How would you Protect Ano in this situation?

I would hold my larger umbrella over her huddled figure and also give her whatever snacks I had with me to help her survive this storm as comfortably as possible.

>>15118956
I wonder if we'll ever get to see it again or it's been retired for good

>>15118936
Not that guy, but have you seen her teeth? The enamel is definitely damaged on them.

Pretty new to all this, are there any good places to go for videos and pictures of these idol groups?

aidoru kowai ssu

>>15119790
Well right here is a good place to start, we have the OP that keeps a list of bigger names and their recent videos.

Twitter is an excellent source of pictures, and sometimes videos as well if you periodically search their names there.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ27mTkyBl8
>mfw when this video is reaching 50k
>mfw when all the "one more nuke" autists start to pop on my アイドル videos
>mfw Ano start to be posted on /pol/

What... what have we done ?

>>15119790
youtube and dailymotion are pretty good for finding concert videos and television appearances; although some stuff may be taken down on youtube for copyright but that doesn't happen on dailymotion as often.

>>15119092
Why is this allowed? Isn't she like 12? This is literally a K-Pop outfit.

>>15119851
I watched that idol summit show and I have to hope the staff was just making up numbers for the anonymous survey questions. The alternative is just depressing.

>>15120019
what was the survey about?

Well, it seems thqt Pascode just played Ninja Bomber at the Icon Doll Lounge event. Now I feel a bit jelly to have decided to not go there because expensive seated event .

>>15120581
Ok, now I really regret it.

>>15120300
How many have dated after becoming idols, how many have dated staff at their company, how much money they make...

>>15121143
anonymous survey ? What were the results? (and most importantly, the panel)

>>15120011
It's allowed because Yuzu is cute

>>15120011
Why shouldn't it be allowed?

I want puritans to go and stay go.

>>15121169
Tons of girls, it was like 3 members per group: Dempagumi, Passport, Super Girls, Cheeky Parade, GEM, Babyraids, drop, 9nine, Yurumeumo, Kamiyado, Lovely Doll, Fudanjuku, LinQ, Bandojanaimon, Lyrical School, Osaka Shunkashuutou, Afilia Saga, Through Skills, Sanmyu, Ciaobella, and a couple of random HP girls.

There were supposed to be 70 but the number actually in the studio seemed to fluctuate.

Had a boyfriend while being an idol 39
Heard about someone dating management 17
Heard about someone present here dating management 9
Satisfied with their income 21
Have 100man saved 12
Have 500man saved 1
Wear the same underwear for 2 days 25
Wear the same underwear for 3 days 5
Smokers 0
Have farted on stage 32
Have farted during this show 6

And Chiffon said she works a regular day job as a dental assistant, and everybody thought the one rich idol was Chisato for C-ute.

>>15121534
Autocorrect got me a few times there

>>15121534
>Wear the same underwear for 3 days 5
lewd

>>15121534
Well thanks for the infos. I'm not that shocked by the answers, as long as the survey results stay anonimized the show must and will go on.

(Well the only part that can make me sad is the question of the income, but that was predictible.)

Also need more trivia, especially about ゆるめるモ and Chiffon please.

>>15121621
It wasn't entirely anonymous, they showed some girls answers because they offered reasoning for the given topic since it's a panel discussion.

Haruka from drop was the only one vehemently against idols dating, meanwhile the other drop girls admitted to doing it in the past.

>>15121324
I want to fap to her but I don't want to go to jail.

>>15120011
Well like 14-15, which is still close to 12 but also far enough from it.

It's nothing compared some of the other alt idols have done when they were younger.

>>15121324

>>15122237
I don't think there's a law against you fapping, anon.

>>15122237
THIS IS THE YUZU-FAPPING POLICE, PUT YOUR HANDS UP!

>>15120011
Sometimes I wonder if it was her choice.

The other two girls were dressed normally for idols around that time, so I doubt that their management was like "So! How do you feel about being the one in the group that shows off her body?", maybe it was her who wanted to show that 10/10 belly.


and then I'm guessing the outfit was retired exactly because more than a few people shared your reaction.

>>15122532
Puritans ruin everything.

>>15122616
Her belly was too good for this world

Watched most of that idol summit show last night. Either Ano is a godlike method actor, or she's a sperg. She was fidgeting and sperging out in the background the entire time.

