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

[Stan BiSH]

Aina was featured in FORBES's "Forbes JAPAN 30 UNDER 30 2023"



also she unveiled the cover for her new album『DEBUT』/ Kyrie

and she is going to appear on the VMAJ

 

[Stan BiSH]

MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN restarted MAMESHiBA TV





they were trying to do the choreography of their songs while blindfolded

-

Aina posted this video



what's interesting is that the dance studio is located on Los Angeles, wonder what's she doing in the US, vacations, work?

also seems Aina is going to perform in the VMAJ



ano is going to be there too, both BiSH and ano (as a member of You'll Melt More!) started their careers around the same time and both are considered to be the most popular vocalist in the alternative idol scene, despite that they never really have met each other, maybe this is the chance?

BiTE A SHOCK posted a performance of BiSH's Rhythm

【BiTE A SHOCK】 「リズム」［Why don't you BiTE?? at 東京国際フォーラム ホールC］​

i believe this is from BiTE A SHOCK's debut showcase back in August, i still don't understand why the didn't stream this on their Youtube channel specially since they performed a handful of BiSH songs, i think people would had been more accepting on them if this was their first look at the group

 

[Stan BiSH]

Lingling MISATO ANDO is on the cover of Gekkan WACK



i was wondering what was going to happen with the covers of the ex BiSH members that left the company (after all the magazine has WACK on the name) but i guess they are going to be featured without issues

also seems that this month they have a feature with some of the WACK members as students

i recall now posted a picture in an uniform but she didn't gave any context, so this was what they were recording



i believe i saw pictures of the GANG PARADE members in uniforms too but in their case since they are cosplaying all the time i didn't thought it was related to anything

 

[Stan BiSH]

Momoko started a sub unit with Manami, they are called "momo" and they just released their first song






cool, i honestly didn't expected her to release any music post-BiSH, i thought that the members that stayed at WACK were the only ones interested in pursuing music careers

also it was her birthday

 

[Stan BiSH]

not bad, apparently now used to be part of the Basketball club

also lets not forgot she is the reigning finger skateboarding champion




Mayu for B.L.T




they posted this teaser for the 2nd leg of their tour


the video that plays seems to be a new MV?


Mikina

Mikina has been practicing DJing



Mikina can play:

acoustic guitar
electric guitar
drums
piano
keyboard

all of them at a good level

and now she getting good with the DJ / audio mixer, the fact that while doing her ExWHYZ activities she still manages to master all those instruments is honestly amazing, i wonder what's her family background since i recall that she has an older sis that may be part of the music industry too

 

[Stan BiSH]

so as discussed above ExWHYZ are going to release a new MV




sounds good, just like FIRST STEP seems "NOT SORRY" is going to be more on the rock side

also we got an update on Midoriko





they consulted with her doctor is she could come back to the group already and he told that not yet, for the foreseeable future they are going to continue their activities with just 5 members but they said that while she can't join them until she finishes her treatment they are going to try to include her as much as possible in their future recordings and other activities that she is able to participate

dunno about the event but if they are asking for an address doesn't that means they probably are going to ship the prize outside Japan (a cheki?)

otherwise you could try finding a fan in Japan that discretely claims the prize and send you the thing, years ago i recall seeing people pulling that off with SILENT SIREN but not idea how the fuck they did it and no idea if the PIGGS staff would buy it

 

[Stan BiSH]

BiS new uniforms








they also announced their new tour "INCREDIBLE BiS TOUR"

 

[Stan BiSH]

GANG PARADE new uniforms









(continues)

 

[Stan BiSH]

 

[Stan BiSH]

ExWHYZ's new uniforms







Maho hasn't posted hers yet

Midoriko also posted one but i don't think it's related to the other pictures since she is currently on hiatus



-

i was going to call it a slow week but from nowhere they released news and photos for ExWHYZ, BiS and GANG PARADE on the same day

 

[Stan BiSH]

