Wait, there's ALWAYS a KSS audition site up? Like...all year round, girls can audition for UF/KSS, and not just when there's an announcement or something?

I believe so. I haven't been keeping constant tabs on it or anything, but I recall going to the site a while ago and dreaming a bit lol.

What might have been…



Y'know, watching this, I'm actually a bit verklempt at what happened. I never really felt it — the gut-punch — before now.

Thank you for the heads up then, cause I'm not even going to watch it. Uta's charm has been 90% replaced by Oozeki's in my mind and I'd like to keep it that way!

This week's CG POKEMO Q&A. Mai's answer

Oh Mai Gosh

Rough translation:
"Q: If you could have an H!P member turn into an animal and have them as your pet, what would they turn into and who would it be?"
Mai: "I want to have a Shimamura Uta-chan cat, because she's kind/gentle but very interesting."
