She was on break not dead

I am not the kind of fan waiting every waking moment for her to return and complaining periodically that we haven't heard anything

So I moved on and didn't worry too much about it and boom now she's coming back!

I love her so why wouldn't I be excited?

Making room for Sayumi?

What exactly is JP Room?

I'm assuming it's an upfront thing, but I don't realy know what all those different UF*, um brands/affiliates/factions/whatever are generally about.

*Like UF create, UF works, etc. I forget which ones I've seen.

JPRoom is for the OGs, it's kinda sad having her leave the company

^^ JP Room is one of the many subsidaries of Up-Front Group. They are currently known for having some H!P OG that aren't focused on singing (Mano, Maasa, Yurina) or doesn't rely too much on that MM OG sticker they have (Mutsui.) After they graduated/left MM, both Ogawa Makoto and Fujimoto Miki were placed under JP Room instead of UFA.

Pretty Much:
UP FRONT Promotion: H!P, Michishige Sayumi, Shimizu Saki, Tokunaga Chinami, Sugaya Risako, Fukuda Kanon, Sayashi Riho, Inaba Manaka

UP FRONT Create: Nakazawa Yuko, Iida Kaori, Abe Natsumi, Yaguchi Mari, Tsuji Nozomi, Takahashi Ai, Matsuura Aya, Satoda Mai, LoVendoR, UUG, Ciao Bella Cinquetti, Kikkawa Yuu, PINK CRES

I thought Mitsui was still H!P?

She is, but she's just not under UFP.
