6th Station ~Other Bands for H!P Fans~

[Mirai]

Such sad news, may she rest in peace

[Jessi]

Can I just say that with the passing of EunB and RiSe from ladies code as well as the suicide of Simone Battle from G.R.L I can't just stop thinking that if it was one of our girls I would be crying for days. Especially Morning Musume who I've basically watched grow up within the group for the past 4 years. I may not know the girls in H!P personally, but I still feel like I know them you know? To lose one of them would be like losing a friend.

[wotakubrandon]

Oh man. I can't even fathom how I'd react if an H!P member commited suicide or died or was even diagnosed with a serious illness. I was pretty shook up when Tsunku said he had cancer.

[Jessi]

Yeah I'm pretty worried for Tsunku too, but they caught it early and I have faith that hes going to be okay. I would be devastated if his illness took a bad turn

Someone on tumblr said it pretty well:

To hear that a K-pop idol died scares the shit out of me. It is just another reminder that idol’s are human and death is a possibility at any time. Cherish the moments with your idols while they are still here. Don’t cause fanwars or bash idols for no reasons because one day those idols will be gone. Enjoy the music and give them as much love as you can because you never know when it’s too late.

The death of EunB and RiSe is scaring everyone in the Kpop and Jpop fandom right now. It makes your idols mortality real. They're singers and they're dancers and they're entertainers but somehow we always forget they're human as well and have the same weaknesses as the rest of us. I think all of us are really effected by it, even if they weren't our favorite group, because we know what it would be like if it was our favorite group. The fandom is showing just how much empathy they really have and this hits VERY close to home.

I knew OF Ladies Code because I watched a few popularity videos and they always ranked in the mid-20's and I looked up all the groups I didn't know, but I didn't pay too close attention to their music (Kiss Kiss, ironically, was the first time I paid attention). Man though, I love "I'm Fine, Thank You". That song is really good.

It doesn't just go for idols, people should cherish the moments with everyone they love and care about.
Life is precious, and we never know when something will happen.

Man though, I love "I'm Fine, Thank You". That song is really good.

Man, I won't be able to listen to that for a long time without bawling. I feel kinda guilty even having their upbeat songs in my head. :(

From another thread…

Those two + Perfume, Danbara Ruru + tons of girls scattered across the ranks of indie idols pretty much makes ASH a goldmine when it comes to talent.

Man, ASH is like the Mickey Mouse Club of the 1990's.

SU-METAL's older sister, Himeka Nakamoto of Nogizaka46, makes an appearance starting at 9:40. She's also an alumnus of ASH.

12:43 that's Danbara Ruru's sister right?

if you scroll down Nakamoto has had one heck of a makeover in Nogizaka46

so it might be Sumetal then with Riho? cool

[Jessi]

WOAH Himeka and Suzuka aka Su-metal are sisters?! They look so alike!!!

Speaking of which I just got concert tickets to go see BabyMetal in NYC Nov 4. Anyone else going? Does anyone want to meet up?

Also at 19:00 OMG THEY ARE PLAYING ONE TWO THREE!

[Celedam]

so it might be Sumetal then with Riho?

We've already established that.