ExWHYZ announced their first EP ‘HOW HIGH?’, is going to be release on October 18 and is going to include 7 songs

1. 6WHYZ
2. NOT SORRY
3. Furachina Summer
4. There's no limits

7. Shall We

[Stan BiSH]

ExWHYZ / NOT SORRY [Music Video]​

nice song
also Yuki shot someone

ignoring the old dude the people that came later i believe they are the guests artists from ExWHYZ's current tour right?

i mean the person in front is definitely Seiho


"NOT SORRY" is now available for download and streaming, is one of the 7 songs from ExWHYZ upcoming EP "HOW HIGH?"

 

[Stan BiSH]

LiVS, the group created by Watanabe's protegee announced that to "help" BiSH fans get over the loss of the group they are offering a free concert with the only condition that they go to the venue wearing WACK merchandise



LiVS aren't part of WACK but instead they are from the subsidiary label "ALLINc" and the girl running the company, Suzuki, is being funded by Watanabe

now, is she using BiSH to bring attention to her group?

sure

but that's the right choice so i can't get mad, a much better question is why BiTE A SHOCK aren't the ones doing this kind of promotion, since they decided to take a different route than BiSH there is a chance for LiVS to fill that gap, obviously they are going to need much more than just being a 6 member girl group with a BiSH-like style and sound, but why not?




the founder of ALLINc Suzuki

i believe she is also a member on the group

 

[Stan BiSH]

Sushio fan art













GP fans are so lucky that one of Gainax / Trigger main character designers is such a huge fan, would love to see some fan art of the GP members doing the Gainax pose

 

[Rez]

This song is a bop and Aina looking absolutely beautiful in it
"The film, directed by the brilliant Higashiichi Atsunori, depicts the sad and strange story of a scientist (played by Hotei) and an android (played by Aina the End) who entrust their dreams for the future to an android in a spectacular science fiction rock opera. Aina the End's stunning performance and presence, along with Hotei's silhouette, are stylishly and densely presented in this music video, which is sure to be talked about as a masterpiece that will remain in the history of music videos."

 

[Stan BiSH]

MAMESHiBA NO TAiGUN did a livestream, the members couldn't go home until they ate all the chilli death sauce, they could put it on any of the food here




they deleted the live stream after

later they announced their new single PuriPuri / Sing Along Time!, they confirmed is a double single that showcases the cute and cool sides of the group, it goes out on sale in October

also they announced their new tour




-

the most successful era of the group was the months prior and after the release of Rocket Start! / Daijoubu Sunrise, i like the idea of bringing back dual concepts for them






also isn't MAMESHiBA under a probation period? i believe that after the MUST CHANGE project Watanabe told the group something like that and how they have this year prove themselves, hopefully the fact they restarted MAMESHiBA TV and are going to release a later year single means that he thinks the group should continue

 

[Stan BiSH]

ex TONAi BOUSHO member Richi is going to appear in "TAMATAMA FESTIVAL 2023" along the rest of WACK




2 things why this is kinda interesting

• despite not being active as a singer or member of a group she is still signed to WACK
• this is going to be her first event being featured along the other members of WACK (or so she claims)

about the last one, wasn't she the host of the competition between MAMESHiBA and TONAi BOUSHO?




also about TAMATAMA Fes it seems that none of the ex BiSH member that are still part of WACK are appearing

-

BiTE A SHOCK's Hanano is going to debut in a Drama



not sure which of the BiTE A SHOCK member is Hanano, for whatever reason they haven't started individual member accounts so is hard to remember who is who

-

Ayuni D




-

another channel that has some instagram live streams from the members of ExWHYZ

 

[Stan BiSH]

we live in an Idol society

my favorite of Lingling / MISATO ANDO's works is from when she still was in BiSH, honestly don't know if i ever saved the picture but is was a drawing she did of either Aina or Momoko as an anthropomorphic rat... it was weird

more MISATO ANDO works






also she cut her hair



and she is doing a radio show