>>15124533
Well, "doing weirds things in the background" pretty much sum up her character, even during lives. However if you watch older interview (circa 2014) she definitly seems to be the shy type but she was less "hardcore" in her behavior (it is also the case during the "meet and greet" at the end of lives) so my opinion is that it is a combination of both.

(Also do you have a link to the full video?)

>>15124583
There's a file on Hello!Online. It's pretty bad quality even though it's 720p, but it's better than nothing.

>>15123194
The belly itself is good and all, but it's really the belly in combination with the stockings, bit of bare leg, and tiny shorts that makes it great. hnng

>>15124626
I like her personality above all, she might not be the lead singer but she's definitely the alpha of the group

younapi looks so different here.

>>15125997
No electro twintails, No life.

(Man, I may repeat myself but these costumes were so cute)

>>15128509
I want Younapi to spit on me like the subhuman scum I am!

>>15128381
ew

I want Yuzu to kick me on the floor, ask me if I'm stupid and call me a cockroach

>>15129293
I can't see Yuzu doing any of that in a serious manner

>>15128811
I want Younapi to keep me locked in her apartment and dress me up in frilly pink clothes.

>>15129315
I hope that they've stored those booty shorts away in a museum or something.

She does seem like the tsundere type though, especially in their Riot Zone song.

I've been out of the J-core loop for years now, but what the fuck is that fucking AKIRADEATH?
Please tell me that's AKIRADEATH.

>>15129365
Kanzaki Bucho aka DJ Akira aka Kanzaki Akira aka AKIRADEATH


It's absolutely him senpai.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlw4_Olu7Y0

I got into j-core a few years ago as well, and yeah it's hard to think that it's the same guy, but good for him for getting into the idol world and mixing it up. Akiradeath is still active as well but both him and CoAkira are doing their own things as their main gig.

>>15129390
That's awesome. I just went through a few of their songs and they have my full support.
I couldn't get into BBM and Ladybaby aside from their most popular songs but I feel like I can actually buy a whole album from Death Rabbits. Sasuga Akira-senpai.

I want to eat Ano's regurgitated throw up after she's done purging!

>>15129451
Awesome. They have an album out already, with a few extra singles, and another upcoming one in june or july.

It's really interesting to hear/see their evolution.

This was their first single, nearly three years ago.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7yatiyOwPc

and these two most recent tracks as well that third most recent one.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AzCKIUe6w8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqwDnEB1Pco

People often see Death Rabbits as a Babymetal imitator but they're doing their own hardcore-inspired thing and it's not like Babymetal invented rock/metal-idol either.

I want Rei to stab me and then put out her cigarettes in my bleeding wounds!

>>15129492
Idol Star Wars is still one of my favorite Death Rabbits songs, especially the choreography. The "combat deployment" song that comes before it is a neat intro too.

Are there any idol groups that make relaxed/chill/comfy music? Something that's nice in the background while reading.

plz respond

>>15129564
As said earlier, Oyasumi Hologram may be pretty comfy to listen. And then you see them live...

>>15129535
Like that manlet could do anything.

Anyone know idol groups that specialize in jazz?

>>15129988
Especia has some pretty jazzy songs.

Does Yurumerumo ever have really long sets that pushes the girls endurance? I know AAA idol groups rofl have larger catalogues and those girls get really sweaty after their sets. Is that a thing with alt groups? Are there pictures of Ano being really sweaty?

>>15130071

Is the new Dempagumi album out yet, I only heard like 1 song from it so I'm excited. I also dont know how "alt" they're considered anymore but I assume some ppl here are from the old Dempagumi threads

This. I did not expect to end up with Kanamiru's spit in my mouth when I first went to see them. I'm not complaining though.

Hm? She drank water from a bottle and spat it at us. My mouth was open. It happens.

If being drenched in idol spit sounds appealing to you, I highly recommend seeing them. Beruha are also good for this.

(It's also pretty refreshing and useful for your survival!)

if I work hard enough, do you think Ano will one day spit on me, anons?

If you are a good anon, you may have a chance to carry her during crowd surfing, while she shout on her mic near to your ear.

>>15132935
Ganbare, anon! May you one day become you're waifu's human tissue.

