Kuro chan is going to reveal his favorite Mameshiba no taigun member? :doge:

but is not hard to guess who it is... Miyuki, she is the only member that doesn't looks at him with disgust

Forgot to share this here when I finally rendered the recording last night, BiS3 performing "TOUCH ME" that was an unnamed song before the live performance, hidden on the B-Side of the Imitation Sensation cassette (and possibly the new song coming in the best-of album PROPAGANDA).

Here's a fan transcribing the song just about 3 months ago and trying to guess the song name:

nice, i'm glad they are adding more songs (if i recall there are two versions, right?), BiS pace is really amazing, i'm pretty sure they are the wack group with the most recorded songs in the past 12 months

also, did they stream the concert? i'm out the loop but it would really cool it they add the choice of paying to watch the live streams

and i can't wait for the poll/vote for propaganda i mean is not that hard to guess which are going to make it
but i really want to know which song is the fan favorite :sanapray:

sounds good! i wasn't sure if there was going to be a mv for the song so i'm glad that i avoided the spoilers from their live stream
btw this is going to be BiSH's 3rd/4th mv with the members using guns :fab:

Yeah, it does sound great. I like these type of "hyper" sounds of BiSH more, although I like their melodic ones too but I am weak against "hyper". Not sure if I made any sense here. :doge:

Yeah, I'm actually glad that they still have "old" songs being unveiled to the mass public since the cassette sold out so quickly hahah.

also, did they stream the concert? i'm out the loop but it would really cool it they add the choice of paying to watch the live streams

Yep! They performed twice in a day, first was exclusive to just the livehouse audience and the second one was for the hall audience and the livestream.

I think this was the first proper WACK live stream that allowed default payments from overseas, no need to put in a placeholder Japanese address and katakana names. I was just really glad that they didn't decide to do it on NicoNico and instead used PIA which is way smoother and higher quality.

and i can't wait for the poll/vote for propaganda i mean is not that hard to guess which are going to make it

I'm still hoping that FUCKiNG OUT stays in the top 10 for the final results, but I have my doubts

It's been forever since I updated the thread so I'm going to change the title. I'm thinking of making a new poll as well.

in all fairness Pan luna stated that she didn't get along with Uruuru until they started living together, she didn't say much about Yumeka either

i think there is the fact that she and Yuina were friends since BiS while prior to CL she didn't have any connection to the others 2, so it sucks that this happened when the members just started getting close,

but i'm not too worried about what's next for them, worse case scenario they leave and join other company, if that happens they should try joining Dearstage, who seeing how Mew and Hana are doing, really seem to love the ex BiS2 members

I think Pan would be better off going solo at this point. WACK doesn't really have any solo artists except Kamiya, so it wouldn't hurt to have another one.

Hanako / Muropanako is going to release a new single on October 28th

her first album on November 24th (digital version the 25th)

and first live concert on January 30th

she is also going to do a 10 hours live stream on October 24th

i don't know which is the connection here but a group released a MV about Aya

also she started a Youtube channel, here she is reviewing Gummy candies

Has Muropanako given any clues as to what she'll be doing for 10 hrs?

Finally, some regular content from Aya!

I know Kaede isn't Kuro-chan's favorite since she rejected his affections on Monster Idol, lol.

Seems like most of the WACK groups will be streaming their live performances on PIA in the upcoming month!

BiS and EMPiRE seems to be the only two that have an overseas link to buy your tickets though. Which might not be a coincidence since the venues they're both performing in are the same just on different days/times.

i agree!

while is nice when they release stuff life Orchestra or Hide the blue, it's their crazier songs that age better
i think that with a few exceptions almost all of my favorite BiSH songs are their hardest/loudest ones
in the CM there is a part with lyrics :wherearethelies:

i guess i could go watch their live stream... but i think i can wait a few days for the mv

also all this seems to be in part thanks to Playstation

in 2017 Aina collaborated for a song announcing their line up

in 2018 Stereo Future was the OP song for the game God eater 3

and Call of Duty has a semi exclusivity deal with Playstation

'PlayStation is the new home of Call of Duty,' says PlayStation CEO on exclusive deal

so they are probably going to keep getting work for Playstation games :sanapray:

is that the one that Watanabe sold in an Ebay like store or the one where the only clue was "is out there in the internet"? :doge:

but i really hate when they do that stuff, specially with editions that come in limited numbers, for example i recall that there is a nice instrumental version of Orchestra (they usually have it as bgm in the camp final day) but i don't think is in any of BiSH mainstream releases

