaintances, on the surface. I was either a friend or an enemy.

ーーDid your friends help you out when you were bullied?

Aina:
They did. When the bullies would like try to squish my fingers in the door, they'd come and protect me by pushing them.​

final part of Aina's interview


  • Aina isn't sure what is going to be her next dream, until this point it was to see BiSH perform at the Tokyo Dome, after BiSH disbands she still wants to continue with her activities as AINA THE END but before wants to take a break, one of her ideas is to study in a foreign country
  • They asked her about her relationship with UK from Moroha and if she wants to be open about her love life, she says that because of all the support she has received from friends and fans her actual goal is to give and share that love back with everyone
  • They asked her if she plans to get married but currently she hasn't give the idea any thought, for now she wants to continue singing since that is her passion
  • She wants to visit London to see Koalas (London, Awaji not Britland), she also wants to improve her home skills like cooking, cleaning, once she cooked rice balls and shared them with the people at Avex... let's just say they weren't good, so she wants to learn how to cook and relax with the people she trust
  • Once she was in a station waiting for a friend when a man approached her and asked her what she was doing, she thought it was scary and was worried that he was going to take a picture and tell people "i met Aina in Osaka" so she left, she says that before BiSH she would hadn't pay any mind to it and that maybe he was actually a friendly person
  • The interviewer ask if it was a pickup attempt, Aina says he didn't recognized her so probably, she says that before BiSH she wouldn't had even noticed the gender of the person
  • About Watanabe, she thinks that he is a person that regardless of anything or everything is never going to leave her side, she knows of the complaints aimed at him but she doesn't share them, in some ways she see him more like a father figure than their producer, recently she was scolded by him and Aina felt she was talking with her dad
if anyone is curious about Aina's boyfriend, he is called UK both of them were part of a duet, they have been dating since around 2019

Mikina guested on "Night Brunch"




hopefully someone uploads her part since this is her first appearance on a variety show by herself, she was there to promote ExWHYZ's upcoming concert in the Budokan

FpBT5XqaQAMAt4R






the WACK members were watching the show





they used "STAY WITH Me" as the background song, the show aired on TBS which is one of Japan's largest TV stations, at least some hundreds of thousands of people watched the show, depending of the re runs maybe even millions? in any case Mikina is getting lots of positive comments from people that watched her for the first time, both Mikina and the song were trending on J twitter

I can't imagine a world where BiSH isn't a thing anymore.


Honestly, at this point, I am satisfied with what they released. Just sad that they are going away tbh.