>>15132935
How dangerous do you think Ano's spit is? I'm sure it's incredibly acidic, her awful diet and bulimia both concocting together to create a poison similar to a spider or reptile. I bet it would melt clean through your flesh just like a Brown Recluse's bite.

>http://natalie.mu/music/news/185196
Well, seems that Mone and Chibo are graduating from ゆるめるも！ and that Chibo is being transfered to Let's Poko Poko.

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

At least I will be able to attend to the graduation lives.

>>15133753
>tfw you'll never see all 6 live
Why even live.

>>15133795
They''ll not even be six for the TIF. Fuck, I was so pumped up by the announcement of the two man live with Passcode and then this...

>>15133810
Maybe the personalities of the other members were just too much, since they were probably the most normal members. We've already had a bunch of member additions in the past, I wonder if they'll add a new member soon.
>The new You'll Melt More!

does anyone else like 虹のコンキスタドール ? I'm kinda obsessed with them lately

>>15133826
Well I'm not basis my hypothesis on anything concrete, but for Mone maybe it has something to do with the family problems/mass tweet deletion episodz of last month. Or maybe three years in the band start to be a lot.

For Chibo I"m more circonspect given that she seems.to be transfered to boost Let's Poko Poko . Which need it given the fact that when I saw them live they were still a bit raw. The fact that she seems to be less popular than the 4 others (not sure for Kecchon) may also have play a role.

But that s a fucking shame given how much the 6 of them seemed to enjou themselves during lives.

Let s do our best to support them during these two months anon!

tfw

>This video contains content from PONYCANYON. It is not available in your country.

>>15133753
It's probably pretty discouraging for the other members to see how rapidly Ano became multitudes more popular than the other members of the group. (I wonder what the Kanna Hashimoto's group is like, there has to be some major resentment there.) They've also slowly ramped up the extremity of their lives, probably some lack of enjoyment there also.

>>15133899
Did you see Chibo after their one-man live? She cried during the encore because she was so happy, so I doubt she chose to leave.

>>15133867
They're like a different version of Ebichu with more sex appeal.

>>15133964
Plus the fact that's she's not stopping being an idol but is transfered to Let's Poko Poko, that is produced by the same team but has not the popularity or (at least for now) the level of the main group.

That's why I was more suprised by this announcement than by Mone's graduation.

>>15133193
thank you!

>>15133753
I guess Chibo going to Poko Poko makes sense. They obviously wouldn't send one of the most popular members over there, so it was either her or Kechon and when it comes to leading a group of new idols, Chibo seems to be the better choice.

Who TIF 2016 /jp/ meetup here?

>>15135209
As I'll be around here at least until September, I may join. Even if it may be impossible to devise a common live schedule given the sheer number of band involved.

>>15134706
Usually Japanese dempa fans won't upload, so whenever an overseas fan gets a copy a day or two later. Mine should be here Friday.

>>15135209
I can only attend vicariously through you anon

>>15135209
I'll be there, but I already have plans to meet up with some non-gaijin Japanese friends. Will you be with any cute Japanese girls? Literally the only reason I'd offer an invite.

I'll be around for Yurumerumo even though my favourite member won't be there anymore. :<

>>15135536
>Will you be with any cute Japanese girls?
As in non-idol girls? I'll be with a gaijin and a couple of Japanese friends. There might be a girl with us but to be honest I don't see many cute girls at idol lives who aren't on stage.

Are you one of them onna wota wota or something?

Likewise, but an idol event would be an odd place to do it. Especially if you're looking for cute ones.

Also, we're not supposed to admit to being girldating riajuu on /jp/. It's in the rules or something.

>>15136857
Have you been to TIF before? Plenty of cute girls attend.

>>15136761
She casually references it during their lives
Fun fact: Their encore chant is "En-co-re Nyaa"

>>15137063
Female idol fans are generally 4/10 in my experience but there are exceptions. It depends on the group I guess. Banmon have some cute fans. Beruha and Yurumerumo not so much.

I wouldn't date an onna wota in any case.

Well this happened

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6UZFkrv9-E

new Dempagumi albums alright, none of the songs we haven't already heard aren't particular interesting imo apart from きっと、きっとね。 which is a belter.
Otsukare summer or Za To The Future are probably best track

>>15149966
I liked アンサンブルは手のひらに, but I do agree that Otsukare may be one of the best songs on their, that or STARットしちゃうぜ春だしね.