Yep! They performed twice in a day, first was exclusive to just the livehouse audience and the second one was for the hall audience and the livestream.

that's great, why aren't they promoting that? Watanabe knows pretty well that they are tons of non Japanese fans out there

but what i really wish is that all of wack dvd/blu ray movies and concerts were added to a streaming service (any would do) since Watanabe says he wants to expand overseas... maybe one day

I'm still hoping that FUCKiNG OUT stays in the top 10 for the final results, but I have my doubts

it can get in but i think that for most songs is also going to depend on the type of vote... which if i recall they haven't announced how is going to be

i just hope the results are ranked by the tracklist #1 = most voted, #2 = 2nd most voted etc, etc since i really want to know which song is the fan favorite

that said i think the one with the most votes is going to be

either どうやらゾンビのおでまし- 無修正 ("zombies" or whatever, i always forget the name)

or DEAD OR A LiME

while their debut is maybe more iconic i think DOAL represents gen3 better

maybe favorite group?
~~also adding Mameshiba name to the title~~ nevermind, i just noticed the title
though it does hurts seeing Gang Parade name missing :tears:

I think Pan would be better off going solo at this point. WACK doesn't really have any solo artists except Kamiya, so it wouldn't hurt to have another one.

if i recall there was talk about Aya becoming a solo artist within wack, i think it was during her final camp but i really have trouble picturing a true solo, for example Ayuni did it... but with a band and even Aina solo songs always feature another artists

Has Muropanako given any clues as to what she'll be doing for 10 hrs?

Finally, some regular content from Aya!

not yet but knowing her it could literally be anything :doge:

I know Kaede isn't Kuro-chan's favorite since she rejected his affections on Monster Idol, lol.

i knew Kaede was a smart girl :heartpar:

i only watched the first 2 eps, did any of the Mameshiba members play along with him?

hnah:

also being Kuro chan Oshi... i wonder how the members are going to feel about that

Stan BiSH · Oct 23, 2020

New ep, Miyuki says she always wanted to know how it is to be inside a soap bubble so the others member help her accomplish her dream

Eyup, I actually liked how a lot of the WACK fans started hunting down for clues together on Twitter during the two guerrilla sales for BiS.

I'm remember looking for the WACK is FXXK v2 single with Gozeela replacing Pour Lui but it sold out so quickly that I swear it was just a hoax lol.

Yeah, the official BiS page just sent a link to their site (which is pretty normal for them), but what I found funny was Neo was the only one who mentioned overseas fans who don't want to use the japanese payment can buy the tickets as well hahah.

My bet is on STUPiD since it's the most popular out of their whole discog right now. Also considering that it's the first song that got revealed and that it's the most played BiS3 song on the radio, I honestly wouldn't be surprised.

But yeah I don't think they mentioned how the album will be structured, I'm just glad all of WACK is starting it's activities again with online events like these that still include fans who aren't in Japan(or just for the worry of COVID) and steam rolling out online/live performances at rather big venues too.

To commemorate their 1 year anniversary, Mameshiba will release their first photobook on Dec. 19th.

same day as their first anniversary!

also are these pictures from the photobook? i recall they popped around some weeks ago but i couldn't find a source, it would be weird it they leaked so early

Stan BiSH · Oct 24, 2020

Mameshiba no taigun also announced their 1st major album, is going to be released on January 20 of 2021

also they held their first tour concert!

natalie.mu wrote a review of the show

natalie.mu

also both Aina and Atsuko guested on the show (they did a routine with Kuro chan)

Aina doing who hell knows what to Kuro chan

the BiSH members are always so supportive of the other groups :heartpar:

Quixoticed · Oct 25, 2020

Nayu will be on an indefinite hiatus due to her year-long injuries:

She's had those injuries since the audition last year apparently. She was gonna quit WACK but when she went to talk to Watanabe he told her to take a hiatus, where she can return as Nayu, instead of just quitting altogether. Hopefully she recovers quick

Final voting results are out for PROPAGANDA:

The rankings actually caught me off guard lol, but fair enough since the last two tweets from the girls were talking about CURTAiN CALL and FUCKiNG OUT and that's probably why they got pushed upwards from the bottom.

The new song is titled "HiDE iN SEW" and not "TOUCH ME" that was performed just a week ago. I wonder if TOUCH ME will remain as a cassette exclusive
