H!P Kenshuusei Thread

If they weren't part of H!P then they wouldn't be on the website listed alongside all the other active groups.

Though UUG, Kikka, and Saaya all had "finished training" when they left H!P....but they aren't directly H!P anymore but more or less UFP now....so who knows what Fuuchan's plans are.

Hello Pro Kenshuusei collectively apart of HP and are an act, but the girls themselves aren't members of Hello Project.
Isnt that right? Like their members in training and aren't full fledged members until they debut.

[Starra]

They're not "full" members or whatever, but they're still technically part of H!P. They're signed with UF and have contracts, and they participate in some of the same things other groups do. I personally consider them H!P members, even if they're not of the same status as those who have debuted. That doesn't mean they're not H!P, though.

I mean... it's always been in their name. If the group is a part of H!P, the girls are a part of H!P.

I find it weird how many girls quit without notice, but some departures like Fuyuka's are announced. Could "finished their training" be an indirect way to say they're about to debut in some way or another? From what we know from the Great Kenshuusei Renewal, it doesn't sound like a "normal" withdrawal. She's either debuting or was let go by UFP. I hope she wasn't fired because of her health.

Isnt it more of along the lines of a combination of "we have no current plans of seeing you progress any further as a HP idol right now" and "there's nothing else we can teach you".

Aw Kaede bb ;o ; Love the sparkly outfits! But man I still dont find Ruru cute or anything

[Starra]

I hope she wasn't fired because of her health.

If anything, I'd say she'd quit because of her health rather than being fired. I don't think UF would actually fire someone because of health problems. Most likely, if health is involved, I believe he would have made her own choice. She knows her limits more than anyone else does.

EDIT:

本人の希望により研修活動を終了したことも、あわせて報告された。

Seems like it was Fuyuka's own choice to leave.

I... don't like how hashimoto shin comments that danbara ruru "overtook" fukuda asuka's voice.

We all know Ruru is awesome but I am personally very offended by how he repeatedly compares some members to 1st gen MM.

[Obsidian]

I understand people not finding Danbara conventionally cute, but I guess it makes the result all the better when people might still vote on that bias.

PS Tsunku tweeted on the result.

I think Ruru's cute, but she's not very photogenic.

Ugh, really? It was a different time and I'm sorry but 1st gen were very good for what they were. Plus, Ruru's had years of training.

(I'm super biased. Oops.)