>>15149900
I fucking hate Americans.

>>15149900
baka senpai.


Not to turn this into a contest or anything, but Death Rabbits are more authentic than them, at least when it comes to interviews and social media and everything.

They have twitter and ameblo and Vine and a radio show and a streaming show, and it's not like the girls and Akira even bother with the whole Death Rabbits Army things when they're offstage, unlike Babymetal and the whole god fox and "no we totally love metal music for real and it's not just our management that makes us say that in interviews to please Westerners" thing.

>>15150611
Well, as I feel discomfort while watching any "X react to Y" video, I will not reproch them this interview.

But as you say, difference of popularity (hard to do a meet and greet after an event like Wembley" and Koba maintaining a scrit control over their image (However I think they're genuily starting to love metal now, we're past the "Yui love Cannibal Corpses" step).

I wonder how their image was managed when they were a subunit of Sakura Gakuin, I think they did sign at this Singapore anicon.

(But yeah, Bucho is a bro' that even seems to be appreciated by a lot of other idols, from what I heard/asked)

Is Younapi from an incredibly rich family or something? How does she afford all of her clothing? They're obviously not making any money if Chiffon is working as a dental assistant.

Do you think she'd be interested in owning a slave? I'm a pathetic loser with no future, and I'm tired of working deadend retail jobs. She can even kill me if she wants!

>>15150724
>I will not reproch them

I don't either because it it's not them, it's Koba. They're just doing their jobs as idols at the end of the day.

He seems more concerned with getting "Metal Points" from the metal community by having them name-drop Metallica or Cannibal Corpse or BMTH in interviews or to collaborate with Dragonforce, than he is concerned with promoting Japanese metal.


He's also extremely aversive towards idols, but the fact that he controls their image and their words and what sort of questions they get asked in interviews and gives them the Fox God "get out of any tricky questions" free pass gives them all of the negative traits of idols without really the positive ones. There's also no way that they love metal, absolutely no way, not in my humble opinion.

Like you said, popularity probably has quite a bit to do with that distance between them and their fans, but Koba needs to make up his mind. If they're a metal band then he needs to stop managing them like an ultra-idol group with all the scripted answers and social media blackout.


Even their twitter account is this weird sterile thing that only serves to tweet concert dates & ticket links, and retweet articles & videos about themselves.

Hopefully their management can reach that level of self-awareness and realize that metal acts don't act like they do, even idols don't act like that for the most part.

>>15150176

queen of pop

>>15150845
But isn't that ironic how Koba hates idols and yet Babymetals give off image of hardcore orthodox idols without even a slight sense of sincerity?

It always annoyed me how some fags from reddit insist that they are not idols because they play serious metal for serious westerners such as themselves or that because they have backing band then they are not idols either, it's not like it somehow unique feature to only or anything.

>>15150845
As you said, it's obvious that Koba is putting a lock over every public apparition, I guess the fact that they were not prepared to such a popularity may explain his frilosity (even if the situation is like this since more than two years), and the fact that they're sort of hiding the "idol" part (because it will not look metal enough).

Well, it has been mentioned in one of the first thread, but I would have dreamed of a joined live with other "metalish" idol bands like Passcode or Guso drop, even if the sheer difference of popularity basically make it impossible.

>>15150891
Given that it seems that a lot of idols "rent" the service of a live band for "big" lives, it's a bit stupid yes .


Also, the fruitpochette MV made by Shiori only reached 800 views, it make me sad:

>>15150891
They are newfags to Japanese pop music, ignore them

>>15150846
Yankee go home!

>>15150891
>>15150912

Exactly, they're like... reverse.... ironic... meta-idols now.


The social media (or lack thereof) is really what frustrates me the most. Look at virtually every single group that gets talk about here and their members have their own unique twitter accounts, even underage kids like Rei.

Actually Death Rabbits' girls dont have twitter but they make up for it with their blog entries and radio & streams, and their twitter page still posts candid pictures and videos.

I remember Babymetal even had some sort of online video vlogs of sorts where they were allowed to more or less talk freely, but even that was retired by their management. I just don't get it..

