A press conference to announce the outline of "PRODUCE 101 JAPAN THE GIRLS" was held in Tokyo on the 26th, where the 95 trainees were unveiled and introduced.

During the photo shoot, the trainees posed in the "LEAP HIGH" pose and led by trainer Rino Nakasone, performed a verse from the song "LEAP HIGH ~Your dreams transcend time~. Nako Yabuki, the official ambassador who came to cheer them on, looked at the trainees and smiled, saying, "I can feel their sparkle.

　She then told the trainees, "Don't give up until the end. I also started from F class and worked hard because I thought it was a waste of time to be discouraged. I believe that the results are only as good as the work you put in, so I hope you will give it everything you can until the end. I think you have already done your best, so I hope you will be glad that you did it," he said.

　PRODUCE 101 JAPAN THE GIRLS" is the third installment of the survival audition program in which national producers (viewers) decide the debut members. The theme of this year's show is "LEAP HIGH ~Your dream transcends time." This was the first girl group audition, and during the one-month audition period that began in April, the number of applicants reached approximately 14,000, the largest number ever for the "PRODUCE 101 JAPAN" series. The goal is to create a group that all generations, regardless of age or gender, can relate to and that will be loved by more and more people.

　The program will be distributed exclusively and free of charge from October 5 on "Lemino," a new video distribution service launched in April 2023 by NTT DoCoMo, the top partner of the program. The final episode will also be distributed on Lemino after its broadcast on the TBS network.

Elephant in the room.

Were there not 6 alternates to make 101 participants? The whole reason is starting with 101 people. Plus they have an F rank so no excuse.

Wow, that's quite the chop!! She has to have lost at least a foot of hair!

^I don't think that the 6 missing girls are out of the competition. Things happen. People get sick and sometimes things come up. I think we should be happy to see some some humanity and lenience in the often strict and cut-throat idol world.
(... and if they ARE gone, then I wish them the best, but all the fewer girls that Momona needs to win against. )

the official site released a press statement at the verrrrrrrry beginning that 5 of them declined to be on the show going forward and dropped out.

Thank you for your support of PRODUCE 101 JAPAN THE GIRLS.

We would like to inform you of the withdrawal of 5 trainees.

The trainees who withdrew from the program had to leave during the filming due to their individual circumstances.

Please be advised that some of them may still be seen in the video and in some of the early contents.

We would like to ask for your continued support for PRODUCE 101 JAPAN THE GIRLS and the trainees.

Kasahara Momona @ 28s. She says "I was active in a Hello! Project idol group." They are using her quote of plugging Hello! Project to promote the show. That's how you do it.

This will be toughest test for Momona. Who will sit in the #1 seat?

Looks like Kasahara Momona is dancing with a trainee partner "Kokoro". Everyone is else is split into groups and have their own outfits.