>>15150912
This actually makes me sad, I'd love to see a colab concert like that.

I wish Koba wasn't such a control freak. Or at least go more relaxed/fun route where you could the girls more freedom to be cute girls learning about metal and then becoming hardcore or something, just give it more fun narrative for interviews and such.

Actually, the explosion in popularity in the west made me dislike babymetal (not the girls, but management side of things). Or maybe I'm just hipstering as in "now it's popular, so it sucks".

Well, at least I can say I saw them before they "sold out to the west" and now I can stop being their fan.

>>15148111
Oh, wow. So you gave yourself shit taste until you saw her live and had to accept the fact that you are a gaijin moron. Cool story bro. Hope she kicked you in the nuts.

>>15150972
i saw them at budokan

>>15150991
I'm mad jelly. It's my favorite and I've only seen it on bluray.

>>15150982
More "don't have time to bother listening lol", but yes, metaphoricaly, she did.

>>15148111
I've never bothered to check out any of KOTO's stuff even though she's posted here all the time. That was great.

Truly the embarrassment of idols and metal.

>>15151531
Since this post I have downloaded and listened to the album. I'm pretty upset at myself for ignoring her for so long.

>>15151739
Check out Recoride

I can't stand how loud and obnoxious Babymetal's music is, so I've never even attempted to follow them, but they're so obviously fake. You'd have to be a retard to think the girls actually care about Metal music or know anything about it.

I thought Metal fans were super elitist, I don't understand how something as manufactured and phony as Babymetal can be popular amongst Metal fans. It honestly seems like Idol fans are the ones that have more of an issue with how fake they are.

>>15152209
They enjoy performing their music; you have to be autistic as fuck to think otherwise.

> I thought Metal fans were super elitist, I don't understand how something as manufactured and phony
Do you think most metal bands really care about raping babies, worshiping, Satan or running around in a forest with plastic swords? It's all an act.

>>15152209

>mad at idol group for being fake

oh, so you mean the retarded foreign fans that don't know much about the idol industry?

To be honnest, they were pretty good and really fun to watch

fuck off with your gay shit m8, only true idols here

http://youtu.be/zZ9sRRpgioY
Idol? I was searching on YouTube for Oyasumi hologram and this came in to my eyes

Anyone know where I can ask about finding a specific song by an idol group I can't remember? /r/ is shit and fuck leddit. I only remember specifics from the video, and that it was available on YouTube until it either got removed or blocked by country. I remember how the song goes but not enough to help by any means

>>15153525
This thread is probably one of the best places to ask.

>>15152209
They have scripted answers to some interview questions, but that doesn't negate their personality and talent.

>>15153552
It was a live performance, and all the girls were wearing school things. Not school girl outfits, but backpacks and elementary school looking things. I think there were between 5 and 7 girls.

The performance seemed to be on live TV and not on a big stage.

>>15152340
not him, but it's the fact that their management makes them stay away from idol festivals and idol culture and just overall pretend that they're not idols at all.

>>15152209
Most metal fans don't care about them, some of them actually hate them. What's more is that Babymetal fans aren't typically idols fans either. Babymetal tends to be both their first and only idol group and their first metal act.

>>15152256
their music sure, but there's no way that they enjoy metal.

>>15152209
I love silly shit like Manowar and 80's, BABYMETAL is not that different to me.

I don't know if self-irony is a proper word in English, but it's something taken for granted where I come from.

>>15154917
this slut really needs to cover her navel

>>15154957
are rook shame to me

>>15155100
Bucho lurks 2chan and he probably read all the comments about her outfit, so yeah they did change her outfit to be belly-free. RIP.

>>15156216
RIP headphone users 30 seconds in.

I wonder if she knows that she's reached legendary meme status

>>15156282
Well, I sort of wanted to ask her if she was aware of her new "popularity" among western fans, but chekki time was over before I got the occasion to use my second ticket.

>>15155100

today was a good day, thank you

>>15156352
um, great?

>>15157159
Good to hear senpai, but I have to pace myself with them since their supply is limited.

Once I get their DVDs I'll be sitting on a goldmine

>>15148111
Wow, this is really a great song. Thanks for introducing this to me anon

I didn't expect underboob from my favorite girl when i downloaded this

>>15157561

>>15157569

>>15156216
I don't mind her acting like a retard but the least she could do is stop talking like a fucking 3 year old.

Imagine Younapi stepping on your face with these shoes, please punish me Younapi!

She seems to nice to punish anyone seriously.

>>15156216
i want color in coloring books and play toy trains with Ano! then i want her to sit on my face!

>>15158708
Where can I get one of those hoodies?

>>15158409
I'm not so sure about that. Look how her eyes say "your face: here" while she's poiting at her foot.

>>15158708
I want Ano to stab me repeatedly in the chest until I'm dead! It's the perfect ending for human waste like me!

>you will never protect Ano by being her autistic carer and hold her hand while you take her places, and have a platonic relationship but find out that she's so autistic that she's misinterpreting your acts as love and she starts to develop romantic feelings for you and you pretend you don't notice, but occasionally humor this by insisting she sit on your face

>>15159685
thats the spirit, anon! are you the same anon who wants Younapi to step on them because i can get behind that

>>15159685
I believe you are very valuable and wonderful person, Anonymous.

Why do gaijins always flock to groups that have really shitty music?

>>15159753
this is a major blogpost, sorry,, but I'm definitely not. I keep quitting all of my part-time jobs, and I don't know how to drive a car even though I'm 25 years old. I'm a pathetic leech that has wasted my life playing MMOs and doing nothing, and instead of doing something worthwhile like learning how to program and making my own shitty indie game (I almost killed myself when I found out Evaxephon, the literal biggest retard from /v/ back in the day, is currently living the good life off of some shitty unity game with stolen assets he made called Yandere Simulator) I've wasted all my time learning Japanese, and I'm not even anywhere close to being fluent. If I spent all of my time doing literally anything I could have a real job right now. Like I could have learned an easier roman based language even, or learned an instrument, or how to draw, or fucking anything.

>>15159739
Yes, I want Younapi to gouge out my eyeballs with her feet and then have Ano slit my throat. What a great way to die it would be.

>>15159973
Go to Japan in a working holiday, basically any retard that can lie a little can obtain one.

Then, you'll be able to live exactly the same life, except you'll spend your money on idols live instead of steam cards.

>>15160249

>>15159973
As a retard who basically did this >>15160020 and turned it into a more longterm thing, I can confirm that this is a good idea. I recommend freelance English teaching if you can self-market and handle the pressure as you can then make a decent living and stay longterm without relying on an employer. I had a background in sales and marketing so this was easy enough for me. I'm planning on moving into a place in Chiba in a few months and staying there indefinitely. All this despite my having once been a no life NEET who spent all day shitposting on /jp/. If I can do it, so can you. Good lucky.

Also, I want Mizuho to step on me.

>>15159973
become an hero

Is there a positive correlation between these threads getting worse and an increase in the amount of posts about Babymetal and image dumping? I feel like there is.

>>15161871
No, but there is a correlation with the decline of these threads with the amount of You'll Melt More and whatever that ripoff Babymetal group is related posts.

>>15161871
Nah, it's the "no one cares" samefag who's been here for a while now and I guess only comes here to shitpost between bans

>>15162157
Go away

I remember someone in an earlier thread linking Kamiyado and I like them alot, especially 全開！神宿ワールド https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nYSmQy0Lzc I think their first album comes out either end of this month or the next.

Fuck. 少女閣下のインターナショナル is going on hiatus after 7/2. They were like the most alternative of alternative idols too.

>>15141102
Because you're a faggot.

>>15164731
They are dressed immodestly and don't cover their bodies properly. I bet they let anyone touch them when the camera is not rolling. They are whores.

I finally got around to getting the Death Rabbits' new album, it's not quite as heavy as their first one overall, but it is a better album. Two thumbs up.

Do you know where to get a digital copy?

Otherwise it's a month wait for the physical one.

There's so many gay guys in denial in this thread it's pathetic.

>>15169968
Just straight up itunes, not even Japanese itunes either just whatever localized version of whichever country you live in.

I'm also going to get the physical copy so I can get maximum audio comfy.

The fact that so many "le wrong generation" metalheads are getting so booty blasted about babymetal makes them all the more enjoyable.

Plus I believe we already have enough people in love with Younapi.
